Sturdy Home of Brick and Stucco
Provides Amazing Amount of Room
By WILLIAM A. RADFORD
Mr. William A. Radford will answer
questions and give advice FREE OF
COST on all subjects pertatntng to the
subject of building, for the readers of
this paper. On account of his wide
experience as Editor, Author and
Manufacturer, he is, without doubt,
the highest authority on all these sub
jects. Address all inquiries to William
A. Radford, No. 1827 Prairie avenue,

Home ownership Is the mark of the
substantial citizen in any community.
And this is rightly so, since the man
who has his interest in any community
by erecting a home and establishing
his family there is the citizen of the
most substantial type. He has invest
ed his money and is going to take a
careful interest in all that affects the
welfare of the community and of his
home.
And it is to those who desire to be
come a permanent part of their com
munities, and to establish their fami
lies in lasting homes that the design
shown in the accompanying lllustrationc
should appeal with particular strength.
This sturdy home of brick and
stucco contains a surprising amount
of room and its attractive appearance
will find many admirers. It is not of
the fad type of home which is built to
excess in the period of its popularity
to be discarded and scorned a few
years later. On the contrary, added
years in this home should bring added
satisfaction in its comforts and con
venient arrangement.
The combination of stucco and brick
in this home makes a pleasing appear
ince, which is heightened by the roof
lines, carefully considered and terml
aated with angles which prevent any
awkward length of ridge line. Notice
the pleasing finish of the porch col
amns and the ornaments used to re
lieve the plain surface of the fireplace
jhimney.
The porch gives every visible evi
dence of being a place which will be
used happily, and is not merely an
irnament hung on the front of the
house.
Examination of the interior arrange
ment of the house discloses a conven
ience of room grouping which can
;orue only from careful planning and
Intimate knowledge of the needs of the
American family.
Entrance is gained through a hall,
which contains the stairway to the
second floor. This hall gives access
co the living room and the downstairs
bedroom.
The living room, of comfortable size,
is dominated by the fireplace, which
!s naturally the first object impressed
on the visitor coming through the door
from the hall. The room is well light
,ed with windows on two sides and
wall space, free from windows, sug
gests attractive grouping of furniture.
The wide opening into the dining
room is a feature which will give an
added impression of spaciousness and
the nom Is of a size large enough to
care for the needs of a large group,
the living room and dining room,

taken together, provide a space large
enough for entertaining rather large
numbers of persons.
Notice the china closet, built across
one corner of the room and balancing
pleasantly the entrance to the sun
porch directly across from It. This
sun porch, with Its convenience of ac
cess from the pantry, would not only
be utilized throughout the day, but
might well furnish the setting for pleas
ing meals.
The kitchen is of an efficient size
and arrangement. The rear porch pro
vides for outside Icing of the refrig
erator and the convenient pantry will
be appreciated by housewives who
have been handicapped by lack of suf
ficient space for their operations. No
tice that two passageways to the din
ing room are provided.

Second Floor Plan.
The downstairs bedroom Is made
particularly convenient through tka
adjacent lavatory.
The bedrooms on the second floor
are of an adequate size and are excep
tionally well provided with closets.
Freight rates on materials and dif
ferences in prices of labor in various
localities make It Impossible to ap
proximate the cost of building this
home for the entire country. This in
formation can be gained most ac
curately from your local architect, con
tractor or building material dealer.
These men constantly are in touch with
building costs in your community.
Are Pictures Good on
Walls of Dining Room?
Shall pictures be hung in the dining
room, or shall they not?
That question must be answered, if
answered in a satisfying manner, by
the one who is to live with the dining
room.
The individual dining room and the
persons who use that particular room
must be the consideration. Are there
not well-planned and harmonious din
ing rooms in which pictures or even a
mirror would be out of place? In
some other dining room a goodly num
ber of pictures may be used to charm
ing advantage. One such room, to he
sure, is in a country home down on
Long Island; the house is Colonial in
style, the furniture very old and very
precious and of the same period as the
house. The walls of the dining room
are a soft gray and on them hang a
number of excellent English prints of
the hunt. The red coats of the hunts
men, the gaily-painted coaches, the
green of the foliage, all brightening
the room through the pictures bring
into It a color which is lovely.
In a most livable apartment in New
York, the dining room walls are cov
ered with grass cloth in natural tones,
and several framed Japanese prints
which are hung there make the room
more beautiful than the unadorned
walls could possibly have made it.
Into a dining room which is poorly
lighted a mirror of generous propor
tions will bring an unbelievable amount
of light, ns well as added beauty.
A single tapestry will give distinc
tion to a room which would, perhaps,
have been utterly devoid of charm and
beauty.
Not all of us can own old pictures
of flowers and fruits, those lovely crea
tions of other years, but most of us can
afford the good reproductions, “an
tiqued” in a most alluring manner, and
done in the soft tones which seemingly
years alone Can give, but which a new
art accomplishes very well.
One or two of these flower or fruit
pictures will lend a tone to the room,
will bring a sympathetic touch of color
to the dignified setting, and bring the
sometimes somber decoration into a
more agreeable accord with the feel
ing and atmosphere of the lovable
home.
Shingles for Exterior
Shingles make attractive exterior
walls for a home. Whether painted or
allowed to take on the hue that comes
when they are exposed to the weather,
shingles are attractive for the reason
that they give the vine clad cottage
effect to the home. Where shingles
are exposed to the salt sea air they be
come silvered, and Increase In beauty
with age. This effect can now be
gained artificially, so that many Col
onial style houses are constructed with
shingled exteriors, the shingles being
treated chemically before they ar*
put on.
Steps for Kitchen
A pair of sturdily built steps for
kitchen use will be found imperative.
These steps may be Just steps or may
he a chair, which when turned upsld*
down, forms step*.

Dilapidated Strongbox Re
sists Efforts of Thieves.
Farmingdale, L. I. —For many yean
fl dilapidated old safe, made of steel,
four feet high and three feet wide, has
been in the Farmingdale station of the
Long Island railroad. It has been
there so long that even the oldest resi
dent cannot remember when it was
not there. Yet, despite its age, it
stanchly withstood the. assaults made
on it by burglars with drills and other
tools of their profession. There was
SI2OO in the safe and some railroad
tickets.
When J. S. Newell, the station
agent, came on duty and went to get
the change money and tickets from the
safe he found that six large holes had
been drilled in it, and the combina
tion had been almost wrenched out of
place. But the money was there. A
safe expert had to be called in to get
the money out for the day’s business.
Detectives are looking for the cracks
men who punctured the safe but failed
to get the money.
Worker Dragged to Death
by Flywheel of Buzz-Sau.
Washington.—Dragged Into the fly
wheel of a small electric motor, A.
Clifton Pool, forty-two years old, was
almost instantly killed when part of
his head was tom off by the machine.
Pool was employed as a carpenter

ing a row of houses at Crittenden
street and Sherman circle, Northwest.
The motor, a small device, barely knee
high, is used to run a buzz-saw, and
Pool was employed cutting some
blocks on the saw.
The carpenter’s clothing became en

could even utter a cry, he had been
dragged to the ground and his head
fastened between the spinning wheel
and the body of the motor. Virtually
the entire right side of his head and
face were ripped away.

he attempted to increase the speed.
The tractor rose in the air on the back
wheels and fell back on its driver,
burying him in the dirt. Death was
almost instantaneous, it is said, though
the body was pinned beneath the ma
chine for an hour before assistance ar
rived. The spokes in the steering
wheel were broken aud Mr. Harley's
chest was crushed.

It’s Easy to Pay
For a Chevrolet
Everybody wants an automobile.
Everybody can pay lor a Chevrolet.
Everybody can afford to own a Chevrolet.
You can buy a Chevrolet just as you buy any other im
portant necessity. Not one family in a thousand pays
cash in full for a home. They make a substantial down
payment, then pay off the mortgage with what they used
to pay for rent, plus other savings.
A Chevrolet can be bought just as you buy a stationary
home. It earns its own way and you ride while you pay.
It is the best paying investment any family can make
because it provides transportation, saves time, and makes
all outdoors your playground, bringing health and happi
ness to the whole family.
There w a Chevrolet dealer near you. Ask him to show
you the different models and explain how easy it is to
get, use and pay for the one you want.
