The best insurance against want
in your old age is to cultivate the
habit of ownership save, every
day. a part of the money you
make by the expenditure of your
energyfor your energy is your
self-your savings are your own
muscle and brain transmitted into
money. And, in what better way
can the excess energy of your
younger days be represented than
by a house. that will shelter you
and your wife when you grow
old and your strength is ebbing?
The idea that YOU might fin0
yourself in the home of another,
old. helpless and dependent, would
be an agonizing prospect, espe
cially IL you realized that you
might not be altogether welcome.
The greatest care should be taken
when building or buying your home.
Be sure, so far as humanity pos
sible. that it is located in a neigh
borhood where values are rising.
Build it so that it will require
the lowest upkeep crst. and suffer

be a tragedy in the days of your
old age to have on your hands

a constant large expenditure for

New Home Division AT
Seven Oaks to Open
This Spring

One Of the most interesting
developments of recent wears,
in the suburbs of Washington
is "Seven Oaks" the new sub
division near Silver Springs,
shortly to be opened up in half
acre plots by the Armstrong
Development Corporation.
Situated within q short dis
lance of the District. line, in
close proximity. to : the street
cars, and we'll above the alti-.
tude of Washington proper,
these acres Of gently rolling
land should make beautiful
homesites for the lover of that
half country, half city life now
becoming so typical ofNthe best
in American real estate devel-
opment.
Sligo creek runs through the
property from north to south
and winds its picturesque way
about the base of d small knoll,
on which stands the great oaks
from which the place takes its
name.
The developing corporation
has been unusually generous in
the dedication of land for the
common use Of its purchasers.
The roads have parking space;
footpaths and woodland drives
run along the banks Of the
creek, and there are q .75-foot
swimming pool and tennis
courts at hand. This devel-
opment lies just across the
Colesville Pike from Woodside,
the Crosby Noyes estate which
was opened to the public last
autumn. Marking the north
west corner of the property is
the ancient toll house, which is
being done over into rather
complete structure from the de-
signs of one of the best arclIf-
tects in Washington. The broad
entrance gates to the property
are situated about 40 feet to
the west Of the old toll house.

Choice of This Type Makes Ex-
pensiye Looking House at
Low Cost.

That brick is one of the most
artistically satisfying of all the
building materials is well known
TO architects, and is the reason
why those experts like to design
brick homes. The clay that is
burned into bricks and built into
wallis in the locality where it is
found always harmonizes with the
landscape more effectually thar
material brought in. from other sec
lions of the country. This fact was
well known to. medieval builders
The general acceptance of this tru-
ism marked the end of the stiff, for
mai and unnatural effects in brick
work which were in vogue UP to
the end of the last century, and
brought a return of those beautiful
effects in common brick which char
acterlze such interesting old struc-
lures as Independence Hall, Phila-
oelphla; the early buildings of Yale
ana Harvard universities and hun
areas of similar historical buildings
IL broke down also. the general be
lief that brick houses were only
Tor men OF means. By using low
cost common brick providing onl,
that they are we'll burned, and lay.
ing them up i'm a suitable bond and
mortar joint some of the finest
effects in brick work may be pro.
duced. and an expensive looking
brick house may be built at low
cost. In fact, il upkeep expenses
for very few years are included
as part of the cost of the house
IT can be shown that the brick
house, even Of the smallest size
costs less than a similar house of
less permanent construction. And
II the owner is not satisfied with
the effect produced by common
brick there js always a large va.

Mark Rose Likes Plan
of Payment for All

Directors of the Imperial Irriga-

assessments are to be made after
March /, this year, considering sew
eral plans, submitted by various di-
reetors and c. w. Barry, assessor
collector.
The question, after considerable
discussion, was whether the district
should collect al funds needed
through taxation on land values,
assessments for water received, or a
compromise as is now in force.
Appeals were made to the board
to collect all funds needed through
assessment of property, on the plea
than all lands in the district should
bear their snare according to acre.
age. Others declared that payment
according to water used is the only
equitable plan, while Assessor Bar
~ and certain directors argued for
a compromise plan.
Director r. ID. McPherin believes
the present plan with certain minor
improvements is the right method.
Director Mark Rose was q leader
in the argument for payment accord.
ing to water used, while President
j. S. Nickerson argued that some
lands could not, stand their portion
of the expense and suggested that
richer lands help bear the burden.
of the poorer.
At late hour today the directors
were still discussing the proposition
seeking a plan which would be more
satisfactory than that now in force
and which would be as nearly equ.
able as possible.
