This is a place where the children

Greenhouses are built to give sun
light to plant life, but the children
are allowed to grow in sunless rooms.
The sunroom is best when built
upon the second floor. facing east and
south.
The numerous windows should be
built close together and set In a slcp-
ing roof
This room should be arranged so
that 1t is conveniently independent OF
the rest of the house, in case of i'll
ness.
Paint the walls cream. and have the
floor parquet. Carpets and rugs
should be eliminated from the sum
room. They harbor dust and germs.

The furniture should be Of the sim
