ONLY 81 PER CENT
Of HOMES WIRED
EIectrification of Remainder
in u. S. Estimated to
Cost 0O0,OOo,OOO.

According to figures gathered by
the Electrical World less than 81 per
cent of the homes in the United States
enjoy the convenience and comfort of
electric lighting. Think of it-almost
tWo-thirds of our homes are without
such modern equipment!
And yet in Italy only slightly more
than IL per cent of the homes are
lighted by electricity; less than IA
per cent in France, II per cent in the
about 80 per cent in Japan, which
leads all other nations with the ex-
ception of the United States with it's
nearly 81 per cent-little enough, as
it is.
Surely here is business for electra
gists for years to come The wiring
alone for lighting the homes of our
own country will amount to consider
ably more than billion dollars
While it used to be that this vast sum
seemed inconceivable. It now easily
hts into almost any picture we would
visualize.
Say $1,000. .O00.0 600 would take care
of the wiring for half OF the homes in
the United States yet to be wired
Then that is merely the start, for
neat and power, as well as light, are
becoming more and more popular in
the nome, and the appliances furnish
ing these features would add more
billions to the business
In a recent survey of its members
made by the Association of Electra
gists 1t was found that almost 60 per
cent Of them carry a stock of lighting
hxtures and make a display of them
II is reasonable to assume that of the
others almost 40 per cent at some
time or another sell lighting fixtures
when they wire the home for light
ing The lighting fixture business.
then. is largely in the hands of the
electragist, and thus billions of dol
lars more will come to him as the
saturation point of electric lighting
in the home is reached.

ATTRACTIVE PANEL:
MAKING OF HOME
Mouldings Properly Used in Rooms
Broken by Doors and
Windows.

Infinite charm can be given TO an
average room through the judicious use
of mouldings in panel work. Suppose a
room is broken up by doors or win
dows Panels can be used TO balance
these doors or windows. and so proper
toned as TO give the room some archi-
tectural unity. Or a room may contain
few large pieces of furniture whose
beauties can be heightened if placed in
front of proper sized panels. Still
further. if more than ordinary life is
needed in a room. one of series OF
panels at some advantageous point may
be filled" with gorgeous floral paper,
while the remaining panels are filled
with a soft, self-tOne paper. Or two
panels may be treated with strong
color" papers. while the other panels are
| filled" with soft tones. The possibilities
are endless.
Carrying these remarks further. we
may point out that if an exceptionally
rich. charming result is wanted, the

Picture OF Farm.
The man in search of a farm is
able to study the character Of the
land, noting the height of the tim
Der, the size of the house. number of
outbuildings, location and size of the
orchard and the number and course
of the streams. From the aerial photo
he is able to see many things which
he would overlook upon personally
investigating the place, and see them
at a glance
The air view neither fiatters nor de-
tracts from the property. In this re-
spect ii is an ideal sample and as
such fills long-felt want in the real
estate business. Owing to the large
number of other uses for aerial pho
tographs. the agent is already able
to purchase prints at nominal cost
from the files of the aerial photogra-
pliers. In many Instances the initial
expense of having the photographs
shot" is borne by the chamber of
commerce or the municipal govern
ment, and unless copyrighted by the
first purchaser for his exclusive use,
arc purchased by agents just as they
purchase maps and conventional
photographs.

nishing full-colored paper, and so pro-
ducing a unique soft, subdued effect, is
at hand. Here is case in point A
New York decorator not long ago was
called upon to furnish an exceptionally
luXuriant country house. A colonial re-
production paper was chosen for the
large hall because the owner had an
especial liking for that particular style
The paper when put on the walls, was
just bit too new" and bright The
decorator promptly sprayed it tafter he
had tested piece of the paper to see
that the colors would not run) with A
fine coating of shellac. The result was
most appealing, and the hall had the
appearance of antiquity without any of
the objectionable earmarks of age.
To get the most out of wall paper a
lot of deep thought is required Every
single paper on the market has it's own
possibilities. 1t has. first possibilities as
sibilitles of combination decoration
with some other paper. 1t has, too pos
sibilities under shellacihg method. Next.

be framed-if il is an attractive colored

lastly. il has the possibilities of all good
decorative mediums. in that it is OF
