The judge used part of 1t to build a
rustic seat at the far west end Of
the garden. Here he had q pool

HOME FINANCING
GUIDE EXPOUNDED
Home Loan Bank Board
Counsel Gives Rules for
Sound Procedure.

A short-term monthly amortized
loan on a fragile home property, a
medium termed loan on the average
residence and a long-term loan on
permanent, substantial and well-lo-
Gated property.
This guide to suitable and sound
home financing in the years ahead
is set forth by Horace Russell, gen.
eral counsel for the Federal Home
Loan Bank Board, in an article in
the May issue of Savings and Loans
journal, off the press this week.
1T is absurd to make a l2-year loan
on a nine-year house and 1t is almost
equally absurd to insist upon a 12-
year loan upon 100-year house,
states Mr.. Russell. This plan OF
mortgage lending will permit the ad-
vertising Of an attractive loan plan
and will at the same time encourage
the building of good houses"
The article treats of Common
Sense Mortgage Lending" and be-
sides the suitable loan plan empha-
sizes the technique of appraisals for
home buying in the current period.
"A healthy condition cannot exist
II appraisal is to be on forced-sale
basis" he continues. THE scarcity
of houses at present justifies giving
substantial weight to replacement
value of homes. No one could justify
appraisals today on level equivalent
to that of 1928. but, on the other
hand, no one can justify appraisals
today on basis of so per cent OF re-
production COST"
Other articles featured in the May
journal touch upon some of the most
significant matters in home financing
today, including the projected ma
tional educational campaign of the
savings, building and loan business,
which is written of by Fermor S. Can
non, Indianapolis, chairman OF the
National Publicity Committee; the
problem of making sure taxes on mort
gagged properties are paid, for which a
practical solution is presented by G. l.
Thomas of Topeka, and the variable
interest rate proposition for home
borrowers. depending upon their
character risk, the type of property
and percentage of loan to value, ex-
planned here by R. D. Walton, Hous-
ton, Tex.
The investment side of the build
ing and loan business is treated in
the articles by G. Vanderende, Berke-
ley, Calf, on Baby Bonds" and that

SMALL GARDEN
PROBLEM SOLVED
Residents of Chevy Chase

BY HELEN FETTER COOK.

1t is more difficult to have a small
garden that is really unusual than
a large one. The true garden en-
thusiast loves SO many kinds of flow
ers and 1t Is very easy to have
limited space seem cluttered-up.
One small garden where the prob
lem has been solved excellently is
the one belonging to Judge and Mrs.
John w. Norwood, who live at 4509
Elm street, Chevy Chase, Md.
The garden seeker finds real sur
prise when he follows the tagged walk
around behind where the garage
covered with a rose vine-mimics the
tidy whiteness of the house. Reach
ing a group of graceful trees, the
visitor hears the persistent chuckle Of
a busy creek which flows through the
heart of the Norwood garden.

bought this home, about Is months

Urges Painting of Homes.

In response to the Federal Govern
ment's appeal for modernization Of
homes, George w. Alder, consulting
engineer of Good Housekeeping, heads
his list of practical suggestions with:
Keep the house painted to lessen de-
probation. Do not wait too long to
protect surfaces exposed to the

Hints on Painting.

Don't thin paint or clean brushes
near gas flame. Don't use inferior
brushes that leave a trail of bristles
in their wake. Don't use a new
brush on the finishing coat. Break it
in on the printing coat. Don't forget
that varnish and enamel brushes
should be cleaned with turpentine
and shellac brushes should be cleaned
with denatured alcohol.

PARIS STYLES

 Paris. (UP)-That expert tailor, Henry Creed, can make suits with a smartness and smoothness of line that cannot be equalled by any other Paris couturier. Since 1885 promises to be another suit year, l have chosen three of his suits which would complement any wardrobe.
 For sports, there is the grey-blue tweed with a straight skirt whose side seams are split beneath a plaque to give freedom to the legs. The tailored, fitted. jacket has shoulder pads of brown chamois, (excellent for shooting trips) and is trimmed with round brown leather buttons. It has wide hip pockets whose flaps also are secured by leather buttons. This is worn with a brown channels blouse which but tons down the front.
 For town, Creed shows a green woolen two-piece suit with fitted jacket trimmed with reveres and collar of black astrakhan. The cuffs are of astrakhan as are the twin rows of buttons which trim the jacket front. A black felt huff, trimmed with astrakhan, and a green felt hat from Rose Vallois are worn with the suit.
 For dressier occasions, the same tailor shows a black velvet suit with longer, fitted jacket which is worn beltless to the hips. The tiny reveres are bound with black silk braid which continues down the front opening which is fastened with three small velvet covered but tons. The cuffs are edged with braid and the suit is worn with black and white striped velvet waistcoat.

As long as tomatoes are plenti- full they answer the salad question in my family and when they get scarce, this year, I have 6 brand new bunch of ideas. Did you ever realize what could be done with pears, for instance, both fresh and canned? And with nuts? Take this for one example:
 Two ripe pears, 2 tart red ap- ples, teaspoons minced candied ginger, 4 tablespoons diced celery, 2 tablespoons chopped walnut meats, cups shredded new cab bage, l tablespoon blanched and shredded almonds, 2 tablespoons shredded green pepper, 1-2 cup seeded Tokay grapes.
 Serve in Nests of Cabage
 Pare and dice pears. Dice ap- pies without pairing. Mix pears, ap- pies, ginger, celery and walnut meats. Mix with French dressing and let stand on ice for thirty minutes. Shred cabbage very fine and let stand in cold water for ten minutes. Drain and mix with almonds and pepper and enough mayonnaise to make moist. Make nests of cabbage on individual salad plates. Fill each nest with fruit mixture and garnish with seeded grapes.
 A nice way to serve mayonnaise is to put it in halves of fresh fruit instead of masking individual sal- ads with it. Or fill the cavities of pears or peaches or apples with cream cheese beaten with cream until light and fluffy.
 A fruit salad so often does dou- ble duty, answering for both salad and dessert that it should furnish enough foods value to adequately take care of the two courses. KeeP this in mind when you serve des- sert salads and increase the calo- ries with whipped cream in the dressing or cream cheese in the salad.
 Imperial Fear Salad
 One package lemon or lime-fia- vored gelatin, 1 cup warm water, cup pear juice, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, IA teaspoon salt, Ia teaspoon ginger or 2 tablespoons minced preserved ginger, six Bart lett pears, 1 package Philadelphia cream cheese, tablespoons whip ping cream.

AS far as beauty routines are con- cerned, habit is the important thing, A good cream, used night after night, month after month, will do your skin more good than several kinds, applied only now and then. No cream can do the work it's sup posed to do during one application. Or ten, for that matter. It is regu- larity that counts.
 Speaking of habit, intelligent loy- alty to preparations that have serv- ed you well is an excellent idea. The woman who buys a jar or bottle of every new cosmetic that pops up on the market not only is being ex- travagrant, but the chances are she'll never get much good out of anything.
 Her dressing table always will be cluttered with various half-empty containers she seldom touches but hates to throw away because they were expensive. Furthermore, she'll never be satisfied with her beauty treatments.
 When you have found lipstick that is the right color and which will stay on your lips for hours and hours, why discard it the mirl- ute you catch sight of new vari- ety in 8 different looking case? Of course, if the new type is more satisfactory, this is good idea. If 1t isn't better, change is silly.
 Remember, too, thSt it is better to have one really good cream than three or four mediocre, ineffective ones. If you are one-cream girl, pick an all purpose cream which you believe will cleanse and nour- ish your skin and keep the pores small as well. Use 1t before you go to bed every night of your life. no matter where you are or how tired you are.
 Get rouge that blends easily and learn where to apply 1t. Then smooth 1t on the same way on the same spots day after day. It should match your natural skin tones. of course, not your dress. bag, shoes or whatever.

NH YOUR CHILDREN
Mana, can't I go alongP"
e Oes Robssts esssoa ;
K-.. ll-s.z ME

Mama, can't I go along?"
 "well-if you want to. But you won't have good time, Mary. I'm going to get a dress and hat for myself. You1l get very tired"
 "No, I won't get tired. I don't want to stay here"
 So Mary went along, or rather mother went along with Mary. For you see, when they got downtown to. the big store, Mary saw things she wanted. A smart plaid coat and cap caught her eye first. It was on the figure of a child about her age.
 T need "a new coat, mother. Can't just try it on?"
 Mother hesitated. why, she thought, hadn't she taken the other elevator that did not lead through the children's department?
 T guess you don't need new coat as much as I need a dress, dear. Your blue is still very nice"
 The clerk approached. Isn't that lovely coat2 The cap goes with it.. It's a special today and only $7.c5 for both. Why don't you let her try it on? This little bit of red goes so well with dark hair"
 Giving Up The Clothes
 Mother had to confess that Mary looked extremely well-turned-out Silently she did some rapid figur- ing. If she did without hat and bag it would just about make it. She could get 8 brown dress to go with her old brown felt instead of the complete new green outfit she had planned.
 She sighed, T never saw her look so nice. I tlMnk-I guess-yes, we'll take it."
 Mary danced with joy. Cant I wear it homer"
 "Well-an right. Send the old one, please"
 of to the ladies dresses, then. She tried on several. There was a brown that suiI,d her nicely, but it was too high-priced. T think I'll wait until Saturday" she said, when your cheaper ones come in."
 On the way out they went through the children's department again. A little girl was trying on a smart jersey dress. Mother, look," cried Mary, that's Sally Smith. I wish I had dress like that"
 Well -"
 Isn't that cute!" smiled another clerk. Were almost giving those dresses away today. They come in all shades, too."
 So Mother Got Nothing They were bargain as it hap pened, so Mary got two. And be- fore she left the store she also had new shoes and socks. Because her mother decided that while she was doing it she might as well stock her right. The brown dress could wait a month and children had to look nice. Her old black would do well enough for Mrs. Smiths tea. What we are wondering is about that dress and hat next month. WEI mother get them or will Mary convince her by that time that she needs a fur piece, or something? And as the years go on, will Miss Mary always look like 8 million dollars beside her shabby mother? And isn't it possible, too, that she may learn to think it selfish and heartless if she does not get every thing first?
 :. think mother should have marched off alone, bought the green outfit she had worked and longed for. But mothers aren't made that way, are they?

WHEN A GIRL MARRIES.

WHEN A GIRL MARRIES.
 A young woman, teacher, with a god position, has been more particu- lar than almost any girl know about her friends, never foolish a. bout love affairs, has a nice home and fine family. She has fallen in love with a Hindu and seriously considers marrying him and going to India to live, as he cannot be- come a citizen here. Her family is frantic. Are there any arguments on heredity or the physical side that one might use in trying to per- suade her against taking this step?
 (Mrs. M. R)
 If you had a son who was in love with a girl who has negro blood in her veins, what would you do? The boy is nineteen, the girl two years his junior. They have been sweethearts for five years, in a childlike way at first, but they seem to be getting serous now. The girls father was for several years principal of ...... school and gave splendid satisfaction in an entirely white community. Once or twice there were whisperings that he was uart negro, but this was said to be just gossip. Lately, however, we learned that the family has negro blood almost beyond a doubt .. The girl herself is splendid, highly in- telligent young woman and looks rather like a beautiful Dumanian. and if I am any judge she would make this young man a splendid wife. He has just finished his freshman year at ,..... University. (Mrs. I. O.
 The data given would not in- huence my view of either marriage,
 For the assurance of Mrs. I. c. and others who harbor fictitious notions about heredity, it may be well well to repeat that throw back" or ,reversion to type" never happens in the human race. That Is, a black child is never born of parents, one of whom happens to have small admixture of negro blood. The offspring of such parents will be no darker than the darker parent.
 More important than the question of color is the question of physi- cal fitness for marriage. Forget the mingling of blood and consider rather whether the persons con- .templating marriage can pass a medical examination which shows freedom from communicable or transmissable disease and freedom from physical deficiency which would invalidate marriage.
 The first talk I had in this col- umn, before many present readers were born, was a plea to parents to demand a health certificate and a plea to young men to obtain one voluntarily and submit it to the parents or guardians of the young woman before engagement is con- tracted. Then and many times since I have been roundly scored for not insisting that the prospec- tive bride should furnish a similar health certificate. Frankly waver a bit about that these days, but I still think the onus is on the male of the species. AS I see it every man owes such health assur- ance to the woman he would marry and any right minded woman, fol the sake of her home and her fam lily, should wish to ascertain wheth- CT any heritable or physical in-

1. According to an analysis made by Science News Letter, in 1900 there were 100000 people in the United States 65 or older, which was then 4 per cent of the popu- lation. Now there are 7,50O.O00 or S.4 per cent. They calculate that in 1870 this proportion of old peo- ple will reach 10 per cent. This is partly because at the other end or the span of life. fewer children are being born; the consequence will be that during the next one or two generations there will be fewer and fewer young people to earn the pensions for taking care of the old people-a very serious economic problem but one we must prepare to solve.
