'HOME-L|KE" TERM
HELD AMBIGUOUS
Relative Values of Detached
Houses and Apartments
Discussed.
BY LEWIS l.. YOUNG.

The term 'homelike features.
sometimes, used TO describe apart
ments. is perhaps as ambiguous as
that of "hOme cooking" employed by
sentimental restaurant proprietOrs to
advertise their cuisine. There appears
to be no more unanimity of opinion as
to just what constitutes ''homelike fea
lures" than there is as to "home cook
ing" The poet who penned the ia
miliar line, BE it ever so humble,
there is no place like home" evidently
regarded home as the most comfort
able earthly spot, Notwithstanding the
absence of palatial fittings
The first impressions of home, or
what is "homelike," may have been
indelibly formed during childhood
when we made our homes in houses
of somewhat different type than
those of today. House and home"
are used to a large extent synoni-
mously, yet present day apartment
planning has not linked that type of
accommodation 50 closely to home"
as the private dwelling. Comparing
the apartment with the dwelling. the

former appears to lack many of the
desirable features Of the latter.
In Summer a private house is more
likely to be comfortable for the rea-
son that the house has cross venti-
lation and may possess a porch. while
the apartment in many cases has but
one exposure and seldom an outdoor
room. Commenting upon the i'll eff
fects of sweltering spell in our big
cities. the late Gen. Goethals once re-
marked that Summer in the tropics
was less uncomfortable than in New
York because houses in the Canal
Zone were designed with view to
securing comfort in warm weather.
which cannot be said of many of
Gotham's apartments. or New York
ers living on the East Side and other
congested areas would not be driven
for relief to spend the nights upon
the beaches of Coney Island or the
lawns of Central Park.
Most apartments having but one
exposure. particularly western. are
insufferable during torrid weather, as
are rooms located Immediately under
certain kinds of roofing. especially
if there is little or no ventilating
space between the roof and top floor.
While ample, provision is made for
heating at other times of the year,
the necessity for making apartments
habitable during Summer is neglected.
The cooling atmosphere that some
times follows thunderstorm does not
permeate the rooms until hours after
the showers. On one side Of the win
dow sill it may be well nigh sitting.
while on the other it is refreshingly
cool. The balcony or porch is obvi-
Ously essential in cities having Sum
mers like those of Washington. and
is probably more desirable means of
securing a comfortable temperature
than are ice-cooled Sentiiators.

Informal Farewell
Party to XiOlinist

The home of Mr.. and Mrs. H. r.
Witham of First street was the scene
of one of the prettiest and happiest
events of the season, when they
opened 1t to the young friends of
Delmiro Taddei, about 80 assembling
after the arrival of the guests at 100.
The house was attractively decorat-
ed throughout. The hall and dou-
bic parlors We're done in pink, with
clusters of pink roses adjoining the
windows, and the double door being
draped in pink crepe paper. The
living room Was decorated with
streamers of yellow with a large red
rose suspended from the center of
the room. The festivities of the
evening started with the singing of
popular songs by the young people,
accompanied by Miss Barbara Nc
Donald at the piano and Mr.. Taddei,
VloIlnlst. The young men wishing
10 start a little fun during the sing
ing, called upon some of the guests
to give an exhibition of the Charles
ton. Finally Margaret Witham led
and was followed by Scott NcDon-
aid, Harold LaChance and Albert
Moore and each received generous
applause. Four card tables were
hlled throughout the evening, and
three beautiful vocal selections were
rendered by Miss Marion Stanley
and Mr.. Taddei in his usual pleas
ing way favored the guests with
several beautiful violin solos, accom-
panied by Harriet Patterson at the
piano. Following the musical pro-
gram the guests were invited to the
dining room, which was beautifully
decorated. The table was draped in
the colors of Italy, green, white and
red. Streamers of red, white and
