The home pictured here is an ex-
ample CT modern small-house
building at it's best. 1t has all
the elements of economical con-
stNlction and the quality of excel
lent appearance.
There are seven large rooms
with an abundance of closets and
built-in features. Yet it is not too
large to be placed on an ordinary
city lot, leaving room for drive
way to the garage.
The layout of rooms is rectangu-
lar, an arrangement of which
Charles f. White Jr., a leading ar
chitect of the country, has said !:
"Rectangular houses permit a bet
ter arrangement of rooms than
square houses"
Shelter Hall
The stair hall is sheltered by a
vestibule, containing a coat closet.
The living room occupies one side
of the house, with windows on
three sides, and a fireplace in the
center of the long outside wall.
Under the window which overlooks
the rear garden is a built-in win
dow seat, with bookcases in the
corners at each side.
At the front of the other side of
the hall is the light, cheerful din

2. u. Decision In Death OF Walter G..
Wyman, SkOwhegan

The PublickUtilities Commission in
a recent decision in the matter of
the accident at Skowhegan, September
II, last, resulting in the death of Wal
ter G. Wyman, aged "a, of Skowhe-
gan, states that 1t appears that Mr..
Wyman had started. to complete his
work on the controller without open
ing the safety switch or without
wearing rubber gloves and that the
commission believes IL either of these
precautions had been taken this acct
dent would not have occurred.
The decision was as follows:
"On September IL, 1923, Walter @.
Wyman, employed by the Central
Maine Power Company as superin-
tendent of the power plant at Show
hogan, came in contact with $50
volt circuit and was instantly killed.
at appears from the evidence that
Mr.. Wyman was called to the Maine
Spinning Company's mill at Skowhe
gan to adjust the automatic control
ling apparatus connected with the
deep well pump. The controlling ap-
paratus and safety switch are both
located ON the boiler room within
two feet of each other, both being
inclosed in a metal cabinet.
"Mr. wyman, who had been work
ing on the apparatus during the
forenoon, had returned after the noon
hour to complete dhe adjustment. He
sent Mark Clark, his assistant, to
another part Of the building for
something that he needed in his work.
Mr.. Clark had gone but short dis
lance when he heard noise. Turn
ing around he saw Mr.. Wymans
hand In contact with the controlling
apparatus. Mr.. Clark threw the
switch as quickly as possible and
summoned aid. MIR. Wyman was
rushed to the Somerset Hospital.
Drs. Richardson and Dascombe, who
had been called, arrived within few
minutes and rendered every. pos
sible aid, including the prone pres
sure method which was used for
three hours, but they were unable to
restore consciousness. Apparently
Mr.. Wyman was instantly killed
when his hands came In contact with
the controlling apparatus.
at appears that Mr.. Wyman had
started to complete his work on the
controller without opening the safety
switch or without wearing rubber
gloves. We believe that IL either of
these precautions had been taken,
that this accident would not have oc-
CURED"

Despite all rumors, London has
bath tub or so. But bathing there is
an ordeal At a hotel where / was
staying, a valet with long whiskers
would come in and say, "Your Bawth
is ready. sir!"
always wanted to yell @Beaver!-
and shoe him out but he looked too
serious like. he had the kind of whis-
lsers that if ever he has his portrait
painted they will label it: Man
Climbing out of Fern Dish!'
Well, anyway. He wouldn't let you
alone. He'd stand in the bath room,
hand you the soap, the towel and even
wash your back. Gets on your nerves,
I'll say. There is still little old
fashioned modesty in this changing
world.
Didn't Appreciate Story.
I tried to tell him a funny story
once and, when paused for laughter,
sponge, the ripping old dodo. He al
ways asked me how liked the water
and I'd tell him, luke warm. He'd
fix it and then tell me it was quite
tepid." He would never admit it was
luke warm. Stubborn! No end.
His name was Meadows but called
him Clinging Vine. He was always
standing around and ] didn't get to
sing a single note all the time l was
in the bloomin' country.
The most thr ing adventure I ever
had in bath TUB was in a New York
hotel several years ago. The door buz-
ger rang II the midst of my additions
/ wrapped 2 towel around by Grecian
figure and went dripping to answer
il. neeked out: nobody was in sight.
So emboldened, stepped out into the
hall to peer around the corner to see
who pressed the buzzer.
Just as / was stretching my neck,
there was slam. / gulped desper-
ately and looked around-knowing
the worst had happened. The door to
the room had blown shut. There was
no one inside to answer and there
was / and anything might happen,
riot or murder.
I thought of screeching for help and
I thought of fainting. Then there was
a confusion of thoughts for the ele-
rator had stopped at the floor. There
were several feminine voices.
1 peeked around the corner and here
they came-three of 'em. / reached
out my hand to wave them back and
one end of the towel slipped and, Of
course, / had TO retrieve il.
A Crowd of Spectators.
There was an indoor court yard. I
rushed to the window. and outside
was a little balcony. With eagerness
/ hoisted the window and stepped
out into the chill wind. I stood there
shivering like an aspen leaf and when
l saw three ladies pass ! waited mo-
ment and started inside.
For some reason happened to look
out over the court yard. never knew
a hotel could hold so many people, and
all of them were crowding to the va.
rious windows.
When I got back in the hall the
house detective was standing there.

dered.
Nothing. not even a towel" said,
trying to be merry and bright.
"You get back in your ROOM" he
commanded. He added, "And I'll call
the house physician"
He opened the door with his pass
key and let me in. He followed. The
manager came in at his heels.

tive, "you are going to tell me you
were just out picking daisies,"-

which struck me as being the unfun-
niest remark ! ever heard.
Then the house doctor came in with
his little satcheL He wanted to know
the trouble.
aThis guy said the hated house
detective, thinks this place Is a

Not . snappy Retort.
Il don't neither, nothing OF the
kind" / replied in a vicious assault
on the Queens English. And, came
to think Of it, it wasn't very snappy
retort.
Well, anyway, when / could make
my teeth quit castenating I explained
just what had happened. They trouped
out but all the day every time went
out the house detective was lettering
about my door.
If you don't think that was an ad-
venture-April Fool. / had all the
thrills of a melodrama in the mere
simple process of taking bath.
Some people prefer hot baths and
others go in for the cold plunge. My
vote goes for the tepid. THAT English
valet has me saying that.)
/ believe some of the biggest ideas
ever given to the world have come
from men while reclining in the luxur-
liant warmth of the bath.

am also given to a little classical
dancing-leaping about somewhat like
Isadore Duncan when she was consid-
cred one of our very best leapers.
In other words, bathing inspires me
to sing and dance. And Mr.. Volstead
can laugh that off.
In all my experience in bathing ]
have had but one mishap. That was
one Saturday night when I stepped
into the bath and put my foot on a
cake of soap. Marceline never did a
more unique fall.
l went under like a duck and one
foot caught in the towel rack and the
medicine chest, so called because there
is no medicine in it, landed in the
middle OF my back. Since then / have
always inspected the bottom of the
tub. Just slight precaution like that

There was a tin tub, quantity let
tered on one side "Narcissus." 1t
hung in the smoke house right off the
kitchen.
We filled it with buckets Of water
from the well. You couldn't sit down
in it. You had to stand up and splash
yourself. 1t seemed a bit of a MUS
ance. There was no lock on the smoke
house door and the hired girl was
deaf and always running in and out.
1t was not until the modern bath
room, with hot and cold water, mir
rored doors and fuzzy towels, came
into prominence that ever regarded
bathing as an adventure.

larry. Indeed, I rather cherish the
hope bathing will eventually become
universal and that no Saturday will 60
by without the entire world taking
the matutinal or nocturnal dip.
I wish to warn all regular bathers,
however, of one of the greatest dan
gers that beset them. Don't let your
curiosity get the better Of you when
the front bell rings. After all, it may
be only a bill collector or a census
taker. Let the old bell ring out. Stick

IN MEMORIAM

In loving memory of my darling
wife, Myrtle R. Cabe, who died June
2s, 1929.
Nothing but memories as 1 journey on,
Longing for face that is dead and
gone.
None knows the depth of our regret,
No one knows the silent heartache,
Only those who we lost can tell
OF the grief that's borne in silence,
For the one we loved so well.
A secret thought, silent tear
Keeps her memory ever dear.
By her husband, W. A. Cabe.
