Second Floor Plan.

corner of the porch is feature which
adds a pleasing touch of individuality
to this house and together with the
treatment of plants, trees and vines
gives to satisfactory degree the ef-
feet of privacy.
The characteristic home-like tone Is
also found within the home. 1t may
be entered, from the porch, through
doors opening into both the living
room and dining room. The former,
placed at the front of the house, is
notable for its generous lighting sup
piled by windows on three sides and
is made cheerful by large fireplace.
The dining room is also well lighted
and large. From it stairway leads
to the upper floor.
Directly back of the dining room is
the kitchen, small but compactly ar
ranged and furnished with a large
storage pantry. Opposite this pantry
a breakfast room opens off the kitchen
while beyond is a small rear hall with
a door onto the back porch. From this
hall one also passes forward into
washroom the placing of which, on the
first floor, will prove a great labor
saver to the housekeeper, who is thus
saved the effort of many trips up and
down the basement stairs.
1t is at this point that one change
might well be made in this plan.
There is a door opening from the
washroom into the dining room While
it might often prove convenience
and would not be Objectionable If al
ways kept tightly shut, it would really
be better to separate the dining room
and Mushroom by solid wall.
On the upper floor will be found
three bedrooms. These are all large
and awell lighted with ample pro-
vision for cross ventilation Each is
provided with a closet and there is an
additional closet, for linens, in the
hallway. The bathroom is placed most
conveniently to serve all the bedrooms,
just beside the stairway.

TOMORROW
MORNING
BY DOUGLAS MALLocH

r EFT me lie down tonight content
To take nay burden up again
Tomorrow morning. Labor spent,
Let me lie down content, and then
Arise tomorrow morning glad
To take again the task / had.
Let me return to my old task
Tomorrow morning glad to see
Some duty that the day will ask
Tomorrow morning waiting me-
Yes, be it counter, bench or chair,
Be glad to find it waiting there.
But how tomorrow morning may
know the joy of days return?
Because, wonder, of my pay,
Because of money that I earn?
Well, men are paid worthy hire
lot of times, and yet they tire.
Tomorrow morning most depends
On not tomorrow but tonight.
Because today we lived it right
That makes tomorrow morning seem
A dawn as lovely as dream.
Live well the day, do we'll the deed,
Whatever deed is yours to do,
For, II you do, you do not need
To worry over mornings now,
Nor fear the sun, if this one sets
Amid no shadows of regrets.
Live well today, and leave no frayed
And tangled ends of things half done,
Things poorly said or poorly made, a
To greet tomorrow mornings sun.
If you would see the sun arise,
Then leave no clouds upon your skies.

How to Remove and
Prevent Scratch Marks

Scratches on the woodwork are ugly
and cause, often, for slight uprisings
in the home. These marks produced
sometimes by the careless lighting Of
match can be removed and also pre-
vented. To remove a scratch marx
use soap and application Of a stiff
nail-brush. To prevent them is a more
simple matter. Obtain a small guam
tity of albolene and rub the woodwork
well with it, then remove surplus with
a flannel rag. You can scratch as
much as you will and no marks viii
result neither will the match light.

questions and give ADVICE FREE OF
COST on all problems pertaining to the
subject of building, for the readers of

There are as many different kinds of
houses as there are different kinds of
people and it is an interesting game,
In passing along the street, to try to
guess what the people living in any
house are like, judging from the ap-
pearance of their home 1t is often
possible to make a fairly accurate
guess, too, for the knowing home build
er builds his own personality into his
home
The playing of this game has a real
value for it causes one to observe
more closely the characteristics of
various houses and thus aids him when
the time comes to plan for his own
home The interested observer will
find that every so often he sees one
house which, though very simple in its
style, makes strong appeal by virtue
If its decidedly home-like atmosphere.
Such a house is shown in the ac-
companying photograph.
Probably the broad circling porch
is as much as anything responsible
for this atmosphere. Porches seem to
be left out of the plan for a very large
number of modern homes. but there
are many who still feel that a porch
is an essential part of the home and
there are few to whom a porch does
not make its appeal.

SELMA
90, 1926, Western Newspaper Union)

NELINA is sometimes spelled Selena
~ and the latter shows clearly the in
fiuence of its interesting origin 1t was
adopted in England under the mistaken
impression that it reproduced the
French Celine, an error which later
proved fortunate since it introduced
charming name fitted to the fairest
English maid.
Selma signifies moon Selene was
the Greek term for the moon and
named another moon goddess, separate
from Artemis, or Diana. 1t seems to
have been favorite with goddesses
and sirens and other beautiful women
Of early history. One of the Cleopatras
was so called, we are told
Long popular in Greece and Egypt, it
did not make its appearance in Eng
land until the Nineteenth century when
it was adopted by the Wesleyan Coun-
tess of Huntington. Since then. its
vogue has been widespread on both
sides of the Atlantic. In this country
it is generally regarded as Puritan
name by those who are not aware of
it's earlier association with famous
sirens.
The moonstone is Selinas talismanic
gem. 1t will bring her success in love
and will preserve her charm and gra-
ciousness. Monday is her lucky day
and her lucky number

WHEN | WAS
TWENTY-ONE
BY JOSEPH KAYE
At 21-Josephus Daniels Painted -Edi-
tor" on His Door.

&c a T THE age of twenty-one | was
"A editor of weekly paper at VIII
son, N. G., known as the Wilson Adj
vancer.
Il had one ambition at that time.
and that was to be one day the editor
of the Raleigh IN. c. News and OBJ
server. That ambition was realized
and l have been the editor of this
paper for many years, so you see one
ambition of my life has been realized
Il am very happy in my work. To
be sure, was given a leave of alb
sence from the News and Observer to
be secretary of the navy for eight
years, but all the time | was publisher
of the paper.-Josephus Daniels"
TODAY-Josephus Daniels is al
ready recorded in history as the man
who headed the United States navy
during the war and his name will 90
down to posterity on that account
alone, and future generations of Amer
leans will read of him In school text
books
Daniels became secretary of the
navy in 1913 and remained in this post
for the period of the Wilson admin
istr8 ton.
In private life Mr.. Daniels ambition
was always along journalistic lines
and although he studied law and was
admitted to the bar at the age of
twenty-three, he never practiced-
preferring to lay down the law through
the medium Of the printed word in
stead.

Look to Title Of Lot
Before Purchasing

In buying home site it is adyis-
able to look up the records in the
county treasurer's Office and see
whether or not the property has been
posted for failure to pay taxes in the
last few years. Most realty com
panies furnish titles. but many private
sellers are lurking around waiting to
dispose Of property upon which they
hare paid no taxes.

The Federal government and the
several states have made the auto
mobile an all year instrument of
pleasure and entertainment.
When winter comes with its chill
ing blasts and drifting snow the
motorist need no longer put up his
car and wait patiently for spring
to bring back fair motoring days.
All he need do, if he is in the north,
lis point the nose of the car south

that leads to sunshine and flowers.
The roads have been made not only
adequate but splendid for all year

This fact is revealed by a survey
Just completed by the Automobile
Club Of Southern California in con-
junction with its thousands OF
sources of information from al

DR.. SAMPSON AT
HOME REPORTED
OUT OF DANGER

DR.. G.. P. Sampson, veteran
Winslow physician who was badly
injured the afternoon of November
10th when he was struck by a hit
and-run motorist, has been declar-
ed out Of danger by doctors who
attended him at the hospital in Al
buquerque, and he was permitted
to return to his shbme here with
Mrs. Sampson early this week
Owing to his advanced age, little
hope was at first held for Dr.
SIMPSONS recovery. Besides a
fractured leg, he suffered serious
bruises and shortly after the ac-
cident he developed a clot on his
brain which kept him delirious, in
termittently, for some days.
Mrs Sampson said last night
that Albuquerque doctors had de-
claled her husband to be out Of
danger, and had advised that he be
brought home, feeling that he
would mend more rapidly in famil-
lar surroundings. The doctor is
able to sit up practically the entire
day, and hopes to be back in his
office in short time

.HOLBROOK DRUG
STORE IS SOLD
TO TEXAS MAN

HOLBROOK, Dec 15-Sale of the
Holbrook Drug Company, CO.
partnership consisting of William
and James Scorse, for over twenty
years in that business here, was
made today to Fred G. Ruggles
who comes from Texas.
While the transaction was com
pleted here it is said that the trans
fer will not take place until next
Monday, or until the added cleri-
cal force completes taking invoice
of the stores stock.
Under the ownership and manag-
ment of the Scorse brothers, the
EIolbrook Drug Company has grown
from year to year to be one of the
most pretentious drug stores IN
Navajo county. Last summer Il
beautiful soda fountain and fix
lures were added to the store.
Scorse brothers had no statement
as to their future intentions, but
will undoubtedly remain in Hol
brook for some time.
