In Im;i) in the United States .14 1
per cent of furm homes rtl.l per
rent of other homes ami 62.2 per
cent of all homes were rented. In
1000 the percentage in each case had
increased. In fifty cities of the Unit-
ed States in 1910 only one Spokane
Wash. had less than half its fami-
lies living in rented houses. In 39
of these cities three-fifths of the
I homes were rented; in 16 three-
fourths were rented; and one New
lork had nine-tenths or its homes
rented. Increasingly we are losing
that attachment to one spot which
has helped to make the home a stable
institution. Pride of appearance

of interest in family life hns much

family owns the home in which it

an attitude of opposition to the

moment insinuate that lfe in a rent-

organization differed from time to
ime. The modern home is simply an
evolution of the primitive home and
thin fact should be kept in mind
. when one seeks to Interpret this in-
I stitution.
: In primitive times there was little
! necessity for a home except as a
I nest for the young or a cache for
provisions. Often it was only a rough
; shelter to which the hunter brought
' the game he killed. Later came the
agricultural handicraft anil indus-
i trial periods each representing a
higher and more stable civilization
Iwith better and more permanent
i homes. Thus today we have the mod-
ern home in keeping with the evolu-
tion of civilisation.
Certain conditions have created
some very acute problems for the
modern home until it now seems that
the very foundations of this institu-
tion are endangered. From a number
'of economic factors whose influences
ido not contribute to that sturdy
permanent type of home life so char-
acteristic of the American people
'we mention two the modern apart-
' ment and the rent house. The a part -
ment is a product of modern civili-
zation and is fast becoming a fore-
1 most feature in the life of our cities
lit may be defined as any building
! rented as the home or residence of
three or more fa mi lies living inde-
l pendently of each other doing light
housekeeping usually and having a
common right in the halls stairways
and toilets. Four facts account for
the rise of the apartment: the great
drift of the people to the city short-
i age of living quarters increased liv-
ing expensei and a desire for gain.
These houses are not without their
: advantages. In fact they seem to
have become a necessity in the pres-
ent order of things. They reduce
! living expenses lessen home tasks.
and provide shelter for thousands
who otherwise might find it difficult
to get a home in the crowded cities.
Hut it's weaknesses and dangers are
apparent. It breaks up the permanent
home invades the privacy of homo
and family life anil weakens the
home influence. The cherished mem
ories the sacred influences snd tra-
ditions the shaping ideals of the old
home in which the young life is
nurtured and grows to maturity are
among the most lasting and determ-
ining influences of life. Rut these are
generated about the old family fire-
side and not in a modern apartment
with its impersonal air and public
character For two reasons the apart-
rent inhibits the home building in-
stinct and the rearing of families:
it is inconvenient to have a largi;
family housed in a very few rooms
then the general sttitude of the
apartment owner and dweller is "No
children wanted here."
Of the 3437.202 people living in
greater New York in ISOO more
than two-thirds lived in apirtments
and the percentage has risen steadily
since that time. Three-fourths of
Manhattan's population live in houses
of not less than twenty persons each
the density of the its population be-
ing 150 to the acre. In a Texas city
two apartments each to house five
hundred families are now under
construction. As the people continue
crowding to the cities the apartments
will multiply and as they multiply
the old permanent home life will pass
away.
A second factor detracting from
a permanent home life is the rent
house whether it be on the farm or
in the town. We do not say thst it
should not be. nor that it is an un-
mixed evil. The demand for labor
ihifts from plure to place influenced
by varying conditions ami teutons
and this meitria a shifting of popula-
tion. Many occupations are of such
nuture as to retiuire a rslher trans-
lent lifn of those following thum.
