Stones that are opalescent in tone
may be found in almost every local
ity with a little interested search,
and a chimney made of these would
give far finer appearance to the
whole house-for their beauty in
creases with age, the tones soften and
the chimney becomes a most notice
able bit of beauty.
This little house has the wonder
fully charming exterior of the olden
days, but the interior is one of most
modern conveniences. Thus we weave
into the yesterday the comfort and

be more pleasing?
Since the prices of materials and
labor vary considerably in different
localities, We do not attempt to give
definite estimate as to the cost of
building according to this plan, but
suggest that you suit your pocketbook
as TO the kind of materials to be used
and then consult a local builder for

and other open spaces; the density of

OF buildings, structures and land for
trade, industry, residence and other
purposes.
Such regulations shall be made in
accordance with comprehensive
plan, and designed to lessen conges-
tion in the streets; to secure safety
from fire, panic and other dangers;
to promote health and the general
welfare; to provide adequate light
and air; to prevent the overcrowding
of land: to avoid undue concentration
of population; to facilitate the ade-
water, sewerage, schools. parks and
other public requirements Such
regulations shall be made with rea-
sonable consideration, among other
things, to the character of the district
and it's peculiar suitability for par
ticular uses, and with a view to con-
serving the value of buildings and
encouraging the most appropriate use
OF land throughout such municipality.
To be sure, not zoning alone nor an
incomplete nor ill-conSidered system
OF coming can accomplish all these
things. There is no cure-all. But it
is certain that these desirable things
cannot be accomplished without zon-

Zoning Called Success.
That zoning has been successful
in its practical application is shown
by the opinions of affected interests.
THE annual report of the Invest
ment Bankers Association of Amer
ica contains the following statement:
The desirability, for both practical
and esthetic reasons, of limiting the
height and area of buildings and seq
regating business property frou res
Dental districts has brought about
the establishment of coming ordi-
nances in many of the principal cities
of the United States. The cities thus
affected have gone through a period
of understandable unsettlement and
adjustment. The correctness of the
principle of zoning ordinances may
now be said to have been generally
recognized and has been upheld by
the Supreme Court of the United
States. AS time goes on, the benefits
of such ordinances should be more
and more apparent and the inequali-

HOLY LAND MODERNlZED.
New Homes Built, Cities Re
planned, Report States.

American houses Of the most mod
ern type are being built in Palestine
at the rate of one thousand yearly.
according to a report received by
Samuel Cntermyer. president of the
Palestine Foundation Fund, from the
Jerusalem headquarters of the organ
iZation.
This building activity is made pos
sible largely through longtime loans
granted by the General Mortgage
Bank Of the Palestine foundation
fund, to which American Jews have
contributed $6,000.00 in the three
years since its establishment in the
United States" the report states.
These American houses, most of
them two-family concrete buildings,
are gradually converting the ancient,
run down cities of the Holy Land into
modern, spacious and clean towns and
suburbs. All the new Jewish sections s
are laid out by experienced town
planners and the same hygienic con-
ditions and sanitary improvements are
found there that one sees in American
and modern European homes.
THE most remarkable example Of
building activity in Palestine is Tel
Ayiv. which was founded in 1909 on
barren sand waste by a group OF
Russian Jews. 1t is now a modern,
thriving city Of almost 1900 popula-
tion and contains l.5500 buildings, Of

now an excess Of about 81 per cent OF
Families, over, dwellings,, and which had
IN 1910 35.5 per cent of families in eX-
cess of dwellings,.
The home building associations are
less and less each year called upon to
nnance new homes to be built by the
private individual.
They have almost without excep-
tion had considerable increase in de-
posits and large increase in the call
from the home buyer to ref1nance his
home purchase. In other words, the
homeseeker in the District is more
and more calling upon the home
building associations to assist him to
buy his home rather than TO help him
build 1t.
Building Lean Fund Increased.
The home associations in addition
to their increased demand from home
seekers for re-f1nancing, are mate
rally assisting the building Specu-
lator in his construction work.
That people of the District are be-
coming increasingly interested in the
prospects of eventually purchasing a
home is evidenced by the fact that
the last report of the United States
League of Loan and Building Asso-
Citations shows an increase in mem
bership of $500 for Washington, with
the United States there was an in
crease in mem be rship of more than a
million persons and an increase in as
sets Of almost half Il billion dollars.
The people who are placing their
money in the building and loan as
&ociations are those who are looking
for moderate priced dwelling.

REALTY BOARDS ACTIVE.

The Pittsburgh Real Estate Board
has appointed a committee to select
a building to be purchased as its

Board will soon break ground for

Square, the Toledo civic center. The
building will be three-story cut

clubrooms and an auditorium.
The Chicago Real Estate Board
plans to open campaign for a per-
manent board home following mem
bership campaign not yet completed.
which has already increased the
boards active membership almost SO
per cent. The boards active MEM
bership is 1.175.
y speakers bureau, to bring to the
various organizations in the COM
munity the facts about the city and
the state, has been organized by the
Milwaukee Real Estate Board. The
plan is part of the movement. be-
coming general throughout the Ma
tional Association of Real Estate
Boards, for conducting through the
local real estate board d permanent
campaign to bring to the people of
each locality the value of their own
community resources. These re-
sources are the foundation of real
estate values in the community. The
Milwaukee board proposes also to
launch a campaign to acquaint the
public with the meaning of the term
