the terrace mentioned above. Diagon.
ally across from the living room is
glass door opening into the dining
room which faces out on the terrace
and gets the benefit of light from win
dows on three sides. The terrace is
artistically enhanced by brick columns
joined by lattice work and a very
charming quaint gate.
The dining room is IA by IL with a
built-in buffet. 1t is connected with
the kitchen, which Is quite small. In
this room many built-in features pro-
vide the necessary equipment, such as
icebox. cupboards and range.
In the rear left corner of the house
are two bedrooms smaller than the
master room in the front. They are
each 10 by IL feet. They open into a
hall which runs from the front vesti-
bule to the bathroom.
There is something about this
charming little bungalow home that
stamps 1t as being worth while. 1t is
inviting without and coy within, a
home that will satisfy.
A concrete trackway along the side
OF the house leads the way to a small
frame garage in the rear, without
which no house, in this age of automo-
biles, is complete.

RARE BEASTS IN SYDNEY zoo
New South Wales Has the Only Spe-
cimenc of the PIatypus and
the Echidna.

In the geological laboratory at Sgd
ney, N. S. W., may be seen living spe-
cimens of the platypus and the echid-
ma, the sole surviving links between
reptiles and mammals. The platypus is
a nocturnal animal found in the quiet
upper reaches of rivers, and it still plen-
tiful there, despite the demand for it's
fur. 1t is now vigorously protected
by law. 1t feeds on fresh-water
shrimps, aquatic snails, and worms.
Its duck bill is an extremely delicate
and sensitive structure, as the platy-
pus finds much of it's food by touch
in the soft mud. For breeding pur-
poses the platypus builds tortuous
tunnel in the river bank, sometimes
SO feet long. At the end a chamber
is excavated and nest made of roots,
gum leaves, and reeds. Usually two
eggs are laid, which are attached to

Returning from France, Reverend
Blackman resumed his pulpit In
Chanute, Kan. One of his first acts
was to attend public dance. He
didn't dance, but thoroughly enjoyed
the fun. A protest came from his con-
gregation and he resigned. His resig-
nation wasn't accepted.
Then he began doing other things.
He rugged up a gymnasium in the
basement of his church and gave box
ing lessons to the boys of the Sunday
school. The church liked 1t.
Reverend Blackman refused offers
from larger churches to stay with his
pastorate in Chanute. His view Of
Sunday "blue laws" is characteristic: :
ITO my mind the advocacy of such
laws only serves to cheaper religion in
the minds of the masses and tends to
push it back into the superstitions of
the past. What is rest and relaxation
to the farmer may not be such to the
bank clerk"

Autos Named, Like Boats.

Autos in Paris are beginning to dis
pute yachts of the sea and fleet horses
of the tracks the right TO individual
tiles of their own. Here and there one
sees an imposing car bearing on the
radiator the name chosen by the own
er, perhaps fanciful, perhaps that of
some dear one, and the fad is rapidly
becoming popular. Names of persons
thus far are more often seen than those
OF poetical, historical or literary al
fusion, and already the new fashion
is giving rise to good-natured gossip.

Investigation DiscIoses Fact That Ma

Single Bessedness.

Three years after the war GIG per

American, French or German girls, 10
per cent have children.
The house owners totaled 1873 per
cent and the business owners aggre-

per cent are able to drive their own
automobiles.
Legion posts, too, have the billet

COMPENSATION BILL TO PASS
Favorable Action by Congress
During Present Session.

Cash, paid up insurance, vocational
training, farm or home aid and land
settlement are options offered World
war veterans in the fve-fold adjusted
compensation bill which congress is
expected to pass during it's present
session.
According to National Commander
MacNider Of the American Legion, who
bases his statement on information
given him by Senator McCumber,
North Dakota, author of the bill in
the senate, and Republican Fordney,
Michigan, who introduced the bill into
the house, the legislation will become
law during February, 1922.
The measure will become effective
in July, 1922, as originally provided,
Mr. MacNider believes. In connection
with the bill, it is significant that the
Legion has termed it adjusted COM
pensation" from tna first as against
the common ter of bonus"
When the bill becomes law, each ex-
service man or woman will be entitled
to any one of the following options:
(1) Adjusted service pay, at the rate
of ST day for home service and $1.25
for foreign service. Maximum of $500
for man without overseas service; 1925
for man with overseas service.
(2) Adjusted service certificate ESQ
called insurance featured, paid-up
2O-year endowment policy. The face
value of this policy will be 338 times
the amount that would be received in
cash. The face value of this policy
would be payable to the veteran at
the end of 20 years, or if he dies be-
fore the expiration of 20 years, the
face value would be paid to the benefi-
ciary of the policy. Loan values are
also provided for.
60 Vocational training aid of $1.25
day while taking a course in voca-
tional training. The amount thus paid
In no case would exceed 40 per cent
of what would have been paid in cash.
(4) Farm or home aid, 140 per cent
of what would be paid under option
No. 1, if the money is used to pur-
chase, improve or make payments on
approved farm or city or suburban
home.
90 Land settlement.
(A) Provides for the establishment
Of reclamation projects for the develop
ment and improvement of vacant land.
This may be government land or may
be land purchased by the government.
If possible, projects will be located in
each state, the state paying part OF the

for this purpose. Ex-service men to

possible.

units on these projects when they are
ready for settlement. Sale price is to

Hospitality is the heart and core
OF the really successful home. be if
small shack in wilderness Or
palace on a street Of mansions. Part
of this hospitality, of course, is fur
nished by the people who live in the
house, but an impression of welcome
can often be very successfully impart-
ed by the exterior and interior design
and arrangement. For instance, the
old-fashioned colonial design by ma
ture is hospitable looking. 1t has
quaint front entrance that is inviting
Its simple lines are not Earring but
rather soothing to the eye. 1t radi-
ates welcome and quiet comfort.
There is much the same that can
be said about the bungalow. 1t is
innately cozy and inviting. There is
something about it's smallness, it's in
dividuality of design that makes it
strongly appealing. Consequently if
combination of the colonial and
bungalow is effected the result must
be doubly alluring.
That, we believe, is the impression
given by the charming little bungalow

Women first appeared on stage early
in the. latter half of the Seventeenth
century. In 1856 Mrs. Colman per-
formed the part of "Ianthe" in Da-
venant's "Siege Of Rhodes" before a
select audience. Mrs. Davenport as
"Roxalana" and Mrs. Saunderson (aft-
erwards Mrs. Betterton) as "Ianthe'
were the first bona fide English
actresses. They made their first ap-
pearance in 1861. Before this period
actresses were unknown the female
parts in plays were always taken by
men. Charles II (1660-1685) is said to
have first encouraged women to appear
on the stage in England, in 1862.
