MODERN SCHOOL HOMES
SCORNED BY PBASNT8
MOSCOW—(U P)—"There's no
place like home,” the peasants of
the village .Lugansk, In tho timber
district of Northern Russia, told
the state timber truat which want
ed to tako over the village land
for its work and proposed to build
the peasants new and more com
fortablc houses in a locality i
iew.miles away.
The only conditions on which
they consented to move at all was
that the new houses should be
exact* duplicates of the old with
few and small windows and dark
smoky interiors. , -
They watched the architects
closely at their work; and one old
peaslat woman raised such a dis
turbance when uhe found that the
celling in the new house would be
higher than it wan in the old that
the engineen had to .raise the
floor at great trouble and expense
in order to stilt her outcries.
