Plenty OF storage space is provided in

space is reached by stairs through the
dining room. In addition to the room

The compact kitchen is OF the type
that is SO popular among housewives.
Everyone has heard people remark
about the wonderful large kitchen in
some house. IL they had to work in
that wonderful large kitchen for a

person who works in the kitchen has
to move around good deal and If this
room is too big the walking that has
to be done in preparing a meal Is very

The porch is the greatest factor in
determining the impression that per-
son receives from a house. An at
tYactive and coy porch will always
help in making any house more pleas
ant. Porches can be built in many
ways so as to fit in with the general
scheme of the house design. Some
times they are set back under the
main roof, which gives the built-in ef-
feet. Other times they are detached
from the house proper and built under
separate roof, which Of course con-
meets up with the main roof OF the
house.
In the design shown here the porch
is built under a separate roof, but it is
built so low that it gives the built-in
effect just as if it were under the
house roof. The square, white pillars

HOMES FOR ORPHANS
Governor Capper Wants State Wards
Placed in Private Families.

Private homes for inmates of the
state orphans home at Atchison were
urged today by Governor Capper in q
letter to the state board of control.
The governor urged that an especial
effort be made to find private homes
for the zoo inmates that they might
be taken from the influence of institu
tional care and supervision.
The governor believes that the ma
jority of children in the Atchison home
are sufficiently prepossessing to per-
NIT them TO go into private homes and
that their condition car be bettered il
taken from the state institution.
While the governor believes that the
state gives the children the best care
possible under the circumstances, he
much prefers private home life for
them. Good food. clothing and an edu-
cation are provided for the zoo wards
in the Atchison home-but the gov
ernor points out that those are not
the only essentials in the development
of a child.
