ee INQUIRIES RECEIVED . AT FHA OFFICE ARE PROOF OF INTEREST Several New Apartment Houses of Four-Family Type Are Being Considered CONTRACTORS ARE BUSY Sound of Concrete Mixers, Saws and Hammers to Be Common Within 10 Days ‘Warmer weather has set the build- ing bee buzzing in Bismarck. « Within the next week or two, ac- cording to present indications, the sounds of concrete mixers, hammers and saws will again be common in the city which last year built as many private residences as the rest of North Dakota combined. . The reason this year is the same as that which prevailed last year. Many families are living in unsuitable locations and desirable property can be sold or rented with greater ease “here than anywhere else in North Dakota. Inquiry at the Federal Housing ad- ministration’s office here discloses that at least a dozen private dwell- ings and four or five apartment: houses are “on the fire” at the present moment. Design Proves Success Most of the apartment houses will be of the four-family type of which several were built last year. These consist of a building not quite two stories high with two apartments on the ground floor and two on the seoond floor. The level of the first floor is sunk below the level of the surrounding land but they escape be- ing basement apartments because they have full-size windows with the same amount of light and air as though they were built wholly above the ground level. In addition to the inquiries at the FHA a number of persons are negoti- ating with private lenders and insti- tutions- outside the provisions of the law governing the federal agency. Most of the financing, however, 1s expected to be done through the FHA's insured mortgage loan system. Meanwhile, the first house of tne season is nearing completion at 905 Ninth St. It is built by contractor Robert’ Aune next to the model house which he built last summer and which he now occupies. To Be Ready May 1 The foundation was put in last fall and work on the superstructure was begun in mid-March. Aune says it. will be.completed about May 1 and he expects to begin work immediately on: another house at 909 Ninth &t. The house now. nearing completion has an exterior finish of stained shingles and is of unique design, par- ticularly. with regard to the entrance. It isso arranged that a person en- tering its main-floor hall can go to any part of the house or to the base- ment. without entering any other room. ‘A number of other contractors also are busy on jobs initiated last fall. In the rural districts surrounding Bismarck ‘interest in building also is picking up with indications that there will be more building on the farms and in the smailer cities than has deen true for almost'a decade. Shelves, Cabinets May Solve Problem Shelves. built-in cabinets are the answer to many of the housewife’s kitchen: problems. Utility and at- tractiveness ar. gained by installa- tion of shelves and cabinets to house kitchen equipment and materials. For a small outlay: such improvements more than justify the expense entail- ed. Funds with which eee such permanent improvement home are available at private fi- nancial institutions which lend money under terms of the Federal Housing administration’s Modernization Credit Plan. ¥ eGVu__ee—eEeee eee _ Phone 1326 for Ashmore and Ellingson For estimates on painting, pa- pering and decorating.

Plumbing Importance In New Home Stressed Piumbing in the present-day house is as important and necessary as the floors or walls, No house can be con- sidered to meet the requirements of modern living standards that does not include a kitchen sink, complete bathroom, and an adequate supply of hot water. The piping for these fix- Mariy metals are now used for wa- ter piping, and the proper ane to be nstalled frequently will be. deter- tures should be as carefully studied /and and specified as any other part of the house, The location of the main soil stack should be shown on the plans and a wall thickness provided sufficient to contain it. A 4-inch soil line that is needed where a toilet is installed, can- not be contained in a wall made of 4-inch studs, Unless a wail made with 6-inch. studs is provided, the soil line must be boxed in either, with wood or with lath and plaster. This makes @ break in the wall that in many cases could have been avoided by proper planning. Sometimes this box can be placed in a closet where it is not ob- Jectionable. FARMER ENDS LIFE INBARRICADED CELL Worry Over Quarrel Thought to Have: Prompted Suicide in Mohall Jail Mohall, N. D., April 13.—(?)—Be- hind barricaded doors of the Ren- ville county jail, Gustav Krueger, about 40, farmer of the Norma and ‘Tolley communities, took his life Sunday by drinking from a bottle of powerful antiseptic used in disinfect- ing the jatlroom. He was lodged in the jail Saturday him with a shotgun following an argument over ownership of an article ot furniture. Bathroom and kitchen fixtures come in infinite variety and have been improved greatly in design and use- fulness. A combination sink and @ separate laundry room exists, an all-metal sink and drain board; lava- tories with high backs to protect the walls and raise the faucets high enough above the basin to be well out of the way and with enough flat area to set down a brush or jar without having it slide into the water; medi- cine cupboards set below the lava- tory; tubs with integral seats; toilets with low tanks, etc. give the home builder a wide choice. Three Men Trapped Behind Rocks in Mine Moose River, N. 8., April 13.—()}— Scores of miners worked Monday to save three -Toronto men imprisoned behind tons of rock that caved in a tunnel in the Moose river gold mine Sunday night. n Hope was held that R.

Bismarck-- Mandan - Hebron - Dickinson SYMPHONY CONCERT i | | i “TO FEATURE YOUNG MANDAN MUSICIAN Jane Watson Will Play Men- delssohn Opus With Accom- paniment by Orchestra Headlining the Program which the Bismarck Little Symphony orchestra will offer in its third and concluding concert of its third season at 8:30 p. m., Thursday, April 16, in the city auditorium, will be the Mendelssohn G Minor Concerto in which the or- chestra will accompany Jane Watson of Mandan, piano soloist. Miss Watson, a pupil of the Mehus conservatory, has mdde a fine reputa- tion for herself both in Bismarck and Mandan during the last few years. Her appearance with the Symphony now crowns her four busy years as the featured musician of the Mandan high school, Usually in giving a plano concerto, only one or at most two movements are presented, but this time the whole work comprising three movements is to be played. For the remainder of the program, Clarion E. Larson, director, has chosen the Raymond Overture by Thomas, the first movement of the First Beethoven Symphony, Andante Cantabile by © Tschaikowsky and Fourth Pupil’s Concerto by Seitz. The last named composition has been arranged for orchestra by Mr. Larson, using the whole first violin section on. the solo and the remainder of the orchestra for the accompani- ment, Thirty-five musicians from Bis- marck-Mandan make up the per- sonnel of the orchestra, which has improved remarkably in the three years of its existence, this being evi- denced by the class of music offered For Expert Plumbing Call 0.
