which is to be used exclusively In

jit It was nly a few ( years ago
i that a medium-sized tent was
sufficient to accomodate all the
j youngsters : exhibiting at the. state
; fair. ; The number, . however, has
! Increased at j such a rapid pace
that last year the finding of ade
, quate headquarters was a real
! problem. . Over 150 boys , and
! girls were entertained as. guests
of the state fair board at that
time, and it Is ' anticipated that
fully 200 hundred youngsters will
find roam in the new building this
i fslljj;.,!;,:..''. J, i '
I ; The building, which is situated
j Just north of the main entrance,
1 is a handsome structure of con
j Crete stucco finish, topped with a
red tile roof.! It is 60 by 100 feet
ground-floor plan and attains to a
height of three stories. It was
erected at a cost of $30,000. The
first 'floor Is divided into a large
atembly room, dining room, office
and small conference room, not
omitting the fully-equipped mo
dern kitchen. "Fire escapes have
been provided and everything
done ti Insure the safety ' and
comfort of the young 'folks who
are to occupyit tor the week, be
ginning September 28.
.Two. large dormitories, each 60
by 40 feet on the second floor are
repeated In similar apartments Vn
the third floor, with lavatories ad

!
The office will be occupied by.
J. E. - Calavan, Industrial field
worker,' of the staff of the state
department of education. The
oftly other adults to be allowed
the privileges of this building will
be those who accompany children
with their exhibits.
- Many other change and Im
provements are to be noted on
the grounds this year. One Im
pertant one: Is the converting of
the mala auditorium in the agri
cultural pavilion into exhibition
space. Into this will be rem'oved
both the art and textile depart
ments, thus linking on one floor
space the principal divisions of
Interest to women visitors. This
space which makes up the entire
south wing of the building Is of
sufficient size- and quality to allow
for bfgger exhibits more suitably
displayed. i
. The old ( textile building will
shortly ibe j removed to the north
part of the grounds, near the live
stock barns,' where Its particular
use will be decided ' later. The
room formerly devoted to the art
department will be ade to that
already preserved : for county ex

sary this year to acquire every
available foot of space in the agri
cultural building for the use of
the various counties. Renewed
interest is manifested owing to
the elimination of the competitive
scoring, a ; change that '"' was
brought about In compliance with
a request 'of the exhibitors them
selves, who came to realize the
inconsistency of placing one coun
ty against another far removed In
products and projects. . Hereafter
county exhibits , will be utilized
solely to show the nature of crops
and manufactured articles in the
various sections, of the state.
The Canadian government Is
increasing Its exhibit .noticeably
this year, sending a larger and
comprehensive' showing at an ex
penditure of fully $2,000. j
Officials are facing a problem
in the livestock division in finding
suf ficent space for ; all who want
to exhbit their finest stock. A

that has aroused keen interest Is

THE BERKELEY
A MUdon Type of Bungalow
Adaptable to Any Climate.
. Truly portraying the " atmosphere
of the land from which this-styla
of home originated, the architect
has, through the materials used,
made this home adaptable t to any
climate or eommunrty. The un
usual lines, the simple motif, the
eharm, make this an ont-of-the-er-dinary
home. .
The patio enclosed with j a high
wall, lends an air of exelueiveoeaa
yet without making it the predomi
nant note of the whole. The, high
balconied windows, the flat; roof of
colored concrete tile, coupled with
the -' other - unusual features make
this a home which would appeal to
the owner who desires the unusual.

In concrete, Cast in forms, the
builder finds the medium for true
expression of the type. Portland
cement stuceo on concrete block also
provides an ideal medium. Such
construction gives aa air of mas
siveness and solidity without de
tracting from the beauty. If erect
ed in localities haviag excessive heat
the hollow block, which provides a
dead air insulating space, would
help keep the house eool in the hot
test weather. This insulating fea
ture of concrete block construction
also aids in reducing the amount of
fuel needed to heat a house in eold
Weather and makes the home warmer.
The house would be stmple and eco
nomical to build, it would have prac
tically no upkeep expense, and it
would be a source of continual sat

Apartment Shortage in
City Being Eliminated
Possibility of a shortage of mo
dern apartments in the city this
fall Is being eliminated by the con
struction of two modern structur
es, one In the south and the other
in the north portion of the city.
The Fisher apartments on South
Commercial are beginning to take
shape. Concrete Is used in the
construction of the three story
building. Engle's apartment, on
North Capitol, Is of one-story with
a court. It is being constructed
with hollow tile walls and will
have a stucco exterior.
Gray Building Getting
New Coat of Grey Paint
Work of painting the' exterior
of the Gray - building, located on
the northwest corner of Liberty
and State, is well under way and
is adding materially to the ap
pearance of the building. The new
color scheme Is gray.

VALUE OF BUILDING !
HERE IS S350.000
Seventy-five New Homes
Are Under Construction;
Average $2000
An estimate compiled from sta
tistics gained at the city recorder's
office and the Chamber of Com
merce places the value of building
operations now in progress In the
city at approximately $330,000.
This amount includes the new
YMCA building but not the Catho
lic parish school and church, which
are . being erected at a cost of
about $125,900. . - i
The estimate also shows that
there are 75 houses in the course
of construction with a value desig
nated In the building permits of
$150,000. In estimating on the
basis of building permits, how
ever, it should be remembered the
permits are generally 25 per cent
below the actual cost of the build
ing to be erected. j t
The figures given above are only
on the construction of the build
ings, minus the interior work,
such as plumbing and wiring.
Were these figures to be taken
into consideration the value of
the constructlpn work now going
on would be Increased fey approxi
mately $100,000.
