ance with the new idea that the large
porch is a good thing to really use,
not simply a ~pretentious ornament for
the street front.
The large porch today is very apt
TO be screened in in the summer time
and surrounded with glazed sash in
the winter and made comfortable for
real use as a living room or a dining
room.
For these purposes 1t is obvious
that the location at the street front
would very seldom be satisfactory, eX-

large grounds where the house can be
set some distance from the street.

EMERSON ON ADVERTISING
Sermonette Founded on Text From
Writing by Famous Author-ele-
mental "Dos" and "Dont's."

William Hugh Strong. in the San
Diego Sun, sums up a considerable
number of the elemental dos and
dont's Of advertising in a little ser
monette, the text of which he has TAX
en- from Emerson. AS the mind OF the
producer of advertising works on the
same principles as that of the man
to whom the appeal is made, a little
incessant affirmation may do him no
harm. Quoting his text for insplra-
ton, Mr.. Strong says:
Nerve is with incessant affirmation.
Don't bark against the bad, but chant
the beauties of the good"
: ""Incessant ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ad-
vertising. Don't bark against the
bad"-that means, don't dwell on what
your goods are not. Don't knock your
competitor. Don't make your adver-
tisements negative; make them afr
native. Chant the beauties OF your
goods, your store, your service. In
cessantly affirm the reasons why
people ought to buy our merchan.
disc.
Why should they buy of you in pref
erence TO others? What are the adj
vantages of your goods, your assort-
ments, your location. your store serv-
Ice? Figure out the important points
and present them In as clear and
simple and f~orceful a way as possible.
Make your story definite and specific.
Give Instances of your superior val
ues. Quote prices! Don't be afraid to
state the facts and figures. Not fig
ures of speech. but just plain. old
fashioned Arabic numerals that speak
a language all can understand. Don't
try to be witty, or smart" or poetic,
or humorous. or literary. Affected ad'

kind. Better get right down to bust
ness. Better be as sane and sensible
as you IAN. BE brief. Tell your story
and then stop.

form of lath Is best suited for exte-
rior cement plaster work. Some claim
that wood lath is more durable; 9th
ers claim that only metal lath should
be used. There is little doubt that
II high grade, well-cured wood lath
could be used such would be thor
oughly satisfactory in every way. I'm
fortunately, however, much of the
lath now sold is OF such poor quality
that it will scarcely hold together
while being nailed in place.
Expanded metal or wire lath has
proved thoroughly satisfactory on
many important jobs. 1t has the great
advantage of being fire-resisting and
when the cement plaster work IL
properly applied and made waterproof
there is little danger from rust.
The house shown here has been es-
pecially designed to make use of the
advantages of cement plaster or stuc-
co walls. The prosperity, home build
er could not fail having good results
when using such a plan as this.
