FORTUNE FOR SIGN PAINTERS
Engineers Have Searched Long for
Man Believed to Possess Most
Valuable Secret.

The living worth Of good work is al.
ways recognized, even in small things.
Sign painters do not usually achieve
wealth or fame, yet, it is declared,
fortune awaits the man who painted
sign at Harper's Ferry, on the Bal
timore & Ohio railroad, shortly after
the completion Of the line at that
point.
For years the engineers have been
trying to ascertain who mixed the
paint and applied 1t to the sign, which
was placed in position at the Harpers
Ferry station many years ago. The
summers heat and winters storms
have in no way dimmed the luster Of
the paint used to make the words
"Harper's Ferry They stand out as
boldly as the day they were formed by
the artists brush.
The wood around the letters has
been worn about One-sixteenth of an
inch by sand beaten against it by
fierce winds, but the letters have with
stood the elements.
1t is asserted that no paint manu-
featured nowadays is equal in dura-
bility to that which was applied to
the old sign, and if the person who
mixed it is stiN living and will take
advantage of the secret he possesses
as to its composition it is said he can,
by engaging in the paint-manufactur-
ing business, soon accumulate wealth.

their dimensions are shown by the floor
plan that accompanies the perspec.
tive. The entrance off the porch leads
into the living room, which extends
across the front of the house. This
room is ~ feet wide and 20 feet 6
inches long. An open fireplace at the
end OF the room and the three extra
long windows VIII make this a CHEEKY
sitting room.
A second entrance from the porch
leads to the dining room, which is con-
nected with the living room by a
double cased opening. The dining
room also is Of good size-12 by 18
feet-and has three large windows
Back Of the dining room is the kltch-
en-. II feet 6 inches by II feet, and
of the kitchen are a pantry and
breakfast nook. The latter is a con-
venience that all housewives like, as
1t saves many steps and much early
morning work. The breakfast nook,
as here designed, is unusually good,
as 1t has windows on two Sides and
is cheerful place for the least at
tractive meal Of the day.
A-second door from the dining room
leads to a short hall, out Of which
opens the bathroom and the two bed
rooms. The, bathroom is so located
that 1t Is convenient to all the rooms
Of the bungalow. One of the bed
rooms is a corner room, IL feet 6
inches by 9 feet 6 inches; the other is
slightly larger. II feet 6 inches by 10
feet.
The basement extends under the
whole house and provides space for
the heating plant, fuel storage, laun-
dry, and other storage.
Considered from the several stand
points Of comfort. beauty and cost, this
home building design is an excellent
one, and the family that builds from it
will have bungalow of which they
may be proud.
Building a home is undoubtedly the
most satisfactory way to ger a place
in which to live. Not only is the
home a person builds for himself and
family great deal more satisfactory

RUBBER COMPANY
TO SO. AMERICA

The Goodyear Tire & Rubber CON-
pany has completed arrangements
with the Brazilian government for
the erection of a South American
factory to be located just outside the
city of Rio Janiero.
Construction of the foundations
has already begun and it is believed
that the new factory will be COM
pleted within year and half. The
factory group will consist OF four
buildings built to allow for adequate
expansion. AT first 1000 employees,
mostly Brazillians, will operate the
plant, which will probably have a
capacity of about 1900 tires and
tubes a day.
Training of the personnel that will
be sent to Brazil from Akron as
the skeleton organization will be
started within the next few weeks.
In accordance with its policy, Good
year will allow employees to make
application for connection with the
South American factory and those
selected will be enrolled in classes
for instruction in Portuguese, the
language of the country.
The output of this concern will be
pneumatic and solid tires, and also
mechanical goods similar to the lines
now manufactured in other Good
year factories.
Negotiations for the purchase of
a site were begun two years ago
with the Brazilian government, but
were broken off by the entrance of
the United States into the world
war. Difficulties in obtaining ship
ping facilities cause dthe postpone
ment of negotiations until recently.
Acquisition of the South American
factory marks another step in the
policy of the company,
which already has plants in Akron,
Los Angeles and Toronto, Canada.

The name Pacific ocean was given
by Ferdinand Magellan, or Magazines.
He was the first to sail over it. PrOba-
bly, he is entitled to rank, next to Co.
lumbus, as the worlds greatest naviga-
tor. In 1920 he discovered and passed
through the strait which bears his
name, and entered the mighty ocean
on which his was the first ship to sail.
He crossed that ocean and discovered
the Philippine islands, where he was
killed in an encounter with the natives.
After his death the survivors kept on,
discovered Borneo and reached the Mo-

Hope and returned to Europe along
the Atlantic coast of Africa. Thus

Planning to build a home now is at
its height. That is, those who are 60
ing to have new house this year are
busily engaged scanning plans of all
kinds, with the desire to select the
sort of home they will build, so, that
the contractor may get it started at
the earliest possible moment.
The selection of the home building
design Is one of the most important
steps in securing a home. For upon
the proper picking of the design of
both the exterior and the interior de-
ponds the happiness and comfort of
the family after the new house is oc.
cupied.
There are several things that should
be considered in selecting the design
and securing the plans for a new home.
First, how much money is available?
Second, how many are there in the
family, and third, the size and loca-
ton of the lot.

and begins Juggling at these same knots
we cry anathema on the deliverer.
There is good reason to suspect any

matrimony.
There is likewise every reason to
believe these mods will be inward and
invisible. 1t may be the thing for a
literary woman, a novelist, a romancer
to speak out so in church, but in the
staid pews of approved marital resig-
nation such mutiny would never do.
The custom is to carry on until the
ship falls apart, then let the courts at
tend to the salvage.
1T is sheerest folly for man to

an actress, even a business woman
with an intensive interest in her
work" Miss Wellman calmly ignored
the fact she was pronouncing judg-
ment against herself.

does he agree with you on this
point?"
A mischievous smile danced for a
moment in the big eyes. The small

A small person with black eyes and
jade beads may have some rather
daring ideas on the subject of matri-
mony a la mode.
She may also have the gift OF pen
to express these ideas in a way to
send them seething through the minds
and hearts of less courageous disci
pies of the newer and freer feminin-
ity.
Rita Wellman-Mrs. Leo in the
home life-has the big eyes and the
jade beads and the gifted pen, a per-
feet background for her latest hectic
juggling of men and women and
matrimony, a novel she has chosen to
call THE Wings of Desire"
Vermillion is a favorite color of the
characters in Miss Wellman's story.
The color is decidedly well chosen.
And yet to meet the quiet little lady
with the big gray-brown eyes, lecked
with tawny shades and hints of that
same Jade green which encircles her
throat, one would interpret her in
shades of violet or misty grays or
yelled rose.
Labels are so misleading!

l didn't think, at least not out loud.
Having made such an assertion, the
speaker was in duty bound to tack on
an explanation.
Husband and wife should maintain
separate establishments" continued
Miss Wellman. They should not be
forced together, always under the
same roof. Why mince matters?
Why go on ut.ering platitudes and
practising gross hypocrisy just because
it is the custom so to do?
Honestly now, how many men
have you known whose main purpose
in life outside of business hours was
to frame up excuses for lodging the
home dinner hour? You have heard
them dozens of times

cial side of his nature dominate. She
is as much a part Of him as his right

This is real marriage, union Of the
body, mind and soul. The pity of 1t
is such marriages should be so rare.
Men. you know, are much more
conventional than women. A man
meets a woman he desires, in whom
he sees the symbol Of home. To him
she signifies the dignity of his own

home to represent him in social life.
1t is the conventional thing to have.
He obtains the woman and the home
through marriage. Marriage is the
conventional way Of acquiring them.
These. l believe, are the true rea-

ventionality driving the marriage
