Effect, Weather and Fire Resistant.

This little house is regular love
nest. 1t has that most desirable fea-
ure-individuality. 1t does not look
as though it were built in long rows
by contractor, but that it was planned
for a regular home by intelligent peo-
pie. With the proper surroundings in
the way of trees and shrubbery, this
little home is a constant delight. The
plan is so well arranged that house
keeping will not be difficult without a
maid
In planning a heating system, It
will not be necessary to excavate the
whole basement, the one chimney be-
ing so situated that it will care for
the kitchen as well as the furnace
underneath. The cellar stairway leads
down from the kitchen and there is
a stairway leading up from the rear
bedroom to the half-story overhead
and the problem of storage is thus
cared for very nicely.
The whole exterior is stuccO and
reinforced with triangular mesh gal
vanized steel which laps around the
corners, making a very solid and sub
stantial house which will never crack.

Bureau of Mines Tries an Innovation

take up with the industries peculiar
to its districts where the stations are
located the most pressing problems
that have baffied them, especially
those involving the treatment of low
grade ores, many of them heretofore
useless, and turn them into CONNER
cial processes of value to the nation.
So successful have these methods of
solving commercial problems been, ac-
cording to the bureau of mines, that
at present the bureau has agreements
for experimental work with 10 indus
trial concerns, u different UNIVERSE
ties and with state agencies in Ii
states.
These cooperative agreements with
the bureau embrace many different
activities. For instance, there is an
experiment station at Bartlesville,
Okla, devoted entirely to the work of
the petroleum industry.
Seeking to find additional sources of
motor fuel for the rapidly increasing
number of automobiles, the bureau has
entered into cooperative agreements
with the states of Utah and Colorado
to develop the oil shale industry.

One Grand Jag to Get Rid of the Stuff

THE plans for enforcing prohibition
/ in the United States were pre-
scented to the house ways and means
committee the other day, two of them
by prohibition advocates and the 9TH
er by Representative Joseph r. Ford
ney of Michigan, committee chairman.
Wayne B. Wheeler, counsel for the
Anti-Saloon league, suggested tax
of $500 a gallon on the whisky, the
indicating of ali stocks in bond to
render it unfit for beverage purposes,
and genuine enforcement of the law
by at least one federal district attor-
ney.
Prohibition Commissioner John r.
Kramer recommended that all liquor
now in the government warehouses be
concentrated in three or four ware
houses in Kentucky, where heavy
guards can be placed and illegal with
drawals be prevented. He said that
100000 gallons have been with
drawn since January IA, 1920, leaving
100000 gallons in storage.
Representative Fordney said that
it might be turned loose by the gov
eminent, sold to the buyers, and the

The air service last year asked for
SS0,O00000 and will ask this session of
congress for $6O,O0O,OOO. Senators on
the military affairs committee and
members of the house military COM
mittee said that nothing like this much
money could be allowed in view of
the pressing need for cutting govern
mental expenses.
Aviation activities in the navy are
scattered through half a dozen bu-
reaus and efforts are being made to
obtain legislation establishing bu-
reau of naval aeronautics, headed by
a rear admiral.
In the meantime experts declare
that the nation is tagging farther and
farther behind European countries.
The United States is so i'll equipped
as to be virtually defenseless and in
commercial navigation it has scarce
ly begun to start.
The army air force is inadequate
and most of the plants are either OBJ
solete or opsolescent. The navy air
force is primitive compared with tnat

going to attract much attention at

matter, in the opinion OF Secretary
Payne of the Interior department, that
he begins his 1920 annual report with
its discussion. He says, first thing:

The British government is showing
much greater interest in the eStab-
fishing of trade relations with Russia
and in the renewed menace of spread
ing Bolshevism than in Frances
alarm over the failure of Germany
tia of Bavaria and East Prussia.
Italy, too, is not inclined to become
excited over the latter matter, AND
consequently France has not yet act
ed on her threat to occupy more Ger
man territory. The Bavarians do not
believe the rest Of the world would
permit further seizure of German ter
ritory, and they think France will
hesitate to occupy the Ruhr district
because such a move would tend to
unite the factions in Germany and
arouse a patriotic spirit, resulting,
perhaps, in bloodshed. The German
government is not ready to resume the
discussion Of reparations and has
asked that the reopening of the con-
ference be delayed. Both these mat
tiers will be discussed by the allied
premiers in Paris on January 10, and
they will also take up the question of
the future attitude of the allies to-
ward Greece. The Greek government
is now showing a very conciliatory
spirit and is ready to give the allies
full guarantees that Greece will carry
out the provisions of the treaty of
Sevres.

Eamonn de Valera, having reached
Dublin safely by way Of Manchester,
was preparing a manifesto in which,
according to an authoritative source.
he would deny that the Sim Fein is
making peace overtures to England.
He is quoted as saying ne would listen
to proposals of the English govern
ment if they were based on recogni-
ton Of the Irish republic. The Brit
ish government, on the other hand,
lets it be known that it would be will
ing to confer with De Valera, but
only as a private citizen, all ques-
tons of separation being excluded
from the discussion. So that situa-

any hope of early settlement.
