as this. In many living rooms it is
necessary to give the effect of length
by placing the fireplace in the end.
This room, however, is long enough so
that 1t can be arranged to give the i'm
preston Of compactness. This idea is
carried out by placing the large brick
fireplace along one Of the side walls
instead of at the end. Such an ar
rangement gives plenty Of inside wall
space so that some well chosen fur
niture can be secured to fit in with the
general scheme. An attractive fea-
ture Of the living room is the window
scheme on either side of the fireplace.
The windows are in sets of three, set
out from the wall. This places a mar
row shelf at a little below shoulder
height on either side of the fireplace
an excellent place for ferns or flow
ers which match with the color scheme
adopted for the living room. With
the double doors into the sun porch
open. the floor arrangement givTs a
large unobstructed space along this
side of the house.
The dining room, kitchen and pam
try occupy the first floor space On the
other side of the hall. The dining
room is Is feet by Is feet 6 inches and
is provided with an attractive buffet.
A hall leads back to the kitchen and
the pantry is on this hall. The ar
rangement is very convenient. In the
pantry there is q large, well-lighted
work table, a small case and cupboard.
A chimney running up through t he
pantry has thimble installed on the
kitchen side for the range or gSS
stove ventilatOr.
The second floor provides two large
bedrooms with closets, a small Sleep
ing porch, sewing room and bath. All
of these rooms except the sleeping
porch are accessible from the central
hall. There are double doors opening
between the sleeping porch and one OF
the bedrooms. Along the rear of the
house on the second floor there is q
large balcony. This balcony is above
the sun parlor, rear porch and a por-
ton of the kitchen. Plenty of light
is admitted to all of the second-foOr
rooms.

What's the Use?

II have been rejecting" said an old
timer upon the case of the average
man, as his neighbors see him.
IF he is poor, he is bad manager
If he is prosperous, everyone wants to
do him favor.
IF he is in politics, it's for pork. If
he is not in politics, one can't place
him, and he's no good for his country
IF he gives not to charity, then he's
a stingy dog. If he does give, it's for
show.
IF he is active in religion, he is a
hypocrite. If he evinces no interest in
matters spiritual, he's a hardened sin
ner.
IF he shows affection, he's a soft
sentimentalist. If he seems to care
for no one, he's cold-blooded.
Eff he dies young, there was great
future ahead of him. If he attains
old age, he has missed his calling"

DGriAs the past ten years and at
the present time there is a tendency
among home builders to select type
of architecture Nhich descendS direct
" from the earty houses of this coun-
try. The coloEaHl architecture, in all
of its phases, LIS been carefully stud
led by architects specializing in resi-
dence design and beautiful dwellings
may be found everywhere which pos
scss the characteristics Of this style.
All of the modern building materials
have been used successfully in the
adaptation of the early style to pres
ent needs and desires.
Among others there is the type
shown in the accompanying photo
graphic perspective view. This house
with it's gambrel roof and central en-
trance, divided sash windows and
shutters is. typically Dutch colonial.
The walls of the first floor and dorm
ers are finished with stucco and the
remaining exterior surface is covered
with shingles. The outside-built CHM
ney is laid of brick. The design is
simple, which is really a characteris-
tic of the style rather than of this par
ticular house. The dominating fea-
lures of the house, as far as appear
ance is concerned, are the roof and
the windows. The roof surface is
large in the Dutch colonial style and
a considerable portion of it has such
steep slope that it is used to take

GERMANS BRIBED THE UMPIRE
Carl Emil Junck Tells How Teutons

Carl Emil Junck, dye importer OF

shifty and false" he said. 'The Ger

Their war, with it's violation of every
war law and every international agree

"Here is an illustration of the Ger

wind would dash rain in upon the
floor. The owner of the modern house
which is fitted with shutters is re-
lieved of this inconvenience and dis
comfort. If he wishes to open or close
the shutters he need only go to the
window, turn small crank and the
shutter is easily adjusted to any po-
sition, with the window either closed
or open.
1t is usual to follow very SIM
pie color scheme in the decoration
of such house. The walls are usu-

the design illustrated, this scheme IS

The place of walls for the second story
on two sides of the building. The
windows are fitted with shutters
which are almost invariably painted
some shade of green. 1t is interesting
to compare the modern with the early
house and one point of interest is
called in mind in connection with the
shutters. In the early days it was
necessary to go to considerable trou-
BILE in order to close a shutter which
had been thrown wide open. If the
shutters were closed during a storm,
one was certain to get wet and the
