New Pointe
s
Unit Opened

Opening of a third unit of Edge
mere, the Crosse Pointe Farms es-
tate property located between
Lake Shore road and Crosse Pointe
boulevard, just east Of Mckinley
place. was announced Saturday by
Roy Bailey, manager of the Crosse
Pointe branch of S. c. Hadley, Inc,
Detroit realtor, appointed to han
die the sale of the property.
"Sale of home sites in the first
and second units of Edgemere,
those fronting on Elm court or
Pine court which were opened
last Fall, has proven there Is
such a demand for this type of
property that third unit, just
east of the original Edgemere, Is
now Open," Bailey said. "A fea-
ture of this new section will be
winding through street from
Lake Shore road to Crosse
Pointe boulevard. Building re-
strictiOns will be the same as in
the previous units, homes from
$4,000 up, being approved. The
new unit Is just as beautifully
wooded and attractlvely land
scaped as the other ones, all
three being part OF large pri-
vate estate which was carefully
tended for many years"

ZOned Heat
Dual Thermostats N o u
Devised for Home

One OF the newest refinements
of automatic heating which is be-
ing applied 10 many new houses
now under construction, says the
Plumbing and Heating Industries
Bureau. is the separate zoning of
the first floor and second floor.
Zoning simply means a dual
thernoStatic control system One
thermoStat controls the tempera-
ture on the first floor and another
instrument maintains the required
temperature on the second floor.
Thus the temperature OF the
first floor NAV be kept somewhat
higher than the second floor, If
this is desired. Such tempera-
ture differential is particularly de-
sirable at night when most per-
sons prefer to have little or no
heat in the second floor sleeping
rooms.

Marriages Seen
As Stimulating
House Demands

A larger potential demand for
homes Is expected in the decade
between 1910 and 1850 because OF
the anticipated increase In the
number of marriages, the Federal
Home Loan Bank Review said
Saturday, in a study of new census
results and their effect on housing.
According to preliminary data
of the census bureau obtained by
the Review, the next 10 years will
see a great increase in the number
OF persons In manageable ages.
The Review article said:
The number of persons most
likely to marry In the early
years of the present decade
persons In the age group from
20 to FL years-numbered H.
100000 In 1910 rs compared with
10,870,00O persons of both sexes
In the same age group In 1880.
The number OF persons most
likely to marry In the latter
part of tho present decade
persons who were IA to 10 years
old In 1940-numbered 14,760,-
900 as against 1S,930,000 In the
same age group 10 years before.
"From 1850, how ever, the
aging Of our population will
have an adverse effect on the
demand for homes because q
progressively smaller number of
persons will reach manageable
ages result of the declining
birth rate

Aging Population

This phenomenon OF an laying
may affect the hous-
ing situation materially in other
ways, the Review warned. Census
figures show that the population
of the United States contains a
growing proportion Of older people
and a SIN Her proportion OF
younger people. The Review said {:
THE gradual aging of our
population, due to both lower
birth rates and improving NOR
tally rates, will undoubtedly
have important effects on the
types OF living quarters required.
Unless the combination OF two
families in one household-re-
tired parents living with their
children-becomes more fire.
quent than IL Is today, we may
expect rising demand for small
dwelling units to house the older
people.
THE number OF retired per-
sons seeking accommodations
away from the hustle of the city,
In areas OF favorable climate
and low living costs, will vastly
increase. This in itself will tend
to restrict the growth OF cities
and to hasten the development
of resort areas"

Radiators
Hide Them-iH Walls
Behind NeLO Grille

A radiator completely concealed
in the wall behind a plaster front
is among the newest equipment
for modernization of attn &
plants.
The new unit fits in the wall
where it is entirely out of the way
and out of sight. The handsome
grille, flush with the wall, is the
only evidence OF the source of
heat. The grille may be of either
steel or plastic.
Plastic grilles may be obtained
in six colors. Steel grilles may be
painted to harmonic with the
decorative sch me. Concealed
radiation can be used successfully
with steam, hot water or vapor
heating.

Built-in Furniture Tests
Skill

Built-in furniture offers a def
mite challenge to the planning skill
OF the builder.
Many older homes may be given
much additional convenience and
up-to-date charm through use of
built-in furniture. Available spaces
exist in almost all homes, and
many OF these built-in items may
be financed under the moderniza-
ton credit plan of the Federal
Housing Administration.
Where the family contains one
or more growing boys, a built-in
bunk is a practical piece of furni-
ture. Not only does a bunk cap
ture the imagination of a young
boy but when properly constructed
or installed it is sturdy and able
to withstand rough use.

Boosts Business
By Advertising,
S|o(um Says

The value OF newspaper adver-
Using as a producer OF home mort
gage business has been proved by
the results OF educational advertis-
ing programs conducted by lead
inc Detroit lending institution.
Writing in recent issue OF
The Mortgage Banker, w. w. Slo-
cum. president OF The United Saw
inrs Bank OF Detroit, says that
Immediately after the FILA pro-
gram was put into effect his insti-
tuition began educa on
advertising-the kind in which the
object has been 10 interest people
in building new homes rather than
in the services which the firm has
10 offer.
This type OF advertising, based
upon the theory that people are al
ways interested in new homes and
that most new homes require new
,oans, proved profitable TO the
hank. according TO Slocum.
.We hsve always believed
he said. ".hst Newspaper adver-
tiang produces the best results
for the least expense. Tho ex-
csIlent rial estate sections Of
cur Sunday newspapers provide
the educational Interest which
always attracts tSose who are
thinking cf buildiry or buying
homes. People want TO know
about new homes, new homo con-
struction, psw homo conven-
fences, and IL Is only natural
that they would turn to these
sections OF the papers. This Is
also true of people who are plan
ring new improvements for

Families Increased

From 1880 to 1910, the number
Of families in the United States
increased at a rate more than
twice as fast as the total popuIa-
ton. accompanied by a consider
able reduction in the average
family size. AS the size of houses
in demand and the number of
rooms normally needed are deter
mined by the typical size of our
families, the Review said, this
tendency toward smaller house.
holds is an important factor to be
considered in home construction
and home financing activities. 1t
is one of the reasons why the mar
ket for larger single-family homes
dating from earlier periods is so
narrow today"

THINCLADS
LOOK GOOD
To Appear at Triangular
Saturday; Make Good
at Hibbing.

Making the best showing in years
at the annual Eveleth relays (held in
Hibbing). the Memorial high school
track team will take part in tri-
angular meet between Eveleth, Aurora
and Ely at Aurora Saturday after
noon at o'clock.
The Junior College has a dual meet
scheduled at Virginia between Ely,
Eveleth, and the Queen City, but may
not take part because of the difficulty
in organizing a team. The college did
not appear at Hibbing Saturday.
The high snhool thinclads captured
two flrsts and three seconds at Hib-
bling in competition with Is other
teams from the range and Duluth.
Ed Grahek spanked the trackmen to
their showing, winning the broad jump
in competition with all the schools
represented with leap of 10 feet 81
inches. Grahek beat out his neares.
competitor, Anderson of Coleraine, by
inches.
Grahek also took in his heat of
the 100-yard dash which was won by
Sterile of Virginia in 107 seconds.
Not to be outdone, Ted Grahek kept
up the reputation of his section of
the Grahek clan by taking first in his
heat of the high hurdles. His time
was 1872
After Ed Grahek's performance IN
the first race of the century, John
Novak entered the second race and
placed second behind Thomas of Den
field. Duluth, who won in 11.2.
Another second-place winner was
Don Prola in the high hurdles in a race
won by Snetsinger of Nashwauk in
1872.

to dodge the issue, sidetracking it
either angrily or flippantly. No effort
is made to inform the public as to
whether or not our aid is reaching
Britain or what possible moves are
open to us. No one knows for sure
either what is needed or what we can
do. No wonder the public is confused.
Senator Tobey of New Hampshire
has made several speeches for his
anti-convoy resolution in the Senate,
but no one from the majority side
has even attempted to answer him on
the merits of his proposal. Instead they
have uibbled over procedure.
1t seems to this writer that the
grave emergency of today demands
leadership that is not afraid to do
whatever the nations welfare and
security demand, regardless of whether
public opinion is entirely "ready" for
this or that move just yet.
One thing has become very evident
already in the Senate committees in
vestigation of national defense. That
is the fact that we could not possibly
send any expeditionary army to Europe
or anywhere else for at least a year.
We have an army of 100000 men
in the making, and the making won't
be complete for a year. That does
not mean that the War department
is not doing a remarkable job. But
we did not place orders for the tanks,
the new guns, and all the other equip
ment that army must have to be an
army until last summer and fall, and
factories are just beginning to swing
into real production. Troops are now
receiving the Weapons with which to
train, but will not have full combat
equipment until next summer.
Of course as Secretary Stimson
pointed out, in an emergency, the army
could go into action, with 100000 or
zoe, 900 or even more equipped to fight.
But is would have to be a terrific
emergency.
That is not true of the navy, which
was not kept on a skeleton basis for
twenty years as was the army, and is
ready for action at any time.
The news bulletin of the Norwegian
embassy here says that despite all
precautions and orders by the Nazis
occupying Norway, the Norwegian
people found ways of expressing their
resentment at the occupation on April
9, anniversary of the invasion of Nor
way.
Men and women dressed in black as
if for a funeral, pine branches signi-
flying sorrow were strewn on streets
and the national monument at Hal
de was decorated with black crosses.
But the real demonstration came al
2 p. m. sharp, when all Norwegian;
left the streets. If they were in stores
or business establishments, they halle
their work or business and waited
silently for half an hour The silence
in the streets was broken only BY
storm troopers who paraded ner-
vously.
