Farm Houses Now Have
All Modern Convenience

Development of home equipment has
made 1t possible to place every mod
ern convenience Of the city residence
In the farmhouse.
Heating Is naturally considered first.
Stoves and freplaces are disappearing.
Basement heating plants are in COM
NOR use, one Of the most popular
types being the pipeless furnace. This
Is because Of the fact that little heat
is thrown out except through the top,
which allows the basement to continue
to be used for storing foods. All types
of warm air, steam and hot water
heating plants are installed on farms
nowadays, however.
Running water Is just as essential
on the modern farm as In the city,
as plumbing systems, sewage disposal
and efficient laundries depend upon
q constant water supply. Aside from
the house supply, water should be
available for the dairy barn, feeding
yards, garage. lawn and garden, and
for fre protection.
1t y to be noted that the small
water tank In the attic and the larger
water tower outside the house, are
being supplanted by steel tank pres>
sure systems located in the basement,
or buried underground.

Good Lumber Necessary
for Good Construction

II lumber is worked on the "job''
1t takes additional time for the car
penters and additional money from
the builder. The best workmCn can-
not build a good-looking home with a
poorly manufactured product.
For that reason 1t is only good
business when building a home to rely
upon some known lumber that Is man
ufactured by q reliable firm. And the
best security is In a trade-marked
brand Of lumber, for here the manu-
facturer must depend upon his lumber
to make his easily distinguishable
product acceptable to the building
world.
There are many frame homes stand
ing today that were built when the
United States was confined to the east
coast. This, coupled with the fact
that lumber now is prepared much
more scientifically and more carefully
than when those houses were built
indicates the homes built soundly to-
day will last as long as those of the
past.

PIenywood Seniors
Selected Glass PLAY

Our reporter was informed that the
Senior class of Plentywood High School
had selected and started work on their
class play. under the direction of Mrs. O.
A. Opegrand, last Monday.
The play is entitled Come Out of the
Kitchen by A E.. Thomas.
The cast was decided upon although
changes may be made as rehearsals,
progress. 1t is as follows:
Olivia %Daingerfeld( alias Jane Ellen)
Louise Knight. Elizabeth Daingerfeld
(alias A%raminta), Elenor Stamboueh
Mrs. Falkner(T fuckers Sister,, Marguerite
Lee Cora Falkner(her d~aughter), Helen
Crohn. Amanda Olivia's negro ~servant).
Gladys Dodge. Burton Crane, a million
aire from the north; Royal Greer. Thom-

Scion Tucker, Cranes attorney and guest:
Olaf Granvold. Paul Daingerfield; Lynn
York. Charles ~Daineerfield. alias Brin-
dIebury; Paul Olson Randolph Weeks,
agent of the Dainger1elds; Gordon Peter
son.
The play is set in the .'old South and
has its many amusing incidents as well
as a few of the sad ones. AS the whole
thing goes the play is a scream from be-
ginning to end due to the unexpected
turns of events that persist in making
their appearances.
1t is conceded by the Seniors that this
will be the best Senior Class play ever
put on by them or n other senior class
in Plentywood.

Getting an attractive new home at
a comparatively low cost is not such
a difficult matter. Proper selection
of a BODYBUILDING design and Of ma

prospective home builders a comfort

to the eye as well.
An excellent example of what may
be obtained In this manner is shown
In the Illustration. Here is a two

popular a few generations ago be-
cause Of its low cost. But added to
1t are 4 sur parlor, q terrace and an
o~verhanging roof, which transform the

Paint Spots

Cure Of bleached-out patches In
paint, appearing In six to twelve
months from the time Of painting, can
be accomplished easily. The fault is
that the paint used has failed or
broken down too rapidly by what is
known as "chalking." The pale-faded-
spotty appearance is due to loose pig
ments freed from the vehicle and held
ms n powder on the surface. Wash
this spot well with n damp cloth and
tic original color will reappcar.

When Floors Shrink

1t frequently happens that floor

In before re1nishing. OF course, they
are always filled with dirt which must
be carefully removed and the cracks
busted out.

to make themselves at home IN the
movies.
More than 80 years ago ]. Stuart
Blackton was starred in film en-
titled "Blackton, the Evening World
Cartoonist." That was when the
movies were so new that a city
editor sent young Blackton to
Orange, N. j., to interview and
sketch Thomas A. Edison. who was
reported to have invented motion
picture machine that actually work
ed. When Edison saw his interview
er could draw he made a short film
Of him doing his stuff"
Blackton later became a pro-
ducer and director which may have
encouraged other newspaper artists.
for they have come to the movies
ever since Among the directors and
actors who formerly drew cartoons
for a living are Larry Semon. the
direstor- comedian: Malcolm st.
Clair. director; Harry Langdon.
comedian; Gay Cooper, new western
star, and Gregory LaCava, director.
LaCava tried painting first. then
became a newspaper cartoon!st, and
then maker of animated cartoons
for the movies. He still makes
animated pictures. but with people
instead Of pen and ink.

5000 FIRE DAMAGE WHEN COOP BURNS Lone Setting Hen in Structure
 When Fire Starts NO ASSISTANCE CALLED
Cast of Church Play Announced - Two Suspects for Coles Robbery Held In New Britain-Post Onicc Hours for Good Friday.

Fire of an undetermined origin yesterday afternoon destroyed a modernly equipped chicken coop valued at approximately S6oo To- cated on the property of Paul Ca wall some distance from the Merl- den turnpike in the southern part Of town. The New Britain Fire de- partment was not called by town officials who, although notified by the owners, decided that no benefit would be received by the summon ing of the apparatus.
 The fire was discovered about 1 o'clock by one of the Cavall chil- dren who was returning from school. He ran to the garage owned by John Hannon who sent in a call to Town Clerk Arthur l.. Woodruff. At the same time q passing motorist called at the town clerks office and reported the fire.
 Mr. Woodruff. hailing a passing car, went to the scene Of the fire and after examining the surround ing conditions. decided that the calling Of the New Britain trucks would not help. The coop, which was 36 feet long with a cement flooring and of new structure, was situated some 20 feet from the Ca wall dwelling and a barn. 4 strong west wind removed all possibility of the flames spreading to the dwelling and ploughed land before the coop removed possibilities of brush fire. No water connections were available at the scene and the spectators combined their efforts in preventing any possible spreading of the flames.
 Mrs. Cavall. who was alone in the dwelling at the time the fire broke out, was at loss to explain the sudden conflagration. One lone set ting hen occupied the building at the time and no incubators or brooders were enclosed in the building. The building was partially covered by insurance. according 10 the owner.
 The blaze was spectacular while 1t lasted. keeping the workers at some distance because of the in- tense heat Motor traffic stopped as drivers lined the roads to view the flames.
