COMBAT STREET NOISES. Berlin Builders Create Courtyards to Get Away From Annoyance. BERLIN (N. A. N. A).—The cor- porations that build nearly all Berlin's new houses have determined to help the o apartments lightful courtyar s and planted with trees. All the living rooms face these courtyards, and you ears from traffic of the streets. The city's week-end traffic might be a lot worse, for the Berliner is a great week-ender. Fortunately, however, he goes afoot more often than hot, even it he has a car.
