' tr By the Rev, Charles Stelzle. ‘Columbus, O., May 19.—When the three wise men from the east, riding their careening camels, followed the guiding star to Bethlehem to find Jesus so that they might bring Him their gifts of frankincense and myrrh, they did it to honor Him “who had been ‘born King of the Jews.’ They were the forerunners of count- less crusaders. and pilgrims, who, in the, ages. that followed, sought to do domage to Him who is now acknow- Iedged to be the King of the world. “The hundreds of thousands of Meth- odists and other Christians—pilgrims ofthe present day—coming from east and; west, from north and ~ south— many of them from the uttermost parts ofthe earth—in ship and train and trolley car, in iage and stage and automobile, visiting Columbus during the centenary celebration of Methodist missions.

This design is his. fourth, America's. Foremost Small | House There aro two requirements in home building, which stand out above | all others, First of all, a house must have a practical plan, and second, it must have the appearance of “livableness. A practical plan is’ one which” is suited to “easy housekeeping;” that is, with no unusued and convenient ar rooms. The real appearance of “livable- ness” is extremely hard to. obtain, and this point hes been given the greatest study, by architects of all countries. A low house, or one that appears to be low, has less formality than a stilted one, and as formality is} not a natural attribute of the average American home, it should not be found in the house itself. The house shown in the illustration is of the Dutch colonial type, the originals of which were built in north-} ern New Jersey, ut it is adaptable to almost any part of the country, and lends itself readily to the require- RUooF ments of the modern house. The low roof line gives an appearance of great: | er length and at the same time is a; type found to be the most ‘success- The house illustrated was designed with a 50x100 corner lot in mind, us- ing the lot the long way.
