Home Owners Protected

Charles 81. Cheney of Los Angeles,
chairman Of the committee on city
and regional planning of the Ameri-
can Institute Of Architects, says:
Property values are destroyed. cher
ished homes abandoned and neighbor-
hoods ruined by the erection Of one
or more ugly or appropriately de-
signed buildings. More than $1,000
100000 was put into such buildings
last year. Every vacant lot in an un-
protected neighborhood today carries
a threat of ruin to its neighbors.
''This is the greatest economic loss
of our time, and one that can and will
be remedied as soon as investors,
home owners and the public generally
learn how to protect themselves. More
than 500 cities have established zon-
ing in the last ten years.
Architectural control of this kind
Is not new. Santa Barbara, Calf, in
1925 to 1926. required that all plans
for private buildings be passed on by
a competent architectural board Of re-

For so years high-class real estate

careful architectural control, with
marked success and increasing prop

Varieties of Hedges

There is no limit to the beauty pos
sibilities of hedge planting. The
hedge may be trained to have all sorts
of variations. It may be buttressed
at the ends. it may be trained to offer
varying outline on top with some parts
higher than others. The top may be
on square or curved lines. The hedge
may even be trained over an opening
in the hedge to form an arch. In fact,
hedges are almost indispensable In
the intensively developed landscape
scheme.
well-kept hedge is so ornamental
that it will pay every home owner to
consider its use in his planting

They met Madame Pastan0 and her
tall, silent, handsome husband, whose
expressive eyes glanced at once into
Ernestine's with penetrating look.
Will went into the coach with them,
kissed them all goodby, and went away.
The children waved to him from the
windows, but he did not look back,
Fastening off through the gate, his
very back eager and relieved.
Ernestine leaned back against the
cushion and closed her eyes against
Madame Pastano's friendly curiosity.
Through everything that had happened

bitterness in her voice.
Will made no answer for moment,
then he said, with more gentleness
than had become his wont, II think
perhaps it'll be a good thing for all Of
us. 1t will give me chance to work
out some ideas here in the house alone,
and it will be a rest and change for
you. Anyhow, kitten, don't you think
you could dispense with little of the
heavy irony? If I want you to stay
in Chicago it's in the hope that you

you to go away, it's to rid myself of

It was not like it had been, that

thought and feeling. For now, she
was poor, but he was not. She was
looking upon the face of poverty that
John Poole had depicted for her years
ago when she was a careless bride.
But Will, either because of longer and
closer acquaintance with Lack, or,
more probably, because of his own
secret happiness, was not dismayed-
was, in fact, unfeeling.
All day long, with the front bed
room door shut, he worked In there on
drawings which he would not let her
see. but which he could not seem to
sell. Their difficulties, her fears for
the future, did not pierce him. He
was intolerably good-natured and
happy. Ernestine was filled with a
deep despair and vexation with him
that he could be so casual.
AS she sat, trying to swallow a
little of the food she had prepared so
carefully, Ernestine saw ahead of her
a long vista of the years in which she
washed and ironed Wills clothes,

CHICAGO (R.-Television hasn't

deniably all its own.
Besides, 1t has frowned on the red
OF the lipstick and the white Of the

Assets OF the young lady so for
tunate as to be one of the first "tele-

the generally accepted ideas of beauty.

Of the invisible broadcast television cir
cult the radio camera miss must have q

Her hpStick must be green. There
must be no siftings of powder on nose
or face, nor the rosy flush of rouge on
her cheeks. Her eyes must not be
shaded
Already television studio pioneers
have found that special treatment must
be applied. The grease paint is of a
type that will best reject light rays,
and outside of the green lips the only
other application is the moderate use
OF mascara on the eyelashes.

OF the things learned by John Chan,
program director of W9XAP, the tele-
vision station owned by WMAQ, the
Chicago Daily News broadcast unit.
AS a particular type for television
Gihan has selected Miss Mildred Potter
Of the Daily News art staff, whose face
seems to register particularly well over
the air. He has found out, too, that
profiles must be avoided, and that the
close-ups must be face to face.
Since going on the air with regular
schedule, W9XAP has broadcast seven
times daily-four periods of sound and
sight" and three periods of television
alone. The sound goes out over WMAC2,
and is included in its regular programs
Arrangement Of television programs
still is largely experimental. Gihan
said that he was ready to try every
thing" Girl boxers, acrobatic dancers,
pantomime, puppet shows. dramatic
sketches, chalk talks and close-ups, in
GLIDING visitors to the station, have
been used.
Singing Parrot Tried.
A singing parrot was tried. The
rapid movements of xlyophonist and
trap drummer made good tests, he
discovered.
Because Of the tie-up with wMAQ
all sound and sight" features have to
be interesting enough, from the stand
point of sound alone, to satisfy the vast
majority of fans who have no television
receivers.
For that reason check-up on recep-

ton indicate reception is good IL miles
away on the north and from 20 to as

That night, when he made up his
report on the inaugural program
Sweetser commented enthusiastically
on Rudys smooth singing and the in
dividual style of the orchestra.
But he added one more line:
'Vallee is the worlds worst announcer"
Judged by all the conventional
standards, he certainly is. But 1t is
probably that slow, melancholy way of
speaking that has done as much to
create his popularity as his singing.
Certainly you couldn't separate them.
BY all the dope, Sweetser was abso-

the public's fancy, and there you are.
