ARE YOU GOING TO MOVE?

Arc you seeking a new home?
If you have to move this year. through
choice or necessity. try to choose your
new home more wisely than you chose
your last. In some respects. doubtless.
the new will not equal the old. But in
some respects the new house can surpass
the old no matter how desirable that
may have been.
To begin with, choose your new house
with view to the air and sunlight it
comma nds. Air there must be. Sunlight
Is highly desirable. But sunlight must
be lacking in some of the rooms. Unless
4 house Is on a pivot there must be some
rooms without any sun or with so little
that most of the year 1t does not count.
Some writer on sanitation has said that
if sunlight can be had in only one room.
that room should be the bathroom. For
sunlight breeds health. and counteracts
and destroys disease.
The family livinsroom, the room in
which the family spends most time to-
gether. should also be a sunny room n
possible. Sunshine makes for good
spirits. and il really gives the room
healthier. more cheerful atmosphere. II
possible il should shine in the sleeping
room of children. But Il can he dispensed
with in the sleeping-room of grown-ups.
They ar. in these rooms only at night.
in them during the day sunlight is not
necessary. Morning sun in the dining
room is desirable. for a sunshiny break
fast puts a pleasant tone over the whole
day. but an eastern room with only
morning sun is quite suitable for a din
ing-room. The kitchen. where servants
spend many of their daylight hours.
should always IL possible. be sunshiny
and cheerful.
a new house. Is the amount of privacy.
Is the street quiet? Is the veranda shell
tered from the gaze OF passers-by? Is
the garden hedged or fenced OFF from the
gardens of your neighbOrs. so that il will
make a pleasant retreat on summer
DAYS?
Then think of the suitability of the
house to your furniture. II there obvi-
Ously isn't wall space for your book
shelves. If the dining-room wouldn't COM
fortably hold your buffet and serving
table and china closet. If the bedrooms,
were all made for double beds. whereas
you wish TO put two single beds in each
then the house is really not fitted to
your uses.
When you go house hunting. make out
a list of all the points you can think Of
sunlight. air. location. privacy, furniture.
color scheme of wall papers. and any
thing else that comes into your mind as
important in choosing a new house. and
use this list to help you in your selec-
ton.

Ten Cents a Child.

If every child in the country should
give 10 cents-the price of two tickets
to the cheapest picture show. or a bag
of sweetmeats-enough money would
be raised to make the George Washing
ton Memorial Building in this city a
fact. There are enough children in
this country and this work of carry
ing out the last wish of the Father of
His Country would truly be a fitting
tion. In Washington alone 10000 chill
dren have contributed their small share
of 10 cents, the total number of chill
dren throughout the country enrolled
in this undertaking being but 5000
One of the difficulties in raising this
very practical obstacles that are placed
in the way of collecting money through
the public schools. 1t is but natural
that in the free schools of the country
there should be a bar placed against
those who would raise sums for any
purpose whatever.
But it does seem a pity that when
this great work. which is so much
needed AT the present time. might be
so easily brought into being through
the cooperation of the children that
some means might not be devised to
make it possible for them to do it
More than almost any other undertake
