She knows and realizes the value of is work in any eommuni- ty, and she is perfectly willing to stand up and argue for the Army with any, ene, Although she was advised that this was no year for a drive in Pns- nam, Mrs Johnston was not to be sent away with empty hands. She has worked steadily and surely throughout the community, and she is meeting with considerable success.

Small House thu Best.

Planting Of shrubs and trees about
the house. making the yard practical
ly an outdoor living room and embel-
fishing the street and immediate en-
vironment Of the houses, Is essential.
So-called back yards should be con-
sidered things Of the past and gardens
should be substituted. The house
should be as small as possible. Size
and display do not make for happi.
ness. The house should have good
quality, though less quantity. Moth
Ing can be gained by way of comfort,
durability or attractiveness from In
ferior construction. Since the cost Of
house Of good floor plan and ex-
terror treatment does not increase In
proportion to an increase in the size
of rooms, therefore proper space for
furniture and the expression of In
dividuality and taste Of the owner or
occupant should not be sacrificed.

BUILDERS STUDY THE WIND
Weather Bureau Records Consulted
When Towns Adopt
City Plan.

Washington, d. c., which was laid
out In 1850 by Maj. Pierre Charles
LEnfant, Is an example Of the advan-
tages to be obtained from planning
cities with the future well In mind.
The city of Springfield, ILL.,, Is about
to adopt city plan, contemplating for
the future city, among other features,
a union railroad station, an industrial
district. the creation Of q lake In the
valley Of the Sangamon river, and a
civic center.
The Industrial zone Ii to be located
IN the extreme northeast part Of the
city. Attention was given to the source
Of local water supply, proximity to
railroads and terminals, housing con-
ditions, and available sites for indus
trial plants. An important consider
alton, however, In choosing this loca-
ton, was the prevailing wind direction.
II Is always preferable that smoke,
gases and noise should blow away
from, not over, the residential parts
Of the city.
The forty-four-year weather record
Of the weather bureau Of the United
States Department Of Agriculture for
Springfield shows that the prevailing
wind direction Is from the northwest
In January and February, and from the
south during all the other months. 1t
was clearly indicated that by locating
the Industrial zone In the northeast,
smoke-bearing winds would blow over
the city but a small part Of the time.
Similar plans have been laid out for
several other cities. Local conditions
sometimes make It impossible to place
the residential section to the windward
Of the Industrial zone, but In future
city planning wind direction will no
doubt be given due weight. The
weather bureau has records extending
over long periods for many regions to
aid In determining the direction Of pre-
vailing winds.

SMALL HOUSE IS POPULAR
Scarcity Of Reliable Domestic Help
and High Prices Tends to Favor
Little Homes.

1t Is not an altogether new thing, the
vogue Of the little house; It is, rather,
something In the nature Of a very far
reaching revival revival that has
suddenly captured the interest Of the
architectural profession and laid siege
to the heart and the purse Of q pub
lie wearied by the constantly soaring
cost and Increasingly difficult main
tenance Of unnecessarily large houses.
Collier Stevenson, an architect.
takes the view that "there Is at pres
ent apparently no hopeful sign of any
considerable diminution In either build
ing or operating costs for years to
come" He adds, TT Is safe to as
sumo that the vogue Of the little house
will, as time goes on, be an even
more potent influence than II Is to-
day.
"The scarcity Of reliable domestic
help-together with the phenomenal
remuneration demanded for even the
Indifferent household service available
has. Of course, tended to popularlze
the small house enormously since the
war, not only on this side Of the At
lantic, but also in some of the older
lands across the sea. In England, for
Instance. the seriousness Of the help
problem has probably had a very con-
siderable bearing upon the recent sale
OF many a famous country seat; al
though there. as here. the prevailing
high rate Of taxation has undoubtedly
been another powerful argument
against unduly large homes.
TN the not very remote past, high
ceilings and large rooms prevailed In
most Of our homes. Even in an other.
wise small house, the kitchen was
apt to be relatively large. Efficiency
then was not, and could not be, a
guiding factor In household manage
ment.'-Ladies' Home Journal.

PRESIDENT MAY SIGN
Immigration MEASURE
No Serious Complications Will
Arise From japan, Wash
ington Believes
.afion and EducatIon)

(Bureau Of Publication and Education)
WASHINGTON, d. c., April 23.-
The Japanese have made noise, they
yelled like good fellows over the pass
age of the immigration bill contain
ing the Japanese exclusion paragraph,
but it isn't going to undo the splen-
did work of congress.
Neither is Japan going to make
war on us for protecting our own peo-
ple from the orientals who seek to
lock in here by the tens Of thous-
sands. The Japanese situation is far
less tense than it was a week ago
and there is not going to be any in
ternational trouble over this matter.
Talk to the contrary is all bosh: We
do not insult the people of Japan
when we call attention to the fact
chat her people did not fit in we'll
Nth the people Of the United States.
They are two distinct races and ought
not to mix closely when it comes to
residence and living conditions.
There are those who profess to be-
lieye that President Coolidge will
veto the immigration bill on account
of the Japanese exclusion paragraph,
but the big majorities by which the
bill passed each branch of congress
cannot help but make an impression
on Coolidge.
Of course, the attitude of Score
tary Hughes is thrown in the balance
on the side of Japan, but it is not be-
lieved that even this fact will sway
the president and keep him from sign
ing the bill. Secretary Hughes pre-
diets that the entire work OF the
Washington conference will be I'M
done but he practically stands alone
on that proposition. -.
The fact is that japan will prob
ably grin and bear it and the PEG,
Die of the Pacific coast states will
have their way after a long and hard
fight against the Japanese menace TO
their country. We may have some
troubles in the far east as result
but nothing serious is really expected;
II was thought the president would
have something to say on the SUD
iect in his New York speech to the
Associated Press this week, but he re-
mained silent on the matter.
