home that is strong and pleasing to look
upon. in a systematic, labor saving man
ner. Furthermore, completely drawn plans
will enable the owner to take competitive
bids on the work, thereby saving on the
cost. and let his contract on a businesslike
basis, knowing at the start just what he
will get in the finished structure.
Question-What makes the best kind Of
a lot to build a pretty good house on OF
about eight rooms, with some kind Of tall
columns on the front?
Answer-The best location for a house
is a comparatively level lot at the crest OF
a hill. There are two things toward which
we Americans seem TO aspire, one is to get
as high in the air as possible and the
other to cover the ground when travelling
as fast as possible. At present these ten
denotes cannot be consistently related,
since one cannot go up hill as fast as on
the level, but the airship may overcome
this obstacle. A high hill or bluff with a
level plateau at the top and some easy
means of ascending is ideal in every re-
spect Beside the pleasure to the eye OF
distant views the air is always fresh and
cool. A prominence of this description
gives one a feeling of Independence.
Surely one is like the English lord, mas
ter OF all I survey" so far as the pleas
ures Of sight are concerned. Without a

Building Notes

Getting away from the old stereotype ef-
feet in residence construction is doing much
to improve the looks of Omaha. Much is
said about the extent to which brick is
s~upplanting lumber. and this is accounted
for both by the greater beauty as we'll as
by the greater durability of the former.
1t has ben proven that a brick house can
now be completed and occupied in as short
time as frame. Another element of great
influence In the decision OF the owner is
that he is no longer obliged to confine his
selections to red, buff and gray brick. For
instance, take the new residence just COM
pleted by DR.. j. E.. summers al Thirty
seventh street and Dewey avenue. 1t is
strictly colonial and no other brick would
have been just right He used what is
called a "vitrified-sand-mould" red brick,
with pure white mortar joints of unusual
thickness. The new slightly Summer resi-
dence for Mr.. r. r.. Evans now being
built out in the country south Of the Happy
Hollow club is a unique architectural ef.
feet that would have been quite destroyed
by using any other kind than a brown and
gray notified paving brick.
