In fact, it can be just decorative, with

pose at all; to wit, the Wrought-iron
work which is enjoying a merited
vogue in railings for stairs, balconies,
terraces and porches. Oh, yes, it will
protect you from falling, but it isn't
meant to keep out intruders.
If you have been thinking about re-
placing a hand-rail on the stairway
from your entrance hall, for instance,
investigate wrought-iron rails as we'll

with twisted pickets, scroll ornaments,

We have been looking over a cata-
logue of designs, and it has given US
ideas about where We could use
wrought iron, if we used some ingenu-
ity. For example, there is a very at
tractive second-floor open deck over
a f1agstoned open terrace. The COL

There are also several all-iron deck

SPEAKING of Easements, how safe

AS a general thing, Easements are
the weak link in the chain of protec-

the time. when you read of a burglary
you read the words: The thief en-

Yet without the sacrifice of air
light or vision. basement windows can
be made impregnable. There are steel
grilles on the market which can be
mounted on the face of the wall or
under the Intel and pull down over
the sash like window shades. The
controlling mechanism is out of sight
and out of the way. All you do is pull
down the metal grille by hand-or

The grilles are good looking, sacri-

are so popular for garages. only they

A WHISTLE of warning is one
n thing, whistle of protection
~ quite something else. Why
a not have whistle to protect
your oil tank from improper filling
with fuel oil?
Most alarms rely upon their sounds
to tell that something has gone wrong.
But we have found an oil tank safe
guard which whistles as long as all is
well. AS soon as the whistle stops the
oil delivery man knows it is time to
shut off the supply of oil. No spill
age. No dependence upon human
judgment
But, attractive as is this feature of
the device. there is another of its ad-
vantages which will appeal to house,
| holders equally as much. if not more.
That is automatic delivery. The tank
can be filled without any ones tramp
ing through the kitchen to get to the
basement. In fact. Oil can be put in a
tank without the driver even entering
the home.
The device is more than whistle,
OF course. 1t is an attachment guar
anteelng access to the oil tank wheth-
er or not any one is at home, and
without any dangerous overflow of
valuable oil. The oil man starts to fill
the tank; if all is we'll the whistle
blows. stopping when the tank is

knows the tank will take oil, that
there are no openings in the top of it
and that the vent pipe is not plugged
For the device is installed in the
vent line of a fuel tank. becoming
an integral part of the venting system
and operating on the movement of air
alone. The vent pipe carries the
whistle to the outside of the house
When the rising level of the oil seals
the bottom of the whistle stem, cut
ting off its air. the tank is filled to
the proper level. In a 275-gallon
tank, if the whistle stem hangs into
the tank at distance of some 25
gallons, the whistle stops at about $50
gallons. thus allowing for the expan-
