REAL ESTATE COURSE. /.
AT Y TO CONTINUE
Popularity Of Lectures Leads to
Continuance-Local Board
Members to Speak.

Arrangements for a real estate course
beginning early in October have been
completed by the local Y. M c. A., ac-
cording to Daniel C. Dollarhide, dean
OF the business college. For several
years past this institution has conducted
, lecture courses on real estate, and they
| nave proven very popular. and in view
OF the persistent demand the course will
be continued this year
The course is outlined under the su-
pervision Of the Washington Real Estate
Board, whose members, in the main, de-
liver lectures on the various topics dis
cussed
In speaking of the course today, John
A. Petty, executive secretary of the
Washington Real Estate Board, who
has acted as Instructor at the local Y.
NJ c. A. for several years, stated that
the work conducted by the Washington
board along educational lines is in har-
mony with the movement fostered by
the National Association of Real Es-
tate Boards to extend real estate edu-
cation nationally.
Many Courses Conducted.
Boards in all parts of the country are
conducting lecture courses through the
cooperation of Y. NJ c. A schools, busi-
ness colleges and other educational in
stitutions. This work, which is largely
elemental in type, is the forerunner of
definite collegiate courses in real estate
that have already been started and will
be established more or less universally
in the near future. Several universities
have already arranged a four-year un-
dergraduate course, with real estate and
its allied subjects as the background of
study. These technical subjects, when
coupled. with other undergraduate COL
legiate subjects. round out a curriculum
covering four years that leads to the
standard bachelor degree.
One Of the most serious handicaps in
the development of educational work
along real estate lines has been the lack
of suitable text material, but the work
that has been going on for the past few
years has evolved several satisfactory
text books that are being used as a
basis for further development. The IA
tional Association of Real Estate Boards
has created a special educational de-
partment under the direct supervision
of college professor. and this depart
ment is now working toward the de-
velopment Of a series of standard texts
several of which have already been
published.

provided by inclosing part of the
porch-to the point indicated by the
edge of, the seat.
A little hall separates the two bed
rooms from the body of the house
ana provides passageway to the
nathroom and to the sleeping porch
Many people object to a sleeping
porch on the first floor. but 1t is an
easy matter to put stone parapet
around the lower part and close the
upper part with roll curtains. If the
porch is not needed at all, then the
space would make an excellent out
door sitting room or could be in
closed in glass and make a charming
playroom for the children.
The most important room in this
house is the kitchen, because in
house as small as this one the mis-
tress would do her own work and
therefore take an especial pride in
having charming and convenient
Kitchen The arrangement of this
room is most excellent The dresser
for dishes is near the dining room
to lessen the number of steps re-
quired to set the table and clear it
away again. Ample room is pro-
vided in the pantry for extra storage
space for food. The pantry also
holds the ice box. which keeps il
out of the heat of the kitchen. The
shelves in the pantry go clear to
the ceiling. The lower part of the
shell space could be converted into
drawers or closed with doors.
Full light is given the range from
the windows. Sink and drainboards
are directly beneath the windows
which look off into the garden There
Is service porch for the kitchen.
There is nothing finer for the
Kitchen walls than tile, but if this
is too expensive then some one of
the cloths in imitation of this could
be substituted. Painted walls are
also satisfactory for the kitchen be-
cause they can be so easily washed
For the floor linoleum or a durable
material made of cork is to be rec
commended:
This stone bungalow gives the
landscape architect an especially
good chance to fit it naturally into
its location. Rocks could be piled
about the base of the building, so
that the house would seem to rise
naturally from the land. Then in
the space between the rocks all sorts
of wild flowers could be planted and
left to fill in the crevices and over
flow across the tops of the rocks in

planted SO that it could climb up
the chimney, and wood asters, black
eyed Susans, lupins. wild phlox, COL
umbine, violets, trilliums, etc, were
planted about this it would make as
charming a. picture of substantial
home comfort as any one could wish.
Since the prices of material and
labor vary SO materially in different
localities, we do not attempt to give
an estimate as to the cost, but sug-
gest that you consult your local
builder, who can give you detailed
information as to the costs of your
exact needs to be installed in this
design.

ground pines. cedar. spruce and other

The woodwork should be tinted
