The new home of DR.. F. H. Mistretta,
recently completed, at 1911 Woodland
drive. Massachusetts, Park, is large
stone house of modified colonial char
acter, overlooking the forested and roll
ing contour of the nearby Rock Creek
Park The requirements of the owner
were considered in the plans, drawn
by Porter & Locke, and this gave the
rather unusual effect to the outside ele-
vationS producing long, low architec-
tural lines.
Plans were drawn to give the mai
mum amount of wall space and an ade-
quate amount of good light and ventila-
ton. The stone used is from local
quarries and is set in irregular pattern
and the pointing is that of the rough
joint, flushed full, covering part of the
stone work.
Opening off the large hallway on the
first floor, which has large pasSageways
onto the terrace and garden, is a spa
cious living room, and at the other end
large dining room. Both of these
rooms have an outlook on the terrace
and garden. A small library, breakfast
room and lavatory also are on this floor,
with the kitchen, pantry and laundry

URGES ALL-YEAR BUILDING
Committee Chairman Says Work
Can Be Carried On in Winter

Committee Chairman Says Work
Can Be Carried On in Winter.
In study of Winter building by the
seasonal operations committee of the
New York Building Congress, B. H.
Waite, chairman, says there is no valid
argument against all-year operations.
THE committees investigation so far
shows" stated Mr.. Waite, that H.
month building grogram is desirable,
practicable and, what is more, profit
able. In the past, owners. architects
and contractors we're loath to begin
actual operations during Fall and Win
ter months. but that condition is rap
idly changing as the facts of successful
operations are known.
Many of the largest building organ
izations operating in the Eastern United
States have concentrated on continuous
production of buildings and have
reached the point where lay-offs due to
weather are no greater in Winter than
in Summer. This may seem startling
observation, but it is Substantially accu-
rate The usual Winter depression In
building can be avoided and every
branch of the industry and allied in
tarests benefited by continuous opera
ton. The owner gets better quality
workmanship and lower costs OF ma

Health Hints
by DIR. NORRIS EISUSEIN
Editor journal of the American
Medical Association an dOf Hy-
gcia, the Health Magazine.

A few diseases are particularly Gs-
ISOLATED with races or with special
types Of human beings
The Jewish people have preserved
their racial type to a remarkable de
gree. There are now about three and
a half million Jews in the United
States. and their health conditions
constitute an important problem.
1t is known. for instance, that
diabetes is more common in Jewish
people than in others. Obesity oc
ours among them to a larger extent
than among p"opl" generally. ON
the other hand they have 81 com
paratively higher resistance than do
OF her groups to tuberculosis, and
their sobricty is proverblal SO that
alcoholism is exceedingly rare.
This does not mean the they are
total abstainers. but rather that they
do not drink to excess. In this con-
ncction. il is interesting TO point out.
as does Sir Humphrey Rollestcn,
that when the modern Jew cuts
/ himself adrift from the influence Of
| his race, he does not remain sober.
! one of the unusual conditions
which occurs more frequently
among Jews than ecntiles is called
thrombo- angitis ohliterans, a form
of disease of the blood vessels with
| redneSS of the feet. severe pain Oc-
| casionaily and sometimes such IN
reference with the circulation that
! removal OF the limbs may be neces-
sary.
1t is a rather interesting fact that
recently. since thu condition has
been definitely eSta blI~lled. cases are
also seen in other races, SO that OF
2uo cases seen in one large clinic, >"
per cent we're jewish and the re
maind-r was distributed among
many peoples.
Rollestnn considers that there Is
a racial liability 10 the special dis
case of the arteries here concerned,
New Britain herald., 1928-11-09

and that excess smoking is in some
way associated with its onset.
AS has been pointed out, diabetes
occurs more frequently in Jewish
persons than in others: indeed. 1t
has been estimated as being from
twice to six times as high as in 9TH
err races. There is a definite relation
ship between overweight and the on
set OF diabetes.
One series Of figures indicates that
diabetes follows overweight in one
out of every twelve gentiles and III
one out of every eight Jews.
That obesity must have some
definite relationship is indicated by
the fact that Jewish children do not
have diabetes more often than gem
tile children. but that the increased
rate occurs most frequently between
40 and 50 years Of age.
