Two Build House and Furniture

Sharing equally the hardest labor
involved in excavating In carrying
and laying brick, in mixing ana shap-
ing concrete and in laying the heavy
tiling on the roof, an enterprising
teacher in manual training school
near Pittsburgh and his wife planned,
built and decorated an eight-room
brick house. which is a model of con.
Venience and of artistic designing. No
outside help was employed save that
plumber and an electrician were
called in to conform To the building
laws of the state.
Every piece of furniture, from kit
chen table to library chairs was de-
signed and made by the competent
hands of this resourceful couple. The
heavy chandeliers and candelabra, or
namented with massive brass domes,
with large chains and with quaint Dor.
der designs the inlaid pieces of great
artistic value and labor saving de-
vices in kitchen and laundry are their
handiwork. A picture of this unusual
house Is a feature of the Decem ber
