= HOVER according to your age
If you are not yet grpwn-up
~ have a junior showerbath. If
you are elderly, sit down and
take it with a spray.
This is the latest refinement Of an
Age of Showers, made feasible by the
introduction of new accessories which
adapt that familiar overhead sprink-
ling beloved by all Americans to the
infant, the growing child and the
elderly person, as well as to the adult
in his prime.
A manufacturer Of prefabricated
metal shower stall units has just put
out on the market cabinet equipped
with two shower heads, hose spray,
a canvas hammock and a special foot
shower, making it possible to use the
same unit in five different ways.
First, of course, is the normal over
head shower. But this particular Unit
is equipped with two showerheads, one
at the usual height of feet above the
receptor, and the other only 4 feet
above it. BY turning handle you
can make the water flow from the
lower head for a secnd kind of shower,
which is just right for any to II year
old There is even a special junior
curtain suspended from low bar over
which youngster can look while the
water tingles against his skin. Be-
cause the drops don't have to drop so
far, the shower is much gentler, and
the children like 1t better.
For older folks, to whom an over
head shower is too stimulating, moth
ing is better than a shower by means
of hose spray which attaches to the
lower shower head fitting. 1t can be
taken sitting down on stool in the
shower stall
Fourth is the shower for baby
also by means of the spray, but the
baby lies on a light weight canva:

be turned down after the bath fol

baby-just like those canvas bath
tubs most mothers use nowadays. But
there is no emptying of soapy water
after the spray bath is over.
The foot bath is the fifth kind, taken
by merely raising your foot foot OF

OF SO per cent of the volume of all new
one family homes during the month.
The United States Building and Loan
League reports those estimates on the
basis of loan tabulations submitted by
associations with nearly half of the
total resources in the business.
Morton Bodfish, executive vice presi-
dent of the league, nnds that the
February loan disbursement was l3
per cent larger than January and 22l
per cent larger than the comparable
month year ago. The number of
loans made was placed at $4,000, as
compared with $4,000 a year ago.

Total Expenditure Declines.
All money spent for new construc-
ton in the United States in February
was less than for the previous month,
but construction loans by savings,
building and loan associations in
creased between the two months, "
commented the league official. Hence
we draw the conclusion that this type
of institution is a more important
factor in the financing Of home build
ing than it was the previous month,
and conditions within the associations
suggest that they will continue. to in
crease their part in the building of
new houses"
Among such conditions within the
business he named the growing num-
ber of associations which are making
the loan plans offered more flexible,
the increased appropriations for max
