FIRST STAR HOME
TOBE OPEN MAY 4
Four Others Will Be Placed on
Exhibition in Succeed
ing Months.

Public exhibition of the five 1890
Star model homes, now under construc-
ton in keeping with detailed plans ap-
proved by committee of experts, will
start two weeks from tomorrow.
At that time, May 4, the first of the
series sponsored by The Star in CO.
Association, Colonial dwelling erected
at 6502 Maple avenue, Chevy Chase,
Md, by the firm of Shannon & LuchS,
Inc will be thrown open to the pub
lie for a month of inspection.
The four other dwellings, all now
in an advanced stage of construction,
will be placed on exhibition in sue
ceeding months, thus affording resi-
dents of Greater Washington an I'M
usual and distinctive program, lasting
five months.
Houses Reveal Artistry.
Construction of the five houses has
reached a point now where they reveal
concrete promise of the varied and ap-
pealing study they will present in the
near future when all interested in
modern home development will be in
vited to inspect the dwellings, their
landScaping, equipment and decora-
ton. Each house will be furnished for
the period of exhibition.
The program will be especially in
teresting, because the size, location,
type of construction, design, decora-
ton and cost of construction of each
house is different. The magnitude of
the program may be seen in the fact
that the five completed properties will
have valuation totaling well over
100000.
First Virtually Is Completed.
Shannon & Luchs have virtually
completed preparation of the first
model home, which is in the forest
section Of Chevy Chase. The Wood
ward g. Lothrop department store this
week started to furnish the house for
the demonstration. This was started
after finishing touches had been placed
on the building. Workmen are complet-
