ways he ably assists In building the
true nursery The theory that wren
will not return to a nest once touched
is not true. For the wrens, as a fam
lily. have a habit of building several
nests. In the case Of the long-billed
marsh wren. the duplicates seem to
be for the purpose Of protecting the
mother and young.
Singing through the night, espe-
cially on moonlight ones, Is a charm
ing practice Of these birds. Hidden
among the reeds, cattails and sedges,
comes the "Clup-swisss- trr- -tr-r-r."
1t is very difficult to find the marsh
wren during the counting and family
months. The little brown bird may
be watching you with alert eyes, filled
with curiosity. as it hangs among the
stems of the marsh plants. but it
tries to avoid detection. II you come
too close to the true nest the father
bird will do all in his power to lead
you to the mock ones.
There are cousins distributed over the
United States and Southern Canada.
The ones living on the great plains
and the prairies are larger and have
more reddish tinge to their coats.
Their habits are the same and their
nests are built along the traditional
lines, material of the location being
used for building.
Finding these homes after they have
been abandoned will make it easy for
you to know where to find new homes

The long bill is slender and slightly
curved. The wings, while moderate
in length, are very rounded. the
feathers tapering, with rounded tips.
A white stripe runs through the eye.
The iris is brown.
One of the things you will be most
interested in concerning the long
billed marsh wren is the wonderfully
made, coconut-shaped nests. They
are fastened to the upright sedges or
cattails. The outside walls are Of
interviewer reeds. the interior is Of
fine grasses and cattail down. There
is a side entrance and the snug dwell
ing is practically waterproof.
Within are placed five to nine
chocolate brown eggs, well sprinkled
with specks and dots. The little
mother is hidden from the view Of her
sky enemies and those on the ground
floor must be tall enough to reach
the rather high-built nest or creep
up the reed supports.
Besides, 1t takes a clever foe to
know which nest is occupied. For
some unknown reason, the husband
has been so industrious that he has
constructed several nests resembling
the one made by his wife. Nearly al

GOOD PLUMBING
HELD ESSENTIAL
Practices of "Jerry" Build
ers Condemned by Plumb
Ing and Heating Bureau.

There is q vast difference between
the plumbing in cheaply constructed
"jerry-built" house and good quality
plumbing in a house built in accord
ance with sound principles Of design
and workmanship, says the Plumbing
and Heating Industries Bureau.
In a "jerry- built" house the fix
lures are inferior, improperly enam-
eled. inadequate in size, pipes of small
diameter are used or the fittings such
as faucet and drain controls are not
carefully plated.
The system may be improperly de-
signed so that the pipes are incor-
fectly pitched and may become air
bound. Vent pipes for the equalizing
Of air pressures may be omitted, with
the result that obnoxious odors from
the sewer may find free entry to the
house, causing headaches and nausea
to the occupants.
What is even more menacing to the
employed by Jerry builders may un-
knowingly install a cross-connection
between the supply and waste pipes
thus causing pollution of the drink
ing water with sewage.
In fact, the employment of handy
men and jacks of all trades instead of
experienced and licensed journeymen
plumbers working under the direction
Of licensed master plumbers is char
acteristic of the Jerry" builder.
/ Due to the fact that so much of
the plumbing is concealed behind the
walls and under the floors, defects in
the system may not show up until
the walls are plastered and the system
has been put into operation. At this
stage the correction of the defects al
ways proves to be expensive and in
convenient.

SAFER MORTGAGE
IN HIGH FAVOR
F. H. A. Risk-Rating Meth
DDS Give Insured Paper
Wider Market.

The acceptance of the insured mort
gage by lending institutions as stand
ard investment vehicle, brought about
largely through the efforts of the Fed
eral Housing Administration, is one
of the most significant changes oc-
curing in the mortgage market, ac-
cording to Stewart Mcdonald, Fed
ersl housing administrator.
"One of the worst handicaps of the
mortgage as an investment in the
past" he said, has been the fact that
the market for particular mortgage
was restricted to a local area. The in
VeStor In a mortgage always had to
examine and to inspect at frequent in
tervals the property upon which the
mortgage was based, and otherwise
keep an eye on his investment.
Need of Precautions.
These precautions were neceSsitated
by the fact that there was no hallmark
of quality on the mortgage. The in
Vestor in a mortgage, therefore, had
to make a separate investigation Of
every mortgage to determine its inher-
ent quality. Because of the careful
risk rating methods of the Federal
Housing Administration the insurance
contract Endorsed on a mortgage is be-
coming accepted as the mark OF quail
ity The insured mortgage, therefore,
can circulate in general and wide
market.
Just as a bushel of No. red wheat
purchased in New York is the same in
quality as a similar bushel purchased
in Kansas. so the insured mortgage is
becoming an investment whose quality
is standardized and certified to by the
Federal Housing administration.
The results of wider market for
standardized mortgages are difficult to
exaggerate With Nation wide market
it will no longer be possible for a
dearth of mortgage funds to exist In
one section of the country while mort
cages are looking for satisfactory in
'vestments in another part.
Uniform Rate Benefit.
Mortgage money will flow freely
from one section of the country to an
other. Interest rates will become more
uniform. In particular those areas
which have suffered in the past from
high interest rates will benefit from a
uniform rate.
Such standardized mortgages fur
thermore will continue to be acceptable
in the market which heretofore has
tended to freeze in periods of distress.
With the mark of the Federal Housing
Administration on them, they are es-
sentially Government guaranteed obi
cations.
THE wild fluctuation in the guam
tity Of mortgage funds available should
disappear with this acceptance of the
insured mortgage as standardized in
strument."
