In cities where there are restrictions on materials be cause o f fire hazards, brick is the ma terial most used for the reason that •» Is available in practically all sections o f the country and can be laid up in m an; attractive designs The house shown in the accom(Mtn> Ing illustiation Is o f the Dutch culm Dial type and is constructed wholly ot brick. However, for lLose who want a less costly method o f .onstruction, the house can he con struct»! o f frame and the outside walla o f brick rent-er with some type o f Insulating hoard in between. This Is a very popular type o f construction In cities now and the result is that tl e owner has a very a t tractive substantial house at a coat less than that of a house of solid brick walls. The illustration gives the Idea that this Is an unusually large home. How ever. It is only 24 feet deep and 3u feet wide. It contains six good size rooms besides the sun parlor adjoin Ing the living room on the first floor and the bathroom on the second floor As in all colonial homes, the en trance Is In the center o f the house and leads into a hail cut o f which run the stairs to the second floor. In this design the living room is at the left ami the dining room and kitchen a' Need for Fire-Stopping Ended by Mineral Wood Necessity for Installing fire stopping between a brick veneer exterior and the sbea.hlng of a wood frame house can be eliminated through the use of an incombustible mineral sheathing Such a sheathing provides Its own Brest op on the Inside o f the structure Nor can a blaze travel far up the sir spare between the brick and the sheathing because of the facing ot incombustible materials on both sides In laying up brick veneer over min eral sheathing the brick are tied In with metal ties, which are nailed into the sheathing with on more difficulty than the same ties are nailed Into wood.

Sees Higher Plane of Living in New Homes Improved living coudi'ionx are d e a r ly shown In the const ruction of new homes In p radically all |>ana of the United Stales and *he installation of additional conveniences, reports James 8. Taylor, acting chief o f the division o f building and housing o f the United Wash Galvanized Iron With Vinegar; Then Paint I f the galvanized Iron has lieen ex posed to the weather for six months or more it needs no previous treatment before painting. New galvanized Iron, however, should be given a good wash with strong vinegar before applying any paint. The first coat of paint should he red lead, which is the best known protective material for all ex posed Iron surfaces. Over this coal o f red lend paint yon may apply a white lend paint In Sufficient number o f coats to cover the bright red color. Generally, two coats o f white lead paint will do this. The white lead can be tinted to any color desired. Common Attic Offers Many Possibilities T h e common attic offers many possibilities for charming arrangement and use as a supplementary sewing or rending room, guestroom, playroom or den. Its Irregular celling, low walls and odd com ers make It d e ll*lit«illy easy to furnlxb attractively and quaintly. the right. The living room Is 11 feet by 22 feet. In the center ts an open fireplace on either side o f which are french doors lending to the »unroom which Is 8 feet by 18 feet. This ar rangement adds considerably to the size and attractiveness o f the living room. Owners who have homes with a sunroom adjoining the living room say that the sunroom is the most at tractive feature of the house and it 1« used more than the living r.smi when (he fam ily is alone: Th e dining room Is at the front and is 11 feet by 12 feet 9 Inches. The kitchen Is large being 8 feet 6 Inches by 13 feet. Off It at the rear Is a breakfast room. b feet by 10 feet. m ilch can also be renched through the dining icom. Upstairs there are three bedrooms each a corner room, and the bath room. The sizes o f these rooms and their location in relation to the up stairs ball are shown In the floor plana. This Is an unusually good design for a colonial type house. Its appearance is attractive and the brick makes it a substantial home. The balcony over the porch and breakfast room at one end and over the sunroom at the other are good features. States Department >f Commerce His report is based on a survey regarding modern trends In home building Just made by the housing division in 38 American cities. The fcullt-ln garage has descended from the very expensive house and Is now found In the medium price field On streets where there Is a consider able amount of automobile traffic fam Hies are living more and more In the back o f their houses. A sun parlor at the rear o f the house Is fairly common and the real living r< om is no longer a curiosity. Standard Slate Roof Not Heavily Framed Pitched roofs are very easily cov ered with slates. This type of mate rial Is particularly well suited to * wet climate, as the weight >f the roof covering preventa It from being easily tom off in stormy weather. It has sometimes been stated that this heavier roof covering requires heavy roof construction. This Is not true when slate o f the eoramorcia’ stands-d thickness Is used. Lintel Door The straight lintel doorway prove« capable o f many variations. Its oaken lintel can receive a delightful bit of carving or an Inscription. A quaint motto or the owner's Initials and date give a very intimate personal touch. Its quiet location at the top o f the house, Its airiness and its natural In formality are other advantages. In this day o f small hoaxes and large costs. It is regrettable to think that there is even one nttic anywhere that isn't serving some good purpose. An attic in need o f finishing has a useful friend In wallhourd. This material will transform cracked, soiled or otherwise marred walls and cell ings Into a surface entirely present able. It Is an Inexpensive sanitary material that Is easily anil quickly applied, ant) that takes almost any surface finish. It has the further ad vantage o f being water-proofed and fire-resisting. The waste space In the nttlc may thereby he readily convert ed Into usable quarters— dry, cheer fill, comfortable rooms. Build Upon a Rock The admonition o f (he ancient wise man to build upon a rock is valuable nnd practical advice. It ia not always |M«sible to follow It literally, hut with our present day knowledge, adequate foundation may he built regardless o f soil conditions. »T A R T I l l u s t r a t i o n s b jr Ir w in «'.>!>> tl*ht M y e r s hr ll o M « M.-rr (it (S> WNU MM.'< mouth in «lx weeks Best thing all the way round.
