Residence With a
Garage for Hill
side Lot.
Omitting the Garage, Level Plot
Could Be Used WithF the
Accompanying Design.

This house is designed to he hri'
on some one of the many beautiful
gently sloping hills of our country
The materials used in its construc-
ton are cement and stone and one of
struction. This combination gives a
quality of richness and variety that
obviates any danger of monotony. The
silhouette of this house is picturesque
in the extreme and the floor plans are
well adapted to comfortable living.
There is a growing popularity for
the house and garage under one roof,
and we have here combined a splen-
did layout of rooms with exquisite
grace of exterior. From the architect $
drawings this house could be built on
Il level plot of ground as we'll as a
side hill, by emitting the garage. The
approach to the garage in situation
like the one shown here, is always at
tractive. 1t gives chance for a
graceful sweep of driveway and for
an interesting planting of flowers on
the bank.
The entrance is through d charming
recessed porch into a hail. at the right
of which is long drawing room. At
one end is the Sunroom and under
meath the sunroom is the garage. If
any one wishes to build this house on
a level plot the garage could be
omitted and the floor plan stand COM
plete without it. The large living
room shows windows on opposite
sides of the room. which allows per-
feet ventilation. There is d fireplace.
and if one chose seat could be
placed at the side of the fireplace.
under which books and magazines
could be kept.
The dining room is not large-nor
is it uncomfortably small-and a seat

mas been suggested along two sides
of the room. The table may be pushed
up to this seat when being used, and
in this way only a few chairs will be
needed and the effect will be unique
Period furniture could be chosen for
this room and a lowboy or chest of
the same model as the table and
chairs would be convenient and
beautiful
If one chose to have the living and
dining room together, this little room
would make an excellent sewing room
or den, for it is so closely connected
with the living room that it almost
forms a niche of that room.
The kitchen is on the far side of the
dining room and has been arranged
for the convenient conducting of
work. The entire plan was designed,
in fact, with a woman's comfort in
mind. The solution of the servant
problem undoubtedly lies with the
architect. Upon his shoulders rests
the responsibility Of rooms being so
arranged that housework becomes
easy.
The floor plan shows two bedrooms
and bath in a sort of wing by them
selves. This gives them seclusion
and makes the work of caring for
them much easier. for when they are
once put in order they can be shut
away from the rest of the house. BY
raising the roof to get better sill
houette the architect obtained
enough space for large storage
room in the second floor. The plan.

II one lived in a locality where
stone was plentiful, this design would
be ideal built entirely of stone. Select
stones of the exquisite pink and law
endar and blue-gray tones rather
than the dull grays entirely-add to
this a roof of multi-colored shingles
of the tones of the stones and
thoughtfully carried out planning of
informal shrubs. trees and flowers and
the effect will be lovely

G. Clinton James Reads Important
Legislative Paper at An

c. Clinton James of Washington

mittee of the United States League of
Local Building and Loan Associations.
read before the thirty-second annual
convention Of that organization, at
Cleveland, this week, a summary of the
laws passed by Congress affecting
building and loan associations. His re-
port carried many items of interest to
those operating these organizations.
The following message from President
Coolidge was sent to Mr.. James, who
read it to the convention: For many
years ! have known of the work Of
these organizations. which have un-
doubtedly made great and important
contributions toward home ownership
throughout the country. Their plan is
one of the attractive and practical
methods of promoting thrift My good
wishes for every effort for the exten-
sion of this splendid work.

A lot of at least 100-foot frontage
would be needed if the house is to
have the proper setting. 1t Is only
72 feet wide by 46 feet deep and
COULD, therefore, be built on a Is
foot frontage lot; and while we need
no extra space for a driveway to the
garage, since this measurement in
cludes that, and the depth of the lot
might give sufficient lawn and garden
space, yet to crowd so beautiful a
design as this in any way would not
be fair to the owner or the house it
self. An exquisite gem cannot but be
more beautiful IL splendidly set! So
we advise the 100-foot frontage If
possible.
Since the prices of materials and
labor vary so materially in different
localities, we do not attempt to give
an estimate as to cost of building ac-
cording to this plan, but suggest that
you consult a local builder. who can
give you detailed Information as to
the costs Of your exact needs to be
installed in this design.

That the United States is well on
the way to be a nation of home
owners is evidenced by the great in
crease in house building during the
last year. This increase is shown all
along the line, and the recent growth
of the building and loan associations
throughout the country is another
indication of this gradual trend on
the part of Americans.
The activities of the building and

are steadily increasing. About $780,
