Drapery may be used effectively
here, at the same time serving a
utilitarian purpose In screening those
passing on the balcony from too plain
a view from the room below.
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.

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.
King Edward, of En eland, bestowed f
upon them the British MedaJ ot j

In thlr first American ;our. some
years ago, the president invited them
to stng at the Whit House, in
Washington, and bestowed upon
them the first, and possibly the only,
presidential medal ever given to a
musical organization.

WASHINGTON The United Statrs
supreme court will soon ko Into It
summer vacation a period extending
from June until mtdCvtooer.
Some people probably envy the lot
ot the Justices who are able to enjoy
such a long spell away Irom their
Jobs. If they do. it is because they
are uulamltlar with how the court
works.

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.
