Development
Gets Name From
Large Naples

Maple Grove, Volk and Rovsek's
beautiful West Dearborn develop
ment. did not come by its name by
happenstance.
The development was so named
because of the giant maple trees
which stand majestically on each
lot of the project.
The developers of Maple Grove
have striven 10 create suburban
|homesites of beauty, within the
price range of this community's
moderate income group. To
achieve their aims, winding streets
have been constructed. The ap-
proach to the development is
|boulevarded. while scores Of naples
line the 80-foot wide thorough
fares.
Twenty-Five homes have already
been built or are under construc-
ton in Maple Grove and the
builders contemplate a suburban
development embracing 300 resi-
licences.
Models are open for inspection
and duplication prices begin at
S4.O5O. The architectural styles OF
the homes in Maple Grove vary
pleasingly, and there are models IN
both brick and frame.
The lots are sized 40 by 125 feet
and the development is near
schools. churches and shopping
|centers.

Potential home buyers were

Its only good common sense
to buy now before the inevitable
increase In costs" Volk declared.
The builder said his firms bust
ness was up 100 per cent thus far
this year. To accommodate the
buying demand, Volk said his COM
pany was enlarging its present
Offices on West Warren avenue to

Krieger said the roofs in Maple
Grove were first covered with a
primary felt base. This Is done TO
assure absolute protection and
waterproofing. The actual shingles
are then applied over this
covering.
And the color OF the roof was
not chosen arbitrarily, Krieger re-
vealed. The colors are selected
with an eye toward harmonious
blending with the roofs Of tha
other homes in the development.

A friend of mine once told me
that the only time she really rested
was in bed when she was recuper-
ating from an illness. Then, forced
by circumstances, she actually re-
Taxed and made the most Of her
opportunity to forget-if only for
a few days-the duties and cares
that occupied her waking hours
every day. She was a smart woman
because she had learned to turn
tedious moments into benefits.
Here's how she did it:
First, she cleansed the polish off
her nails. Next, she applied a good
hand lotion to her hands, and little
pads Of cotton saturated with oil
to her nails to soften the cuticle
so that when she again was ready
to be seen in public, her hands
would be smooth and feminine
looking, her nails pliable and in
good condition.
For ten or fifteen minutes three
times a day, she lay mapping with
small squares of cotton wetted with
warm boric acid solution on her
eyelids. The soothing effect derived
from this trick resulted in brighter
eyes, with no red or blood-shot
streaks to detract from their beauty.
Moreover, because her eyes were
encouraged to rest, the fatigue lines
and circles around them gradually
disappeared completely.
She tried giving herself simple
facials and found them quite sue
cessful and easy to administer. She
used a good cream, and allowed it
plenty of time to seer into the
pores. Then while she slept, while
her body regained the strength it
needed, she let these little beauty
