"and the habit of eating sand (about I which I can offer no opinion) there is really nothing one can eat which is less fit to be eaten with the fingers than asparagus. It is long; it is greasy; It is loose and liable to every sort of soft yet sudden catastrophe; It Is always eaten with some sort of oily sauce; and Its nice conduct would in volve the powers of a proffesslonal Juggler, combined with some practice In climbing the greased pole. "Most things could easily be eaten I with one's fingers. . . . Only this I on tiresome, toppling vegetable I eat between my finger and thumb.

The lot on which the houses are erected is 165x212 feet. Deciding on an extension of the activities, the Octavia Hill Association studied the need close' ly and decided on this locality.

A separate corporation, known as the Philadelphia Model Homes Company, was organixed. In order to finance this latest undertaking. When the success of this venture is demonstrated the me company will carry along the work In other neighborhoods. The en tire cost, including the purchase of land and erection of the dwellings, will be $43,250.
