F. H. A. SEES GAIN
IN NEW HOUSING.
Refinancing Operations
Passed in Volume by Con-
struction Operations.

A reversal in the type Of business
done by the Federal Housing Admin
istration under the single-mortgage
system is shown in a report of the
home show recently held at Louis
vile, KY.
Applications received at the Housing
Administrations booth at the close of
the show totaled $1,028,495, and Of
this sum. 10 per cent was for new
construction and 10 per cent for mort
gage reflnancing, the remaining 20
per cent being for modernization. At
the clinic held in that city in October
50 per cent Of the applications were for
refinancing.
The interest shown in new building
by those who attend national home
shows is Substantiated by an official
of the Southern Pine Association, who
reports that numerous requests have
been received by his company con-
corning the possibility Of duplicating
the model home which was displayed
at the Miami show.
In discussing the interest of the
public in homes, this Official said:
Our representative in attendance
reported that approximately 1000 per-
sons definitely stated their intention
of building home similar to the one
we featured, and so or more wanted
the plans and specifications for this
home.
THE appeal Of our exhibit to the
home buyer was convincing evidence
Of the effective manner in which a
display of this kind sells lumber for
home construction"

public to be informed as to what the
architect can give today in terms Of
1885 values.
1.-THE architect Is primarily the
designer, but, as an essential service
in realizing the design, he selects and
describes the materials and super.
vises the construction for con-
formance with the design. The archi-
tect Is trained to render these services
professionally, impartially and in the
clients interest.
These services must be rendered
in connection with every house and
they are performed by some one, but
not always by an architect. The
man who Is trained for these services,
who is the architect, Is certainly the
one best qualified to render them.
THE quality house Is pleasing In
appearance both within and without
1t Is even beautiful. This elusive
thing called beauty results from good
proportions, good shapes, or masses,
and good textures and pleasing colors.
The architect includes these factors
In his problem along with those Of
arrangement, strength and durability.
Importance of Convenience.
"a well-designed arrangement for
a kitchen, equipped with good range,
refrigerator and sink and finished with
durable and pleasing materials will
be a comfort and Joy to. the house
wife, but II she must run all around
in doing her work because of a bad
plan, no amount Of fine equipment
or finishes will save the kitchen from
failure.
And what about the smoky fire.
place? Will beautiful marble facing
or a fine tile hearth. make up for
the smoke in your eyes? And so it
is for the other parts and for the whole
house. 1t must be designed to fit
the comfort and convenience of the
family and the house must 1T the
community as well as the family"
In connection with the institutes

held by the Association Of Collegiate
Schools of Architecture, the National
Council of Architectural Registration
Boards, the Producers Council, the

RAISE AGELIMI

For a Short Time 1t Will Be
% Years Old Instead
of 25 Years
ADVANTAGES AFFORDED

The United States Marine Corps
announced today that the max
imum age limit for. first enlist
ments in that branch of the ser
vice has been raised to % years.
1t was formerly 25 years. The ex-
tension of the age limit to 2S
years will probably be of short du-
ration, therefore, those who are
between 25 and % years of age
and are interested in applying for
enlistment in the Marine Corps
should do SO within the next few
weeks. Among the many advan-
tages afforded all men in the
Marine Corps are the opportunities
for education, travel, and adven-
ture. Marines perform duty at
shore stations in the United States,
aboard ships of the United States
Navy, and in foreign countries.
They have an opportunity to learn
a trade or profession by enrolment
in one of the many courses offered
by the Marine Corps Institute.
These courses are furnished free of
charge and may be taken regard
less of where the man is serving.
The Marine Corps is also offering
an opportunity to enlist to young
men who can play a trombone, cor
net, trumpet, or the drums. Men
who demonstrate their ability to
play one of the above instruments
are enlisted as drummers or trum-
peters. Young men who are in
terested in applying for enlist
ment should communicate with
