This compact and weH-jarranged
colonial type : house hai proved
ideal for many small andlaverage
sized families. With BHgjht struc
tural modifications, a large-sized
room may be made available in
the upper story. Making the rear
portion of the house the same
width as the front would help to
solve the problem of closet space
and enlarge the downstairs bed- r
rooms without seriously;' disturb
ing the architectural beauty of the
exterior.

WASHINGTON, D. April'4
(By the Associated Press. .There
are now 320 cities In . the .United
States which have demarked the
area, within; their boundaries into
zones, setting territory apart for
exclusive," use as business, resi
dence, Industrial or -transportation
property," tie department of comr
merce reported recently in asum
mary of conditions affecting the
proposal. . ' - ', ; i
The most' marked progress was
made In this form of . city plan
ning during 1924, when 62 muni
cipalities adopted the system, fit
ting the zones to the particular
requirements of their localities.
"In adopting zoning ordinances,"
the department's' statement . said,
"these cities, towns and villages
have sought to protect home own
ers and other land owners in the
reasonable use of their, property.
Zoning seeks so to regulate the
use to which buildings may be
put, the' area of the lot' which
they may cover and their, height
in different sections of the city,
that the land in each district, may
be used for the purposes to which
it is best suited. v - ..vl

trated in the design shown above.
The house is simple but it unmis
takably has charm.
The intermediate roof or "hood," to which so
many of the delightful houses in the vicinity of
Philadelphia owe their appeal, is easily the dis
tinctive feature of the front elevation. It gives
an appearance of great breadth to an otherwise
perfectly square house, and at the same time im
parts an atmosphere of hominess. C , y . J ; " , ;
,With the great number of roofing materials,
and the. almost endless variety of face brick
color tones and textures, opportunity ;i3 af

window sills and the various belt courses! add
immensely to the interest of the wall surfaces.

house is kept close to the lot line on one side; a
