Basic Reason for Colony of
Painters in Southwest.

Taos, N. Nor all the aborigines,
the Taos Indian appeals to members
of the famous Taos artists colony as
having the background best suited to
the brush.
The picturesque setting in which
the Indian is found, and the Indian
himself, with his statuesque physique,
are the reasons why the eleven per-
sons--ten men and one woman-who
form the colony, are here.
"The Indians Of Old Taos hold to
their customs and costumes more
tenaciously than any Others" says
Burt Phillips, dean and founder of the
colony. They live in picturesque
environment in which they fit sum
mer and winter.
"The lure of the native Spanish life
around the plaza of Taos pueblo and
adjoining villages is strong. An end
less variety of subjects are here
available = the mountains, canyons
and means, and, above all, the mar
yelous coloring, which seems to find
its equal nowhere else in the coun-
try"
The Taos group is said to be among
the first band of artists to receive a
large order for pictures as an organi-
cation. Each member was commits
stoned to paint three murals for the
Missouri state capitol building As a
result OF the commission. the panels

To Preserve Family Home
of Discoverer of Pole.

Youngstown, Pa. - Unmarked for
years, known only to few historians,
and neglected to a great extent by the
owners for fifteen or twenty years, the
birthplace of Admiral Robert H.
Peary, discoverer of the North pole
at last bids fair to be made Into a
shrine.
Situated at the western end of Cres-
son, once a noted mountain resort In
Pennsylvania, and passed daily by
hundreds of motorists on the William
Penn highway, Is the house where the
famed explorer first saw the light of
day. 1t is frame dwelling of ordi-
nary appearance quite bit beaten by
the elements, but yet In an excellent
state of preservation. Some 10 years
ago new portion was built along one
side, but other than this, excepting the
necessary repairs required by the
weather. the house has not changed
much since the Peary family left 1t In
1857. y
1t was not until about a year ago
the immediate neighbors in Cambria
county became aroused and started a
movement in d small way to insure the
preservation of the house. At first the
movement Jagged. Publicity was neg
lected and in the section there were
but few who cared enough to really in
sure the purchase and the retention of
the home as memorial to the first
man to reach the top of the world.
D. A. r. Take It Up.
After few months of rather hap
hazard work the campaign was
brought to the attention of the Quema-
honing chapter of the Daughters of
the American Revolution. 1t imme-
Pennsylvania legislature and also car
ried the fight to several members of
congress. The chapter has obtained
permission to purchase the home and
convert ii into a memorial.
The Peary home Is at the junction
of the William Penn highway and the
Cresson pike. 1t is ideally situated
for Il shrine, and is one which is on
the line of travel and would be visited
by thousands annually.
Charles Peary, the father of the ex-
plorer, came to Cresson from Maine
and took up his residence In the house
next to the academy site. At that time
he was engaged in manufacturing
slaves for barrels and like articles,
which stood just across the road from
his home. He continued in the busi-
ness for years.

Heart Functions With
Nerves All Cut Away

st. Paul, Minn.--The heart,
with all nerve controls cut away,
will continue not only to func-
ton, but will meet the special
needs of the body through chem
ical control of the blood alone.
So declared X. Walter B. Can
non, professor of physiology,
Harvard University Medical
school, in a talk before the In
terstate Postgraduate Assembly
of America.

the sugar supply in the blood
runs too low, the heart will rise
TO the occasion, and pump
faster, even though there is no
nerve connection left to tell 1t
what to do" he said.
Speaking on "some recent
: revelations of the denervated
heart" Doctor Cannon asserted
that the chemical control Of the
denervated heart is largely
through the adrenal gland, just

Mr.. William A. Radford will answer
questions and give advice FREE OF
COST on all problems pertaining to the
subject of building, for the readers of
this paper. On account of his wide
experience as editor, author and man

No one should ever select a house
plan until he has definitely selected
the lot on which the house is to stand.
This is a fundamental principle in
house planning which is based on very
sound reasons. The first and most
important of these is that a house
should always be planned with the
physical conditions of its setting in
mind, whether the lot is deep and
narrow or broad and shallow, whether
1t is perfectly level or requires ter
race, it's elevation in relation to the
surrounding ground, how deep the
building line is, and what are the pos
sibilities of trees already growing or
which may be planted.
When surrounding houses have al
ready been built or planned, their
style, their size and placing should
also be considered, as well as their
color, for the appearance of even a
well-designed house may be ruined if
it does not harmonic with those
about 1t.
Where the house lot is deep and
narrow the house illustrated will give
the desired floor space without crowd
ing the available space too much and
cutting off the clearance and light
from fianking homes 1t is a bunga-
low home of considerably larger size
than would be imagined from the d.
rect front view. The outer walls of
stucco, are carried down to the grade
level and the ground line is broken
by the planting of shrubbery, which
also partially hides the basement win
dows. The lines are simple and the
decoration wisely limited. Entrance,
dormer and easement windows are
well designed and the whole effect
thoroughly pleasing.
From the front entrance one passes
into a central reception hall contain
ing a convenient coat closet and
f1anked by the living room and dining
room. The size Of the living room is
greatly amplified by the adjoining
sun parlor and many windows make
It light and cheerful at all times
Here is an interesting corner fire
place which, with its wood fire, will
