Construction Heqds for New High

Tune contracts for future construction in the United States toialled $3,243,486,000, an increase of. lO% over the same month last year, F. W' Dodge Corporation, con-struction news and marketing specialists, reported-July 30. Total construction,contracls for the first half of 1957 amounted to $16,958,005,000, up 5o/o lrom the comparable period last vear.

'

Thornur S. Holden, Dodge vice-chairman said, "The record to date leaves little room for doubt that the dollar volume of construction activity for the yeat 1957, as a rvhole, will exceed last year's all-time high."

Tune contracts for residential buildings amounted to $1,153,049,000, down 4/o from a year ago- The entire decline rrru. aa.o,tttted for by a decrease in contracts for one-andtwo-familv houses. itesidential building contracts for the first half of 1957 were valued at $6,483,314,W, 5% below the first half of 1956.

The number of housing units contracted for in June totalled 86,549, a drop of IZ/' compared to Ju-n-e- 1956. The number of housing units for the first half of 1957 amounted to 499,490, a decline of ll/o from the comparable.1956.Period. the'sharper decline in unit volume than in dollar value in the residential category can be counted for by the trend toward larger and more costly homes.

A Song in flly Heort

Into my heart God put a song, a A tuneful melody: At will to hear symphonic chords Or muted harmony.

But in search for worldly needs, My song has gone astray, And there is left a vain regret To torture me each day.

Perhaps some day my life will be Attuned to right or wrong; Then I shall find great happiness In my recaptured song.

When every pool in Eden was a mirror That unto Eve her dainty charms proclaimed, She went undraped without a single fear, or Thought that she had need to be ashamed.

'Twas only when she'd eaten of the apple, That found tlrat evermore she'd have to grapple With the much-debated problem of the nude.

Thereafter she devoted her attention, Her time and all her money to her clothes, And ttrat was the beginning of convention, And modesty as well, so I suppose.

Reaction's come about in fashions recent, Now the girls conceal so little from the men, It would seem that in the name ,of all that's decent, Someone ought to pass the apples round again.
