hours or you may buy those,
too.
If you prefer shelter at the door,
a small semi circular portico with
slender pillars holding it up is a
thoughtful addition for friends and
family in rainy weather and an
added attraction at the same time.
Instead of placing a peaked roof on
it leave planting trough close to
the edge which may be filled with
geraniums and trailing foliage
plants. This will be a gay spot Of
color at the front door and may be
left empty later or planted with
small evergreens for the winter. This
Is even more attractive when the
semi-circular idea is carried out at
the base with flagstone steps re-
peating the form and prim little
evergreens in tubs placed at either
side.
Don't forget the garden entrance
which becomes so important this
time of year. A flagstone terrace
with an awning above is one of
the simplest and easiest methods of
making this area more attractive.
This also makes an ideal spot for
a flower pot garden. The careful
arrangement of potted plants and
ferns has a distinct charm of its
own which is never forgotten by
any one who has seen the inclosed
gardens of Spain and Italy, or those
of our own Southwest. Select your
choicest petunias, pot them and
watch them flourish against house
wall. Mass these with geraniums
and other plants of interesting
bloom and foliage such as ferns
and ivies and you will be delighted
with the different effects you can
achieve. The pots are almost as
interesting as the plants and you
will be interested in making a col
| lection of the hand decorated
glazed ones or in painting your own
If you have no garden entrance
and would like one, consider how a
window in living room or dining
room might be heightened into a

door, with access to a terrace or
porch, which will be useful during
the warm evenings this summer
This might become covered
screened porch with steps to the
garden below or it might be merely
a landing with low wall on which
flower pots again might be the
decoration, and trailing vines on
trellises form the foliage founda-
ton planting.
If your living room or dining
room is high off the ground you
might find a small balcony a wise
investment. Nothing is better from
a decorative standpoint, and moth
ing more attractive than the COM
Portable feeling of enjoying the
cool of the evening in the treetops
A balcony may be wide enough fol
the comfortable use of chairs and
table for dining, sheltered with an
awning or open to the sky and
have window boxes planted with
growing things all around the rail-
ing.

Godgets
Shower Stalls,
Showerheuds
And Mixers
BY HILSON MUNSEY.

Last week this column described
some of the modern shower stalls
This week it will attempt to give Ar
idea of the equipment that can be
bought to install either in new
outfit or to be used to bring the
old installation up to date. Shower
heads and mixing valves are two OF
the most important. One of the
troubles with shower heads is then
tendency 10 clog at inopportune mo-
ments.
A shoWerhead that will flush it
self and so eliminate this incon-
Venience is obtained by substituting
plungerS for the usual perforations
in the face plate of the shoWerhead
There are six of them. Around each
plunger slotted holes allow the
water to flow. This flow can be
regulated by the lever handle at the
side of the ShoWerhead
When this lever is turned on 1t
forces a guide post that is connected
with the plungers downward and
throws the plungers through the
face of the Showerheao The further
the guide post is depressed the
greater the flow of the water.
Needle Spray to Flood.
When only slightly open, the
plungers form a needle spray. A
little further and there is the nor
NAL shower volume of water. When
the plungers are fully extended
there is a flood that washes away
any material that is clogging the
shoWerhead.
The same company makes a show
erhead attachment designed to bring
the old bathroom up to date. The
Improvement involves no changes of
the present plumbing system and no
disturbing of the thing or other
wall covering 1t consists of a
showerhead attached to pipe con-
nection that operates from faucet
that replaces the present faucet.
The Showerhead itself is of the
plunger type If desired and the
faucet is worked by lever handle
at the side.
Another Showerhead of the same
general type is adjustable. The
pipe connecting the head to the
water supply can be pulled forward
to any desired position. 1t is pos
sihle to get any kind of a shower
with this attachment. A full height
shower or sitting shower are the
two extremes. When the attach
ment is pulled down into the tub
tn its fun extent it acts as an or
binary faucet for filling the bath. It
can also be used for Shampooing or
for cleaning the tub No alterations
to the present layout are needed.
The attachment is substituted for
the present faucets
Water Mixers.
Mixing the water that flows into
the shower is an important matter.
If the water is too hot, one is liable
to be Scalded, and if it is too cold
the result is not at all pleasant. To
avoid these dangers. mixing valves
are made. One of these works on
the same idea as the first shower
head mentioned in this column.
That is to say, plungers with grooves
are used to control the hot and the
cold water.
Three different chambers in the
unit are used. The two lower ones
are for the hot and the cold water
tn enter and the upper one for the
mixing. The water of course, en-

Modernizlng the front entrance to
your home, or dressing up the gar
den entrance will enhance the
beauty and the value of your prop
erty at once. A minor construction
job and a major planting one will
turn the most ordinary little domi-
cile into a dwelling of dignity.
If your front door Is just an Or
binary opening with a window at
each side-perfectly practical aper-
lures which let in light and air but
do nothing else for the design OF
your house, consider how you might
make them more valuable from q

tiers under the two lower chambers,
one being connected to the cold wa
ter supply and the other to the hot.
And here is where the plungers
operate. They are installed in ports
or holes between the upper and the
lower chambers. These plungers are
of different shapes and the five
grooves in each plunger are of diff
ferent lengths. This difference
allows the flow of the water to be
gradual. Moreover, the grooves in
the hot and the cold plungers are
opposite-the hot water grooves ex-
tending up and the cold water
grooves extending down. Each, of
course, is stopped at an appropriate
place in the plunger.
Mixer Is Set To Suit.
The plungers are controlled by a
threaded spindle operated ny the
lever handles. The mixer is set to
the proper temperature before the
bath is used.
It should be remembered that this
mixer will not overcome the sud-
den change in the supply of either
the hot or cold water, If the hot
water is drawn off from another
faucet and the flow to the bathroom
diminished, the mixer will not COM
penSate for this.
The cure for this is to run the
water supply. both hot and cold, in
dependently from its source to the
bathroom.
Enthusiastically controlled mix
ers are also available. These can
be set by a handle to four different
temperatures-cold, tepid, warm and
hot.

Turkeys and Chickens Will Cost
Bluffton Residents More
This Year
Most Side Dishes are Bringing
About Same Prices as
Last Year

Thanksgiving dinners in 1941 will
cost Bluffton residents slightly more
money than year ago, especially
those who are bound by tradition to
serve either chicken or turkey as
the main dish.
Cranberries and other vegetables
are retailing on Bluffton markets at
normal prices with little variation
from the figures of last year. Gran
berries will sell for about 20 cents
a pound in Bluffton groceries, the
same figure as that of year ago.
TURKEYS
Dressed turkeys which sold on the
Bluffton markets around 25 cents a
pound last year will bring this year
33 cents a pound for choice birds.
Farmers are receiving about 19
cents for toms and about 81 cents
for hens.
Choice dressed chickens this year
will retail for 25 to 27 cents per
pound as compared to 19 cents a
pound last year. Farmers are get
ting 1612 cents per pound for good
roasting chickens this year.
SIDE DISHES
Side dishes such as oysters at 80
cents a pint and sweet potatoes at
five cents a pound; head lettuce at
10 cents a head and celery at 13
cents a bunch are bringing approxi-
mately the same prices as last year.
Supply of chickens and turkeys is
reported as adequate with quality
for both types of poultry reported
as excellent. 1t is estimated that a
full course turkey dinner for a
family of five will cost somewhere
around five dollars including every
thing.

PLAN SURVEY OF
EQUIP MENT FOR
FIRE Department
Type of Apparatus Best Suited
To Towns Needs is Objec-
tive of Survey
Present and Incoming Town
Councils to Work on Project
With Fire Chief

To determine the type of fire fight
ing equipment best suited to Bluff
tons needs will be the object of a
joint survey to be undertaken by the
present town council and members of
the council-elect which will assume
office the first of next year.
This was indicated early in the
week by Mayor w. A. Howe who stat
ed that the joint survey by the two
council bodies would be made in con-
junction with Fire Chief Guy Corson,
who has long recommended moderniz-
ing of the department.
Members of the council-elect will be
invited to attend meeting of the pres
ent council for the remainder of the
year at which time it is expected that
representatives of various manufacr-
urers will be heard and policy form
ulated as to the type of equipment
best adapted to local requirements.
Reverse Usual Procedure
The course now proposed would re-
verse the usual procedure in municipal
improvement projects in which the is
suing of bonds is ordinarily the first
step.
As now proposed a decision would
first be reached on the general type
of equipment and then steps taken to
issue bonds in any required amount
up to the $4,000 authorized by voters
at the election last week.
Under this procedure it is pointed
out that aggregate amount of the
bond issue might be somewhat less
than the $4,000 voted at the polls.
Two Principal Types
The councils decision on kind OF
aipment is expected to be one OF
o general types, or possibly COM
kation embodying some of the feat
es of each.
Advantages of the two, types OF
ouipment-Eght and heavy-will be
presented to the council. A light,
fast-moving unit would have an
advantage in speed while larger
uation once it reached the scene OF
action.
