LESSON NO.9 LIGHTING THE HALLS AND STAIRS

The main hall, where we well come our guests, may be large or 1t may be small, but probably noth- ing will light it as well as an at tractive ceiling fixture equipped with 6 total of from 50 to 100 watts of lamp bulbs.
 If the hall is large enough, we may add a pair of bracket fixtures on the wall at either side of a pretty mirror, or we may use a email table lamp, or candlesticks on 6 console table. When we do this, she lights should be well shaded, of course, and not too bright. Econ omy suggests the use of 15 or 25- watt bulbs.
 Upstairs halls or long private halls are usually best lighted with small ceiling fixtures equipped with 25 or 50-watt bulbs. In many homes, however, bracket fixtures may be used on the walls to give satisfactory lighting. When the house is wired, the lights in the halls shoulld be put in so that they may be lighted from either upstairs or downstairs.
 The lighting fixtures in the halls ought to be placed so that they will light the stairway as well as the hall. In large homes where the stairs turn or where there is 8 landing half way up, it may be ad- visable to install g small fixture at the turn to be sure the stairs are well lighted.
 LIGHTING THE OUTSIDE or
 THE HOUSE
 Many homes that are being built BOW have 8 du plex convenience out let installed on the porch so that portable lamps may be used tc make an outdoor living room IT pleasant weather.
 In every home some lighting is needed at the main entrance and other doorways for convenience and safety at night. Lanterns ot weatherproof metal are commonly used either as bracket or ceiling fixtures.
 The driveway to the garage will need some light, perhaps from 3 fixture attached to the outside oi the house. The lighting inside the garage should be installed so that 1t may be lighted from either the house or the garage. In more elab- crate homes the gateway and drlve may be equipped with ornamental lanterns or posts. .-.

Adequate Defensive Force
Is Reiterated.
COMPETITIVE BUILDING
PROGRAM FROWNED ON
Wilbur to Discuss Subject With
House Naval Committee
Tomorrow.

Naval building by the nations of the
world on competitive basis promises
little hope for the future, in the
opinion of President Coolidge.
These views, as expressed today at
the White House, were supplemented
by the statement that the President
regards s unnecessary any congress
sional inquiry into the state of the
Nations Navy.
With respect to the American Navy,
the administration viewpoint was
again defined as looking toward a
country without respect to steps TAX
en- by other nations.
Backed BY G. o. p. Leaders.
The Presidents disinclination to be
stampeded into a race with other ma
tions in the matter of military arma-
ments meets response from Republican n
leaders in Congress.
Furthermore, there is indication that
any investiga ton of the Navy by the
Senate naval affairs committee will
look into the sources of the agitation
which has been going on for several
weeks. seeking to prove that the United
States Navy has been permitted to fall
far behind what was contemplated un-
der the naval limitation treaty.
President Coolidge was represented
by visitors who have discussed the
matter with him as being thoroughly
aroused over what is now termed
propaganda to force the hand of the
Government.
Senator Curtis of Kansas. Republi-
can leader. and Senator Borah of
Idaho. chairman of the foreign rela-
tions committee, both insisted today
there is no danger OF being hurried
into expenditures for the Army and
Navy in proportions which would
lead to competitive armament.
No Danger, Borah Says.
There is no danger. in my opin-
ion." said Senator Borah, "of Con-
gress doing anything like that"
1t is known that the chairman of
the foreign relations committee has
talked with the President in regard
to this matter 1T is expected that
Senator Borah will. in the near fu-
ture. stress the situation in Congress.
The way to bring about disarma-
ment as an aid to peace to the world,
