REALTY ADVERTISING
METHODS OUTLINED
Schedule Prepared in Guidance Of
National Association Members Con-

Following the suggestion for control

city plan committee of the National
Association of Real Estate Boards to
the 657 member boards Of the asso-
citation some weeks ago, the Los An
geles. Calf, Realty Board has pre-
pared schedule of suggestions to all
realtors in it's membership asking
them voluntarily to limit size and
placement of all For sale" signs
used by them in their own business.
The Los Angeles board recommends
tions are practically identical with
those drafted by the national COM
mittee for the consideration of mem.
Der boards. The recommendations
were based on the position that use of
billboards in scenic regions along
rural highways or in residential sec.
tons of communities should be so con-
trolled as to conserve the beauty of
the regions for the general public.
Members of the Rockville Center
Chapter Of the Long Island Real
Estate Board have adopted a resolu-
ton calling for the removal of all
For Sale signs on houses and lots
in residential sections.
The action was taken with a view
toward conserving the natural beauty
of the residential sections Of Rock.

What we need today more than any
thing else to bring us into a proper
recognition of our obligation to society
and to fit us for our responsibilities as
citizens of a great republic is more
homes and better home life; homes
where the atmosphere is such as will
permit our boys and girls to grow up

our citizenship we have ever had to
look for guidance and we must con-
tinue to look for successful leader

Therefore, let us courageously face
our responsible duties and discharge
them IN a way becoming American
citizens. Let us not waver in combat
ing influences injurious to the home
and the things for which the Ameri-
can home stands. Let us think more
earnestly and do more effective work
to preserve the purity of the home and
its character. 1t is the home that has
made our Nation great and the home

PLANTS SHOULD BORDER
LAWN WITH CENTER OPEN
Changes From Scattered Conditions
Not Hard to Make, and Beauty
Is Enhanced.

The center of the lawn should al
ways be left open and planting con-
; fined entirely to the borders and
house foundation. All of which
sounds very well to one who is
building, or rather getting ready to
unfortunates who already have houses
and lots that are "all wrong" from
standpoint of design?
Where and how shall they begin?
Service areas again become first
consideration; we must have them,
but the problem is to get them all
together. and out of the way, instead
of scattered widely all over the. lot.
Kitchen entrance and garage should
be on the same side of the lot, If
possible.
Sometimes a small garage can be
moved short distance at small ex-
pense, providing there is not already
q permanent drive. At least as
many service units as possible should
be together. Garage. drive, kitchen
entrance. laundry yard, vegetable
garden and possibly swings, trapeze
of sandpiles should be grouped to-
gether just as much as possible, and
arranged in the least amount of
space.
Next, we must try to relate some
portion of the living side of the
house to the grounds. which is not
always easy, and sometimes impossi-
bic. Usually the yard has been all
cmttered up with clotheslines, vege-
tables, fruit trees and the like. scat
tered aimlessly about: with the serv-
ice parts removed, probably the first
step is to open up the lawn.
With the lawn opened up, the next
step is that of building up the bor-
ders which will give privacy from
without and beauty from within:
here again, with open space to work
in, we may follow practically the
some suggestions made previously
regarding formal and informal de-
sign. Full grown, existing trees
should not hamper us, but become
great asset to the setting

BY GEORGE f.. McKINNTS,

The American home is our most i'm
portant institution. Upon the home
rests our social, political and economic
structure. It is impossible for civil-
Zation to live without the sustaining,
protecting and refining influence OF
the home.
The downfall of every nation Is
traceable to the disintegration of the
home. and the rise of every nation is
credited to the wholesome life and
character of the home. Without the
home, religion, education, industry
and patriotism would cease to WELD
their influence and power for the up
lift of humanity. In short, if the
home is destroyed all is lost
The home is the mother of all nsti-
tutions. The state and the nation are
the offspring of the home. 1t is the
only institution that has survived OPP,
posing forces to human progress, and
today it stands supreme in it's place
and service of producing men and

INTERIOR DECORATION
BIG FEATURE OF HOUSE

In planning the home Of today much
thought Is given to interior decora-
ton. The proper selection and ar
rangement of the furniture, the right
lighting effects, correct draperies, ap.
propriate floor coverings-all contrib
ute to harmonious atmosphere.
Perhaps no other one thing offers
such a wide scope for the exercise of
good taste as the choosing of proper
window draperies that will be in keep
ing with the room.
In the selection of draperies two
things are important. Fabrics OF ap-
propriate shade and type must be
chosen and the correct style of drap-
ing must be used. The purchase Of
the most costly materials on the mar
ket will avail nothing If they are not
adapted to their surroundings or If
they are not properly arranged.
There are appropriate styles Of win
dow draperies for every room. Some
are made especially for living rooms,
matching portieres where desired
Other styles are particularly adapted
to dining rooms. Still others are suit
able for bedrooms, and in many cases
match the bedcover. Each room pre-
sents it's own particular problem-one
that can be solved only by giving con-
sidera ton to all the elements present.
Failure to observe any Of these fac
tors naturally lessons the chance of
securing the best results.
