to get rid of Bates and Leavens.
Bq1ce. the present Road Com

Leavens is one of the most

bedroom. Each room gets light from
windows on two sides. All Of the
bedrooms are fitted with space saw

of these closets is about Is. inches.
and the width about 20. Compared to

There Is a high attic above which

Ii represents an ideally efficient type
OF dwelling and can be built for a
reasonable amount because of the SIM

reason to believe that the long de

have their designs ready will get the
jump on the rest Of the field and will
not be liable to delay because OF short

I'm my own home am king" Is the
sentiment that makes every home
owner thrill with pride. Independ-
ence and certainty are what every
family want, and these can be OBJ
tanned through the ownership of a
home. The man who owns home
invariably makes the more reasonable
citizen, because he takes deep inter-
est In civic affairs. His taxes are an
important consideration In his life, and
unless he watches the affairs of his
town, votes regularly and takes more
than newspaper interest In matters
of state, he is liable to be affected
quite keenly.
Buying or building a home is mat
ter Of individual taste and require
ments. Small families lean to the
small home or bungalow type. Here
they can get four. five or six rooms,
ample for their needs and on the
same floor. But there are many peo-
pie who want the bedrooms upstairs
away from the noise and activity of
the living rooms. Moreover the large
family needs a large house, but In
building this house they want perma-
nent comfort, not something that is
pretty and freakish.
Simplicity of design, economy of con-
struction and strength are the out
standing qualities of the home shown

The dying Scot tongue is shown in
the last Scottish census. The number
of females In the population exceeded
that OF males BY 1s5.4s2. Persons
able TO speak Gaelic only number TO-
314. Of whom 1880 are In Ross-shire.
1890 in Inverness-shire, and 500 In
Argyllshire. Outside these three coun-
ties only 1876 persons have been re-
turned as speaking Gaelic but not
English. Those able to speak Gaelic
and English number 151.159. A steady
decline during the last 80 years Is
shown by these figures. In 1891. 6s
per cent OF the total population Of
Scotland were able to talk Gaelic; the
corresponding figure 10 now SO per
