Fort Roots since the cessation OF hos.
tilities on November II, Lieut.. ]. p
Jolly of Warren, Ark, and Eve other
officers were in charge Of train
load of 514 men, recently arrived at
Garden City, N. Y, from England
where they were in the air service
They are from Arkansas, Louisiana
Tennessee and Oklahoma.
But the real heroes of the war are
the wounded. F'ifty-three arrived. II
being assigned to the Camp Pike base
hospital and AZ to the Fort Roots In
firmaries. The convaleseents have
been arriving in small groups at the
Camp Pike hospital for the past sew
eral days, and there are now about
90 there, many of them Arkansans.
The men are injured in many differ
ent ways, some by shrapnel, others
by shell fragments, rifle bullets. etc.
and many have been gassed These
men are forerunners of larger contin-
gents of wounded men who will be
sent to the two hospitals.

a few dollars to do this, but it is worth
off the corner board and cut out pieces
of the old clapboards. so that the new
will lap into the old and there be no
straight-line joint. The same is true
of shingles, brick or stone and stuccO /;
get it all to match.
One must not make the mistake Of
mixing the architecture; you must
carry it out on the lines of the old
building if you want to have it look
right.
Roof Sometimes Is Hardest.
The hardest part sometimes is the
roof; in some cases it takes quite a
bit Of figuring to get it to look well,
as some parts may cut off awkwardly.
OF course, when an extension is
rooted it should be with the same ma
terial as the original roof.
Sometimes a fiat roof is used in con-
nection with pitched roof, and it can
be made attractive at that by some
simple means-a railing or balustrade
joining the original roof often is the
solution.
The most frequent reason for add
ing an extension is to gain one or
more bedrooms quite often bedroom
is desired downstairs; mother is grow
ing older and it will be easier for her
to be downstairs So what is more
natural than to have that additional
room downstairs, with a bathroom or
The Pulaskian., 1918-12-20

dining room. If one is desired it can
be had by an addition and using that
as dining room, or using the old
kitchen or living room as the dining
room and using the new addition as
the kitchen or living room.
Attention to Floor Level.
Care must be taken to get the floor
level in the extension the same as that
of the older part. A slight variation
is apt to occur, but use a wide
threshold and have the one edge rab-
bited so it will fit over the joint level
on both sides and the difference will
never be noticed.
A very interesting example of an ex-
tension to the side Of a house where

Experiments made in the training of
dogs as messengers with the armies In
the field have, it is stated, given sat
isfactory results. The dogs which
have proved most receptive under In
struction are chiefly half-bred collies
and retrievers. A rather poor breed
Of bob-tailed sheepdogs has also done
well. All have been trained to per-
form their errands during heavy fir
ing, both of rifles and guns. They can
be fired over as easily as the ordinary
sporting dog, and, what is quite an
other thing, they will face fire at close
range.

house. The combination of these three
materials does not produce patchy
finish, but they harmonic beautifully.
The brick are used in the foundation
walls from grade to the stills, and in
the porch railing wall. The sides of
the house are finished with beveled
siding up to the second floor, and with
shingles the rest of the way to the
roof. If the shingles are stained some
fairly dark tint and the beveled siding
is painted some light color or white,
with the window sash dark, the effect
produced is very pleasing. With the
proper lawn, shrubs and vines to set
off this house a very pleasant home
may be established.
Interior Well Arranged.
The cozy interior arrangement is
now the most interesting feature of
the home lover. The large living room
is an excellent place for the family to
gather in the evenings. A fireplace
with bookcase on one side and seat
on the other is built at one end of the
room. The stair to the second floor
starts from one corner or the living
room. A cased opening leads to the
dining room. The buffet is built along
the wall to the left of the opening
from the living room. The kitchen
and pantry occupy part of the house
by themselves. Every convenience is
included in the design of this part Of
the house. A special feature is the re-
frigerator iced from the little rear en-
try.
Two bedrooms and bath are in
Guided in the second floor design. The
bathroom is built into a dormer and is
large and well lighted. The rooms are
made Independent without the loss Of
a foot of space by bringing the stair
way up in the middle Of the house.
