T<1clay, this sun porch, with glass sides winter and screens for summer, is c·m-,idcrcd by many just as essential a part ni the home as the living room, the dining room, or both. In fact, many ian11lit·~ make more use of the sun porch than they do of any other portion ui the house.

When spring begins to melt into summer and the glazed sides of the sun porch can be replaced by screens, then it is that it actually becomes the center ni family life. Wired fo r the use of electrical appliances it is an ideaf place inr iuforma l afternoon entertaining. As thl' Wl'athcr gets warmer members of the iami ly just naturally gravitate there. The breezes blowing in through the 'creening make it the coolest spot of the entire house. Likewise, when protected by suitable netting, one may sit here after dark reading by the light of a conveniently placed electric lamp, ununmolested by buzzing mosquitoes. On the hottest night of summer the electrical equipment which enabled you to enjoy a sun porch breakfast in the dead of winter again comes to your aid. Bring out the electric fan and plug it into the same convenience outlet that supplied the current for percolating the j breakfast coffee and loll at your ease . in its refreshing breeze. T hese are but some of the uses that 1 can be made of a sun porch that is wired for electricity. Others equally as prac-~ tical will suggest themselves to you as you begin to rn2ke the most of this most ?elightful portion of the modern AmerIcan home. . In arranging for the electrical wiring. of your porch include several convemence outlets-one in the center of the floor, if possible-and either a ceiling luminaire or two or three siue wall fixtures. Such an installation enables you to make the fullest use of it throughout the year. ~tcam-heattll ~ra l sulxlued Here, Indeed, Is A Better Home BEAUTJFCL home-in a setting A of tall shady elms-on a broad avenue fringed with wide parkwaysclose to schools, churches, stores and trains, yet in a most quiet and desirable neighborhood.
