CUTS COST OF CONSTRUCTION
Design Shown Here Is Built of Con-

Equally Well in Frame, Brick,

BY WILLIAM A. RADFORD.

Mr.. William A. Radford will answer
questions and give advice FREE OF
COST on all subjects pertaining to the
subject of building, for the readers of this
paper. On account of his wide experience
as Editor, Author and Manufacturer, he
is, without doubt, the highest authority

While many people prefer the one
room, so called condensed apartment
of the large apartment buildings in
the cities, and others like the small,
unique and original bungalow brought
from the West Coast a few years ago,
great many still hold a profound re-
gard for the familiar and ever-pOpular
square lined, hipped roof home of
many rooms, the home that always
gives the impression of bigneSS, com
fort, and substantial security. This
home is found in the large and small
cities, suburbs, small towns, villages
and on the farms. 1t has it's support
erS everywhere and will continue to
be built for many years to come.
That is why we are showing a pic
ture of an excellent example of this
type. In this case the house is built
of concrete blocks, although the same
design may be constructed of frame,

brick, hollow tile and stuccO. There
are no freakiSh corners, expensive in
nOvatiOnS that tend to increase costs
which are high enough as it is. In
fact the contractor can build this kind
of home as reasonably as any. Con
crete block is growing in favor be-
cause of it's attractive exterior ap-
pearance and insulating features. The
hollow air space prevents extreme
cold from penetrating the walls in
the winter and likewise stops eXces-
sive heat from getting in during the
warm months. Moreover it is easily
laid and quickly. This block is smooth
faced. The foundation is poured con-
crete.
One Of the appealing features Of
this home, one that indicates it's COM

Open a Dante Year.

The great poet, Dante Alighieri,
died on September IA, 1921, and the
other day there was inaugurated at
Ravenna, Italy, Dante year." to end
on the six hundredth anniversary of
his death, next year.
The inauguration ceremony took
place at Ravcnna, Italy, the minister
of public instruction and a number of
personalities prominent In the politi-
cal, literary and artistic worlds being
present. The function included a SOL
emn procession to the church of San
Francisco, where the poet was buried,
and great meeting at which several
speeches were made, notably by the
minister and by the mayor of Trent,
representing the newly redeemed ter
ritOries.

Directly in the rear of the living
room and joining it by large open
doorway is the dining room, slightly
smaller in size, 13 by Is feet 6 inches,
looking out into the rear through a
large triple window Another large
double hung window on the side pro-
vides additional light. The dining
room is connected with the kitchen by
a small door on one side. In the con-
structiOn of modern homes the kitch-
en- is considered one of the most i'm

efficiently it will cause her whole
lot of unnecessary work and make
her home life decidedly more difficult

On the upper floor are the four bed
rooms, small cheerful well-lighted
rooms of about equal size and each
containing exceptionally large clothes
closets. These bedrooms are grouped
about central hall. The bathroom Is
also located on this floor.
There are many features in this sub
stantial home that will appeal to the
man of family who wants plenty of
breathing space. Moreover this type
of house is very economical in cost.
This is due to the absence of frills Of
any kind which always mean extra
expense. In these days of high costs,
if people planning on homes would
overlook many of the whims which
they may want to incorporate in their
new home they would find it quite

The Presbyterian Ladies
Have Another Big Success

The May Supper given on Tuesday
evening last by the ladies of the
Presbyterian Church in their church
parlor, was well attended and proved
to be one of the most enjoyable af-
fairs of the kind ever experienced in
Cur city. The menu was an entirely
new one for Pocomoke City and it
proved very popular one. AS is
usually the case with these ladies the
service was of a high order in all of
its appointments and they have adj
tied another success to their already
long list. The evening was somewhat
inclement and by reason of this fact
the attendance was not as large as it
otherwise would have been. However,
they had u good crowd and the enter
prise netted them a good sum.

Mr.. Samuel S. Holland
Reported As Improving

Reports from the condition of Mr..
Samuel S. Holland are now very en-
couraging, so We have been informed.
MIR. Holland, it will be remembered,
was seriously hurt in fall from a
house roof some weeks ago and since
that time has been confined to his
home and for most of the time was a
great sufferer. His illness has been
watched with very great interest b.
our people, for Mr.. Holland is man
who is generally beloved in POGO
moke City. Under the care of his
physician, DR.. r. Lee Hall, together
with good nursing, his condition has
gradually improved and it is now
thought that he will soon be able TO
be about our town again and look af-
ter his accustomed business. This bit
Ct news will be received with great
delight by his many friends here and
elsewhere on the peninsula, where he
is so we'll and favorably known.

COFFEE CONSUMPTION EXCEEDS
PRE-WAR RATE IN AMERICA
Imports Almost Equal to High Record
OF Last Year.
By The Washington Herald ,Econoni.t1

net imports per capita. This year,
however, we viii probably lead by
considerable margin, since we
will import nearly half of the total
world crop, which is somewhere
around 2.7OO, 100000, pounds.
The production centers In Brazil,
since the area required is small and
can be readily expanded when the
market will absorb all Increased
output. The price has at times
been high for brief periods, but the
crop may easily be over-produced,
with DISASTROUS effects on the
planters New planting has not
been followed for some time in
Brazil, with the result that there
appears to be a shortage in pros
pect II consumption continues to
grow as 1t has during the last two
years. .....
The history Of coffee price fiuc-
tuation Is one of successive disas-
ters As early as 1856 the average
import price was about 9 cents a
pound. Then in 1875 prices arose
to over 10 cents, which was fol-
lowed by q drop to the old Scent
level. Then high prices prevailed
from 1887 to 1895 and production
was stimulated. The result was
over-production and the market
fell to a new low level of about I
cents, and remained there for a
decade. Brazilian growers failed
la great numbers. The. govern
ment placed a tax on new plant
ings and made great efforts to
avoid loss by buying up the crop
h. a.
vance. Efforts to develop coffee
lated by the high prices resulted in
failures, due to the break in the
market. The use OF coffee was not
increasing fast enough to save the
situation.
During the later war-period the
wholesale price of coffee arose
again to over 16 cents a pound in
191s-1s20, but Is now declining and
again is fairly steady at around II
cents. 1t is interesting to note that
the time of highest consumption
came at the time of highest price.
Possibly the search for non-alco-
holic drinks has something to do
with 1t.
Coffee is not an important item
in the food expense since the ave-
rage cost is about Sc per capita
retail. The price is, not likely to
rise to the war levels. again be-
cause of the more numerous pro-
ducers in tropical districts who
are seeking a market for their
products.
The leading countries producing
coffee are shown by the imports
from the following countries:
