The construction Of homes Of mod

experiment.,ly for the past two years,
apparently has gained headway, with
the announcement today by ]. E.
Hines Co. OF Kensington that they
are building such dwellings on scale
larger than previously attempted in
this section.
The Hines company is just complet-
ing four modern homes, all built to
order, and are preparing to break
ground for three more. The houses
are constructed Of concrete. The
design and floor plans are varied.
Costs of concrete houses built by
the company range from $500 up
ward. depending on the size and pre-
tentiousness Of the structure. Hines

recently completed q dwelling for Al
bert Alexander In Falls Church. Va.
which was erected under contract for
$4,000. This house contained two
bed rooms and the customary living
and work quarters.
Another modern house was erected
by the company in Kensington for
F. e. Chase, and q new dwelling has
Just been completed at 1909 Flower
avenue, Silver Spring. for Mrs. Ken
meth K. Archibald. The latter struc-
ture, through consent Of the owner,
will be used for display purposes.
Hines points out that houses Of
the type his company is building offer
unlimited possibilities as far Is variety
of design and floor plan are con-
cerned. All Of the homes he has
built are different. Easements have
been eliminated. with space for heat
ing equipment and work placed above
the ground. This, Mr.. Hines says.
not only decreases considerably the
cost of the house, but furnishes the
architect with more latitude in de-
signing the structure.
The Hines houses are built OF poured
concrete, followed In the center for
air space. This air space serves as
insulation and prevents dampness
from permeating the wall.

Bedtime Stories
The Bob Whites Who Forgot.

no hunter had ventured onto that
farm, for 1t was posted with signs
warning hunters not to hunt there.
Beyond the fence q hunter and his
dog were carefully covering the next
field, in the hope Of finding the Bob
Whites there. At last they approached
the corner where. over the fence. Bob
White and his family were hiding.
Now Of course that Dog knew moth
ing about signs. The fence meant
nothing to him. He could slip under
1t easily. He did slip under 1t and,
working along on Farmer Browns
side, he found the Bob White scent.
Slowly, carefully he followed that
scent until he found those birds hov-
cred together. There, with his nose
almost over them, he stopped and
stood perfectly still. one forefoot lifted
and this and his nose pointing
straight at Bob White and his family
He stood as still as II he were carved
from wood. His master saw and un-
derstood.
"Hah!" exclaimed he. There are
birds in there. wish they were on
this side Of the fence. That sign over
yonder warns against any hunting on
that side Of the fence. I wonder If
there's anybody about" He looked
over toward Farmer Browns house.
No one was visible. He started to
climb the fence. Then he thought
better Of it.
Perhaps" said he to himself. II
can shoot one or two Of those birds
without going on Farmer Browns
land" He worked over close to the
fence. Then he picked up a stone
and tossed it Just in front of his Dog.
1t fell in the midst Of the Bob Whites.
Instantly there was roar of wings
as Bob White and Mrs. Bob led the
way for the young Bob Whites.

through life. What is beautiful for
one Is dreadful for another.
This was the first hunting season
for the 20 young Bob Whites who
this year made up the big family OF
Bob White and Mrs. Bob-the biggest
family they had ever had. They had
been well trained, had those 20 chill
dren. They had learned how to take
care of themselves when furred and
feathered hunters were looking for
them. Now, however, was the time
Of the greatest danger they had ever
known or ever would know. And they
had had no experience to teach them
what they should or should not do.
They were huddled all together in
a ring in a brushy-grown fence corner
on Farmer Browns farm. It was one
of their favorite hiding places. So far

TOMATO VINES USEFUL

Do not throw away dead tomato
vines, but use them as a mulch for
perennial flowers, plant experts of
the Ferry-Morse Seed Breeding In
stitute advise.
Tomato vines are superior to other
materials ordinarily used for mulch
ing for several reasons. Leaves and
straw sometimes pack too tightly. Air
and light can penetrate the vines, and
snow can sift through. forming an
effective seal after the first good
snow.
A mulch layer Of one tomato vine
may be suflcient, but q thickness of
/. two or three Ia safer. It Is most i'm
portant, however, that mulching not
be done until after the ground has
frozen.

MIRACLE HOUSE OPENS

The Miracle House at Claiborne
was opened for the seventeenth sea-
son on June %, when nearly one
hundred children left Baltimore for
the Eastern Shore.
Many of these children are contact
cases of tuberculosis, and need to
have their small bodies built up so
that any infections they might re-
ceive can be overcome. The children
are of both sexes, and are from six to
twelve years of age.
According to William B. Matthews,
managing director of the Maryland
tuberculosis Association, this season
should be on of the most successful
in the history of the Miracle House.
He said, "All of the children have
been very carefully selected in order
to insure those needing the treatment
the most of getting it. Our purpose
is to prevent tuberculosis and those
who attend have shown that they are
in need of this care"
The children left Baltimore in the
morning for Annapolis where they
boarded the ferry for Claiborne. A
holiday spirit was noticeable for a
summer In quest of health.
