NEW TYPE OF
REFRIGERATOR
EMPLOYS ICE
Fans Control Temperature
of Product Sold by
Polar Company.

A new line of commercial ice re-
frigerators especially adapted for
groceries, delicatessens and meat
markets has been added by the
Polar Ice and Fuel Company.
This line of White Seal refrigera-
tors is built by the Tennessee Furni-
ture Company and is said to be
constructed to meet modern sani-
tary demands.
The refrigerators may be used eX-
clusively for groceries, fresh vege-
tables or fruits, as they have sepa-
rate compartments. The finish is
white lacquer and the hardware is
shiny. ruStless chromium plated.
Cork Board Used
They are insulated with Arm
strong's cord board. The refrigera-
ton is Enthusiastically controlled
with forced draft circulation of air
by means of two small automatic
fans inclosed in the top and driven
by attaching to an electric socket.
These fans prevent the temperature
from rising above 40 degrees.
Four features of the refrigerator
are:
Does not dry out foods. Cools all
foods within the cabinet. Carries
odors, gases and bacteria from the
food and eXpels them through the
drain. All tests prove it to be supe-
rior in evenly distributed GOODNESS.
Ice Cubes Made Quickly
Other novelties in stock are bot
tie coolers for the social room in a
mahogany finished cabinet; a
Coolerator ice cuber, commercial
coolers, draft beer equipment, meat
cases and fresh fish cases.
The ice cuber will provide cubes
in five minutes. This is accomp-
lished by filling the Coolerator with
hot water and placing it in the ice
box, a simple and easy process.
Ice sales this year for June show
a marked increase over the same
period last year. The company in
vites visitors to the showroom.

Already the new buildings dras-

efficacy of the new design.
While some of the claims made
for the advantages that will accrue
from it are yet to be proved, it was
pointed out that L. S. James, the
company's national director of dis
play who first suggested a store
without windows; the architects,
Nimmons, Carr & Wright, and L. B.
De Witt, head of construction for
Sears, declare the design is func-

as some of the benefits that will re-

Simplif1ed application and opera

stored merchandise losses caused by
seepage of smoke, dirt and CRIME

and noises; lower operating costs
for heating and cooling equipment;
uniform lighting; greater power and

Heat Affected by Paint

Heat radiation from basement
pipes can be controlled by the use
of paint. If it is desirable to re-
duce the amount Of heat expended
the pipes should be painted with a
glossy paint. If it is desirable to in
crease the amount of heat expend-
ed, fiat paint in some light tint
should be used.

ALTERATION COSTS
LEAD IN OCTOBER
Gain of AZ Per Cent Shown
Over Same Period
Last Year.

Additions, alterations and repairs to
all kinds of property showed gain of
AZ per cent in dollar volume during
October as compared with the same
month last year, it was announced by
the Federal Housing Administration.
The figures are based on building
permits issued in 498 leading cities of
| the United States and reported to the
Bureau of Labor Statistics of the
Department of Labor.
In these cities the total Of permits
for all types of modernization work
issued in October this year amounted
to Sl0.522 $40, compared with $7,439,-
ITO last october. The gain in new con-
Struction over the same period and in
the same cities was l3 per cent
New York City led all other popula-
ton centers of the country in the VOL
ume of modernization work, the total
being s6.161 ,236, compared with So
014,412, a gain of 104 per cent Los
Angeles modernization activities
jumped from $377,775 in October, 1898.
to S879,579 for the same month this
year. an increase of 1872 per cent.
One of the most interesting features
of the report was the volume of install
lation, which also are financed by
modernization loans, in cities which
report this activity. Cincinnati, Ohio
for example, reported only S116.02 in
alterations and repairs, and s201 010 in
installations. Columbus, Ohio, showed
s24,400 in alterations and repairs and
S93 ,090 in installations. In Stamford.
Conn, alterations and repairs
amounted to $18.105, while installa-
tions were made at the rate of S18,2O5.

$43.000,000 in public utilities, and
$l2,000.000 in residential buildings.

The first persons that used this idea
possibly didn't realize that the low
moisture content In extremely cold
air Is made relatively lower when the
air is heated, but they did know that
the air was parched and dry and
needed moisture. and therefore re-
sorted to that simple expedient.
The use Of refrigerating machinery
to actually cool and dehumidify air
is comparatively recent application
of old established principles, but at
the present time it constitutes the
heart Of modern air conditioning
plant. 1t is obvious chat while We
are apt to take more or less for grant,
ed. the man-made climate that we
encounter when we are enjoying a
cool movie or good dinner in an

many years of experimentation and
evolution to obtain those results.

Special Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK, November 17.-Chil-
dren's play rooms and nurseries are
being arranged this season with more
consideration for what the Young
sters themselves like. Model nurseries
in large New York department stores
and the smaller shops which special
ize in children's furnishings demon
strate that at last the professional
decorator is endeavoring to see the
nursery through the eyes of the little
ones who will live and play in it.
Many of the childrens rooms seen
lately in private homes show the
same trend.
Like their clothing children's rooms
and furnishings are being kept SIM
Pile. smart and durable. Plain
painted walls form an excellent back
ground for the bright toys, gay little
chairs, tables and beds which they
surround. One nursery has an in
genious arrangement-a sheet of
painted wall board fastened to the
wall with frame of narrow molding,
lacquered bright red. This serves as
a bulletin board. on which favorite
pictures from magazines can be
thumb-tacked.
MuraIs Plain or Elaborate.
Mural decorations, ranging from
very simple effects to elaborate Mother
Goose characters, seem to be very
much the thing for nurseries. Any
one with little artistic ability. COM
bined with a knowledge of how to
handle paint brush, can do wonders.
There is the two-toned effect, for
example The lower part of the
rcom-all the way around and up as
far as feet-is painted shade or
so darker than the upper part. This
makes the room seem lower. so that
small beds, tables and chairs fit into
it better. The line of division is
easily marked by Tipping a string,
which has been chalked or dipped
into ashes, across the wall.
Another device which makes a room
seem lower is to paint the ceiling
color down the wall for feet.
Much can be done with ceilings in
nurseries; one ambitious parent paint
ed the ceiling of his youngsters room
to suggest the billowy canvas of cir
Gus tent, with the hanging edges of
the canvas" extending down onto the
wall. Gold stars in blue sky is an
other interesting effect.
Linoleum floors and found to be very
satisfactory Sometimes they have

example. with the points accurately
indicated Painted floors are colorful.
attractive and easily cleaned. The
old-fashioned spatter floors. with
hooked rugs, are simple and practical
for nursery use.
Furniture Is Sturdy.
Small furniture is very much better
than it used to be. Chairs, for ex-
ample, are sturdily built. with broad

WINDOWS THIEF-PROOF
Devices Permit Ventilation, but
Keep Out Burglars.

Open windows and unlatched doors
invite housebreakings. robbeyies, and
sometimes assault. At the same time,
if all windows and doors are closed
and locked. those in the dwelling are
deprived of necessary ventilation and
fresh air
There are several kinds of small,
attractive. burglar-proof devices that
can be attached to the window and
frame. They can be turned so that a
window may be opened wide, raised
or lowered from the top, permitting
an opening small enough to prevent
entrance by burglar but yet pro-
vide ventila ton

vestors can be educated to the point
of taking a per cent return on their
investment, as prescribed by the
Housing Administration rules for
mortgage insurance, the home pur-
chasers worries will be considerably
lessened. That there will be large
amount of this per cent money IS
held almost certain. One veteran real
estate man pointed out that years ago
there was quantity OF 3 per cent
money in the Capital for building.
The loans of that type naturally we're
regarded as safe as any form of in
vestment could be.
The other agencies of the Home
Loan Bank Board, coupled with the
efforts of the F. H. A, are expected
to carry on where H. o. L. c. is leav-
ing off. They are expected to assist
in the building revival that has been
forecast for the Capital. 1t is be-
lleved this revival is certain to come
within the next year, quickened by
the unprecedented shortage OF resi-

OF activity made l,419 loans to dis
tressed Washington home owners, for
a total of $8,327,270. In view of the
fact that Census Bureau figures re-
veal that there are more than $4,000
owned homes in the city, the per-
centage of distress here would seem to
be much less than in other sections of
the country.
Highest Average Here.
The average loan made by H. o. l..
C. here's, ,868-was the highest
average in the country. New York
was in second place. This, accord
ing to the local real estate man, re-
teals that property generally is valued
higher here than elsewhere, and that
Washington real estate has shown less
shrinkage in valuation during the de-
preston than property in any of the
other localities.
Figures show that District home
owners made 4.182 applications for
loans. Of this number "a were with
drawn, AL rejected before appraisal
There are 1852 applications from
Washington that have not been acted
upon finally. OF these 810 are held
up after preliminary appraisal, 757
after corporate appraisal, As because
of faulty title, while 10 are ready at
the present time for closure.

for a total of S84O45,477 have been
