When the early settlers came to the
western continent they had certain
ideas on BODYBUILDING which they had
brought from Europe. In England
the predominating type Of architec-
ture was known as Georgian. 1t called
for simplicity and dignity and GER
tain quaintness that made hospitality
the cornerstone Of the home. Once
established in this country the settlers
began to carry out this same scheme
with some notifications. This devel-
opment led to what is known as CO.
lonial architecture. The colonial
home is as popular today, if not more
so, than century ago, and there is
no reason to believe that it will lose
Its hold upon the people in the years
to come. For fundamentally it en-
bodies all that goes to make the home
the center of life. Its delightful SIM
plicity, quaintness and comfort are lr-
resistible.
In the colonial home the entrance
Is one of the dominating features Of
the exterior treatment. 1t is the most
important element In the facade. Usu-
ally it consists Of white door with
fashioned knocker and narrow side
panels. If covered, the hood is sup
ported by white pillars such as those
shown in the picture. This house Is
an excellent example of colonial treat
ment and expresses very eloquently
the hospitality and comfort which are
found in a home Of this type. There
is something alluring about the white
elapboard siding (white seems to be
the standard color Of colonial houses

SIMPLE REMEDY FOR

Gas Strainers Clean.

"Carburetor troubles are many and
varied, but there are some which are
common, and. as rule, the remedy is
simple in these cases." says William H.
Stewart jr., president Of the Stewart
Automobile school, "A little water In
the gasoline will cause lot Of trouble.
Water Is heavier than gasoline and
settles at the bottom. Therefore. when
the fuel Is low in the tank, any water
is likely to be drawn into the car
buretor. lie H.. III ."s &ts
"The carburetor sometimes acts like
a man when imbibing too much liquid
refreshment. It has a tendency to be-
come ill. This indicates that the float
valve mechanism Is out of order. A
leaky float will cause the same trouble.
If the valve is to blame this may be
determined by looking at its seat. II
the seat is rough it should be carefully
ground in with oil and emery by TO
tating the spindle on it's seat. A bent
valve spindle will also cause flooding.
In this case remove the float, place the
spindle on a block Of wood and
straighten the bent part with few
light taps from lead hammer.
"Should the engine balk suddenly
an. the ignition system be found to
be in good shape, the feed pipe Is
probably choked. Open the drain valve
of the carburetor and if the fuel does
not continue to emerge In steady
stream after the float chamber Is
emptied the trouble is in the pipe.
unscrew the unions at each end Of the
pipe line and run wire through its
length. Also make sure that all the
gas strainers are clean, both at the
vacuum tank and carburetor.
"The set-screw on the butterfly valve
sometimes becomes loose. This trouble
Is easily found, inasmuch as the engine
will fall to respond to the movement
of the throttle. The supply valve in
the feed pipe at the tank end should
fit snugly in its seat, otherwise it may
Jar partly shut and cut off the flow of
gasoline. A leak in the intake pipe
will admit too much air in the cylin-
ders and result in poor mixture,
which cannot be set by changing the

were made to the British government

it must come up for decision by the
mixed religious commission created
by the treaty of Sevres to decide on

The Italian claim is based on the
