About fifty members and guests of
tlie Civic Club met at the home of

lecture by the Rev. Benj. F. P. Ivins
on "The Lower East Side 'of New
York. City." "
Mr. Ivins had spent three years in
Mission work in the East Side and
spoke from actual experience, which
made his talk verv interesting.
Thousands of foreigners land at
Ellis Isle every year, and those who
stay in New York City gather in dis
tricts of that great metropolis ac
cording to their nationality, and
make what are real foreign citie3
within the big city.
There is the German quarter, the
Italian, the Russian,-the Jewish, the
Chinese and even the Arab quarter
all made up entirely of their own na
tionalities. The signs of the stores,
the newspapers, the churches, the
dress, ' the customs everything is
that of the foreign people who in-t
habit the quarter. ."''!
The boundaries of these quarters
are as clearly cut as anycould be
I The people ore the very worst of the
old world. u
Mr. Ivins told how the Italian
banker mortgaged ail; the property,
and wen tlie 'time, of his poor coun
trymen, thus making them bis slaves
for life. ne told how the Hungarian
cigar manufacturers own the bouses
in which their workmen live, charge

Revival of Spelling Matches
The campai-ni for a revival of in
terest in spellinr. has met with the
hearty co-operation of all teachers,
pnrrnts, and sehocl officers in Mar
shall county.'
The enthusiastic reports received
from all of the township contests
prove that Hie movement was one in
them very hijrh rent and pay them
only $3.75 a thousand for makin?
cigars; how these ci?ars are made by
both men and women in the-awful
sench of dirty, crowded rooms and
then sent, out all over the land and
sold.
Thus are the poor and ignorant op
pressed on every hand to make im
mensely wealthy the few. But the
greatest curse is the owners of the
tenement house in which these people
live. He jrets exorbitant rent for very
small rooms into which come no
The tenement house beran after
the war of 1S12, said Mr. Ivins,
when New York City ?rew from
100,000. to nnO.OOO in less than ten
years.' 'The East Side was at that
time the fashionable quarter and the
streets there had the finest residences.
As population
poured in, this best
class of people was crowded out

the tenement house became a reality. , n,
Something has been done, but the
onlv remedy, Ir. Ivins thought, wa
to get tenement-owners who would
not sacrifice the good of the tenant
for exorbitant gain. The problem
is one of the very serious ones which
our cities have to solve.
Mr. G. E. Harris, favored the club
with two vocal solos and Mrs. Harris
gave a piano solo, both of which
were much appreciated. 'Mrs. Rea
Anderson .delighted all with bei
executions on the piano.
