The material itself isn't new but it's
application to building construction
is ultra-modern. Glass in the form of
bricks which are laid exactly like
ordinary masonry walls are now avail
able for use in the modernization of
your home. No longer will you have
to burn lights at midday to see prop
erly If you replace one or more of
the walls of your home with this re-
markable new development. You
merely have to enlist the aid of q
reliable builder or architect to have
plans for the necessary alterations
drawn up, and in a surprisingly short
time old walls will lbe removed and
ghstening glass surfaces will take their
place.
When these glass bricks are made
their surfaces are SO arranged that
light will pass through, but it is i'm
possible to see through them thereby
making available to the home mod
ernizer prodigious amount of day
light, but insuring complete privacy
at all times. The usual windows can
be installed in these glass walls, If

FEBRUARY HIGHER
IN NEW BUILDING
Total of Work Started Is
One.Third Above That
of Year Ago.

Construction work started in Febru-
ary showed a total about one-third
greater than was reported in February,
1886, according to figures from F. w.
Dodge Corp. Reporting on the Feb
ruary results this agency indicated a
total OF $l88,590,800 for February in
the 81 States east Of the Rocky Noun
tains, as compared with $140,419, 100
for February Of last year and $242,-
$4,000 for January Of this year.
For the initial two months of 1887
the figure amounted to s431, ,434, 300,
gain of about % per cent over the
corresponding two-month total Of
1885, 5,2l1 900 for 1886.
The February, 1897, figures included
S63,011,700 for residential building;
this was more than twice the total of
S3l IT'S, 500 shown for February 1896,
and contrasts with $78,423,700 for
January, 1887. For the first two

THE recent wave Of crimes by peo-
pie breaking into homes because
the front door was opened without
first investigating the callers identity
should warn everyone to first take a
look, then open, even though you
merely use a safety chain on the
door For more complete security,
however, particularly II the lady OF
the house Is left alone all day, and
sometimes in the evening while her
husband attends lodge meeting, you
should install one of the new door
inquirers which have just been put
on the market
These little devices are placed in a
small opening located at eye level in
the door panel and have a small door
which slides up and down in back
when lifted with flick OF a finger.
You merely have to put a two-inch
diameter hole through the door, place
the attractively decorated cover plate
on the outside, which also contains a
card space and number space if you
live In an apartment, and screw on
the back plate with the proper length
bolts.
The unique thing about these little
peep holes is the patented locking ar
rangement which is provided. A small
ball is located in such a Wav that
only when you move it In a certain
place you can open the sliding door,
1t can't be opened from the outside
by even an expert safe cracker, and
should certainly provide the ultimate
IN protection from anything from a
sneak thief to brush salesman,

HALF OF FAMILIES
ARE HELD RENTERS
Greater Part of Rented Homes
Are of One and Two Family
Type, F. H. A. Reports.

More than one-half of non farm
families in the United States live In
rented quarters. The greater part of
these rented homes are one and two
family houses, many of which are old
and in poor condition, while several
million families, especially in the
larger cities, live in multi family
dwellings.
Many of the rented quarters are
occupied by single persons and by
families of limited means for whom
home ownership is impractical. There
is now a large immediate demand for
construction of new apartments at
low and moderate rentals in most
cities. There is also a latent demand
for modern ne-family houses, both of
the detached type and in rows, for
rental purposes
Thus far during the present recov-
cry period private capital has been
relatively slow in entering these fields
There is great immediate need for
1udicious investments in low and me-
dunn priced rental housing Interest
Ing results of the Federal Housing
Administrations activities in this field
during the year are described in it's
third annual report.

EXHIBIT TO SHOW
NEW DECORATIONS
Triple Brides House Will
Be or Display 3 Months
in New York.

How the bride Of today will decorate
her house or apartment can be viewed
in an exhibit of triple brides house,
built and displayed by House Beauti-
full Magazine at the Savoy Plaza
Hotel. New York City. The exhibit,
free to the public, opens March 10 and
will continue for three months.
The houses in the exhibit are three
separate ones, designed to suit fami-
lies of various taste and incomes.
There are: Cd A five-room apartment,
decorated in modern manner; (2)
five-room apartment in traditional
eighteenth century, and go two
room apartment frankly acknowledge
ing that most young couples start out
with limited space, but proving this
need not limit good living or charm.
Contrast in Old and New.
Showing the newest ideas in interior
demonstrate clearly the contrast be-
tween the old and the new in decora-
ton. Carpets feature the new off,
colors; hangingS, draperies and uphol-
stery fabrics are chosen with rare
taste, and there are fine reproductions
of old classical furniture as well as
the new Streamlined effects. Mirrors
are skillfully embodied in the archi-
lecture of the rooms. Wall paper and
linoleums are used in the newest ways
and ornaments, lamps and accesso-
ries are combined with taste and
originality
The living room of the modern
house features an enormous Semi-cir-
cular window and is a study in tones
Of beige from the blond woods and
upholstery to the walls and draperies.
The use of Oriental green and scarlet
for color relief and old Chinese figures
on modern cabinets and the old Chi
neSe painting above the very modern
fireplace treatment show how success
fully the old blends with the new.
The traditional house achieves a
gracious and mellow charm with its
reproductions of fine old ChippendaIe,
Sheraton and Hepplewhite, combined
with colorful chintz, new Silken fab
RIGS, modern crystal lamps and clever
incidental touches.
Apartment Furniture Adaptable.
The two-room apartment-regency
IN feeling. but modern, TOBIAS an
alcove- dining room and the furniture
is selected, not only for its decorative
ness, but for its adaptability. Tables
oan be enlarged, when necessary, and
commodes and cupboards are artfully
contrived to add the extra storage
space that the small apartment so
often lacks
The kitchens are compactly and
Interestingly arranged showing diff
ferent color treatments. In the kitch-
ems either gas or electric stoves and
refr1gerators are available. Bath
rooms feature the new use of glass
bricks, new lighting arrangements
and unusual colors Each house works
wonders with closets, foyers, dressing
rooms, and shows what can be accom-
pliShed with what is often waste space.
The brides house was built by
G. Foster Harell and decorated by
Ottilie Heuer, House Beautiful staff
decorator Colored motion pictures of
each house have been made and will
be shown in leading department stores
throughout the country.

Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
FAIRFAX, Va, June 5.-Fairfax
County closed its books as of June
80 with the smallest tax delinquency
on a previous years levy since 1929,
it was announced this morning by DR..
F. w. Huddleson, county treasurer.
OF the total real estate and per-
sonal property levy for 1886, amount
ing to 1851 sos. approximately S48,O 900
was returned delinquent as of June
30, the treasurer stated, which is 1875
per cent of the entire levy A great
many persons paid their taxes almost
at the June 80 deadline in order to
avoid the interest charge which auto
matlCally began on all unpaid 1896
taxes on July l.
The percentage Of delinquency this
June 80 represented a decrease Of
more than 3.5 per cent over the COR
responding time last year, the treas
urer pointed out. At the close of busi-
ness June 80, 1886, slightly more than
II per cent of the 1885 levy was re-
turned delinquent.
A similar increase in collections on
the 1886 State income and Intangible
levies was also reported by DR.. Hud-
dleson. AS of June 80, but S466 re-
mained unpaid on the 1886 intangible
levy of S2l l,500. This marekd 90
per cent collection as against a 81
per cent collection last year.
The State income levy was S24.288
for 1886, of which amount only S4O8
was returned delinquent in the treas
urer's office, II per cent delin-
quency, compared with a delinquency
OF approximately 2 per cent the COR
responding period in 1886. Ordinarily
the county holds to very high aver
age in the collection of both Intangible
and income taxes, and of the 1895
levy only 1923 of the Intangible levy
is in arrears and sl98 of the income
levy.
In the pre-depression years the
county generally carried forward only
q small delinquency on the real es-
tate and personal property levies. DR..
Huddleson asserted. but beginning
with 1880 the per cent took a sharp
Jump upward.
