THE CREE DESIGN AMI J
I SPECIALLY suited to a narrow lot this
little cottage, English in type, will al
wavr nrove to be a haven of comfort
and convenience for a small family. It is one
of those exceptions in the really small home
where is found good architecture, excellent
interior arrangements, in
stant, appeal, yet moderate
cost. It is built of common
brick in running bond, with
the window sills also of
brick laid on edge. Like
wise the porch steps are of.

at its best. A wooded set
ting would be most desirable but it is far
from being imperative. Here only the usual
everyday shrubs were used but a very pleas
ing effect was attained. A few evergreens,
tastefully placed, will prove their worth in
completing the ensemble.

In its interior arrangement it is also a de
cided departure from the usual. From the
living porch one enters a cozy hallway from
which the stairs lead to the second floor. One
may go directly into the "kitchen from the
hallway, and thence into the dining room
without having to pass
through the living room at
all. Or he may go directly
through the living room.
Both of these rooms are
large and well lighted, the
living room being supplied
with a broad open grate.
The lower floor plan is very
convenient.
Two sleeping rooms, each
having two windows, am
ple closets, and being of
good size, are on the upper
floor, together with the
bath and another small
room, lighted by a dormer window, which
could be used for either a bed room, sewing
room or children's play room. All the avail
able space is utilized and the home is really
very complete. It should be very attractive
to the man of moderate means.

FIELDS TELLS HI
EW VOGUE STARTS
Chrysler Combines Ensemble
Into Coordinated Whole,
in "75" and "85"
In their new "75" and "65",
Chrysler executives bellere they
hare Introduced an entirely new
style which will be the vogue of
the future for all motordom. J. E.
Fields, vice-presltfent in charge of
iaus, points out that every line,
arc, oral and curve has been
blended Into a body ensemble that
ha never been achieved in any
other car. Thorough study of the
Greek theory of dynamic symmet
ry, plus known supplementary
modern laws, has resuluted In a
co-ordination of the cars visual
picture that is absolute, he says
a result in motor car beauty and
symmetry never before achieved.
Chrysler body dosign experts
have devoted the greater part of
three years in their affort to over
come difficulties that heretofore
have proved Insurmountable. They
have combined, for the first time,
the entire ensemble of a motor car
into a co-ordinated whole. During
all this period they have worked
with the idea in
prodncing a car that would for
ever re-style all motor car styles,
giving the public a freshness and
beauty In design that would be
lasting.
"There is no more reason why
a motor car should lack any of
the virtues of gracefulness, ar
tistry or beauty than there is why
fine furniture should lack them,"
says Mr. Fields. "With. definite
and thorough understanding of
the basic fundamentals, there is
no limit to the achievements pos
sible to body designers.
"Chrysler engineers, in the new
"75" and "65". have attained a
goal In beauty, style and artistry
that is absolute. It has given the
upublic something finer in artistry
than has ever been available here
tofore because it has, first of all,
gained a definite and thorough un
derstanding of body designing's
basic fundamentals, and has fol
lowed these principles through to
an accomplishment that is brand
new and wholly correct.
"That Is why I say that Chrys
ler has achieved a new style which
will be the vogue of all motordom
during the years to come."

Sensible Solution to Costly

a lot of money. One thinks in

By means of color alone there can
be a complete transformation, and
paint has been an important me
dium in introducing it in decora
tion. No one would think of buying a
new car because the old one was
somewhat scratched (that is if the
motor were good and the lines in
fashion.) It goes to the shop for
refinlshlng. nad continues to be
serviceable and smart for at least
another season.
And so with a room. If the
furniture is standing on all four
legs, not too ugly and ungraceful,
it has possibilities. The color you
use in redecoratlon will determine
whether the room is a success or
not. much more than the style of
furniture. A warm, cheerful col
or scheme can hide a multitude of
sins, by virtue of pleasing the eye,
which will investigate little furth

modern magic of interior decora

Pleasine color effects cost no

color to the floors by means of a

types is adaptable to paint.
It Is fascinating to experiment
with color In your home, and with
the proper knowledge, or natural
feeling for the individual charac

charming and delightful results.
With the pastel shades, for ex

colors suggest quiet. For Instance,
with yellow, there is a feeling of
sunlight. It is an excellent color

of both light and coolness.
A bedroom is a good place to
start with as color may there be
used in profusion without a too

be well to follow the few simple
rules. Select your colors accord

color scheme of the adjoining

another color should relieve, and
several values of a third color
should supply accent.
From the experience gained in
decorating the bedroom you can
then progress further until the liv

are gradually transformed with
color schemes relating to the
room's purpose. Not only does
paint impart beauty to the surface
on which it is used, but it also

Political Crisis Passing Off
Without Serious Conflict,
Word
MEXICO CITY. July 27.
(AP) Prospects for a peaceable
solution of the political crisis re
sulting fro mthe assassination of
President-Elect Obregon, appear
ed brighter today.
Obregon leaJers voiced their
confidence that President Calles
was making every effort to trace
down those responsible for the
slaying and to bring, them to pus
tlce. Aaron Saenz, governor of
Neuva Leon, and one of the ac
knowledged chiefs of the Obregon
followers, declared that his parti
sans would support the president.
Governor Saenz has been men
tioned as the most likely candi
date for the provisional presiden
cy when President Calles term
expires December 1.
Hlssupport of Calles therefore
is considered significant and has
revived the idea that the presi
dent may succeed himself provis
ionally if a way can be found un
do rthe constitution.

LOS ANGELES. July 27.
(AP) A Janitor's story of peep

Dyer to see the pastor and a wom

mony in the court airing of the
battle for control of the Wllshlre
avenue congregational church.
The Janitor, Frederick Murray,
;ald he was passing the door of
the study one evening and finding
the door ajar, peeped in and saw
i woman lying on the sofa. He
said the pastor of the church was
sitting at her feet with his hand
on her dress and was leaning over
her. The witness testified that he
knew Mrs. Dyer and that the
woman on the couch was not the
pastor's wife.
During the day's trial session,
through which one faction, led by
the board of trustees of the
church, Beeks to oust Dr. Dyer and

PLAN NO. 405
With a ground space of 2S by
30 feet, today's house plan is
one ideally adapted for a small
town lot or for use as a cot
tage at the beach.
While but one bedroom is pro
vided for in the plan, a wall
bed In the living room Is an
auxiliary chamber for emergen
cy use.
One of the features of the house
is its general compactness in
the arrangement of the kitchen.
This room Is 8 ft. 6 in. by 9 ft
and is designed for use with the
minimum amount of walking
by the housewife. It will be no
ticed that the sink Is directly
under the window where ample
light is provided for such cul
inary operations as are con
ducted in the sink or on the
adjacent drain boards.
The dining alcove is adjoining
the kitchen and at the front of
the house. The kitchen, dining
alcove and enclosed back porch
with a built-in ice box, form
one unit of the house, a unit
which is separated from the rest
of the rooms.
The sets of blue prints of this
plan will be furnished at nom

The ability of a Franklin air
cooled engine to function perfect

a water-cooled engine would have

Airman set a new world's record
for a transcontinental round trip
between Los Angeles and New
York City, according to Cannon
Ball Baker, well known cross
country driver who piloted the
Franklio on its record breaking
run.
"Before I started the 6,692 mile
grind from coast to coast and re

a heat indicator." Baker said. "At
one point of the terrific grind.
after I had driven the Franklin
several thousand miles, we were
crossing the desert wastes of Ari
zona. The heat was blazing at
US and the temperature of the
engine mounted. As the engine
heat continued to Increase, it was
noticeable that the efficiency of
the air-cooled power plant became
more pronounced and it speeded
on mile after mile through the
sandy stretches.
"Finally, the heat indicator reg

water-cooled engines which must
work below 212 degrees, the boil

only effect this heat had on the
Franklin engine was to bring mi
