We have not heard anything of re-
cent date about the building of the
pike from here to jamestown via
Russell Springs. If the project could
be put through it would be an enter
prise that would be of incalcuable
benefit to both Russell and Adair
counties. 1t will require some money
to build this pike, but if a few hustl-
ing men would take hold of it, in a
very short time they could give an
idea of the amount that could be rails
ed. Another thing to take into con-
sideration, the amount of work that
would be donated in the way of haul
ing, etc.

Good Taste in Painting the House

In view of the fact from actual OBJ.
servation, that so manylof the homes
IN Columbia need identifying with
paint, and this being the most practic-
al time OF the year in which to dc
painting, advance some few thoughts
with the aid of practical instruction,
concerning exterior house decoration.
Good taste in painting a house is
not shown unless the house is made to
harmonic with its neighborS, and a
man ought to take as much pride in
The appearance of the community in
which he lives, as in that of his own
property, and in striving for some
thing different from any one else, a
house owner often commits an error,
by merely making his home look COM
mon and unattractive.
This bit of advice is not put to the
home maker by an experienced artist,
but if you put two or three colors on
that new house of yours, it will not
look good. Don't run band of red
around the middle, and don't have a
lot of ginger bread decorations picked
out in a different color from the body
or the house, in fact your house
would have much heater appearance
II you had no ginger bread painting on
it at all
You can very easily make a house
look larger or smaller, nearer the
street or farther from it, by the color
you paint it. In addition to white
Tor the big house, there are three
other fairly safe colorS for the smaller
building. They are gray, yellow and
brown, the darker blends to be bor-
dered with white. But white is the
most excellent for all, if there are
trees and shrubs on the lawn. On
treeleSS, level ground yellow has the
most pleasing effect, because less glar-
ing in the sunlight. A good yellow
looks well on large colonial house, or
a simple country cottage. Many small
houses look better in lead or gray than
any other color. White always sug-
geStS the simple or formal, but is not
suited for bungalows, or houses with
many gables or projections. Shades
of red and brown look well on Such
houses, especially if they are shingled
all over, and the shingles stained.
Green is often used on shingled bun
galows, but the effect does not Justify
its use, especially in the country
where the green paint enters into IN
equal competition with the green of
grass and trees. Color on the roof is
often highly effective, such as red.
garrett, gray or brown, more espec-
tally on tin roof, and green stained
shingles look their best on white or
brown houses. What has been said
above applies principally to frame
houses. Another very important point
to remember in planning to paint a
frame house, is the fact that differ
emit woods should have different blends
of paint ingredients, and, different
methods of applying the first coat or
filler. Many painters get in such a 1
hurry that they do not consider these
important variations in the value to
the owner. They just slap on the
paint any way, just to paint The
owner of house, however has a ire
mendouS interest in the durability of
the job, as painting costs money, and
it is perfectly natural that they should
want the best paint and the best serv-
ice if they are to get a maximum val
ne for their outlay.
