This is true, Mr. Murphy explained, because of the peculiar requirements that must be present if the house is to be suited for | comfortable occupancy. Home Building Difficult. In office buildings, for instance, he sald, the structure is built according to the specification of the owner, usually | without thought arrangement of the rooms or of the various features with- in a room. The contrary is true in the case of a home, he pointed out. Here arrangement is the principal factor to be taken into consideration, and on it depends whether the house will be livable. The architect must study carefully every detail. He must decide the most convenient arrangement for ihe rooms as well as the most attrac- [tive exterior design. He sometimes must spend hours planning just show he will swing a door or where he will fect. usually strictly limited in his use of Spa materials by the owner’s means, which often makes it difficult for him to create the harmonjous and artistic atmosphere that is sought after in_the construction of every home. It is these obstacles which make the national better homes competition extremely interesting to architects and laymen alike and call out the utmost of originality from the contestants, Mr. Murphy thinks. Set Definite Requirements. ‘While not desiring to limit this origi- nality, the Home Owners' Institute has set out certain requirements which must be complied with in the drawing of the plans and in the specifications. These are thought necessary to insure that the contest will fulflll its purpose, which has been divided into three parts. The divisions are: First, to develop | practical designs for houses which can be built within reasonable cost limita- tions, avoiding freak pla real estate investments; o) d permanent satisfactic thll’d tion ant ent satisfaction; e, Fraptn) Joose & all entries to cer- fnn sizes and arrangements which will meet the requirements of the typical mburban lot. t is re&l that the designer co template the provision of a dry, water- No Ready Cash Is Required For mon than 80 years - been serving uu-nn homeowners.

By the Associated Press. GARDONE, Italian Riviera, June 26. —A strange picture has been painted by persons familiar with the surround- ings of Gabriele d'Annunzio, Italian poet and playwright, who was operated on here Sunday for appendicitis. The hero of Piume, it was said, lies absolutely rigid in utter darkness on-a cot in a little room adjoining the im- d operating clinic. His faithful servant, Cama, t former sailor on the famous ship the Fiume expedition, sleeps on a rug outside the door and allows none but the nurses and doctors to approach. The poet has composed a quatrain about hu operation, which he under- went with only a local anaesthetic, and he astonished his surgeons by reciting it to them in a cold, clear voice. ‘The most optimistic of his attendants said today he would be as well as ever within a week, but his doctors were de- termined to insist upon at least a fort- night in bed. undisturbed by visits of either members of the government, his family, or former comrades-in-arms. The register outside his quarters is negrly filled with signatures, most of them those of workmen, artisans and | peasants from the surrounding neigh- borhood.

Piloneer Aviators Speak. Among the speakers were pioneer avi- | ators representing the Army, Navy and commercial aeronautics. They all joined in plea for construction of more airports in all parts of the country and | for improvements in existing airports. i The opening gun of the campaign ‘whlch resulted in putting the new club into the battle line for better airport | facilities was fired by David S. Ingalls, Assistant Secretary of the Navy for | Aeronautics. Construction of adequate airports, Mr. Ingalls said, is the most important contribution to the advance- :lnent of aviation that can be made to- ay. After indorsing Secretary Ingalls’ ple- for airports, Comdr. John H. Towers, one of the first Navy flyers and now assistant chief of the Bureau of Aero- nautics, urged adequate roof marking of cities and towns as the second great need of commercial aviation in this country. Comdr. Towers mud out. that it is impossible for lane pilot to land at frequent 1nterv-u to determine his location, and in case of hazy weather, which makes following of a map difficult, the only reliance the fiyer has is identification mlrkxnn on the roofs of prominent buildings in the towns over which he fiies.

A woman whom I have known for some time, and who had been earning a good nhry in the same position for over a year, came to me about starting a business of her own. She had found a woman with ‘money to invest, but not enough, and she needed $1000 more. She had a good plan and was a woman of sense and honesty. She deserved to obtain that $1000 without being forced to sell-her nest egg of Liberty bonds. Unfortunately, she had no credit facilities at a commercial bank, and was unknown. The Morris Plan Company of New York, a great industrial bank- ing institution devoted to the extension of financial accom- modations in amounts from $50 to $5000, gave her a collateral loan without question. * * * Never have I known such happiness as when that woman realized she could start her business. The dream of her life was about to come true— and it has. She now owns a flourishing business, and has repaid her loan on the monthly payment plan. If she had not been able to obtain this money, she would have tuuined . in her salaried job, a disappointed woman. * * * “These (the Morris Plan) industrial banking institutions have both national and group associations, and they are members of the United States Chamber of Commerce, the American Bankers’ Association, and other large bodies. Indi- vidually, they have their piaces in local commercial associa- tions and are recognized as engaged in an essential, a legiti- mate and a normally profitable form of enterpfise. * * * While there is sound profit to the lender, the benefit is largely on the borrower’s side, as he is ‘mm‘ away from the The whole transaction is aboveboard.

Often health and education are neglected through lack of money. To be successful, we must advance. Many well educated women in the business world are still plodding along in the same rut, because they lacked the knowledge of how to borrow.” s During the past 19 years Morris Plan Institu- tions throughout the length and breadth of the U.
