Glass Walls
Complete outside walls of a house
or other building can be built with
glass blocks, a new building materi-
I al. Made in various sizes, the blocks
are sealed, hollow and patterned so
that they pass light but are not
transparent. Their enclosed hollow 1
centers insulate much more etlec- j
lively than do ordinary windows.
Achieving Color Harmony
The masters of Grecian art con
sidered color and music to be very
i similar in that the harmony of both
| are spoiled by a discordant note.
. To prevent colors from clashing in
any form of painted decoration, the
1 addition of a small quantity of white
or black to each color used will aid
in bringing about a pleasing degree
of harmony.
Mass Production
Eggs in mass production seems to
be the aim of a chicken that helps
i supply the table of Mrs. Emma
Phelps in Kingston. On two occa
sions she has found three eggs in
one—a completely formed egg in
shell within a shell, plus a third egg
—according to Mrs. Phelps’ report
to the Ain’t Nature Wonderful Ed
itor. The big eggs are laid by «
| Rhode Island Red chicken at Kings
j ton.
