Frame and stucco is a combination for home builders that is proving daily more popular. First of all, such a home is always attractive from the outside and stucco is a material that fits in well with practically all sur- roundings. Even in the most exclu- sive suburban developments does the Stucco cottage hold its own, so that the person who is considering build- ing will not go far astray if he chogses this combination of materials wherewith to build his home. The house shown today is an ideally planned bungalow. For the family without a servant it is most conven- iently arranged, while it can, on a mo- ment's notice, be turned into a two- family house. Thus the owner, hard pressel to make ends meet, will be able to help out his finances by making the second floor into an apartment as well as building a house that is attrac- tive and charming not only from the outside but on the inside as well. Entrance is into a large living room which extends the full width of the houseé. It is pleasantly lighted and has an open fireplace to add charm.
