"Just Married"
Signs Are Late.

Moorhead-When it happened IA
years ago, Mr.. and Mrs. Stanley Cowan
received it as something to be expected
on their wedding day, but when they
left Erskine church one night last week
and their car appeared before their
eyes gayly decorated with streamers,
"just married" signs and tin cans that
was somewhat of a surprise. Ross Den
hover and his bride of a few minutes,
whose wedding the Cowans had at
tended in the church, liked the idea.
The decorations had been intended for
their car-one of similar make-which
stood elsewhere, unscathed by merry
makers. So, Mr.. and Mrs. Cowan,
bride and groom of IA years, returned
to Moorhead in car labeled with "just
married" signs, while Mr.. and Mrs.
Denhower left on their wedding trip
with only the blissful look of honey
mooners to betray the fact that it was
they who had been just married.

Today's home-building, home-buying
dollar buys from Is to 40 per cent more
home than it would have ten or twelve
years ago, declare local building in
dustry groups who are sponsoring a
campaign to get the facts on home
building costs before the citizens of Ely,
in connection with the National Sales
mems Crusade under way here.
At the same time home buying dollars
purchase 16 points of outstanding value
not even available few years ago, ae-
cording to these local groups.
One of the major reasons given for
construction costs being down is that
the price of building materials, fix
lures and equipment averages nearly 10
per cent less than in 1926 and many of
the most important materials going into
a new house or modernization job are
from 20 to Is per cent less, despite great
improvement in quality in the last II
iyearS.
Another important factor IS that fl
ancing costs, under the FILA type of
time-payment mortgage, are as much as
IS per cent less than during the boom
days of 1925-29, and interest charges
are substantially lower.
In reviewing the typical house OF
1926, analysis shows that generally it
was poorly designed, with as much
as one-fifth of it's space wasted, and
that it cost more to maintain. Heating
was non-automatic and there was nc
insulation; thus the cost of heating was
high in winter and in summer rooms
were hot and uncomfortable.
Kitchens had none of the labor saving
devices of today. There was usually
only one bath, and plumbing was COM
paratively crude. General construction
methods were not as advanced as to-
days, foundations were too light in
many cases and plaster cracks and loose
fitting windows were almost the rule
In addition, the owner struggled under
an oppressive financing burden.
This picture is contrasted with the
modern house which has minimum
of waste space and is scientifically
planned. It is efficiently insulated sc
that the owner no longer heats all out
doors or swelters on hot days anc
nights. Other plus value" features are
automatic heating, healthful air con-
ditioning and concealed radiation.
Modern kitchens are designed to save
steps and work and most new houses
today have at least two baths. Plumb
ing is much superior because copper anc

Rides Bicycle on
82O-MiLe Trip.

Springfield-Riding a bicycle from
here to Hastings, Nebraska and back,
distance of 800 miles, was the &C
complishment of Emil Nickel, who re-
turned last week from his jaunt down
and back to the harvest fields of
Nebraska. He was enthusiastic about
his means of transportation and
stressed the economy of it. "All my
bicycle cost me Was about four cents
worth Of oil. had no flat tire and no
trouble of any kind. You know,
didn't even carry a wrench" he said.
He never did any riding at night and
occasionally stopped day or so at
places of interest. Some days he rode
as much as 80 or IS miles, but on the
average IS miles was enough. Leaving
Springfield five weeks ago to find work
in Nebraska, Nickel rolled up a small
pack, strapped it on the back Of his
bike and started out. He said the first
days ride was the worst. Evidently the
cotton padding which he had placed
on the bicycle seat, didn't help much to
ease the strain because he commented
that "those bicycle seats aren't per-
fected yet"
