II often seems that the style or ap-
pearance of the house doesn't make
so much difference as the site on
which II is built In every town and
village there are examples that prove
this. There are delightful little
places set back among shade trees
and flowers, the house really very
plain and ordinary in design. which
give one a restful, homellke feeling
by walking past.
Then for every one OF this kind
there is one Of the other. TO keep the
balance. probably. Every town has
them. The house is large and pom
pous, quite an architectural creation,
In fact; but it is set down on a small
lot, crowded in, with all the trees and
shrubbery cut down TO make room
for it. In spite of its size and cost
a residence of this kind is very far
from attractive. The home builder
would scarcely take such as a model:
yet many times the real element OF
success in planning the erection of a
home are overlooked and a barren,
uninviting place is the result.
The experienced home builder will
always, If possible select a rough and
wooded site; II II is slightly hilly so
much the better II is true the labor
and expense for grading and prepar-
ing the site for the building and for
smoothing up the ground afterWard
is greater but the satisfaction and
success of the project is also greater,
and the attractiveness of the place
increases as the years go by, while
the extra labor at the beginning is
very soon forgotten.
Almost any style Of house harmo-
nizes well with such surroundings and
is improved in appearance by the
natural beauties of the building site.
Some materials and some styles of
house architecture seem especially
well suited. however. for such use.
The accompanying design is one of
these.

Caboose DISC, with three box cars

behind him were locked and sealed.
and a number of men lounging near

The reply of the sheriff Of Dilwen
