MANY TENNIS PLAYERS
AT CLARENDON THIS YEAR

Tennis is becoming very popular at
the Clarendon of late, due to the ar
rival of a number of guests, who play
the game exceptionally well. Notwith-
standing the miserable weather OF the
past two or three days, at least two
enthusiasts have been on the court
every day between the showers, and,
aside from the inconvenience expert
enced by the slippery condition of the
grounds, have managed to play fairly
good tennis. Some of those seen play
ing. and at the same time trying to
dodge the rain drops, are: Mr. and
Mrs. c. d. Compson, Miss Grover, A..
W. Waite, Miss Esther Hubbell and
Chas. S. Hubbell. There is every in
dication that Clarendon folk will wit
ness some fine exhibitions of this
popular game just as soon as the
weather permits.

GOLF ENTHUSIASTS IGNORE
WEATHER CONDITIONS

George G. Allen, of Akron, Ohio, and
Donald Clark, of Huntington, West
Va, are the only real dyed-in-the-wool
golf players of which the Clarendon
can boast at the present time. 1t mat.
tiers not what the weather man hap
pens to hand them in the shape of
weather, they hike right over to the
links every afternoon and fight it out
to the bitter end, rain or shine. One
fellow had the nerve to remark that
he believed George Allen would play
golf just the same, even If he had to
play in snow up to his waist, and use
snow balls for golf balls.

GROUcHY PLAYED sLEUTH
Somewhat Mean Trick to Do, but He
Found Out Which Boy Had
Broken His Window.

Grouchy neighbor, cane in hand,
confronted the Giant Juniors at first
base. which happened to be lamp
post.
(which Of you young rascals batted
the ball that broke my upstairs win
dows?" he growled, humping the pave
ment menacingly with his stick.
Each member Of the team looked as
innocent as china doll. None spoke
Then an idea came to the grouchy
neighbor. He permitted a smile to
drive away the look of anger on his
face.

only joking about that window pane.

Tho Patriot.

Sir Thomas Upton said at a provi-
sioners banquet in London:
"All the blame for high prices is put
on us dealers. You'd think, the way
some people talk, that we dealers were
as false in our patriotism as the chap
who was sanding his sugar the other
day with his errand boys help.
The errand boy, lifting scoopful
of sand, asked:
"'The usual proportion, sir?'
No. Joseph, Of course not the
boss replied sternly. THE usual pro-
portion in days like these? Joseph.

Then he sighed and added
"'Only half the usual proportion OF
sand Joseph-only half the usual pro-
portion as long as our gallant troops
at the front have such need of sand

The Last Straw.

Mary James master is slightly
eccentric bachelor He has one most
irritating habit. Instead Of telling her
what he wants done by word Of mouth
he leaves on his desk, or on the kitch
en- table, or anywhere else where she
is likely to see it. a note curtly direct
ing her to Dust the dining room" or
Turn out my cupboard" and so on.
The other day he bought some note
paper, with the usual die-sunk adj
dress imprinted upon it, from the sta
toner, and ordered it to be sent home.
Mary Jane took it in, and the first
thing that caught her eye was note
attached to the package. She read 1t
open-eyed.

do few things in his blessed notes,
but this is the limit I won't stand it

Secretary of Agriculture Houston
said in Washington the other day:
What improvements we see in the
country when we go there on our va
cation! We see automobiles. tele-
phones. player pianos, monographs
and even, among few wealthy young
farmers. biplanes.
How different Is this prosperity
from the hardships of the past-from

WARRIOR Makes Protest.

And now comes Jack Warhop with
protest on the high pitching mound
at the polo grounds. Batsmen have
been complaining against the extreme
height of the slab firing line, but
WARRIOR is the first pitcher to record
kick. When it is considered, how
ever, that the Yank used an under
hand ball it can be readily seen that
too much elevation would prove a
detriment to control and effective
ness. AS rule the pitcher draws the
benefits. from high mound, SO far
as general opinions are concerned.

way of the stairway that goes down
from the back hall
The plan of this bungalow shows
that the living room and dining room
are so closely connected that the two
rooms really make one large room, 10
feet in width by 81 feet in depth. It
is grand room with plenty of light
from the front as well as the side.
Such combination living room and
dining room requires a uniform de-
sign in woodwork in both rooms The
floor is of hardwood and the wood
work from the Dashboard to the crown
molding at the ceiling is rather
heavy, but severely plain; the only
difference in the general woodwork de-
sign of the two rooms Is in the plate
rail and built-in buffet
Where the living room and dining
room are used as one room the plate
rail sometimes is left out. The din
ing table is placed in one end of the
room next to the kitchen. All the
furniture as well as the woodwork cor
responds, SO that an elegant room,
comfortably furnished, results 1t is
much easier to furnish a large room
than small one, fact that must
be appreciated because there are so
many large living rooms in the newer
houses.
Especial attention is given to the
woodwork and general finish of the
kitchen. The work of lathing and
plastering is carefully done, and the
woodwork is hard and smooth, and
the whole surface of the walls and
ceilings is given smooth, glossy fin
ish of pure white enameled paint.
The kitchen is made light by two
large windows and a glass door that
opens on the back porch.
On the opposite side of the house,
which usually is the north or east side,
we have two comfortable bedrooms,
with the necessary clothes closets, lin.
en- closet and bathroom
All the rooms In the house are con,
nected by short hall that takes up
very little space; an arrangement that
is well liked in a house OF this de-
sign
In addition to the splendid base
ment, considerable storage is provided
in the attic. A stairway is built lead
ing up from the pantry, SO that odd
things may be put out of the way IN
til needed. The attic has considera.
Bile size and is lighted from two large
gables.

to give more character TO the struc-
ture.
The front of this bungalow is rath-
er more ornamental than usual on ac-
count Of the pergola extension and
general character of the porch design.
Over the front door is wide entrance
way Of rather heavy construction
The floor of the porch. including the
pergola end, is of concrete with a wa
terproof finish 1t Is made level across
the front of the house, but is given a
slope outward for drainage. This Is
especially necessary because of the
unprotecting character of the pergola.
1t will be noticed that the approach
to this little bungalow is made extra
wide. The fashion of building wide
front steps and correspondingly wide
concrete walk reaching to the street
has been noticeable during recent
years. One man after surveying his
new bungalow porch remarked that
the steps must have been stolen from
some schoolhouse. At the same time,
after thinking the matter over he de-
cided that schoolhouse steps are neces-
sary to carry out the bungalow-expan
sive idea. Wide front steps seem to
require rampant step borders, which
are useful as seats, besides giving the
necessary finish to the house porch.
In using this bungalow plan the con-
tour of the lot was taken into con-
sideration. The most attractive bun
galows have rather low appearance
In front. A winter bungalow requires
cellar to be deep and we'll lighted.
1t is better to have a lot slope away
to the back, because it permits the
owner to bury his house in front and
to have considerable exposure at the
back.
Bungalow cellars are used a good
deal for storage purposes Access
sories must be taken care of. For
this reason cellar basement becomes
more important than the cellar under
two-story house. When the lot
slopes away to the back it is easy to
make an excellent storeroom under
the front part Of the house and to
finish the rear Of the basement in such
way as to partition off splendid
laundry and furnace room that is en-
tirely separate from the storeroom de-
partment.
Every house built in the North
should have heating apparatus in
the basement. Furnaces spoil eel
lar for cold storage unless it is par.
titioned into rooms. 1t is customary
to put larger and deeper windows in
the back wall, for these reasons. A
laundry room at the back makes a
comfortable work room both in winter
and in summer. 1t is never hot and 1t
is never cold. 1t is easy of access by

Mr.. William A. Radford will answer

Neat, attractive, five-room bunga-
lows are in great demand in towns,
villages, and in the outskirts of large
cities.
American ingenuity has met all diff
ficulties and adjusted this type Of
building to the satisfaction of build
ers and owners and the public in gen.
eral, with the exception only of covet-
GUS neighbors who are not fortunate
enough to own bungalows.
The perspective and floor plan here
with illustrated shows a bungalow
type Of residence intended for a COM
paratively narrow lot that has consid-
cradle depth.
The general arrangement is to place
the house about twenty feet back from
the street to look we'll on the lot.
The depth Of the house is Al feet 6
inches. which brings the rear of the
building about sixty feet from the
street line.
A bungalow setting requires consid-
cradle garden at the back and a neat
ly-kept grass plot in front to carry out
the idea of coy home comfort. A
pretty house needs beautiful flowers
and handsome shrubbery to complete
the picture.

Is concrete up to few inches above

RUDE Benton, the Cincinnati south

the art of pitching when he made his
major league debut couple of sea-
sons ago. Cincinnati and Chicago
were playing, and Benton was pitch

ing short with the Cubs, walked, and
then proceeded to have some fun with
the RUDE. He took a long lead off
first. Benton turned around and
grinned, but he made no attempt to
catch him. Tinker walked to second.
Joe bluffed steal to third and when
Benton made no move to stop him
walked to that base.
Manager Griffith was raving by this
time. Tinker took another look at

What's the matter with you? What
in the biankety-blank were you do
ing out there?" cried Griffith when
Benton came in from the field.
Benton smiled the happy smile of
child that had just been presented
with six-foot sugar cane.
"Oh, they can't fool me-" he re-
piled. THAT man Tinker thought ne
was going to play smart trick with
me. He thought was green and
