Mr.. William A. Radioro Will answer

There is a feeling abroad that moth.
ing is too good for the home. Even
when building project is undertaken
with the idea of eeonomiring at every
point. the cost Is always increased far
above what was originally planned,
This is not because of faulty estimates
or trickery on the part Of the building
contractor. but because as the work
progresses the owners think of many
improvements and new features that
they would like to add to make the
home more complete or more impo.
sing.
This tendency on the part of hore
builders is perfectly right. II is rare
ly that family builds more than one
home, With well.constructed resi-.

parents and their children but also
often handed down as a legacy to the
grandchildren. a thousand dollars or
so ad led to the original investment
seems of little importance. and very
often 1t is that last thousand dollars
which makes the difference between
cheap. "pinched" house of few con.
ven.anees and scarcely large enough
for the needs OF the family. and the
home that is large enough, equipped
with all conveniences to make II
permanently satisfying and of such
an appearance that II will always be
a credit to the neighborhood.
This trait Of human nature which
forces us to want and finally get the
best when II comes to home building
In spite Of our previous resolutions
for economy should be borne In mind
before the original plans are drawn.
In other words, make the appropria.
ton large enough to start with so
that all the conveniences may be In.
corporated in the original plans. II

of home building to run up so. II ev.
