Wis itors who are shown the beauties of Bir- mingham are always impressed with its topography, it is level and spacious of streets and neatly conventional in the . arrangement of it's residences. These are widely varied in type, including the inn pressive colonial mansion, the home which is modern American in the indi- viduality to be expressed in stone, ce- ment and timber, and the tiny bungalow which has attained a wonderful develop ment. thanks to the art of Birmingham's s architects, and may be found in Norwood in a marvellous variety of forms.
 One of the most interesting homes that one passes in Norwood is that of MT. and Mrs James G. John; a cottage of unusually attractive exterior charm, but whose interior is even more effective in its artistic appeal. A big living room

 The home of MT. Walter Moore is not, to be perfectly accurate, within the con- fines of Norwood, though it is so near that the general impression places MT. and Mrs. Moore as residents of that at tractive community. As their home is so beautiful, and they are both the most congenial of neighbors and most faithful of friends Norwood is naturally glad 10 claim them. The grounds about their home would give it charm if it had noth- ing else, for the lawn is very large and grassy though shaded with the cool green of Ieafy trees. The house is the colonial feeling-built of red pressed brick, and

 Another superb house is that of MT. and Mrs. Frickhoeffer, who have erected and furnished it with lavish hands and extend its hospitality with delightful warmth and courtesy. Its interior is es- pecially artistic, from drawing room to fcosy morning room in the rear of the lower floor, and in the prettiy appointed upper floor, it is the perfection of taste. MT. and Mrs. R. A. Porter also lives in a lovely colonial home Its interior is in keeping with the dignity and spacious ness of the type and so arranged that three lovely reception rooms may be thrown into one.
 The home of MT. and Mrs. J. R. Cope land is one of the most conspicuous and one of the most elegant in Norwood. It is very handsome and combines artistic taste with a comfort which indicates the content of it's inmates. MT. Copeland is
