GOOD lines, attractive and
appearance, and cozy, well
roomy within are the outstanding features of
this exceptional bungalow fqr the family that
is small. It is' essentially a home for the
South, built first in Cal-
ifornia and wholly lack
ing any . . provision for
heating beyond; the open
grate in the living room,
more for ornament' than
utility. ,M '(--" ! -
This - fact I however,
does not preclude its be
ing built in l colder! cli
mates. Your contractor
can easily make the "nec
essary Changes . in ; its
construction jto provide
basement and heating
plant. The 'extra cost,
beyond the j excavating
and the .heating outfit,
would be QotaparatiYely
trivial. j j
Built low Jwith I the
floors practically upon
the ground 1 e v e 1, the
best landscaping results
would be obtained with
the dwarf varieties of shrubbery. And it
should be provided with a profusion of this.
That was contemplated in its designing, for
in California no home is complete other-

ot setting the tile has been com

end of the week the tile will have
been all set in the men's shower

As for the swimming tank it
self, a water test must be given be

even be started.,- .The tank- must
be, filled with water, and- allowed
to stand thus for ten days, to test,'
positively the worth of the tank's

the actual work of setting the tile
will take weeks, it is thought.
In the gymnasium , a : drinking

to it a sanitary cuspidor, in which

j The entire front of the bungalow is taken
up with living and dining rooms, both large
and well lighted, insuring maximum com
fort. From the dining room a hallway leads
to the two bed rooms in the rear, past kit
chen and bath and the
stairway to the storage
attic. The arrangement
is very convenient.
Directly in the rear of
the living room and ex
tending to the rear build
ing line of the house is
the patio. Around the
entire side of the house,
facing the patio, is a cov
ered porch to which one
has egress from living
room, hallway or .the rear
bedroom.
Patios are novelties in
the North where their
possibilities for adding to
home enjoyment and to
general living comfort
are yet to be discovered
and appreciated.
For the summer after
noon and evenings they

offer a retreat of both
privacy and relaxation where one may, at
very slight expense, surround himself with
all the many delights of an outdoor flower
garden. In old Mexico, home of the patio,

ELSiFJORE PLASTER
Rooms on . Mezzanine , Floor
Beingt Partitioned, Rail
ings Moulded
Plasterers have finished their
work in , the main auditorium of
the new Elsinore theater, under
construction on High street be
tween , State and Ferry street for
George Guthrie, owner of the Ore
gon theater.
Most of the plastering work in
the front of the building has been
done, although thesintrlcate mold
ing necessary is expected to take a
week or two.
Rooms on the front of the mez
zanine floor are being partitioned
and plastered. The men's rest
room will be in this part of the
theater. The plaster railings from
the mezzanine floor to the room to
the rear of the main balcony have
been molded.
Work of decorating the interior
has been started in full swing.
The ceiling and walls of the main
balcony is being finished in veri-
colored tints, giving a massive mo
saic effect. The scratch plaster
coat takes the color scheme in a
highly attractive way.
Panel work of the railings of
the main and mezzanine balconies
Is highly eleborate. The panels
have been decorated to represent
coats of arms and are finished in
various and bright colors. The
entire decorative scheme is in
keeping with the general gothic
design of the theater.
Several units of the great organ
have- been lnstaled in the roomy
organ chamber, which is built just
over, the front top of the stage.
The remainder of the units will
be installed this week. The large
pipe that will convey the air to the
organ has already been installed.
For finishing the walls of the
room just to the rear of the main
balcony buff color has been used.
Decoration of the remainder of the
front will not be started until the
plaster work is completed.

Broadcast Shaw Play as
Theaters Decline "Risque?'
UONDON. A Bernard Shaw
play has ' been broadcast with
great success to the. British listening-in
publicr-not one of his long
talky plays, but a bit of tomfool
ery Shaw wrote for a theatrical
garden party 20 years ago.
"Passion, Poison and Petrifica
tion" is the title of the extrava
ganza. When the heroine. Lady
Magnesia, is asked by her maid,
"Why do you not undress, get in
to bed and end all this hubbub?"
She replies, in distressed tones:
"How can I, Phyllis, with all these
people listening.
It is said! to be the only Shaw
play that has never been prodnced
in America.; ' Not even the Thea
ter Guild will risk its reputation
on it. i

Venerable Press Relic
Lodged la College Hall
SEATTLE. A printing preas
built 125 years ago by Adam Ka
mage is a prized relic in the Uni
versity of Washington museum
here. This press printed the first
newspapers in four Pacific coast
cities -Monterey, Cal., Portland,
Ore., Olympia and Seattle, Wash.,
and gave to San Francisco, then
called Yerba Buena, its second
publication.
In 1815 the Ramage was ship
ped to Mexico from New York
City. From Mexico it went to
Monterey in 1834 and was used to
print official orders of the Mex
ican government. Twelve years
later it printed Monterey's first
newspaper. ; ,
By 1847 it was, turning out the
Star in San Francisco and in 1850
It had gotten as far north as Port
land.' . In 1852 - the: ' Columbian
was being run from ; the Ramage
in Olympia. Next it went to Se
attle where its last useful days
were spent Jn printing the Gaeette.
Although it has seen 90 years
of active service the press still Is
in good condition mechanically.
