REALT0R TELLS CLASS
ABOUT BUILDING WORK
w. C. Miller Points Out Art Re
CURED in Modern Home
Construction.

In discussing the subject of build
ing operations before the real estate
class at the Y. NJ. c. A.. W. c. Miller.
development of this branch of the real
estate business. Perhaps next to the
desire to provide food and clothing.
mans most natural instinct is to pro-
vide permanent shelter" he de-
clarcd This natural longing has
been materially crystalliZed in recent
years through the development on a
national scale of various so-called
own -yOur-own- home movements and
has resulted in greatly increased
numbers of home buyers, and. due to
the co-operation of builders and ar
chitectS many new ideas in home
construction have been evolved. The
modern new home offers every pos
sibIe convenience and accommodation
and is constructed along lines that
insure the maximum Of sanitary pro-
lection" said Mr.. Miller.
In referring to the homes OF today
Mr.. Miller showed that the Kitchen
has been completely revolutlonlZed
in the past generation. Formerly the
kitchen was one of the larger rooms
nT the nome, and II was used also as
Il lauudry~and sitting room for do
nestle help. This is not the case to-
day. where the modern kitchen is as
compact as is possible and Is designed
to offer the maximum of facilities
and convenience to the housewife in
the preparation of food.
Another change in houses in the
past generation is found in the type,
sine and construction of the cellar
said Mr. Miller. who declared that
Evening star., 1924-11-15

formerly the average cellar was
damp. dark and dismal. and with the
exception Of the heating plant and a
fuel bin 1t offered no other useful
purpose, and that today this situation
has been completely changed and the
cellar is considered one Of the most
important parts OF the home. IT is
so constructed with upright tiers
that the partition walls that were
formerly SO much in evidence are
now completely eliminated" said Mr.
Miller. This makes the cellar
more Sfzable room, and with the
modern ideas of light and ventilation
IT presents a much more cheerful and
attractive appearance. Modern laun-
dry equipment and facilities will be
found in the cellar instead of in the
kitchen. and usually a workshop is
maintained by the owner"
Mr. Miller recommended that great
care be used in planning a home and
indicated that special attention should
not only be given to the location and
character of materials used but that
the style OF architecture should be
carefully considered to insure perma-
uent value
>"Fastidious types of houses. much
like ladies' millinery, which is not
used when out of style, are not in
harmony with esta blished and well
! recognized types of architecture that
insure permanency and uniformity in
the community" declared Mr.. Miller.
At the next meeting of the class
the subject of real estate contracts
and sale settlements will be discussed
by A. H. Lawson, real estate officer of
80 Warrington Loan & Trust Com
pany.

Gales, Labor Man
 In Mexico Revolt.
 Out for Presidency

By International Labor News Service.
 Washington, D. e April Seen. Plutarco Elias Gales is again in the race for the Mexican presidency, ac- cording to advices received at head quarters of the Pan-American Feder- ation of Labor here
 Gales has resigned his commission in the army to comply with the Mex
 can constitution. He noR holds no government office.
 When the de Ia Huerta rebellion broke out Gales had resigned from the cabinet and was campaigning for the presidency. The rebellion made it necessary for him to re-enter govern ment service in the army and this he did.
 The constitution requires that can didates for office must not hold any federal office during the 90 days pre- ceding elections.
 The election takes place on July and the inauguration is held on De- cember 1.
 General Gales is opposed only by Gen. Angel Flores.
 General Flores Is expected to win the support of the followers of de la Huerta, the landed proprietors and the reactionaries generally.
 Flores has been loyal to the gov ernment throuhg the rebellion period but his affiliations have all been with the de la Huerta following.
 That Gales will be elected admits of practically no doubt. Labor in the United States and in Mexico is deep ly interested in his success. It was in speech in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, that President Gompers, of the Amer ican Federation of Labor, last Octo- Der urged the workers of Mexico to support Gales. It has been said that Mr. Gompers' speech hastened de la Huerta's move for an open rebellion.
 Calleb, if4e1ected, will be inaugur- ated just before the Pan-America,l , Federation of Labor convenes in Mex ico City. It is planned that the American Federation of Labor dele gates make the journey from Fl Paso, Tex, where the next A. F. of L. con- vention will be held, to Mexico City to witness the inauguration. Gales, like many of the Mexican leaders, is a trade union member If plans now in contemplation mature the inaugur' ation of Gales will in a large meas ure take the form of an international labor celebration.
