Brighton is the first to lead the way. It is building a super-suburb, consist- ing of 900 houses, so planned that i there will be not more than ten to the &cre. This will allow each house a gar- den of 16 rods—or 640 feet. The suburb is to be built in an or- chard setting. Fruit trees will line roadway. There will be no walls, the gardens being divided by hedges. Fhere will-be recreation’ grounds, al- lotments and common playgrounds. The houses are to be built on modern and artistic lines, the internal arrange- 1ts . being ‘the last word in house ort. “The‘ only fly in'the ointment is the ; of Mrs. J. B.
