DriveUays and Walks
Add to Home Beauty

Perhaps there is nothing that lends
more to the appearance of the sur
roundings Of a home than neat, artis
tically placed walks and driveways.
Careful thought given to their plac-
ing and arrangement at the time they
are built will more than repay the
owner in the attractivenesS they will
add to the exterior of the home. Ev-
cry lawn offers a variety of possibili-
ties in location and arrangement.
Like streets and highways, walks
and driveways must be designed to
meet the needs of those who use them.
While it is generally desirable to have
them take the most direct route, pleas
ing effects can often be obtained by
the use of graceful curves. 1t is folly
to destroy a fine tree because it hap
pens to be in line with the route of
the walk or driveway; a graceful
curve around the tree does not incon-
venience anyone and it will add to the
beauty of the home surroundings.
Often such curves can be arranged
so that the garage is partially hidden
behind a clump of trees or bushes. Ia
building such curves, provision must
he made for the growth of the tree
to prevent it from raising or cracking
the concrete.
