ARTISTIC WHITE BUNGALOW. builder have evinced an interest in the HOME or whits bungalow that appeared in this department. So this week I am showing another one. This is larger than the architects 'usually design, as it contains lx rooms, all of which are of more than the average size. However, it will be Just what la wanted by the family of more than the usual number. The suburbs are more suited for whits bungalows than the larger Cities, for the reason that they need lawns, trees, and gardens as settings. Also, it would be rather a difficult task to keep the walls at their best where there is an abundance of soft coal smoke. Both in exterior appearance and arrangement this bungalow suggests the colonial style of architecture. The entrance door placed in the center of the home, with Its slightly projecting roof and the duplicate windows with divided sashes, gives the balance that Is identified with colonial houses. A feature of this design that Is unusual in bungalows is the built up brick terrace which is made attractive by the soldier course at the bottom. The exterior balance is maintained In the Interior arrangement As will be seen by the floor plan, the six rooms are divided, three on either side. The entrance leads to the living room, which is large, 21 feet in length and 1 j feet 3 Inches in depth. Connected with the living roort is the dining room, which Is almost as large. Dining room 12 feet inches by 1 feet Inches are rare. The two rooms are connected by a cased double opening, which gives the owner an extraordinary amount of space when entertaining. Both the living and dining rooms are light cheery ropms. In the former are two glazed French doors at the front and two other windows on either side of the large, open fireplace. There are continuous windows in the outer wall of the dining room. At the rear of the dining room Is the kitchen, II feet 3 inches by 13 feet, with a good size pantry and porch a with soot. An odor like Incense comes from the openings of the lantern. It Is that of the white plnyon of the desert burning In a fireplace below In the cliff.

From the railway station to Hermit's Keat the water is taken by motor, by a road that is undoubtedly bordered by " the world's grandest , scenery." The people who are driven by motor from the hotel to the Kest get thrills for a lifetime.

The front bedroom. 13 feet 3 inches by 15 feet la as large as the living room in most city apartments. At the front it also has two glazed French doors, one leading to the terrace, and two windows at the side. Indicated on the plans are window boxes at both of these win-- ' dows. What a delightful sleeping room this cap be made will be quickly realized by the homemaker, especially if she has good taste in furnishings and draperies. Back of this front sleeping room are two other bedrooms, connected by a hall, at the end of which is the bathroom. Both of these additional bed adjoining. . rooms are 10 feet 6 Inches by 14 feet. Closets are provided for the living room and for egch of the bedrooms. The basement extends ' under ! the whole of the building and is reached by the stairway shown adjoining the hall. In it is enough space fur a completely equipped laundry, the heatiug plant, and fuel storage room, and rooms for the storage of the vegetables and fruit and to the other things that find their way to tfie basement when not in use. This bungalow is of what the build. ers term standard frame construc-JionIts foundation is of concrete with an outer covering of brick. The size of the house is 43 by 39 feet.
