M ~ FRIDAY EVENING, MARCH STUGEO HOLGE POPULAR STHLE Appeals to Many as Most At- tractive in Exterior. FINE FOR CITY OR COUNTRY Residence With Garage Attached Is Designed for the Prospective Builder Who Wants an Economical Home. By WM. A. RADFORD. Mr. William s and A‘Ivr.‘:?vrlge '!!“:lmw on all subjects pertaining to the subject of building, for the readers of this paper. On accouat of his-wide experience : Eaditor, Author and Manufacturer, he o8 O hems Subiacts: Ag e oary & Wiz X “Radtord, No. 1627 "Brairis two-cent stamp for reply. sclose The determination to build a home is not arrived at hastily; and after that object has been fixed in mind there is required on the part of a great proportion of home builders the Saving of money enough to make the first payment of such an amount that the contractor who erects the home, the lumber and material dealer who furaishes the mdteridls, and the bank- er, who many times supplies the meney, are assured that the bullder will stick to his determination. Get- ting ready to build the home requires time in many instances. After the .gite Is secured and the prospective builder bhas reached the point when be will enter into the contract for the evection of the home, then comes the time to select the design of house that 19 wanted. d Ideas of what is ideal in a home are a8 varied as taste in dress. Some build- ers would have nothing but a bunga- lew, while others would have anything but a bungalow. A great number of builders, however, have fixed upon the stucco house as the most attractive in exterior appearance and select a design for this type of house. It is to this class of prospective builders that the house shown in the accompanying fllustration will appeal. Here is a stucco house that will give the builders about the maximum amount of home for his money. It is of frame construction, with stucco ap- plied to either wooden or metal lath, 12, 1920 room, also large, 18 by 15 feet, is cone nected with it by a double-door open- ing, ahd adjoining is a good-sized kitchen, 11 by 11 feet 8 inches. The pantry off the kitchen and adjoining the entry is another good feature. The sun parlor is 9 feet 6 inches by 17 feet, an exceptionully large room of this kind. It will be noted that doors open into it from both the living and dining rooms, so’'that one end—that adjoining the dining room—may be used as a breakfast porch. The double opening into the living room gives spa- clousness to this room also. On the second floor there are three good-sized bedrooms, the bathroom and a sleeping porch. The latter is & comfort-giving feature of this design. It is located so that it has privacy, 8 thing to be desired. The bedrooms are ranged around a central hall, and the bathroom is adjacent to all the rooms. Studying designs of homes is one of the greatest pleasures, of securing a home. The American architects have combined in home designs the com- forts that the American family wants, and also have combined. these com- forts and conveniences with exterior beauty. However, what appeals to one prospective builder will not appeal to another, and by securing a large number of designs practically every individual will find just about the sort of home he has visualized as be- ing the kind he wants. To secure home-building ideas @ visit to the local architect, the lumber and material dealer, and the contrac- tor who will be asked to bid on the bullding job will be worth while. These building specialists all have available a wide range of homes, both perspec- tive view and floor plans. With these plans before them, prospective build- ers will be able to select the home that meets his requirements and can be built for the amount of money he wants to invest. But in going over these plans it will surprise anyone how much real enjoyment he will get. Home building now is popular be- cause it is the hest and practically the only means of securing a comfortable, or some one of the various sheathing materials designed for this type of home. Being rectangular in shape, it 18 the least expensive to conmstruct. But by the addition of the sun parlor at one side, and the garage at the ether, it has a well-balanced, attrac- tive appearance, enhanced by the pan- eled effect in the gable. The dimensions of this house are only 26 by 86 feet, but it requires a lot 00 feet or more wide, as the sun par- lor projects 10 feet at one side and the garage 20 feet at the other. How- ever, the garage may be located at the rear of the house, or may be smaller, as this was designed to hold two cars. The advantage of having the garage adjoining the house is that the heat- ing plant in the home may be used to warm the garage, which is well to do, as it prolongs the life of the tires and makes the machine avaflable at all times. While the home as éhown in the il- lustration is set on a brick foundation, concrete may be used. The basement extends under the whole of the house, including the sun parlor. The size of the basement provides plenty of space LIVING Roon 1501250 for the heating plant, storage of fuel and for a vegetable and fruit cellar, while by the installation of station- ary tubs much of the laundry work can be done here in both summer and winter. Floor plans that accompany the il- lustration show how conveniently the rooms have been arranged and how large they are for this size of house. The living room, 25 by 18 feet, ex- tends across the front. The dining convenient and attractive place in which to live. Rentable houses are scarce, and the person who moves now- adays is glad to get any sort of shel- ter. That is where the home builder 18 better off than the renter. e e @) BEWARE OF INEFFICIENT MEN Supposed Interpreter, Unable.to inter- pret, Fails to Save Countryman From Prison Term. A. R. Hawley, president of the Aero club, told in New York the other day an inefficiency story. “Beware of the inefficient man,” he said, “for if you have dealings with him it is you, not he, that will suffer from the ineficiency. N “A foreigner In outlandish garb, claiming to be an Armenian, came here to solicit funds last year for his compatriots. It happened that another Armenias was atrested at the time, and the first chap was asked to go to court and act as his interpreter, * “Well, he reluctantly consented to act, though the truth was that he knew no Armenian whatever. Anyhow he stalked into the courtroom, listened in grave silence to the prisoner’s passion- ate protestations of innocence, and then turned to the judge and said in a low voice: “‘Your honor, my compatriot has confessed all. He begs you, however, to be lenient for suffering Armenia’s sake.’ “The judge thanked the interpreter warmly for his services and then sen- tenced the innocent prisoner to five years at hard labor.” Monument to Vaughn. Exercises of an unusual nature were held at a recent picnic of the Cascade county, Mont., farm bureau. It was the dedication of a monument to commemorate Robert Vaughn, who, in 1868, plowed the first furrow in the county. The monument, which is made of cobblestones and is about 6 feet high, contains a brass plate inscribed: “The first plowing in Cascade county was done by Robert Vaughn in 1868 in whose memory this monument was erected in 1919 by the farm bureaw.” THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER H. W. BORING, a well-to-do Kansas farmer, says he has gained twenty pounds in weight and is in better general health than he has been in years since taking Tanlac. e — “Since Tanlac has overcome my troubles I have gained twenty pounds in weight and am in better general health than for years past,” was the straight-forward statement made a few days ago by H. W. Boring, a prominent and well-to-do farmer liv- ing at Overland Park, Kans. “During the two years I suffered I tried everything I knew of to get relief, but nothing seemed to reach my case until I tried Tanlac. My appetite was poor and my digestion was so bad I could hardly retain my food. Nothing agreed with me; in fact I was almost a confirmed dys- peptic. My whole system seemed to be out of shape. I would have pains across the small of my back so bad at times I could hardly move around. “My nerves were all unstrung and I would become up-set at the least little thing. I seldom slept well at night and, finally, became so weak and run-down that I lest weight rapid- ly. I was also troubled a great deal with catarrh and of mornings had to spend a half hour or more clearing up my head. . “This is just the condition I was in when I began taking Tanlac and it certainly has been a blessing to me. It just seemed to be made espe- cially for my case. I improved from the very first. My digestion now is perfect and regardless of what I eat I never suffer any bad after effects. “The pains across my back have entirely disappeared. The catarr.h has léft me, too, and my head is perfectly clear. Iam no longer nerv- s and rest well every night. I ave regained my lost weight and am feeling better. and stronger than I have in years.

The man wished to spit, but it was a pay-as-you-enter car and he was out of luck., He rang the bell, got up and went to the door of the car. At the next corner the car stopped. The |’ motorman opened the door for the man to get off, but he just spit and returned to his seat. All the passengers heard the motor- man say: “And still some people have got the nerve to kick on the kind of service we put out.”—Indianapolis Star. “No,” replied the esthetic person. v“’.l"hey give you a fine chance to study the expression on the star’s face.” “Maybe so, but I can’t admire even the most beautiful woman when her face looks like a full moon.” Their Differences.

In many cases the true reason is that the business performed no service which was necessary or useful to society generally. Every individual must give a useful ser- vice if he is to prosper, for society will refuse to. maintain him if he fails to be useful to society. When we find a business which has been notably prosperous over a long period of years, we may be sure that it has won its position by performing a service useful and necessary. That, in a word, explains the continued, ever-increasing success of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana.) This Company is included in the list of big business because the ideals of service Service which it holds and maintains are big. The Standard Oil Company (Indianas) is big because it recognizes the necessity of developing its sphere of usefulness to the: highest degree and of maintaining this high standard in spite of every obstacle. The success of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) proves that it is performing a useful service and that every link in its chain of achievements is delivering an added benefit to civilization and to you. is the first consideration of this organization, for it knows that by increas- ing its service to the public its earnings will automatically grow, and all will profit by its activities.
