Lighting and Heating.
From Good Health.

In planning for the entrance hall ar
range for plenty Of light. Have at
least one window of ample size. Do
not depend upon the light admitted
through a small pane of glass placed
in the top of an ugly so-called
mission" door. The entrance hall
may be made very important factor
in carrying out the general character
of the home, and it needs the light
equally with any other room in the
house.
Another mistake often made is in
depriving the entrance of heat. Ger
tainly the Impression conveyed by
cold entrance hall in winter is not
pleasing one. and does not suggest the
spirit of rest that we have laid so
much stress upon. Not only this, but
in winter weather cold drafts of air
are certain to enter the room through
the opening of doors and through the
cracks around the door. 1t will mean
much to the comfort of the living
rooms if this air has the chill re-
moved from it before entering the gen.
eral circulation.
