WORD WAS NOT UNFAMILIAR
Might Have Been Better If Youth Had
Found Out Something About
That Parrot.

Gen. Charles T. Menoher. the brave
commander of the brave Rainbow di-
vision. said at a dinner in Washing
tom:
''The civilian who tries to teach q
soldier how to conduct court-mArtial
reminds me of the young man who
tried to teach the parrot to talk.
'NThis young man said he knew all
about parrots, and guaranteed to- teach
bird-a bird he thought was young
and untrafned-to say hello
$50 he sat down in front of the par
rot and said, Hello, hello, hello'-fike
that-for IS minutes. The parrot
didn't pay him the slightest attention,
but when he got through it opened it's
eyes lazily. drawIed, Lime busy, ring
off and then closed its eyes again. p

articles. Easements of modern homes
usually are divided with full parti-
tions, which makes for cleanliness and
prevents the heating plant from warm
ing the storage rooms.
This design is equally suited for
country or city, except in the larger
cities where restrictions as to fire.
proof construction are in force. By it's
arrangement it has the efficiency of a
fve-room house, without the cost of the
extra room.
There are many good reasons Why
everyone who can should build horne.
The home owner is not lucky person,
but on the other hand, substantial
member of the community in which he
lives. He does not have the inconven-
fences that come from living in rent
ed house neither does he have to fear
that if he beauties the lawn or fur
nishes the house to suit his ideas that
it will be sold and his work and out
lay will be lost.
1t does not require great amount
of ready money to build home; but
it does require a considerable amount
of character to assume the burden of
paying for a home. However, as the
years go by that monthly sum that
heretofore has been spent for rent will
be paying for a home, and accumulat-
ing an asset that is as good as bank
account.
In building a home, care should be
exercised in selecting the lot with an
eye to its future value and in picking
the design for the house. A costly
house should not be built on an mex
pensive lot; neither should high
priced lot be secured as a site for an
inexpensive home. In the event that
the owner wants to sell, he will find
that in either of the cases mentioned
he will be a loser. A good proportion
of costs is about one-sixth-a $4,000
home on a $1,000 lot.

galow that will suit those who want
a home that is attractive to the eye
and has an interior arrangement that
provides the comfort and convenience
that are features of modern dwellings,.
This bungalow is 80 by SO feet 8
inches in dimensions This size is ex-
cellent for a lot of 80 or more feet in
width, as its breadth allows for plenty
of side yard, and its depth permits Of
large space both for front and rear
lawns and a garden. The addition of
a garage of the same architectural de-
sign rounds out fine home building
group.
Built of standard frame constructions
this bungalow is not expensive to
build. The hip roof, outside brick
fireplace and the arched roof over the
entrance all combine to give it an ex-
ceptionally attractive exterior Ex-
terror features also are the terrace on
either side of the entrance and the
small side porch.
The four rooms consist of combi-
nation living and dining room, kitchen
and two bedrooms. Off the kitchen
also there is a breakfast nook, to be
used by the family when alone.
The living room is of extraordinarily
large size for such a small house. The
dimensions are 20 by ID feet. Win

1t is always well to consult with an
architect and with the contractor and
material dealer before the plan finally
is decided on. All of these men are
experienced in home building and from
them will be gained many valuable
suggestions, both as to what to build
and the materials to be put into the
building. They take the ideas of the
prospective builder and turn out
plans that conform to them as nearly
as possible.
The greatest argument for home
building, however, is the comfort and
satisfaction that the owner gets out
of a place that is designed to suit his
tastes and located in a neighborhood
where the people he wants his family
to associate with live. These are what
make life worth living.

doWS on either side of the fireplace
and one on the terrace side make this
a sunny, pleasant room in winter and
permit plenty of ventilation in the
summer. Between the living room and
the kitchen is a good-siZed pantry,
with a china closet in one end and
table, under the window, in the other.
This arrangement gives the housekeep-
er easy access to the dishes and pro-
vides her with q serving table when
more formal meals are served in the
living room.
In one corner of the kitchen, which
is II by IL feet, there is breakfast
nook, with partitions half way to the
ceiling. Under the window is the din
ing table, while on either side are
built-in seats. This is cozy place
for the members of the family to have
breakfast and luncheon, and even din
ner if desired. Another popular ar
rangement in the kitchen is the sink
underneath the window. The entry
leading to the rear porch is of suffi-
Gent size to accommodate the ice
box, so that it can be iced without
going into any Of the rooms.
Ranged along the opposite side of
the house are two bedrooms, each Il
by IL feet with the bathroom be-
tween. A small hall connects the two
rooms. Entrance may be gained
either from the outside through the
front bedroom or through the hall from
the living room. 1t will be noted by a
study of the floor plan that a great
deal of closet space is provided.
The basement extends under the
whole house and provides room for

Decrease in Number Of Insane.

Decrease in Number OF insane.
The popular assumption that the
war has, or might have, caused an in
crease in insanity is not supported by
records of the Wisconsin State Hos
pital for the Insane at Mendoza, ac-
cording to an article by DR.. Frank L
Drake, superintendent.
A decrease during the period is
shown by the records, and the de-
crease, Doctor Drake believes, has less
to do with war conditions than to the
spread of prohibition.
During the period of the war the
number of admissions to the hospital
were, lib per cent less than in sim
liar period preceding the war. During
the periods the number of female adj
missions was the same as before,
whereas the number of men admitted
decreased So.
For the fiscal year ending June
30, 1913, the number of admissions Of
alcoholic insane was 43 as compared
with 80 for the year ending June 80,
1917. Here is reduction of 54.7 per
cent" writes Doctor Drake. "The in
creased cost of liquor following the
government prohibition and the rapid
extension of dry territory are facts
sufficiently strong to account for this
important change"
The manner in which decisions of
the insane follow current topics of So
cial interest, and the relation between
these topics and unstable mental
makeups as causes Of mental insanity
are discussed.

$4,000 sor Teachers Increase.

Much of the work of adjusting the
salaries of teachers has been worked
out by Regent CIough Gates, Superior,
the newly elected president of the
board. The legislature appropriated
$4,000 for increases in the salaries at
the normal schools for the coming
year. Of this sum about $4,000 was
available for increases of normal
school teachers. By reducing some Of
the faculty work and by consolida-
tions it has been possible to save over
$4,000 additional. which can be used
for increased teachers salaries.
