are conducting "Home Building Saw
ings clubs" and thousands of members
have started to save consistently for
homes of their own. The plan Is simply
that those who want homes of their
own begin to save certain sums at
stated intervals, weekly or monthly.
When the savings have reached the
amount required for the first payment
on the home, the house is erected and
the owner lives in it while paying the
balance of the cost in monthly install
ments. just rs the renter pays his
landlord. The difference Is that with
In a few years the home is paid for
and belongs to the family that lives in
ii.
Every member of these "Home Saw
ings clubs should be deciding on the
sort of home that he wants and of the
design for that home. for planning
the home that Is to be built should not
be done hurriedly. It should he re-
membered that the home as finally
planned and built will be lived in for
a number of years, unless the owner
should decide to sell, and the design
should be selected accordingly. There
are thousands of good house designs
that are easily o~btainable. A consul
tation with the banker, the lumber
dealer, the local architect, or the build
ing contractor will secur for the pros
pective builder designs of homes of
the sort that he thinks he would like
to have. A study of these designs
will give the home builder many good
ideas of home planning, and will aid
him materially in picking the home
that he wants to spend his money for.
Building a home Is the best move
that any man of family working on a
salary can make. II not only gives
him n real home that he owns, but II
enables him to save his money. and in
the course of a few years he has a
most valuable asset. And while he is
accommodating this asset he has the
satisfaction of living in his own home

The ~present-day home builder is to
ne congratulated. In the homes that
are designed and constructed in this
generation there has been a complete
change in the idea that a house to
Oe comfortable has to have innumer-
able rooms that are seldom used.
The modern home contains only as
nany rooms as the wner can use con
t~inuously, but those rooms are design
ed so that they give the maximum in
comfort, and at the same time do not
o~verburden the housekeeper with work.
And what is of greatest Importance is
that this idea of conservation of space
without sacrifice of comfort has made
it possible to build a home more
a,heaply.
The home shown in the accompany
sng illustration embodies the features
mentioned. This is a small house that
is not costly to build, but it contains
accommodations for the average fam
lily, and the rooms are so arranged
that it is al exceptionally comfortable
and convenient home. Also it is a
home that can be erected on a COM
paratively small lot, as its dimensions
are only 81 by 81 feet.
AS will be seer by the perspective
view this is a most attractive home
from the exterior. The roof starting

Ora m a
Cup From Nowhere" Has Its
First Performance at the
Comedy
By Haywood Broun

Up From Nowhere" by Booth Tark-
ington and Harry Leon Wilson, is a
disappointing play salted with some
excellent material Neither Mr.. Tark-
ington nor Mr.. Wilson will ever write
half so we'll for the stage as he does
for the printed page. Mr.. Harrington,
IN particular, overestimates the neces.
sity for exaggeration in the theatre.
In attempting to heighten his color
and broaden his lines he often does
more than exaggerate. He falsfies
values in a manner quite foreign to his
work in the novel and the short story.
Another handicap under which Mr..
Harrington labors when he comes into
the theatre is that he is much more
adept in the creation Of men than
of women. With the exception of the
heroine of his latest novel Dora, I
think she is, he has seldom done
iirst-class portrait of a woman. And
the theatre demands women to a much
greater extent than the novel The
authors have tried to centre the in
terest of "Up From Nowhere" on a
man. and in selecting Norman Trevor
to play the role they nave gained at
the outset certain distinction and
grace not too common in the theatre.
The role which Trevor is called upon
TO play is that of an adventurcr who
has managed to gather moss as he
rolled. His son is an effete young tuft
hunter Of type more often to be
found in a Harrington play thau
in the world outside. The youngster
is intent on marrying the daughter
of an old and decayng family. and in
are the girls motives the father makes
love to her himself, and, Of course,
ends by falling in love on his own
account.
Mr.. Trevor was perhaps a shade too
elegant to quite fit the authors con-
ception of the role, and yet by right of
his own shoulders and waist and easy
movement he was a more authentically
romantic figure than the part provided d
for him. After all Harrington and
Wilson have had recourse to much
that is conventional in their effort to
create a romantic figure. We have al
ways felt that the mystery and lure
Of true adycnturer lay in certain
taclturnity, but George Washington
Silver, the Trevor role, is always
juggling coral island in the air, or a
ruby mine or a yellow moon. This is
the stuff of which romantic fiction is
made, but not true romance. A man is
not necessarily of ,hc fellowship be
cause he can talk Of Shanghai or
Tripoli. There is a deal more romance
south.of Fifty-ninth Street than east
OF Suez if the truth were known. Ro-
nance is matter of spirit rather thar.
Of longitude, and Harrington and Will
son have captured only the externals
Of that spirit.
But in spite OF this handicap Trevor
is generally an alluring and often an
amusing hgure. and he carried his big
scene Oft with grace and fire, too. The
play was dull when he was missing
Throughout its pace is disturbingly
