good friend, Ed. Mills. This building
cost more than $2O, 900 and it has been
mecca for literary and secret soci-
ETY. conventions which are held here.
The theatrical companies also hold
their plays in this building. They
have three school buildings here EN-.
ploying about twelve teachers, Of
which eight are colored and four are
white. The principal at one school is
Mrs. w. H London and Miss Georgia
Blackburn as principal of one and q
white lady has charge Of the other.
They are mixed schools and colored
and white children go to all schools.
The large meat shop which is permit

one of the wealthiest colored men in
Iowa. He owns over 1900 acres of
land in this and other counties in

county is assessed higher than any
other land, so says the county treas
urer. Mr.. Armstrong has made most
of his money from operating his meat
market, which is located by the side
of the company store.
There are several colored restaur-
ants here. Mr.. Andrew Jefferles has

BY WILLIAM A. RApFoRp.

The quality Of being unique may be
given a dwelling of the bungalow type
with no suggestion Of intricacy of or
namental details. This fact Is brought
out clearly by the Photographic per-
spectlve view accompanying. This lit
tie building is decidedly attractive and
is quite different from the average
mans ideas of q bungalow, yet at no
place In the structure is there any evil
dence of complicated construction. 1t
Is not an expensive type Of cOnstruc-
tiOn; in fact, 1t would be rated among
the class of low-cost dwellings, but this
does not imply that there has been any
skimping resorted to in order that the
cost might be kept down.
There are two floor plans shown
for this bungalow. These differ both
In size and in the arrangement and
character of the rooms. The exterior
appearance of the building is practic-
ally the same for the two plans, the
larger plan calling for a proportional
Increase in the horizontal dimensions
of the exterior, the only variation in
design being the continuation of one
of the side walls back to provide for
an additional bedroom in the larger
The Celina Democrat. (Celina, O. [Ohio]) 1895-1921, 1917-11-16

the kitchen. This door is very cOnve-
nient during the summer since by its
use it is easy for the housewife to
take part of her kitchen work to the
porch where 1t is cool and comfortable.
The bedroom with the bath adjoining
are placed directly in the rear of the
front porch.
On the larger plan the living room,
placed in a position similar to that Of
the corresponding room on the small
er plan, is 10 feet inches by II feet.
The brick fireplace is somewhat larger
than that shown in the other plan and
wall seats are built on either side be-
low the windows. A small closet is
provided in this room. French doors
lead back to the dining room which is
II feet 8 inches by II feet. A cup
board is also built into the wall in this
dining room. The kitchen, fitted out
in a slightly more elaborate manner
than the smaller one, is back of the
dining room. A large rear porch nm
ishes out this side of the plan. The
basement stairs are entered from the
kitchen and the refrigerator, which Is
iced from the rear porch, is placed at
the landing at the head Of these stairs.
A door in the dining room leads into
IL hall which connects with the two
bedrooms and the bath. Each Of the
bedrooms Is provided with a closet
having shelf. The bath has built
in medicine case with plate glass mir
ror door. At one end Of the rear porch
there is a small store room which will
be found very handy part of the
house.
1t is evident that the house pos
sesses the qualities of beauty and ar
for comfort The first oS
these may be greatly aided by building
this house in the proper surroundings
The effect will be very greatly hamp
cred by crowding.

She Did Her "Bit."

There are many ways for one to dc
his bit, but young woman, riding on
the hurricane deck of Fifth avenue
bus, discovered a new way, relates the
New York Times. The bus was just
about to go under the elevated struc-
ture which is, only few feet above
the heads of those seated on Its top
when young man in khaki jumped
to his feet to join a woman friend In
a seat that had just been vacated. The
conductor sprang forward to grasp the
soldier, but young woman seated
nearby was quicker. "Sit down." she
commanded sharply, at the same time
jerking the arm of Sammy. The khaki
clad young man lost his balance and
the next moment he was seated-in the
young s'vOman's lap. The girl blushed
II bright pink, and the soldier apollo
gized, and everybody smiled. 81 don't
care" said the young woman to her
friend. ~ feel that l have done my
bit in saving that soldiers head from
being battered by the low bridge"

Helpless Man.

The ladies-GOd-bless were talk
ing, in the humOrOusly indulgent way
in which they usually tackle the topic,
about their husbands and other wom-
ems husbands.
John is perfectly helpless without

"Henry's that way, too," said Mrs
b. 81 don't know what would become
Of him if I'd leave him for week."

Wasting lime.

II time be of all things the most pre-
clous, wasting time must be, as Poor
Richard says, the greatest prodigality; /;
since, as he elsewhere tells us, lost
time is never found again; and what
we call time enough, always proves
little enough. Let us, then, be up and
doing, and doing to the purpose; so by
diligence shall we do more with less
perplexity. Sloth makes all things diff
ficult but industry all easy; and he
that riseth late must trOt all day, and
shall scarce overtake his business at
night; while laziness travels so slowly
that poverty soon Overtakes him.
Drive thy business, let not that drive
thee; and early to bed and early to
rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and

How Prices Go Up.

An incident which is being told in
the wool trade may, perhaps, shed
some light on the way In which prices
Increase when the fundamental value
'emains virtually unchanged. 1t may
also illustrate how something akin to
,amOufage is utilized by businessmen
% deceive even themselves into be-
ieving there is a shortage. One deal
er sold consignment Of wool at 61
cents pound, and 1t was resOld sever
al times, each dealer making 10 cents
pound profit. In the course of time,
the merchant first referred to heard
that certain firm had an allotment Of
wool for sale and asked the price. On
being told that the present owners had
purchased at 81 a pound, and were
willing to sell at Sf.25, the inquirer
said, "All right, I'll take it and send
you a check. Where is the wOol?" The
answer came: "On the third floor of
your own storage warehouse, where it
has been ever since you sold 1t orig
lnally. y."-Christian Science Monitor.

Same Old Prices.

The voice of an anxious woman
called the city clerks Office on the tele-
phone the other day, relates the In
dianapOlis News.
''Is this the marriage parlor2" she
asked. When told there were no mar
riage parlors connected with the Of
fee, she said she was anxious to get
some information about the price Of
marriage"
II heard some talk about the price
Of marriage going up and wanted to
know If they had standard price dur
ting the war;" she explained.
She gave a sigh of relief when in
formed that the price Of marriage
licenses had not been increased, and
that most justices of the peace and
minister's still relied on the generosity
of the bridegroom for their compensa-
ton for performing the ceremony.

Back from the dining room are the

ing very pleasing effect. False pur-
lin ends are anchored in the walls and
project out to support the overhanging
portion of the roof. The roof over the
small front porch is largely RESPONSE
BILE for the rustic appearance of the
front of the house. The lowest purlin
at this point Is carried back six and
one-half feet from the front wall line
of the building and the rafters are ex-
posed entirely across the porch. Add
Ing to this feature, for the production
Of rustic appearance, is the method
of finishing the walls. The entire ex-
terror wall surface is covered with
special treatment. This treatment
consists Of a preparatory application
Of creosote medium, which, by the
manner Of application at the factory
supplying this material, carries the
medium into the pores of the wood, Sc
curing preserving effect and also fur
nishing an even body as filler, primer
and binder. After the material is
placed on the walls, the surface Is
treated with a pure white shingle
stain which leaves the surface with
the appearance of whltewash which
does not rub off and does NOT have a
panty effect.
A strong feature of appearance is
the tapering brick chimney which Oc-
cupies a central position in the main
portion Of the front wall of the house. |
Other interesting details of the house
exterior are the windows, the flower |
boxes and the porch seat which is
made TO form the supporting structure
