other of the front part of the house, and has fireplace at one end. Six windows and the front door admit light to the room, assuring a pleasant place for the entertainment of afternoon guests. In the rear of the living room the dining room occupies one side of the house and the bedroom the other. A three-window bay is built into the outside wall in each of these rooms. The opening from each of the rooms co the front part of the house is cased.
 The kitchen is centrally located In the rear of the house with the bath room on one side and the rear porch on the other. The rear porch is really built as an additional room and will prove to be valuable addition to the space provided in the kitchen. The porch floor is lower than the kitchen floor. There are two steps in the pas sage to the kitchen and two steps from the porch to grade. Space is provided for the refrigerator on the porch, where it may be iced without tracking dirt into the house. The basement Is entered from the rear porch. Closets are provided in the bedroom, kitchen and rear porch, and a cupboard is set into the wall in the kitchen.
 The utility of this room arrangement will be easily realized. A large, bright living room, such as is provided in this design, is considered a necessity by those who take pride in making the most of their home. The numerous windows are pleasant and an abun- dance of healthful sunshine is admit ted into the house. The interior is fully capable of furthering the good i'm pressIon given by the exterior design.

Kung expects to be appointed commissioner of agricul. ture in one of the Chinese provinces on his return. He is graduate of Cambridge university, England.

the beautiful facingS which may be made an integral part of the block. This feature is a development which is largely responsible for the widening field which the concrete building block serves. Closely allied with the use of various crushed natural stones in the facings is the development and use of white cement, which may be used either alone or in combination with a number of pigments, resulting in the production of any shade of a number of colors.
 The use of these materials enables the manufacturer to produce very close limitations of highly expensive stone at a reasonable cost. Marble, granite, sandstone and limestone may be initiated with such exactness that there is nothing gained in the use of the true material. The surface of the faced block is, as a rule, finished in one of two ways. After the cement has taken it's initial set, the crushed stone is exposed by the use of water and a steel wire brush. This surface IS rough and produces much the same effect which Is obtained by the use of rough natural stone. Those stones which are capable of taking a polish in their natural state may be closely initiated by the use of the crushed ma terial, which is allowed to set firmly In the face of the block, and then the surface is planed down smooth and polished. In addition to these two methods of facing it is possible to tool the surface of the block in any desired way.
 In the structure, the block may be used to carry out the effect which the home builder is striving for. One man may be pleased with the massive ef- feet obtained by the use of large blocks In the entire structure. Another finds his desires realized in the combination of concrete blocks with other building materials. In the latter class or buildings an effect which has been well demonstrated by the use of ornamental brick may be obtained with equal sue cess by the use of concrete blocks Tn the construction of the porch on frame house.
 The illustrations present bungalow which has been designed with a porch of distinctive concrete blocks. In this case the architect has found it possible to greatly improve the appearance or the structure by including the chimney in the porch effect. The facing used is composed of marble clippings ana white cement. The surface of the block is left rough, the marble being exposed by the steel brush. Two sizes are used in the walls and speciai-size blocks are cast for the porch rau. The work is laid up in alternate wide and narrow courses and is pointeu with dark -colored mortar. The heavy columns of the porch are balanced Dy the chimney. which is largely responr

sible for the manner in which the porch seems to blend into the house design.
 Because of the rather extensive white surface of the porch and chim- ney, it is necessary that the trim be White throughout. The dark stained surface of the shingle-covered walls stands in pleasing contrast with the white surface. There are numerous special features in the exterior design. The roof is a low-gable type with fiat roof dormers on the sides. Rafter ends are exposed, and heavy brackets

 Since concrete blocks have found their way into the field of home con struction the architect has been fur nished with a greatly increased range of finishing effects which may be used without involving prohibitiye cost to the owner. As first consideration, the concrete block may be made almost any shape, and novel masonry is ob- tained without the necessity of great deal of chipping and shaping of the blocks by the mason. It is not neces- sary to use blocks having a monotony of size and shape, for all up-to-the-min- ute concrete building block manufac- turers are aware of the possibilities which their product offers, and equip ment for the casting of a variety of sizes and shapes is now installed in their plants.

lace Townsend, Republican, for gov ernor, the remainder of the ticket being unopposed for state offices ex~ cept Durand Whipple, Republican nominee for Associate Justice, against Carroll D. Wood. Judge Wood, who has been on the Supreme bench since 1893, was reelected.
 w. F. Kirby, Democratic nominee for U. s. senator to succeed the late James P. Clarke, won an overwhelm- ing victory over H. L. Remmel, the Republican nominee.
 The chief interest centered in the fate of the amendments and acts. On account of the meager returns receiv- cd it was impossible to determine def initely the result of the vote on these measures. On some of them. where the vote is close, and varying accord ing to locality, the results will not bo definitely known for some time. In some instances, on account of tho close vote, the official count may be required.
 The returns were very slow, on ac- count of the long and complicated ticket, and twenty-four hours after the polls closed, the returns from Ar kansas lacked much of being com plete. In many precincts the election officials did not begin counting until Wednesday morning. The surpassing interest in the results of the national election greatly hindered the gather ing of the state returns.
 Wallace Townsend early conceded his defeat by Dr. Brough for govern or, and sent telegram to him at Fay etteville extending congratulations. as follows:
 Early returns indicate your cleo ton by very handsome majority, and I hasten to extend my cordial con gratulations. Due to your ideals Of patriotism, which places the state ana its welfare above the necessary but far less important contests of politi- cal parties, and to your fine spirit which always accords a courteous consideration to opposing views, the campaign has been waged on plane too high for personal animosities and too broad for merely partisan conten- tions. I trust that your administrar ton will be the fruition of the splen- did hopes which you cherish for the state and it's people, and to this end you will have my good wishes and heartiest support"
