A MODEL ENGLISH VILLAGE.
Bournville, Where the Workers Live
in a Wooded Park.

From the London Times.
During the past eleven years Bournville
village has risen and today il shelters a
community OF about 1900 1t covers an
area of more than 800 acres nearly the
whole of which was a free gift by Mr..
George Cadbury. The village. which stands
amid gardens and park lands. comprises
dwellings which not beyond the re-
sources of the artisan. and also fair
proportion of houses of the villa type. No
two houses are alike. The average garden
space allowed to each house is 600 square
yards and that most of the occupiers take
a pride in their gardens is abundantly evil
dent. The roads are forty-two feet wide.
and are planted with trees The houses
set back at least twenty feet from the
roads. About loo out of the 1000 EN-

In Bournville. or the remaining residents
about 40 per cent work in Birmingham. Mr..
George Cadbury explained that out of their
1000 workpeople only seven had died for
the last four years a death rate OF less
than two per 1000 Six hundred 200
girls had learned to swim In a large bath
provided for them at the works. Prac-
tically all the boys and men could swim.
No cottage is allowed to occupy more
than one-fourth or one-fifth OF the OF
land on which II stands. Mr. Cadbury
urged that IL We were to maintain our post
ton as an imperial the problem of
overcrowding In insanitary surroundings in
our great cities must be faced. At Bourn-
vile village the death rate was .5, where
in the working class quarters of Birm-
ingham the rate was three times as high
One of the principles which had been put
into practice at Bournville was that every
child should be within five minutes walk OF
a playground. He hoped England would
soon adopt the German scheme of not al
lowing any district to be developed for
building without the whole of the plans
being first submitted to central au-
thority
