But the remaining 8 million

that automatic decontrol be-

Problem Lot Con Be Unus uoI Setting for Your Hon
By Glodys Miller

Perched high on hill in Los
Angeles overlooking heavily
populated valley is an attractive
small home designed by talent
ed. young. Chinese-American ar
Chitect.
He built this home for young
bachelor who had little money
but wanted to live as well as he
could on what he made.
The owner found and bought a.
peculiarly shaped lot in a section
of the city popular with artists.
1t was isolated to degree, not
in the expensive area, yet trans
portation was good to the main
section Of the city by car.
He took his problem to the ar
chitect. and now has small home
with large ving-dining room,
guest room, conversation kitchen,
his own bedroom and bath over
looking the city and his own at
tractive garden terrace.
Bookcases flanked the stone
fireplace in the comfortable living
room. The ceiling was slightly
pitched with the roof, and the ex-
posed beams painted white, as is
all of the woodwork except for
the two end walls. These are
stained.
Against the end wall nearest the
kitchen is placed the dining table
and chairs. The other wall SEEM
ingly has a built-in wardrobe or
cabinet, but when you open up the
two large doors you find a pair of
comfortable double-deck beds
tucked in, well equipped with good
reading lights, and shelves for
books.
The window wall has drawn cur
tains of white cotton. The color
scheme is bleach white. chartreuse,
red and gray. The architect tells
me his client purchased most OF
the furnishings himself.
Above the comfortable bed in
the separate bedroom hangs a.
beautiful kakemono. The ward
robe has the convenient and work.
able sliding door so popular in
the Orient. In addition to the
bed, bedside lamp table and ward
robe, there is a slipper chair and
some low shallow bookShelves.
During much of the year. there
are parts of the day one can
spend some time out-of-doorS.
The evenings are generally cool,
so advantage is taken of an out
door barbecue for meals. The ar
chitect has oriented the house so
that it protects any one sitting on
the terrace from cold winds.
If you know of a problem lot
that you can purchase reason
ably. find yourself courageous
architect and you'll have a home
that has character and individu-
ality. What is more. it will be
yours and look it.

DAILY CARE OF HAIR
STATE AGENT ADVISES

Most girls do have lovely hair,
for youthful hair is naturally lus-
trous, alive, luxuriant. Such a pity
then that girls often fail to make
the most of this natural beauty.
Daily brushing is absolutely
necessary to keep hair in good con-
dition, so finding a few minutes
morning or evening to brush your
hair thoroughly is a must. Even
two minutes will help, though five
is fairer daily time allowance.
Brush with long vigorous
strokes. Don't be afraid of dis
turbing a wave or disarranging a
part. First, brush a section at a
time, then go over your whole
head. Immediately after brushing
recomb your hair, Strengthening
the part and arranging it for the
day or as you wear it to bed. Hair
should never be left in wild dis
array for the night, but should be
neatly braided, tied, or combed in
to place before retiring.
Why does brushing the hair do
what a comb wouldn't do? For one
thing, it removes the surface dust
and dirt which, if allowed to ac-
cumulate, dims and dulls your hair.
Then it removes loose dandruff
flakes and scales of dead scalp
skin. If you are bothered with dan
druff, pay particular attention to
brushing your scalp. Part off a
section at time and brush the
scalp vigorously at each part.
Brushing from the scalp down to
the ends of the hair also. helps to
distribute evenly the oil.
Brushing exercises the scalp
in fact it is the best exercise you
can give it, and exercise is impor-
tant for the roots of your hair just
as for the rest of your body. Brush
ing strengthens and stimulates the
glands, the roots, the scalp itself
making your hair healthier and
better-looking.
