outhern Branch Has Large
Porch, With Tall Columns,
Making Front Shady
Long Windows and Wide
Lawn Also Characteristic.
Ey Molly Elliott

According to a popular idea,
a Colonial house is any resi-
dence that has a center en-
trance door and hallway,
columns supporting shallow
portico and green shutters at
the windows. Some even omit
the green shutters, but the cen
ter hall and the columns are re-
garded as distinguishing marks
almost as definite as trade
name.
The belief, of course, has a
foundation of fact, though there are
many modern variations of the
purely Colonial design. In practical
ly every Colonial house, however,
the columns are used, although they
vary in height and arrangement. In
the Southern Colonial these columns
extend a full two stories. If the
mllouse is a two story one; or, If it
single dwelling, they support
the main roof rather then small
roof above the center door.
Shade In Front
This arrangement gives wide
space of shade across the entire
front of the house, a feature both
practical and attractive in sunny
climates. Long windows in proper
ton to the tall columns and a
frontage sufficiently wide to balance
the height emphasized by the ver-
teal lines of the columns are also
Characteristic, and a spacious ex-
panse of lawn seems almost es-
sential for proper display Of such a
house
The New England Colonial was
designed for different climate and
for people who preferred
simplicity to the point of severity.
There were few large porches, for
New England weather does not en-
courage long hours in a porch
chair.
Larger Halls
The space was used in large liv-
ing rooms and generous entrance
halls. Columns are seen as orna-
mental supports to portico above
the entrance door The roof of the
New England Colonial is, like that
Of the English house, steeply
sloped, and the solid shutters bar
cold winds as well as sunshine.
Small paned windows were a neces-
sity in Colonial days, for large
sheets of glass were costly.
Now the divided windows are more
: ypensive to install than single or
EYhuble panes, but they are in keep
ing with the spirit Of the original
houses. The graceful fanlight above
the panelled door is also a distinctive
feature of the Colonial house, and
frequently narrow panels inset with
small panes of glass are placed at
the side of the entrance door to give
better light tot the hallway.

daytime what a shaded lamp does
for the room at night. 1t softens
the harsh light that Is so trying to
the eyes and to the appearance of
anyone who must be subjected TO 1t.
Awnings are a real economy in
protecting delicate rugs and drap-
cries that fade in too brilliant sun
shine. A telephone call at Harrison

Opaque glass that obscures outlines

Augusta Purchasers
OF Mining Stock
Interested i'm Case

Augusta people who, two years
ago, purchased shares of Willard Sii.
yer Lode and Ontario mining stoch
are awaiting with interest further
developments in the case Of Harry Q
Rideout, charged with selling stocks
without being registered under the
State laws, which will be heard TINS
morning at the Portland municipal
court.
It was set forth In the warrant tha'
Rideout had sold shares of this stocf
to Cecil v. Pullen Of Portland fol
$500 and that Lena M. Leland also
of Portland had bought some OF the
same stock for $40. Rideout has
been away from Portland for two
years, visiting there occasionally for
a few hours but he has never beer
seen by officers, who recognized MIN
or by the purchasers of the stock

CASSED WORLD WAR VETERAN
ON LAST LAP OF 100000 mile
hike FOR HEALTH AND WEALTH

were physical wrecks as the result
of having been gassed in service.
To see the stalwart, husky, rudy
visaged soldier of the open road as
he is today, it is difficult to believe
that Sergeant Duffy, who now tips
the scales at about 226 pounds,
weighed but ia when he made his
start from Boston, Mass, five years
ago next January list, but the hiker
has photographs of himself to show
his puny physique then.
After interviewing Governor Ralph
O. Brewster of Maine, and Mayor
Ernest L. Mclean of Augusta some
time today, and securing the official
seals and signatures of the city, and
the state, Sergt. Duffy will leave for
PoHtland and then to Boston, from
which point he will sail to Phila-
delphia. The hiker must go to
Washington and secure an endorse
ment on his credentials from Presi-
dent Coolidge and then he will be
on the home stretch to Baltimore.
where his five year grind will end
at Johns Hopkins Hospital.
The long distance pedestrian is
permitted to accept rides whenever
proffered. but during the time limit
of the endurance contest he also
InuSC walk total distance OF 4U,UUU
miles, so from Augusta he will have
to register 700 miles more on his
pedometer to fulfill the terms of the
contest.
When Sergt. Duffy reaches Balti-
more sometime next month, he will
be one of the principals in little
drama OF domesticity, as he will
again be reunited with his wife, who
is a nurse at the Johns Hopkins
Hospital and who started him away
five years ago, broken in health and
nearly a physical down-and-outer.
Mrs. Duffy was a nurse in the World
War and served in France as did
the husband who has since fought
his way back to health and sanity.
Sergt. Duffy served first as a
courier with the French army. and
later as member Of the 117th En-
gineers of the 42nd (Rainbow) Di-
vision. He wears a composite uni
form and hiking regalia, and has
assembled an interesting and extern
sive collection of autographs. state
and city seals, and insignia and ar
ray of medals, in the many sections
of the country that he has visited
His journeyfngs have-taken him in
to the Canadian Provinces besides
every one of the forty-eight states.
By the terms of the agreement at
the start of the competitive hike,
his expenses are paid by the sale
of souvenir cards, which carry
picture of himself.

LONDON, Dec. fs.ZThe action OF
Turkey in ereaklng diplomatic rela-
tons with the kingdom of lrak, which
is a British mandate, has put the
Baldwin government on the defensive
and "unoffical" sources reveal that
the governments policy is to be con-
-eiliatory, with an effort to bride Tur-
key by promises of compensation in
the way Of land grants elsewhere.
When Prime Minister Baldwin read
the text of the league Of nations deci-
sion in the house of commons yester-
day afternoon it became apparent that
there is going to be serious opposi-
ton to the extention of the British
mandate over Irak for another rs
years, not only from labor and liberal
opposition, but from a strong element
in Baldwin's own party as well.
Answering questions on the crisis
Baldwin asked the house to wait I'M
til the return of L. S. Amery, the
colonial minister from Geneva, when
an opportunity will be given for a full
debate.
