Heat stop materials in walls and roof mean big fuel saving; so does weather stripping of various sorts; so does covering of steam pipes.

John Smith Plans to Break Ground for Building in Win- netka on February 15 The southeast corner or Chestnut street and Chestnut court, one of the few remaining pieces of vacant prop- erty in the Winnetka "C commercial" area, is very soon to be developed with one of the most artistic business and apartment buildings in the entire vil- lage. John Smith, owner of the property, expects to break ground about Feb- ruary 15, and to have the building completed by September 15. Frederick V. Prather, architect, has designed a building of most pleasing lines, in the Elizabethian and Tudor style. It will be three stories in height, comprise fourteen apartments and three stores, but in general appearance will more nearly represent a large resi- dence rather than an apartment build- ing. Mr. Smith has conducted the delica- tessen at 819 Oak street for the past twenty years. His store and the apart- ment above, which he and his family occupy, is at the southeast corner of Oak and Chestnut streets, directly south of the new apartment which he is building, and is also a corner which, as visioned by Mr. Smith, will some day, in the near future, blossom forth in a similar development as the one he is now planning for the corner to the north.
