A SAFE VACATION
DIR. Earle G. Brown Urges Pre-
cautions in Health.
He Gives Advice as to Food.
Climate and Conditions.

Y Those who guard their health care
fully at home often get careless about
1T when they take vacations. They
do not consider thoroly enough mat

lions and the likelihood of contract

of those who choose camping as a way
of spending their vacation. Advice to
campers is excellent as given by DR..

WARNS AGAINST THE "UGLIEs'
Architect Gives Wise Advice to Thos,
Contemplating the Establish
ment Of a Home.


The architects have passed through
six lean years. Had 1t not been for
The "uglies' that were erected they
tirtuaiiy would have been idle. Re
modelling ''uglies" into beautiful homes
IS about all the architects have done.
However, IL these houses had been
designed and constructed right at first
the remodeling would not have been
necessary.
"Uglies," like the billbOards, are
doomed to destruction; popular senti.
nent demands that they be destroyed
That the home must be beautiful,
both interior and exterior is readily
recognized by every mother, as she
'ealizes that it Is the most essential
element of the home and it is that
which causes children to love and
cherish 1t. That 1t should be furnished
beautifully and should have good
pictures goes without mention. Well
designed furniture may be handed
iown through generations, and well
planned and designed homes increase
II value with age. We have houses
In this country, built two hundred
years ago, that are used today as
samples Of good work and architects
ook to them for precedent.
Young people who are about to
ouild should consider 1t with grea,
care, as building is serious thing
They should invest in good magazines
recognized for their good taste, study
thoroughly every article, read also
every criticism of these articles anC
hen invest only in expensive things
n fact, those things they think they
cannot afford to purchase; then bu!
one article instead of six that they
think they need. In this way the!
will have established a nucleus from
which they cannot depart Moreove
!. they will never desire a change, be
cause beautiful things remain beauti
tul.
To those contemplating the estab
ishment of home l would say selec
your lot with view to the future de
yelopment of it. Do not invest II
cheap additions that have been lai,
out on lines of the least resistance
Select place surrounded by romanti
conditions. Select a large lot, bull,
small house, add to it as you pro
gress and be sure that the lot ha
