SPANISH


Spanish architecture is employed
to give a sizeable house q design
that is especially popular IN the
south and west.
A lot from so TO 80 feet wide and
100 feet deep Is most suitable to
allow for an appropriate setting.
Colorful appearance is achieved
with a red tile roof combined with
a lower exterior Of cream-colored
stucco. Woodwork trimmings are
IN natural weathered gray.
Designed for climates where
weather allows for outdoor sleep
ing. the house provides for a con-
venient porch for that purpose.
An attraction IN the living room
should be a reading nook adjacent
TO the book alcove planned for one
corner. An arch window allows for
ample light there.
Three bedrooms and two baths
r we'll ventilated.
Landscaping can be arranged to
conform with the style OF the house
itself.
Considering costs Of material and
labor in different sections. IL is es-
timated construction costs would
range between $4,000 and sl1. 900 in
most places. although variations
will depend on exact materials
chosen.

VARIETY IN THE KITCHEN

People who travel about this country
good deal often complain that American
cooking is getting standardized. 1t makes
little difference, they say, whether you
eat in San Francisco or New York Gal
weston or Bangor; the food YOU get will
be Just about the same cooked in much
the same way.
Undeniably the eating habits of all
Americans are quite similar. Neverthe-
less. there are sectional difference, and
the traveller who takes the trouble to In
quire about them and to ask for the local
specialtes can still enjoy a good deal
of variety in his meals.
The United Press recently sent story
from New York, analyzing the various
sectional preferences in the matter OF
food. Some of its conclusions are inter-
esting.
New York, for instance, holds up
corned beef hash as its favorte restaur-
ant dish. Philadelphia clings to its ira
ditional scrapple. Dwellers in the mid
die west do not like things highly sea-
soned. New Orleans, on the other hand,
does. Minnesota people eat great many
many steaks. California goes for salads.
So it goes. One could add other things.
Boston will give you pie for breakfast,
and will implore you to, have goldfish
cakes on Sunday morning. San Diego
will introduce you to hot tamales. Mich
igan and Wisconsin will press Lake Su-
perior whitefish on you. Maryland can
show YOU a thing or two about fried
chicken. Baltimore will give you oys-
ters. Any New England state can prove
the excellency of blueberry pie for the
traveller.
There's fair bit of variety there. 1t
is possible that the uniformity of menus
is more due to the traveller than to the
native sons The m w no goes
about the country ordering n m
and eggs, or hamburger ana on
ions at every place he comes to has no
one but himself to blame. If he'll take
the trouble to find out what the local
favorites are he can vary his diet con-
siderably-and, incidentally, do some
mighty pleasant dining as we'll.

GOOD NEWS FOR BUYERS

In the city of New York there is an
Unusual sort of department store. Its
proprietor, one S. Klein, operates on the
nusual but sensible theory when they
&C in to buy things; and since he did
business of approximately S25,000,OOO
last year it would seem that his theory
is a good one
The current issue Of Forbes Maga-
zine contains an article by Mr. Klein
telling how his store works. 1t is worth
looking at briefly here.
.sMy own conviction, he says, lis that
the thing that sells is value. 1t may
please a merchants vanity or custom
er's vanity to do business In an environ
ment of beauty and luxury; | can see
also that certain kind Of clientele may
kdemand it, but when it comes down to
I brass tacks the average man and woman
mas the good sense to feel that SO tackled
onto a garment to pay for the rugs on
the floors and the pictures on the walls
might better be utilized to buy another
frock or to outfit child for school.
"We have corps Of 1900 employees aug
mented to 1900 or 1900 on Saturdays,
but they enter the picture of selling only
when a customer makes a special request
for them. Our merchandise IS displayed
IN racks which give the price and size III
letters large enough for all to read. A
woman enters and finds her way or Is dl-
.ected to the section she wants. Nobody
badgers her, nobody follows her.
"She examines, she compares values,
she chooses, she buys without the strain

being supervised, of being judged II She
doesn't buy. If she finds something she
wants, good. If not, there are no 1eel-
ings hurt. The vast majority OF pur-
chases 60 through this way.
/. An of this is rather interesting. we
have made such cult of salesmansshlpp
in this country in the last few years that
