PLAN INTERIOR
OF HOME FIRST

Fancy roofs, gay cornices, cute
little windows and trick furnaces
no matter how charging, should
be secondary to cross ventilation,
large closets and short halls, ae-
cording to Walter S. Frazier, dis
tinguished member Of the American
Institute of Architects.
Houses should be designed from
the inside out instead from the out
side in and it is not difficult to
achieve a lovely exterior IL the in
terror arrangement Is right, says
Mr.. Frazier. For instance, you
might be charmed by a picture Of
a long, low, rambling house, but
those picturesque lines may have
forced the kitchen into a wing far,
far from the dining room and you
wouldn't think Of exterior beauty
as you Travelled those extra steps.
