No Place Like Home for
 Worlds WeaIthiest Girl

SOMERVILLE, N J., May B. Be 1t ever so palatial there's n place like home to Mrs. James H R. Cromwell, the former Dori Duke, who inherited the vast to oacco fortune of her father, tht late James B. Duke, and came to bt known as the worlds richest girl
 She may roam the earth, as sht did after her marriage, tasting the fruits of wealth in foreign lands, but she always comes back. to Somer- vile.
 Here she enjoys a 30-room house on a 2,300-acre estate with its for tX two miles of improved roads its woodland glenS where bronze satyrs and Greek athletes ogle bronze dryads, and a multitude of bass and trout, fearless of capture frisk in the eight lakes and the winding streams.
 ERlGrgi'lg tue Residence
 Across the deep woods and roll ing greensward the big bell in the tower of the house boomS the hours, and now there is the sound of work mems hammers and song, for they are again enlarging the building. When the weather gets warmer the regular force of gardeners, farmers, woodsmen and others who keep the estate in order, will be increased to 150.
 Mrs. Cromwell was born on the estate, lived here most of her life, and has spent many weck-ends here since her marriage and hon eymoon. She has eleven servants, who occupy third floor quarters.
 The big rustic stone stable is now the garage-looks like an au- tomobile show room, and its floor is covered with mating.
 Improvements of recent years in clude a swimming pool, 60 by 120 feet with underwater lighting eff fleets; an indoor tennis court, and lounging room where movies are shown, ,.,,+..
 M Police On Gldrd
 Two motorcycle policemen patrol the roads of the estate. Guards arc always on duty at the entrances and the grounds are strictly pri- vate.
 The miles and miles Of rustic stone fences cost James B. Dukc $5. a cubic yard. There are marblc statues in the house and othel buildings; there are many fountain on the estate
