consists essentially of long con-
crete floor protected by roof of cor
responding shape and size, supported
by Corinthian pillars OF concrete, near
ly Is feet high. The roof is shaped
like turtleback and is pierced by
two large circular skylights, set with
transparent glass. These lights are
particularly useful when rain or wind
requires the letting down of canvas
curtains on one or more sides Of the
house. Taut wires. strung vertically
either side of each pillar serve to
hold these curtains in place when un-
furled, each edge being set with eye
let's through which the wires pass.
As has been stated, the floor is
of concrete. This is laid over net
work of hollow tile which lies only
a short distance below the surface
This hollow tile is connected to hot
air furnace located in basement oc.
cupying portion Of the area beneath
the house. The passage Of air through
the hollow tile serves to keep the
floor warm, and so supplies heat.
The home is, in effect, one large
veranda While there are no parti,
tions, there has been constructed at
one side, midway between the ends,
a series of booths or recesses, two
tiers high, with openings at the front
across which hang heavy curtains.
These are the dressing rooms for the
entire family and here are dressers,
