PLANNING HOME IS BIG TASK
Many Problems Of Location and Con-
struction Must Be Solved Before
Excavations Are Started.

A location for a home should be a
site with a restful aspect. Home build
ers should persistently and seriously
consider all Of the numerous features
entering into the situation and con-
struction of house which they them
selves are to occupy.
Very many problems of location and
construction must be solved even be-
fore excavations for hcme are start
ed. All members of the family which
Is to be the first occupant of the build
ing should be privileged, in fact. they
should be Invited, to freely express
their ideas as to proper location and
construction, both as to type or archi-
lecture, and construction materials.
Every requisite Of those who are to
occupy the house, every possibility and
limitation should be carefully consid-
cred and decided upon before the site
is chosen and before the plans are
drafted.
If part Of the family goes to business
each day it will be necessary to con-
struct the home near railway sta
tion or trolley line. II there are chill
dren of school age in the family 1t Is
imperative for the young folks well
fare to select building site In COM
munity with good schools and to locate
the home within a reasonable distance
of the school or schools which the
children will attend. These and other
details should be given careful consid-

wounded. ''He showed a very fine ex.

Private G. Sale, another young

They are of varied types. There is,
for instance, Lieutenant Larrabee, a
West Pointer. who broke his course to
join as private. He earned the ID. Q.
NJ. for special gallantry in rescuing
wounded, and had his commission soon
after. Stephenson, noted sniper in
one infantry battalion, was in the old
days very well-known Western cow
puncher. w. III. Harton, now Cana
dian rifleman, was, when a member Of
the National Guard of New York, a
champion pistol shot, and one of the
competitors for the ElchO shield. He
was wounded at Zillebeke. Williams
of Indiana was a captain in his state
militia. He Joined the French foreign
legion and won the Medaille militaire.
Then he was transferred to the Cana

the British military medal. The story
