Every substantial American citizen,
man and woman, who is the head Of
family wants hOme-not merely
place in which to eat and sleep, but
Il real home. Homes are made by those
who live In them, and when the house
is owned by the tenants it is notice
able that great deal more attention
is paid to the interior comforts and the
exterior appearance than when it is
rented.
To own home is an ambition that
is going to be realized by many thou
sands of Americans this year. Already.

Friils Add to Cost.
The house, like a wOman's dress,
costs in proportion to the frills there
are ON it. Every angle there Is in the
framework means duplication of the
work of constructing the corners. The
bungalow has only -four corners, al
though there Is nothing plain about Its
exterior appearance. The building Is
&c feet wide and "a feet long. But 10
this has been added the sun parlor, II
by Z feet, and the hip roof, which take
away the plainness and make it an at
tractiye home.
Five rooms and bath and the sun
parlor comprise the space in this bun
galow Living room, dining room and
kitchen are ranged along one side and
two bedrooms with the bath between
them are on the other side.
A notable feature of the interior ar
rangement is the placing of the sun
parlor so that 1t is off both the living
and dining rooms, adding to both the

the campaign the federal officials are
waging TO bring about resumption
Of building of all kinds.
The average American family builds
but once in lifetime. The house that
is erected serves as the place where
the children are reared until they de-
part to establish home Of their own.
Building home, therefore, Is mat
ter that requires, deserves and usually
gets great deal of consideration be-
fore the type of house and its interior
arrangement finally are selected. Many
considerations, of course, influence the
prospective home owner in selecting
the plans for his home. To some it Is
question of getting what is wanted
irrespective Of the cost; to others the

comfort and convenience Of these two

comfort and convenience of these two
rooms.
A study of the floor plan will reveal
that this bungalow has some excellent
features in the arrangement of the
rooms. The living room is of good
size, II feet 6 inches, by 10 feet 3
inches. The arrangement of the win
dows, two in front and one at the side
make 1t light, pleasant room. En-
trance to the sun parlor is gained
through doorway at the end, while
there is colonnade between 1t and
the dining room.
The latter Is Of the exact size of the
living room, which, because Of the
colonnade opening. makes the two
rooms practically one.
The kitchen is practically square, be-
ing feet 6 inches. by 8 feet. OFF II is
q good-sized pantry on one side and
the stairs to the basement on the other.
The two bedrooms are each 0 feet
6 inches, by II feet 3 inches. Both
have closets and two large windows.
From this brief description there
may be gained some idea of the COM
fort and convenience this home will
bring to the owner. The housekeep-
er'S daily work is all confined to the
one floor, while the greatest portion
of that work is done on one side of the
house.
Heated at Small Cost.
There is one advantage in home
such ms this that will appeal to every
thrifty person. 1t will cost little to
heat it. The heating plant, of course,
will be located in the basement, which
extends under the whole of the house.
This, too, can be subdivlded so as to
provide the necessary places to. store
food, fuel and whatever is not in daily
use.

porch and the foundation the bunga-

LIBERAL PREMIUM AWARDS
AT CARROLL COUNTY FAIR

Two thousand dollars worth of pre-
miums were offered at the Carroll
county live stock show held in July.
The Breeders Association and farm
ers furnished $1,000 and the Chamber
of Commerce of Carrollton matched
this subscription dollar for dollar. The
men behind this county fair believe
that in point of premiums offered, and
of live stock shown, the Carroll coun-
ty fair compares quite favorably with
any of the other shows being held this
fall in the state. The winners at this
fair will be sent to the State Fair at
Sedalia in August.
