retaining the vigor Of all his eighteen
years OF lakewood life. Clarence Barton

never has tasted a mouthful Of meat
Never has drink Of tea OF coffee

And he is a perfect specimen Young

Each house faces the large open flower court in

in full bloom and, with the smooth green lawn divided
by the cement walks and curbs a background they
present beautiful bit of scenery.
But flowers not found alone in the central

Although every structure is different both inside
and out all have some common features.
Hardwood floors laid throughout. In every
house there hardwood colonades. They are, how
arranged differently in the different buildings
Built-in book cases are also common features.
Fireplaces Of different designs, surrounded by
different fixtures, will burn either wood or gas.
French doors are used throughout the court. No
two doors, however, are of the same design Built-n

house. Probably the dining rooms the most beau

location is almost as good as the front.
This arrangement was agreed upon after thorough
investigation of similar courts in large cities and aft
er thorough consideration of the needs of Richmond
The Washington Court was built especially to suit
the business man who does not like large yard to
care for but appreciates nice flower garden and
lawn. The garden and lawn in the center is common
property and have equal privileges
Entrance t. the curt is gained through an arts
tic gateway On either side of the large cement walk

High stone pests surmounted by large lights stand

People Wis ting here from other cities have told the

At tie rear, on each side are found courts, which
may be used for drying clothes beating rugs These
rear plots, like the central court common property
Just behind the rear courts, large cement garbage

Six garages will be found in the rear all with the
most modern equipment. These garages do not 90

separately.
From the garages, there are back walks to each of

$1,000 to $4,000 more, Edwin G. Kemper said today.
