lided. The big a was rolled over
two or three times and the driver

Ex-President Taft, who was one of
the original pushers for the organiza-
tion Of league OF nations. and mas
been faithfully advocating the ratifi-
cation of the league by the senate:
has been convinced of the necessity of
making reservations in the league
treaty ss presented. He proposes six
changes which he thinks wonld not
affect tho main purpose of the league,
and would safeguard the interests of
this country. The reservations pro.
posed provide that this country may
withdraw from the league by giving
two years notice without any condi-
tions to be imposed by other members
of the league, that self governing col
onies of any government already rep
resented in the league shall not have
representation, the functioning of Ar
ticle x to be purely domestic and not
within the authority of the league,
the Monroe doctrine to be upheld as it
has been interpreted by the United
States, and the United States to give
notice that it will withdraw from the
league in ten years without waiver of
right to retire at On earlier time. The
adoption of these reservations would
safeguard the United States against
the possibility of being exploited in
the interest Of other countries. but
while the supporters Of the league as
it stands, insist that there is no dam
ger Of such exploitation, they oppose
the reservations that would insure it.

By AYMAR EMBURY ii.
Most Famous Small
House Architect.


Houses built on narrow lots are apt
to be very deep in plan. This leads to
the using Of a roof which is entirely
too large for the frontage.
One way that has been found to get
away from this high roof has been
to place a short side Of the gable at
the rear and then run the roof down
over the front porch.
In doing this it is necessary. or
course, to introduce wide dorner IN
order to provide height in the front
bedroom. Great care must be taken
that this dormer be low and not too
wide or II will break up the main lines
of the roof.
The sides of the dormer should
be shingles and stained the same
color as the roof. In this way
the disturbing lines emphasized by
contrasting color are eliminated.
At the ends of the porch are
trellises formed with wide openings
so that a great deal of the view
would not be obscured and at the
same time giving a chance to have
vines to shade the porch.
The kitchen arrangements of this
house seem to work out especially
well, as the stairs leading from
the kitchen are also used in place
of an outside staircase. as they are
entered by a door from the service
walk. A pantry is provided which
is large enough for a refrigerator
which could be iced from the back
porch. There would still be room
for the ordinary storage of gro
ceries and dishes.
As most women object to the
heat given out by the hot water
boiler when installed in the kitchen
a device has been arranged for the
placing of this boiler in the cell
lar, where it is heated by small
stove similar to the laundry stove;
in fact in some cases by the laun-
dry stove itself.
Many of the so-called labor-saving
devices add so much to the cost and
size of the house that they are im-
possible to use in small buildings, but
