The unusual shape of the living room will result in an arrangement of furniture not at all ordinary. Hap pily, the windows, which should pro vide abundant ventilation in sum mer, also give views of the garden from three different angles. If the kitchen and garage are placed on the north side, the Impor tant rooms downstairs will get the sun from the south. The convenient ly arranged kitchen has a large win dow area and the dining room Is cross-ventilated. ... There are three bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs. The two end bedrooms are large and have win dows on two sides and one side of the small bedroom is a large bay window. Such a house, preferably located on a lot 75 by 125 feet.- would cost between $8,000 and SI 0,000, depend tng on local conditions. Atr u: i-n, i - ..

LONG-RANGE FORECASTING Forecasting drouths and seasons with abnormal rain and j snowfall as far as twenty-five years in the future is possible, according1 to A. F. Gorton, of the Scripps Institute of Ocean ography in California. In this long-range forecasting he would use weather rec ords of the past sixty years, and the knowledge that weather runs in cycles. He believes the trends of precipitation could be. worked out through systems based on the Peter's Cathedral. On their first European tour they brought back I over 50 medals, decoration and diplo- j mas that were bestowed upon them.

Knight- of Columbus In Rome, filed protest against closing ox three . playgrounds operated by that organ- I ization. j He asked Ambassador Garrett to ! pass the protest on to the Italian government and to demand an ex- ; planation for what he called "an t unjustified and unjustifiable ac tion." He said he had not been Informed as to when the playgrounds would be permitted to reopen and he had been obliged to discharge 25 play ground directors. Virtually a Consistory The meeting at the Vatican was virtually a consistory such, as Is called only on extraordinary occa sions or for the creation of cardi nals. Por two hours the pontiff and the cardinals discussed the situation. Several of the cardinals were said to have encouraged continuance of ! the pope's firm stand. j It was said the pontiff told his advisors he had no desire to break the. concordat with Italy but he wished -the Italian government would regard that 'agreement not as ' one which, could be violated by elth- 1 er party but as an International treaty subject to the regulations of International law. j If Italy- takes that view, it was said, the Vatican will not think: off renouncing the concordat. I Prospect of a settlement of the ' strained relations . was reached as :. Italy and the papal state stood at the crossroads of an open -rupture. The situation was regarded by some Vatican authorities as a de facto severance ef diplomatic relations. Tenseness Aggravated The tenseness of the situation was aggravated by the explosion of four bombs near Catholic institutions in Bologna Saturday night. Though no damage was done, a Carabiniere brigadier was killed and two per- sons were Injured by fragments. .ps! ; .!-.!-? :sr-tns tBv' sTndav That he' wou d TnvS.
