MONTEREY HOUSE
COL0RS SPARKLE.
Delightful California Type
Home Permits Distinctive
Treatment in Tones.

Gradually gaining in popularity
across the country is the charming
California style Of architecture known
as Monterey. While decidedly rem
iniscent OF the gracious mode Of liv-
Ing century ago in the quaint sea-
port town from which 1t takes its
name, still Monterey presents a man.
ner of home building that is entirely
IN keeping with the modern standards
OF comfort and convenience.
1t Is. incidentally, especially fitting
that the style should achieve a Ma
tion-wide favor. for 1t is basically a
product Of both the East and West.
Monterey houses came into being be-
tween 1880 and 1s4o. They were
the products Of the intermingling Of
the traditional ideas OF the New Eng
land pioneers who came West and
the Spaniards whom they found there.
The houses show as much Of one in
fluence as they do Of the other.
Balcony Characteristic.
One Of the outstanding character
tstics OF the Monterey house is its
picturesque second-hoor balcony, which
extends usually the length OF two
or more rooms. Colorful shutter and
door treatment adds charm to the
exterior The body OF the house Is
usually coated in white or soft pastel
color.
A modern version Of a Monterey
house can, for instance. have a garnet
colored roof. walls and trim painted
a warm drab tone. shutters and bal
cony uprights tangerine, door and
balcony railing black.
A second color treatment Of a Mon
terey house includes kingfisher blue
roof and balcony uprights. white body
and trim, robins egg blue sash, ultra
marine blue shutters, emerald green
door and black balcony railing. This
unusual ALLEGATION of colors shows
up to sparkling advantage against
the white walls.
Olive Green and Rose Beige.
A third possible treatment COM
bines olive green. rose beige and sand
tones. The roof. balcony railing and
uprights are OF olive green. The body

ager Of the Home Owners Loan Corp,
announced today.
Ohio ranks first in the volume Of
fully liquidated loans, Mr.. Jones re-
ported, with 1888 accounts totaling
sl2552,0l3 crossed of the books as
Of July 81. Next in order came Cali
fornla, with 2.452 paid-up accounts

Pennsylvania, with 1901, totaling $4,-

On the basis OF the percentage Of
loans fully liquidated to the number
granted. the smaller States still lead.
Nevada borrowers have fully liquidated

that State. New Hampshire borrowers
have liquidated 1853, totaling s382433,

| In comparison, Ohio, the leader by
volume, has liquidated 40 per cent OF
its original loans, and the performance
records OF most of the other large
States fall into the same category.
The report Of the corporation, Mr..
Jones announced, shows that on June

No longer need the fastidious home
makers color-sensitive soul sadden at
the sight of blue shower curtains that
swear-colorfully speaking-at the
blue laundry hamper and blue-green
of the bathroom walls. They're all
blue, true enough-and lovely blues
when you see them separately-but
unfortunately they shrek to high
heaven in color discord when you get
them together.
Now the seven most popular shades
of bathroom colors have been iso-
lated, identified and fguratively finger
printed by bathroom accessory manu-
facturers and the National Bureau OF
Standards. These colors are white,
bath green ian aqua tone), orchid
ivory, maize, bath blue "a powder
blue) and the deeper royal blue. Be-
fore long you'll find that you can
purchase everything from toothbrush
racks TO bath tubs in the seven selected
shades
Until these seven colors become uni
versally adopted. however, take a tip
from the wise decorators and, with
the help of your painter or paint
dealer. do your own color match
making expertly.
They suggest that you start your
bathroom color scheme with the win
dow and shower curtains. But these
flrst--and at the same time-so
you're sure they harmonize. Take
curtain to your paint dealer. Tell
him, for instance, that you want the
floor to be deeper shade of the ivy
green that's in the curtain back
ground, with double border stripe
OF the same ivory that's in the fab
rlc. Perhaps you want ivory upper
walls and ceiling with soft green
lower walls and stencil design dado
rail of ivy in the same deep green
tone as the floor. The top surfaces
OF the dressing table and stool are
also to be ivory, while the lower sec
tions Of these two pieces are to be
deep green. Your linens, you're
planning, will be coral and white.
The dealer will either show you
that he can give you the desired COL
ors ready mixed or will tell you ex>
actly how to get the same ivory and
green by intermixing. Or, your
painter mixed them right on the Job
