The entrance door design, already discussed, the sun porch and the balcony above, the sug- . Variations of the different types of home building designs are always Interesting for they demonstrate that individuality of treatment brings most unhappy results. This is shown in the home reproduced herewith. This is a variation of the dutch colonial type of architecture. But by the design of the roof over the porch and extending it up to the eaves, the architect has taken away the plain effect of the dutch colonial and substituted a graceful break in the otherwise straight lines. This arrangement, has made First Floor Plan. possible a closet off the entrance on the first floor and one of the same size on the floor above. This home contains six geod large rooms and a large sun parlor. How Old Heating Systems Are Easily Modernized While the fundamental principles of radiator heating have not changed in the last ten years, there have been de- vised many improvements which may be utilized by the home owner to mod ernize a heating system which may have been Installed a decade or two ago. The circulaton in an old heating system may be speeded up by the attachment of an electric pump to the main riser line. Stimulation of fthe circulation of the hot water in this manner will not only result in more heat for the remote radiators, but will also result in considerable fuel econhot-wat- er . omy. . . systems Installed years ago were all equipped with expansion tanks which were usually placed in attics. Now that space is becoming more valuable, many attics are being converted into rooms.. Any home owner who may wish to get rid of an un sightly expansion tank in his attic may dispose of the tank and substitute an expansion device in the basement. This Is not a tank, lut a small contrivance that Is so adjusted as to relieve pressures. e steam heating systems may be successfully converted Into partial vacuum systems by the attachment of special air valves to the radiators and the use of another type of special air valve attached ; to the piping in the , basement. Many highly perfected devices are on the market for the thermostatic control of the drafts and checks. Some may be attached to the boiler; others "room temperature con-- ' are will open and shut and they trols," drafts as the temperature In the rooms rises or falls. Some may be obtained autoequipped with clocks which will on in to drafts go matically cause the deis that time at any the morning sired. Old heating systems may be dressed as ,up and beautified In the basement well as in the rooms above.

The interior arrangement is along colonial lines in that there is a central hall with the living room to the right extending the depth of the house and the dining room, sun porch and kitchen with breakfast nook adjoining the latter room, on the other side. The stairway running out of the hall leads to a central hall on the second floor off of which open three bedrooms and a bathroom. The dimensions of this house are 24 feet by 30 feet, exclusive of the sun porch projection. It is of frame construction set on a concrete foundation and has a full basement the same size as the dimensions of the house proper. modern square boiler with a colorful insulated jacket Similarly, while radiators will last the life of any house, many Improvements have been made in radiator design in the last three years, and some home owners have replaced the older, heavier radiators with the modern, type of classic design. Long, low radiators may be used to replace high ones, and this change will make a remarkable improvement in the appearance of a room especially If there Is window space that lends itself well to long radiators. Another type of radiator can be Installed in connection with a metal window frame and is recessed in the window. Partial concealment of the radiator is obtained as well as a considerable saving of space. Or, if the home owner wishes to go in for more extensive remodeling, he may buy concealed radiators made of copper, brass, or aluminum which are so small that they will go into the wall and thus he entirely out of the way. Still other people prefer to keep the older radiators and cover them with one of the various attractive radiator covers which are now on the market. Usually such radiator covers vary In efficiency in accordance with the freedom with which they allow the air to circulate around the radiator. Many are equipped with humidifying devices thin-tub- e Children Need Space to :7 Be Healthy, Happy, Wise The childs playroom and outdoor playground are almost as essential to the home as the kitchen or living room. Every home in which there are young children should have a room reserved for their exclusive use. In homes where there are a number of children, a playroom should be had, even at the sacrifice of the guest room. Attics and basements properly decorated are often used. Double Studs Needed There should be double studs at each side of all window and floor openings and at top and bottom to carry the extra load Imposed on them by the cutting of the studs by the . opening.

The dog coaxed Hershey toward the barn, where he rescued the cow before she strangled to death in the hayrack. When Bess became trapped, Nina clawed away the latch on the upper half of the barn door, bounded over the lower half, which had resisted her efforts, and was off on her rescue mission.
