the georgejwh herald wednesday evening june 6th 1956 page 2 chatting with m h b 0ever since it was completed a year ago ive been intrigued by the original design of the house on no 7 highway just this side of norval when you drive by and observe the unusual shape of the roof it reminds mt of a butterfly s wings and tht large and plentiful picture windows the whole effect is one of airiness as tho the house were designed to exclude as little as possible of the lovely rolling semciy it commands from its hillside sett ng i must admit too that i had a ways wondered who was bu idm the house fso it was a double pleasure one evening last week to i lce the owner and also see the house when miss gladjs fraser invite i us to dinner at her spot on 7 miss frasers house has combined the din ing facilities of a restaurant with he comfort of home thru tht skill of architect e c s cox of islington as well as serving chicken or steak dinners reservations arc advisable miss fraser also displays
