d. C. BUILDING $8,OOO,OOO
OYER 1924 TOTAL NAY /
Homes for 10000 Persons Provided in
n Construction During Ten Months
of Present Fiscal Year.

Building construction in Washing
fiscal year is practically $4,000, 900
ahead of the entire last fiscal year
The records of the building inspec
tors office show that from July ] /,
1924, until May /. 1925, the total
amount of construction authorized
amounted to $47. .379 ,46S The entire
total in the 1923-24 fiscal year
amounted to only $3e, 403, ,2e7.
With two more months to go, and
the great boom in building here still
increasing, there is every prospect
that this fiscal year will show a rec
ord total of $50 900 900. or about
$4,000, 900 ahead of 1923, the record
breaking year for construction in the
District
With the present amount of s4T,
1874 indicat tions are that this
month will show an addition of
s6000,00 or more. June, being a
good building month and number Of
projects of considerable proportions
at present in the offing will probably
establish the record breaking total.
An analysis of data compiled by
Mrs. w. II. Collins of the building
statistics department of the Wash
ington Board of Trade. shows many
interesting details in regard to the
various types of construction under
taken during the first 10 months of
this fiscal year.
During this period housing units
for about 10000 people were author
ized. A total of 3,19S one or two
family dwellings We're constructed.
Sixty three apartment houses with a
capacity of 1,647 apartments were
built. This gives a total Of 4.S46
housing units. MULTIPLYING this by an

Desi On Of Unusual
Beauty and Dignity
Metal Lath and StuccO Dress
an Interior of Ideal Plan
and Proportions.

The contours of the country as
well as the occupation and needs of
the people are great deciding points
in the lines of architecture. In every
individual there is natural impulse
toward beauty which develops in diff
ferent ways, one of which is from
natural environment. When a man
builds house he puts all of his con-
scious knowledge of beauty into 1t.
His home, therefore, is an expression
of his character.
The house this week is of metal
lath and stucco. When stucco is
properly treated. il becomes one of the
most beautiful of surfaces. 1t can be
dead, cold. monotonous gray, or it
can be warm, glowing surface upon
which passing cloud surfaces play or
a flower Is silhouetted II also re-
fleets family the colors of the flowers,
so that the plain surface is always
full of beauty. 1t makes one of the
best possible backgrounds for garden
pictures. The creepers will cling to
it, embroidering 1t with exquisite
tracery.
In this house we have made the liv-
ing room large, lighted it from three
directions, placed d large fireplace
where it will give the utmost possible
cheer, and added a sunroOm that
would be beautiful both in Summer
and Winter
The dining room is on the opposite
side of the hall and separated from
the kitchen by d most complete pan
try. In this pantry there are nu
merous drawers to hold the linen used
in the dining room. and above them
are shelves inclosed in glass to hold
the dishes used in the setting of the
table. There is also ample space for
sink and two drain boards, which are
on the same level with the running
boards of the dressers. This arran nge-
ment enables the worker to move
dishes from one place to the other
merely by sliding, instead of awkward
lifting and carrying TO and fro. The
sink Is beneath a window, so that all
possible light is given to the worker,
while at the same time she may have
chance to glance occasionally at the
garden back of the house.
In the kitchen also is found "A com
plete arrangement for the workers
comfort. There is large porcelain
sink and ydrainboard in one piece.
