Galloway of Evanston to Occupy Magnificent Residence Early Next Summer One of the prettiest homes planned for the north shore the past season is the one which Dr. Charles Edwin Gal- loway, of Evanston is building on Pri- vate road, Winnetka, and which will be completed early next summer. It is English Cotswold type of arch- and will be built of Lanil stone, a hard Niagara lime stone, quar- ried near Milwaukee. Due to its rich permanent coloring it is becoming quite popular throughout the country. Some of the stone trim will be Indiana lime stone. Considerable of the trim about the windows will be of the same Lanil stone. The windows will be steel casements and in some instances will have stone sills inside. The roof will be of rough slate. There will be a touch of half timber and plaster, the same composing the second floor over the sun parlor, to the west. The first floor will consist of an en- trance hall with lavatory and cloak room, one on either side, a study done entirely in oak paneling with all shelves inclosed; living room and sun parlor with a double fireplace be- tween; dining room, kitchen, butler's pantry and servants' sitting room and a two car garage built entirely fire- proof and separated by automatic doors from the rest of the house. The boiler room and oil tank will be situ- ated under the garage and will also be of the same fireproof construction. The only entrance into the rear of the house will be in the servants' sitting room, doing away with an out- side door into the kitchen. The base- ment will contain among other things a moderate sized ball room for the children. The children will also have a large play room on the third floor. The main stairway will be circular, approximately fourteen feet in diame- ter, affording an easy ascent. The second floor will consist of five master bedrooms and four baths. Part of the space over the garage on the second floor will be used as room and bath for a gardener and will be ac- cesable only through an outside stair- way on the east side of the house. The third floor will consist of two maids' rooms and bath, the necessary cedar closet, storage space and a large playroom on the west side. Plank flooring will be used through- out the first floor. The dining room and sun parlor will open upon a ter- race toward the south. The furnish- ings of the house will be in harmony with the English type of architecture. BANK TO LAY CORNERSTONE With brief, simple ceremonies the cornerstone of the new building of the State Bank and Trust company of Ev- anston will be laid Monday afternoon at 4:30. The stone will be placed in the pilaster at the southwest corner of the building. In it will be sealed a metal box containing current publications, lists of officers and directors of the bank, coins, the programs of the Army-Navy and the Chicago-North- western football games and various papers of contemporary interest. The ceremony will be followed by a brief program in the bank lobby presided over by F. J. Scheidenhelm, president. William A. Dyche, chairman of the board, Mayor Charles H. Bartlett, and President Walter Dill Scott will be among those called upon for brief talks. Officers, directors, stockholders and others who are interested in the growth of the bank will witness the ceremony and be guests at the meeting in the lobby.
