Improvements.
Monday, Mr.. Jennings celebrates
his 35th anniversary in Washing.
ton as a builder, and, with this
reputation behind him, he is
ready to take care of the wants
of owners of deteriorating homes.
If the owner is unable to finance
his improvements through his own
bank, Mr.. Jennings is prepared to
use his own financial connections
to aid the modernizer. Moreover
Mr.. Jennings is prepared to give
expert advice to prospective bor-
rowerS.
Not only is Mr.. Jennings pre-.
pared to aid in financing home
improvements, but he is equally
ready to aid in new home financ-
ing. So the person who lacks
banking connections for his home
financing may find in Mr.. Jen.
nlngS an angel to combat distress
In his 35 years as builder here,
Mr.. Jennings has operated in vir.
tually every block in the city.
One example of his work is in the
home of Representative Murphy
in Rock Creek Park. Another is
the John E. Donnelly home at
1910 Plymouth st. N. W.. follow,
ing closely the Colonial traditions
of the famous mansion at Gun.
ston Hall.
Authenticity is added to this
structure in the material itself
From the length and breadth of
the country came the bricks used
in the construction, and George
Washington had not been born
when the bricks were made.
The w. C. and A. N. Miller
Times Model Home" at 4939
Quebec st. N. W. in Spring Valley,
has been sold, it was announced
yesterday.
For a few days, however, the
property will remain on exhibi-
ton for the covetous ones to
view.
This is the tenth anniversary
of the Cooley firm as local build
ers, and they have celebrated by
building a nifty string of brick
houses in the 100 block of Madi-
son st. N. w.
All brick, with five and six
rooms, these homes offer individ-
uality seldom found in row houses
and the prices and terms are
suited to reduced incomes.

will add much to- the enjoyment
of the porch, on dark evenings.
Stepping into the living room
from the porch. one is impressed
with its size and unusual window
space, achieved without Sacrific
ing adequate wallspace for fur
niture arrangement. Furniture
copies from English and Colonial
antiques by Potthast Brothers, is
beautifully executed and taste
fully arranged. The fireplace
with its colonial mantel and slate
hearth, gives promise of many
CHEEKY winter evenings.
The dining room is both light
and spacious, and gracefully sets
off the ebony-inlaid mahogany
suite. The kitchen, which ad'
joins it directly. features an un
usual amount of closet storage
space and every modern con
venience, including gas stove, ven,
tilating fan, Electrolux retrlg,
orator, oversize sink, and special
outlets for electrical appliances.
Three bedrooms on the second
floor are as notable for their dec
orative scheme as for their care
fully planned arrangement. Long
graceful drapes by the Wesley
Heights Shop and lamps, spreads,
and pictures by the Brown Tea
Pot, Jean Nation and Newhott
galleries all help to give the rooms
a home-like atmosphere.
Shower AlcOves in Baths
The two baths, one. opening
directly from the master bedroom,
are done in pastel shades of green
with a glass tile in the tub and
shower alcoves
The attic, intended for storage,
is fully insulated and is reached
by disappearing stairs.
Servants quarters have re-
ceived more than usual attention
in this Miller-built home. The
maids room in the basement has
a window facing down into the
garden. The closet can only be
described as huge and the bath is
complete in every respect. Also IN
the basement are the two-car
garage and Bryant Gas Heater.
The house is open for inspection
daily from % a. m. to 9 p. m. both
house and garden being illuminat-
ed at night.

EXPERT OFFERS
s HOME AIDS

For homeoWners who intend to
respond to the Federal Govern
ments appeal to modernize their
houses here are six practical sug-
gestions, offered by George w.
Alder, consulting engineer of
Good Housekeeping.
Keep the house painted to les
sen depreciation. Do not wait
too long to protect surfaces eX-
posed to the weather. 1t is Won
derful what paint and wall paper
can do to help house keep its
self-respect.
Improve your lighting equip
ment to conserve your eyesight
and make visual tasks easier as
well as minimize hazards in the
dark. Be sure to have ample
lighting in the kitchen and
laundry. Just one new lighting
fixture properly placed may solve
your problem effectively.
Have outlets where you need
them for the connection of lamps
and appliances. These can be
installed cheaply. Correct the
inadequacy of your present wir-
ing and do away with unSightly
makeshifts that may be danger
Gus.
Treat yourself to a new sink.
This may be just the one thing
needed to spruce up the whole
kitchen. Or if you have an old
fashioned low sink have the
plumber raise it to a convenient
height (36 to 38 inches, rim to
floor. 1t pays to keep the plumb
ing in repair.
Modernize the heating system.
This will add greatly to comfort
and improve living conditions
from the health standpoint as
we'll
Insulate the house. This will
save fuel and give more uniform
heating in winter, as we'll as keep
the house cooler in summer.
There are many ways to insu!ate
existing houses so that the ad-
vantages of insulation need not
be limited to new buildings.
Change the cluttered basement
into a recreation room.
The Washington times., 1934-08-25

NEW YORK, Aug. .25.-New
York contractors are developing
new science of building as
they undertake remodeling pro-
jects under the Presidents hous-
ing program. Air conditioning,
accoustical materials that deaden
sound, wall colors that make the
most of every ray of light that
enters-all these important fac
tors are being seriously considered
in the planning of new construc-
ton and in remodeling work.
Painting, which used to be
considered worthy only of casual
consideration when the rest of
the construction work was fin
ished, has now become an in
tegral part of the job and ranks
Importantly in the planning Of
the construction project.
Paint Important
In the matter of installing ac-
coustical materials, for instance,
Manhattan contract tors have
learned that it is of prime i'm
portance to select the proper sur
face coating. To seal the pores
of the material is to destroy it's
allimportant absorptive properties.
Consequently, it is necessary that
the type of paint and the methods
of painting used be such that
these porous surfaces remain
open.
All renovizing or modernization
operations call for the latest in
equipment-and the Importance
of sound control in apartments,
hotels, offices and factories is
closely followed by that of light.
New York building owners are
learning that no lighting system
can attain its full potentialities
unless a planned painting job
is done in connection with it.
Lessons Eye Strain
Increased intensities, light diff.
fusion, light reflection, elimina-
ton of shadows and of glare,
lessening of eye strain, improve
ment of health-all these, they're
discovering are the achievements
of the planned use of paint and
color.

ments are being brought up to

sary of Cooley Brothers entering
the home building industry in
washington as builders of better
homes they are announcing the
opening of their anniversary
homes in the Fort Slocum Park
section. They will put in display
two beautiful detached homes in
the 100 block of Madison Street
N. w. a new center hall plan cor
ner semi-detached home and a
beautifully furnished model at
tached home. These homes all
bear the sterling stamp of Cooley
Better-Built Homes" the result
of ten years experience in Wash
ington.
The model home contains all
the latest ideas of labor saving de-
vices and appurtenanceS; also in
home planning and home turnish-
ing with many new advanced tea-
lures such as beautiful washable
wall paper, large down STAIRS
guest wrap closet, mirror doors,
solarium. a model kitchen in Strlk-

room, cedar lined closets, an ettl-
cient gas heating plant, tnree
bright bed rooms, a delightful
bath in deft shades OF tlllng,
first floor lavatory and many
other features not found in homes
in this class.
The home has been attractively
and completely furnished by P. j.
Nee. It will pay also to inspect
the two detached homes with six
rooms, two baths and many un-
usual features and the new Colo
nial center hall plan semidetached
home, with six big rooms, two
baths and two fireplaces and
other features that are on large
corner lot.
These homes are all-brick,

of the city's finest Northwest
parks.

struction in this location during
the past few years, assuring an
outstanding value and location in
each and every one of these ami
versary homes. They are open

And as for the painting angle,
owners and managers are realiz-
ing that shortterm touch-up jobs,
stop-gap repair work and paint
ing merely to preserve property
valuations must now give way to
carefully conceived and executed
decorative jobs that will enhance
valuations, retain existing ten

COOLEY BROTHERS OPEN TENTH ANNIVERSARY HOMES
POOL IN GARDEN
MODEL HOME
FEATURE

Garden lovers have been among
the most enthusiastic visitors to
The Times Model Home at 4939
Quebec St., Spring Valley, pre-,
sented during August by the
builders, w. C. & A N. Miller.
And so they should, for more
than the usual amount of atten-
ton has been paid to landscap-
ing. James Heaton. of the Miller
organization, designed and super
vised the execution of the entire
plan. The beauty of both home
and garden reflect this careful
attention to detail.
Pool Under Shady Tree
The outstanding attraction is
the pool, which features the ter
raced rear garden. A deep con-
crete basin, trimmed with rubble
stone and slate, is set below a
beautiful shade trees in the grassy
slope. A deep bank of fern com
pletely surrounds the pool and
adds a deeper shade of green to
those which create the feeling of
reStful tranquility which domi-
mates this quiet corner.
"A constant supply of fresh
water bubbles in over random
rubble stones and falls into the
pool in a miniature cataract.
Overflow is carried off through
a hidden outlet and drains off
into the valley below.
A kaleidoscope pattern in
shades of red and yellow is pre-
sented by the brilliant and con-
stantly moving goldfish. Their
sudden and unexpected appear
ance from behind rocks or among
marine plants is an unending
source of pleasure.
Starting from the porch steps,
a flagStone walk leads across the
lawn and down the terrace to en-
circle the pool. But even this does
not exhaust the possibilities. Care
full thought and wise planning pro-
videS still another feature to en-
hance the INABILITY of this sylvan
retreat.
Great Living Porch
To most three-bedroom houses
a porch is an afterthought tackled
on where it will least offend
beauty, and is usually inadequate
for living purposes. But to w. C..
& A. N. Miller. porch is an in
tegral part of both the harmoni-
Gus design and the living scheme.
Here is such a porch. 1t is 20
feet square, with solid concrete
floor in a neatly blocked pattern.
A wrought-iron hand rail COM
pletely surrounds it. open only
where the steps lead to the garden
below.
The screened sleeping porch,
which opens from the master bed
room above, acts as a roof over
half the porch, the balance being
open terrace. Gibson Island chairs
painted white provide for both
comfort and relaxation and Italian
tile top tables from the Brown
Tea Pot afford a welcome note of
color.
A minor detail, perhaps, but
one that will be appreciated by
those who enjoy outdoor living,
is the electric outlet near the
door from the living room. Set
deep into the wall and provided
with a waterproof cap, there is
no danger of short circuit even
in the heaviest storm. And the
cheer of a floor or table lamp
