The roof treatment of this house is a factor In its design wlilch makes It stand out as an unusually attractive small home, entirely free from any of that box-like effect which Is such a common fault of small homes. This attractiveness Is also aided by the wide-shingled wall finish, the neatly placed shuttered windows and excellent entrance detail. All th&se form a harmonious and well-balanced whole. Though the foundation area of this house is quite small (but 28 feet wide and 22 feet deep), five large rooms and bath are provided. On the first floor there is a large living room occupying one entire side of the house. It measures 21 by 11 feet and there is an open fireplace at one side with flanking doors opening onto the porch. At the opposite side of the "central stair and entrance hall, are the dining room and kitchen, both of ample size to accommodate such a family as would occupy this home. On the upper floor there are two bedrooms at opposite sides of the central hallway. These are both large Bed-Rm 8 -9\iZO Bed-Rm Second Floor Plan. rooms and each contains a big closet of the type which every woman will appreciate. The bathroom Is conveniently placed in the front gable. The bedrooms, by the use of doors and windows, can both be given effective cross ventilation while at the same time retaining aU desired privacy.

THE BEST QUALITY -- SERVICE -- PRICES Brda's Hardware Beauty of Interior Due to Attractive Walls Unlimited freedom In the use of color and texture prevails In the many and varied types of homes that are being developed In Europe at the present time. Just as the restraint and simplicity of the American colonial type developed when the country was new, the materials limited, and the workmen without artistic training, and the highly artistic Italian type developed when the merchant princes of Italy were at the height of their power and were commanding the finest material and talents in the world, so the modern European type is developing in a period totally uhrestricted by lack of materials and skilled craftsmen. Even the richest builder of early centuries did not have at his command the opportunities for expression of taste and Individuality which are within the reach of the most modest builder of today. The modern homeowner need cling no longer to antique precedent or the standardization so evident in many modern American homes, but may have a home as expressive of his own Individual tastes as his clothes are. Architects of Holland, Austria, Spain and Germany are taking the lead In these new designs for homes. Some of their creations are so extreme fn design as to be bizarre, but others are of unusual beauty, aridt may well be taken as patterns for American homes. Color and texture In inside and out side walls are the most noteworthy characteristics of many of these modern homes. Ceilings, wall decora tlons and furniture are often painted In consistent designs either In deli cate tints or the brightest colors. Plastic paint which product both the desired color and texture is frequently used in carrying out these effects. A typical finish with this paint is produced by brushing it on in a thick coat and then patting It gently In a continuous motion across the surface with a paint brush. Stucco exteriors of modern Europe show the same freedom of use as the painted interiors. A thick, shaggy surface produced by a criss-cross working of the trowel la an often noticed finish which adds to Its own beauty an unusual receptivity to light and shade. Deep colors are frequently employed and different--sometimes daring--effects may be obtained by the use of brightly colored brick Bet In the wall at Irregular interval^* or by patterns of mosaic or tile, or by half-timbered effects. This unlimited freedom may easily result in extremes, but if crire Is exercised to prevent this, homes of surpassing beauty and adaptability to any setting will be the result. Fireplace Hearth Trip Simplifies Ash Removal ;A new type of fireplace ash dump trips a large section of the hearth downward, Instantly disposing of all accumulated ashes and dirt. The control mechanism Is concealed within the masonry of the fireplace. Ttye dumping section Is 14 by 24 inches in diameter and may be made to match the masonry work of the remainder of the hearth, so that the general appearance Is uniform. The apparatus is very easy to operate, a slight pull on the convenient control handle tripping the dumping section or returning it to place at will. A curved metal shield automatically seals the hearth opening against the escape of sparks, ashes or dust The device may be installed in any, type of fireplace, whether old or new. Lang Arctic Night la the Arctic and Antarctic regions the sun does not go below the horlson for six months in summer. Likewise it does not appear above the horlson for six months in winter. Built-in Accessories Modernize the Bathroom The gleaming whiteness of built-in china bathroom accessories is one of the most effective and pleasant enhancements of the wholesome and attractive cleanliness of the modern bathroom, which plays a large part In the making of the present-day home. The pleasing qualities of these fixtures, however, are not confined to the bath, since many of them may be appropriately used In the modern kitchen. Towel bars and hooks, soap hold ers and glass racks find a ready place in the new attractive kitchens now being widely Installed In present-day dwellings. The built-in accessory may be in stalled in homes already built, al though the work Is more economically done at the time of construction.
