demand for better living conditions
made possible by modern improve
ments. about most of which our
fathers knew nothing. When your
father built the house in which you
were born he not only did not in
cmde these now considered necessi-
ties. he absolutely knew nothing
about them. Instead of adding these
to the cost, and making them part
of the house, he went to the hard
ware and furniture stores and
bought his heating plant in the form
of stoves; his lighting plant in the
form of a coal oil lamp, and his clos
cts and pantries in the shape OF
wardrobes and kitchen cabinets
There was time when most people
slept in the house and had the bath
room in the shape Of tub in the
kitchen, and the children fought for
the first chance at the hot water. The
toilets were in the back yard. We
have now reversed this order. We
have the toilets in the house and
sleep out of doors.
