MAKE HOME A BEAUTY SPOT
Matter Is More One Of Careful
Thought Than Nero Expenditure
Of Actual Cash.

The 'brightening up" process ought
to start with the lot line. Invest in
some fertilizer for the lawn-you1l be
surprised at the good 1t will do. Then.
over in n corner may be a spot
where a spirea. or u climbing rose
could work wonders in transformation.
Perhaps the sidewalk entrances may
need repairing. or the porches have
to be painted, md surely every two
or three years a house needs a coat
or two OF good paint. remembering
the slogan that when you save the
surface, you save ALL" Then the ga
rage INT the flower garden come in
for their share of new things. Perhaps
there's q cracked window pane some
where hat needs replacing, or a cup
board to build.
Inside the home. most folks clear
eway the dirt and the CRIME and the
smoke of winter hours with u vlgor-

plus the services of a good decorator.
A few dollars invested in matters
like these aids the inmates of any
dwelling. no matter how modest or
p~retentious. to get a new grip on life.
But just a word of caution before
you do anything. Consider well What
should be done, make you plans, then
go to dealers you can trust and make
your purchases, keeping in mind the
fact hat those who advertise their
wares. who are unafraid to speak of
the merits of their merchandise pub
licly. through newspaper columns, are
the ones to turn TO both for advice

the little things that help make a
house IA home.

able tires. Careless Cit laughs and

Poets may rave of the old oaken, moss
covered bucket, but they don't drink
out of it. The inconvenience of the
summer hotel are all right when you're
IN a vacation.
The time of home regeneration Is
here. however, and 1t doesn't end until
the blackness cast up by the radiator
Is cleansed from the wall and the in

ton of the sepder's fee to the radio
company. Radio rates further
more, are cheaper in many III
stances than cable so it was felt
that to furnish the American Radio
corporation with a means OF eel
lecting messages throughout tie
United States by giving them the
advantage Of the thousands OF
Western Union offices might be an
unwise business move.
Mackay Takes Broad View.
Clarence H. Mackay, president Of
the Postal Telegraph and Cable
company which also has gables of
its own. took a different view, how
ever, Of the transatlantic bust
ness. He felt that if radio could be
used for many messages it would
relieve the congestion and make
cable communication quicker and
thus tempt business men to use the
cables more frequently and to bet
ter advantage.
1t is known fact that states in
! terfere with radio every now and
then and. while remarkable speed
is made there are some serious de-
lays. Many messages, however,
are sent to Europe which the send
1ter is not anxious to have deliv-
cred at once and a delay Of few
hours is not material. Radio Will
! get mucn of this traffic whereas
for communication at certain day
hours, when radio is not az a rule
as good as cable, the. latter viii
reap the benefit. The Postal Telc-
graph company's ideas is that a
readiness to give the American iRa-
Edio corporation a collestfng tele.
graph agency will stimulate bust
ness of all kinds with Europe. both
cable and radio, and will unQues-
tionably work to the advantage Of
the cable lines of the Western I'm.

for cables have been congested IN
recentmqnths and it is an open
secret that >tfe old pre-war situa-

Another complication j the fact
that the allies took two cable.
which originally went to Germany

companies have been thwarted il
