DEAN PICKENs' OBSERVATIONS,

THE BRILLIANT Dean William
Pickens wrote rather remarkable
obituary upon the late Hon. Charles
A. Cottrill of Toledo, Ohio. He made
correct summary of conditions as
they existed during the administra-
ton of President Warren G. Harding.
The only oversight in the communi-
cation IS his failure to remark that
there are others who were Similarly
treated. Before the election Of Hon.
Warren g. Harding, we had qoted
warnings that the distinguished
Uhioan, if elected, would have
nohing for the colored folks to do"
We accepted these statements at
heir face value until we noted that
lion. Harry c. Smith of Ohio, a
statesman, whom we regard upon the
race question. as 1.-The noblest Roman
Of them ALL. came out in strong
advocacy of the nomination and
election of Mr.. Harding. He based
il upon the friendship existing be-
tween Mr.. Harding and the late
Senator J. B. Foraker. Mr.. Harding
was elected and during all those
weary months of waiting, when evil
dences were multiplying that Mr..
smith had been woefully mistaken
in his choice. he said absolutely
nothing.
He declined to believe his own
eyes or to accept the testimony OF
his own ears. Mr.. Harding deserted
those race-defenders of the H. G..
Smith type and adopted a middle
of the road policy. which carried
practically no Negro recognition.
We have not been able to find in any
Issue of the ably edited Cleveland,
D. Gazette one line in condemnation
of President Harding's policies. But
wnen Hon. Calvin Coolidge came
upon the field of action, the vitriolic
attacks which followed showed the
existence of "pentup" feeling
which longed for an opportunity to
assert a-self.

Is Explained by Varied
Styles Possible in Type

Why the bungalow is so popu-
lar is easily enough answered if
you will visit the folk who dwell
in them Bungalow" is a word
that covers every art and crime
in the building industry, from
the one-room shack to any one
story, stately mansion D1nt of
concrete, marble and beautiful
woods. The bungalow originated
in India. One-story houses have
been built in other places from
the earliest times, but they never
were graced by that name.
GlOrified Apartments.
The modern bungalow home is a
sort of clarified apartment placed
on a plot Of land where the win
dows open on green grass and trees
instead Of brick-lined courts Every
convenience and inconvenience Of
apartment life can be had in a
family house. In some cases 1t is
cheaper to build a full two-story
house than a bungalow. There is
less roof to cover and less founda-
ton needed to support the struc-
ture, but there are other considera-
tons besides the saving of a bit
Of money.
There are many persons to whom
stair climbing is a bothersome la
Dor, and for these folks the home
Of one floor is more desirable.
Bungalows can consist of anything
from one room up and still have
many Improvements that will add
to the convenience Of the occupants
at minimum Of expense. Bunga-
low building is popular. It meets
the demands Of a large number of
persons, and the builder who spe.
cializes in bungalow homes and puts

Construction Is Varied.
The construction Of a bungalow
will vary from the simplest form of
wood framing used for the summer
camp to solid stone masonry, wood,
stucco, hollow tile, brick, steel, ce-
.ment blocks, solid concrete and cut
stone all enter into the construction
Of modern bungalow homes.
It Is true there is more roof
and foundation to q bungalow for
the same number Of square feet
than in a two-story house, but
there is no reason for having a eel
lar under the entire bungalow. The
exterior design is adaptable to
many treatments. Every type of
architecture has been called upon
to grace bungalow designs. One
may have Greek temple or a
little English cottage with a
matched roof. They are all bunga.
