redesigning regular COM
mercial appliances.
An electric eye, secreted in
the shrubbery, announces the
arrival of visitors by setting
off a gong inside the house.
After dark, the same eye
floodlights the yard.
There also are other sur
prises for the first-time
visitor. BY means of an inter
communication system, Mr..
Menut greets callers before
they reach the door. His
voice comes strong and clear
down the lawn, although he
is inside the house. But be
careful what you say. BY
means of the same system,
he can hear the callers con-
versation almost as soon as,
they step from their car.
And, incidentally. an un-
wanted visitor might be sud-
IDENTIFY surprised by an elec-
trified wire that circles the
house at window level.
Inside, Mr.. Menut. who now
is head of the Army Engineers
Power Procurement Office, has
given his ingenuity full rein.
He has rigged up a nre-alarfn
system which involves a ther-
mostat in an inconspicuouS
place in each room. Should
a fire break out, the thermostat
would touch off an electrical
system which would indicate
on a signal box in the hall
way the room in which the
blaze was located.
He also has installed an
emergency lighting system
in case of a power failure.
The lights are powered by a
storage battery which is re-
charged weekly.
Mrs. Menut's kitchen is the
last word in convenience.
Above the long work table
are 20 outlets for electrical
appliances ranging from a
coffee grinder to knife sharp
ener. OF course, there is a
dishwaSher and, beside 1T, a

The basement Is a maze of
wires. 1t has an automatic
washer, drier. freezer and a
long row of power tools COM
plete with an exhaust system
to take away the dust and
dirt.
Mr.. and Mrs. Menut built
the house about 10 years ago.
They contracted for only the
outer walls, floors and plumb
ing. Then they began work
on the electrical installations
and finished off the interior
as they went. But even now
they change things once in
a while or add a new gadget.
Their electric bills? About
like yours and mine.

disappearing rack dries dish

piled heat. The range is

garbage-disposing unit.
In the living room, a radio
speaker is concealed behind
a tapestry on the wall and a
otor-driven fan provides
draft for the fireplace. An
antique organ stands in a
corner, but a vacuum cleaner
motor in the basement pumps
its bellows in place of the
original pedal and leg-power
system.
Even the bathroom has not
been overlooked. A radio
turns on automatically when
the room is in use.

Blessed With Ruins

PUINS can be blessing in more
- ways than one. So Chicago and
San Francisco and Baltimore we're
better cities after their big fires;
Louisville improved after its great
flood; the New South" Of today is
blessed as the Old South, for all its
glamor, could not have been.
Sometimes a man who has
been depending on anything but
God for hope and happiness
on his money, ON his friends, on
his health, on his POSITION
finds these things swept out
from under him, and then at
last comes back to God.
After mans childhood faith has
been shattered by manhood's dis
illusionments, 1t has often come to
pass that out of the ruins of the
childish beliefs he rears a tower of
faith far stronger than anything he
has lost.

But today plenty of people who

when they drive by Easy's place
just to look at those roses. Most
beautiful sight you ever saw.
Practical, too! The hedge is a
good four foot high now, and at
least five foot thick-even a shoat

Let's Not Make Ruins

THIS does not mean, Of course,
= that we ought ever to 60 out and
deliberately make ruins. The best
way to improve other nations is not
to drop bombs on them; the best
way to be improved ourselves is not
to act in such ways as to tempt 9TH
er nations to drop bombs on US.
The best way to build a better
faith Is not to scrap all the faith
we have. The best way 10 find
God is Tot TO go out and find
him In fox-hOle. The blessings
Of ruins are not the best God
has; but sometimes they are
what II takes TO bring man to
his senses. .tt ....
And II the crash does come, and
the towers fall, and life lies In rub
BILE around US, we must remember
what the Hebrews learned: that
even in the ruins we may. better
than ever, come TO know the living
God.

cient times who lived to thank God
for the ruins of Jerusalem.
At Last They Believed
IF you had asked resident of that
I city, at the hour when the enc
my army was burning his beloved
home, if Gods hand was in the
catastrophe, most likely he would
have said, mo, not by any means.
This is ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS work, or
the devirs-certainly not Gods"
Consider what good came out
of it. For one thing, 1t taught
the Jews that God is really
God Of justice, after all. The ma
ton that sinneth, it shall die.
the nation that takes the sword
shall perish by the sword. The
prophets had been trying to tell
them that for many long year;
but no attention had been paid.
The sins the prophets had said
God would surely punish, went on
and on, and there seemed to be no
reckoning and no punishment. The
little nation was deluded into think
ing it could get by with anything
for as long as they pleased. But
after the crash of $50 BIC, they all
knew the prophets had been telling
the truth.
Yesterday Is Dead
TOR another thing, the exile cured
the Jews, for long time, of
trying to be political nation like
other nations. God had called them
to another kind of existence. So long
Has they had been an independent
patton they had kept fooling around
with politics, armies, international
intrigue. After all that had been
swept into Nebuchadnezzar's dust
kbinI the peoples hearts turned more
and more to God and his laws.
Another way In Shich that
e..y-wide ruin was a blessing
was t;,at II "killed yesterday"
Before the fatal year $50, the
Hebrew kings and people had
more or less looked backward.
Every king wanted to be great
conqueror like David, a wealthy
pOtentate like Solomon. But they
never would look the cold fact
In the face, that those days were
gone forever.
But when the exiles caEc back to
rebuild the ruins, the younger ones
at least looked forward. Yesterday
was dead; they built now for to-
morrow.
