CEILING DECORATION.
Some Ideas That May Be Utilized to

From the Seattle Post tlntelligencer.
In decorating a room it should be re-
membered that the ceiling is not

really no less than a wall. and should
be treated with as much care as wall
or a floor. of which it is often only the
other side 1t also takes the place Tor
the time being of the sky.
In France and Italy the idea OF the
ceiling sky finds expression in the pale
blue of the ceiling, OF, going a step fat-
ther. in suns and stars. or clouds ana

ceiling decoration. because it again SuS-
gests the natural roof that would be
formed by the tree branches. But these
are subjects for country Whefe
plenty of sunlight permits OF a great
deal of outdoor life. They are less SUIT
ed to blazing fires or hot air apparatus.
The English ceiling lends itself best TO
paneling. though this is chlefy conHned
to the dining room. Generally speak
ing. the tone of an English dining room,
even today, IS warm and dark browns

Early English Homes.

From :he Building age
English common people Tor centuries
made their homes in wooden huts of one
room. When d family increased ~ num-
ber or wealth another hut was built TO
II or rather a lean-to was added. and an
other and another as needs required.
Sometimes they followed a straight line,
other times they were built out from the
central hut at various angles. The roofs
of these huts We're thaIched. In the CEN
fer was left an opening for the fumes and
smoke of the fire to escape. The fire was
always built in a hollow in the center or
the room.
Beds were straw. often a shakedown in
a corner Occasionally the straw was
aeld in a frame like the ribs of Il ship.
Houses built by Saxon knights We're
much more pretentious. They We're big
halls. like the Roman atrium, with a
lofty roof matched with slate or wood
shingles. The floor was hard clay. In
the middle was great fire of dry wood.
The thin, acrid smoke from the fire es-
capped through an opening in the roof di-
rectly above the hearth.
Around the fire were long benches on
which hearthsmen and visitors sat when
not fighting or at work and talked and
drank the hours through. The tables
were long boards on trestles. At night.
like the less prosperous folks the floor
was strewn with straw and host and
visitors slept together.

APARTMENT DEFINED.

IN the opinion several previous cases

IT IS a matter of common knowledge"
says .ioStIce Mclaughlin in his opinion
mat III recent years in the city of New
lofk tnere has been great increase in

in their use for housing not only the mid

parties who made the Murray Iiill re-
strictive agreement in 1917 intended that
the district should be restricted to priv

intend 1t to continue as a residential dis
trict. but they limited the character of
the buildings only TO dwelling houses.
Apartment houses. form of building I'M
known until long after the agreement
was made. are now the dwelling houses
of a constantly increasing proportion of
the residents of the city of New York.
Whether the parties if they could have

SAYS TALL BUILDINGS
LACK CONCRETE DESIGN
Declares Horizontal Lines Should
Be Eliminated if
Possible.

When man first used brick or stone for
the walls of his houses these walls had
to be very strong. as they had to bear
not only their own weight. bat also the
weight of the entire building and all it
contained. says Theodore F. kreuger in
the New York Herald. And when later.
man used columns. bly to initiate
the trunks of trees. these columns were
not merely intended to beautify the build
ing. but had real purpose. which was
that of supporting and strengthening the
wallis and upholding also the weight Of
the usually very heavy roof.
in the modern skyscraper. where the
entire weight of the building and roof is
upheld and borne by the steel skeleton.
the walls bear really nothins-not even
their own weight-and they should there
fore be treated as shell only. and so be
constructed and decorated in a manner
suitable
The lighter and the more graceful in
design such decorations are the more
beautiful and fitting the effect will be.
In tall buildings the exterior decora-
tons should have an upward sweep. They
should create the imnress!GE that the
building is rising from the sea. else grow
ing into space before ones eyes.
The usually accepted style is row of
columns. then hundred Or more feet of
plain, naked walls. with square holes IN
them. and on top of this another row of
columns bearing nothing. not even the
