SEEM
RIGHT

fsnd IT'S really uuneeessary)-that
after clothes are clean you should
have 10 rinse and rinse and rinse
to get out part of tbe stuff fbas
sras IN the soSb. Ii is annoying.
But the answer is that when you
bought your soap, you got more
than soap. You got 'fHer-use-
less matter added to bring up
the weight. So you have TO rinse
away the filler.
There's no such problem when
you use White King. It's all tsre
SOAP, condensed. scientifically
made from high-grade vegetable
oils-so filler added. When you
see how richly it lathers, how
thoroughly il cleans, and how
quickly il rinses away, you'll ap-
preciate what that means.
You can use White King Gran
ulated Soap for everything-from
lingerie to blankets, dishes TO
shampoos. And a little goes q
long, long way. Try it today.

ROOF OF HOUSE
SHOULD BE- GIVEN
MUCH ATTENTION

When an architect begins to plan
a house he conceivcs of it as a whole
one harmonious composition of
walls, roof, windows, doors, color
and planting. The general form
and character of the roof is dictat-
ed by the style or period of the ar
chitecture. The roof treatment is
fully as important as the wall treat.
ment in expressing architectural
style. No very radical departures
can be made from the traditional
combinations of roof forms with
what is below them, without invit-
ing criticism of the result.
The general type of roof having
settled itself, the next question is,
with what materials shall the roof
surfaces be covered' Here the ar
chitcct must satisfy two importah'
considerations and texture.
1t is through a proper combination
of colors, or colors and texture, that
the room can be made to partakc o.
the spirit and character of the
house, and of the surroundings.
It is through the skiilful use OF
color and texture that the roof sur
faces are given life, interest ana
substance. Sharply contrasting cor,
ors in a roof may be mellowed and
blended by overlapping them win
the lacework of lights and shadows
from the surfaces aud edges of shin
giles or tile shaped units of apprccl,,
able thickness. More color ana
greater variety of colors can be used
more safely in a heavily teXtureu
surface than in a smooth one, on
the other hand. the same quality or
life and interest can be impaired 10
a relatively smooth surface by prop
er, tasteful blending of colors' a
roof which lacks both color and TEX
ture is devoid of interest, and may
easily rob the house of amy charm 1t
might otherwise possess.
The question of color and texture
being disposed of, the next import
ant considerations arc duraoility
and resistance to fire. Especiaiiy
in suburban communities the tH'

GOOD HEALTH IS
DEPENDENT UPON
PLENTY OF WATER

Pure, cold, refreshing water!
Only those who have been forced to
go without water, even for dav,
can fully appreciate how vitally cs-
sential is this greatest Of Natures
gifts. For water is even more neccs-
sary to life than food. The human
body may live as long as six weeks
without food, but il con not live
much longer than a. week without
water.
The reason for this is clear. Over
two thirds of the body is water. All
the chemical and physical changes
which take place in the body de-
pend on water for their action. The
blood and other vital fluids of the
body are from so percent to 95 per-
cent water Water is required in
carrying on all the processes of elm
ination of waste products from the
body. Water is required for the
digestion of food. The temperature
of the body is regulated by the g
vaporation of water from the sur
face of the skin. Water is life
Medical authorities show that the
average adult should drink from six
to eight glasses of water every dav
in order to maintain the fluid bal
ancc of the body. In certain oc-
cupations, where men are engaged
in hard labor or exposed to high
temperatures, larger amounts are re-
quired.
Few people drink enough water
either because of the taste or fear
of impurities, because it is not con
vcnient or because it is too warm
or too cold to be palatablc. The
body is denied a sufficient supply
of water and this results in faulty
