AMERICANS WILL BE FREE

Injunction judges seem to have an
idea that, little by little, freedom can
be taken from American workers.
They seem to picture return to the
days when serfs humbly pulled their
forelocks before their "betters." This
indicates that judges have big lessons
to learn. Injunctions may come and
keep coming for time, but in the
end the issue will be settled in favor
of freedom. Nothing is more impor-
tant just now than the injunction issue
nothing more important than it be
settled right The injunction as abus-
ed in labor disputes must go.

With few exceptions no one on board the S. s. Aleutian knew of the supposed fire on the boat between Seattle and Ketchikan. Talking to officers of the vessel it is reported there was no blaze at all but it is presumed that following completion of new work in the cold storage holds the caulking in some manner became heated, beginning to smolder and the smolder there from caused the smoke. To avoid any possible fire steam was turned into the com partments which in turn ruined the perishables therein.

With the completion of the roof
sheathing during the past week, the
model home being erected at ROCK
Greek Park Estates under the spon-
sorship of The Evening Star and the
Home Owners Institute assumed its
architectural contour and brought the
construction 10 the stage at which the
interior work may he continued.
AS the house stands today the eX-
terror walls of rubble stone and brick
are completed and the wood sheathlng
of the roof is already covered with
tarred felt. a material which the Ed
son w. Briggs Co.. the builders, be.
lieve will protect the house against
the extreme temperatures. Over the
felt the exterior roofing of slate will
be laid, and this work will get under
way within a day or two. What
might have been a monotonous eX-
panse of roof has been relieved by in
teresting dormer windows, which
already are completed.
One of the most important items of
the truly comfortable houSe-the
proper installation of an effective
means to carry off water from the
roof-was completed also during the
past six days. The valley Hastings
around the chimneyS, the cutters and
downSpOutS, all of heavy -guage cop
per, are in place.
Some of the finish woodwork on
the exterior was completed with the
erection of the gable holdings. cor
nices and the verge boards and be-
fore this material was set up it was
stained. The main porch is COM
pleted also and the attractive merg-

yard, have been reinforced with
larger and freer-growing plants, in
GLIDING lilacs. viburnums, loniceras
and RECALLS privet. Rough stone steps
and rustic seats have been built here,
to which can be added to advantage
a naturalistic pool and quantities of
native wild flowers. Within year
this planted and native growth should
develop into a very interesting garden
area of an individual and attractive
character.
Informal gardening is often more
difficult to conceive and execute than
the formal. Mr.. Small points out, be-
cause in the rustic" type of land
scaping there are fewer rules and
aXioms, and greater dependence upon
an inherent sense OF mass and proper
ton, attained only through observa-
ton of nature, is necessary. Time,
however, can be relied upon to soften
the informal planting because as the
trees and shrubs grow they will take
on interesting forms and develop
pleasing masses Of their own accord.

LYON VILLAGE MODEL HOME
NOW AT THE FINISHING STAGE
Structure Sponsored by The Star Will Be
Officially Opened August q for
Public Inspection.

The finishing stage in the construc-
ton of The Star model home at Lyon
Village, Arlington County, Va, has
been reached, and even though the
home will not be opened officially for
public inspection until August 28
hundreds of persons have visited the
house each Sunday to note the prog
ress as it was made.
Planned after the style of the ltal-
ian country house. this home, being
built by Lyon & Fitch, Inc, as the
second of the 1927 series of model
homes sponsored by The Star and the
Home Owners Institute, is modern
example of the Mediterranean archi-
lecture. Although following the de-
sign Of the Old World houses. this
home incorporates the most modern
building practices and equipment. The
massive walls typical Of that archi-
lecture rest upon monolithic founda-'
tons, and their unusual thickness
gives an air of substantially to the
whole structure as we'll as eXtraordi
nary depth to all reveals"
Little remains to be accomplished
in the actual construction of the
house. The floors are being Scraped
preparatory TO the Careful HIiSIllIiS
The lighting fixtures are being in
stalled now, and the various odds and
ends of decorative work necessary in
the proper finishing of a truly model
home are receiving attention. Prepa-
rations are under way for the land
scaping of the surrounding groungs, so
that the finished house will conform
with the remainder of Granada ter
race, upon which it is built. This sec
ton of Lyon Village is given over al
most entirely to the Mediterranean
type of homes, and the terrace, some
25 feet above Lee Highway. is reached
by a curving driveway. A low stone
wall, with decorative entrance. already
borders the drive on the highway side,
and before the house is formally
opened the drive itself will be sur
faced with tar-bound stone.

spected the home have commented

tons are that within short time
the framing of the house will be COM
pleted. With the erection of the franz
ing. metal lath of approved type will
be nailed to each joist and piece of
studding for the application of the
plaster.
Throughout the construction of this
house, only the best grade materials
are being used, to demonstrate, the
builders believe, that first quality
products add but little to the initial
cost of home, while they insure it
against unnecessary upkeep costs in
the future.
According to- present plans, the
house is to be completed and its
ground Handicapped by October %, at
which time it will be furnished and
opened for public inspection.

foundation laid shortly after ground

The concrete in the footings was made
of an even richer mixture of cement
and baser materials than modern
building standards require and they
were poured two feet wide and eight
inches thick. Upon this base, the

built and between the footings was

The Star model home at Wesley
Heights has demonstrated to it's thou
sands of visitors during the initial two
weeks of the four weeks exhibition
that the complete home is one in
which architecture, interior decoration
and landscaping are equally well de-
veloped.
It's planning wise and it's furnish
ing attractive, this house would have
lacked much of the charm it holds
for the persons who inspect it had
the grounds upon which it is set been
neglected. This house, built by w. {.
& A. n. Miller, of brick and half tim
Der, is distinctly informal and this
characteristic was enhanced by w. &
J. Sloane in the interior decoration.
In order to complete a pleasing COM
bination of house and grounds. the
aandscaping also adhered to informal
ity.
Commenting on the development
of the grounds of the Wesley Heights
model home, John H. Small, Sd, who
executed the landscaping, declared
that the character and lay Of the land
itself should dominate the completed
DEVELOPMENT at all times. The formal
house and garden, he points out,
should be placed on fiat or definitely
terraced areas, whereas the informal
type, such as this model home, APP
pears to best advantage on sloping or
irregular ground.
In locating the Wesley Heights
home a lot was chosen where the
existing grades were sloping, the lay
of the ground irregular, and a number
of native trees and shrubs, such as
pines. poplars, dogwoods and sumacs,
dominated the site.
The planting in front OF the house
has been kept informal, both in mass
and in the types of plants used. With
the exception of one or two ever
greens, most of the material used is
deciduous and of low-spreading char
acter, like the abelia, coralberry and
barberry. These informal shrubs
soften the foundation walls Of the
house and at the same time add color
and interest with their flowers and
berries.
The garden west of the living porch
has been cleared Of some of the
rougher native plants so that open
lawn area could be created. This
opening let's in air and sunshine and
has a tendency to increase the appar-
ent dimensions of the property. The
existing trees and shrubs which were
left as a boundary planting, screening

Attractive Features.

The metal easement windows which
will be used throughout the house
have been delivered to the site of the
building operation and they will be
installed within few days. A struc-
tural feature of this house which
should add to its livableness in eX-
treme weather is the hollow tile back
ing for the exterior masonry walls.
The use of a layer of this tile, each
piece of which contains three cells,
tends to create a semi-vacuum which
will arrest cold in Winter and heat in
Summer. The tile inner walls are
treated with a coating of tar prepare
ton to insure dryness. and over this
surface the plaster will be laid. On
certain walls, like inside partitions,
where lath is required as a plaster
base, the most modern designed metal
lath is used.
While structural progress is being
made on the house, the gas-tired heat
ing boiler is being placed in the base
ment.

except for it's communication with the
hall. There are windows on three
sides of the living room. and fully one
half of it's front wall is taken up by
French windows. thereby insuring
abundance of light and ventilation.
The living room section of the house
IS only one story high. but the main
portion of the house is of two stories.
This variation of skyline affords ample
opportunity for the development of
graceful breaks and curves in the
front elevation. The same outlines
are repeated in the wall ends on both
sides of the building.
