12 The New Oregon Statesman, Salem, Oregon, Sunday Morning, 'October U, 1928 FOR BUILDING German Architects Like to : Employ Newest Brick Says Authority Economical to Build With No Logs of Comfort An article anearinc In the June Issue of the Berliner Tageblatt. a German periodical, on dinner brick says, "the cry for color In the ' aspect of the town is fully met by the character of the clink er brick. Its color still ranges from yellow over pale pink, dark rd brown, blue and bluish black to Jet black. The clinker is the best medium of expression at the disposal of the architect who uses la as. a constructive material in numerous variations within in building complex to reveal his cre ative genius. A plastic formation of the fronts of clinker work is capable of producing the most pe culiar charms. One of the lead ing architects in Germany says that, "We have clinker mantle- pieces at present whicn represent true Jewels and are capable of comparing with the- costliest na tural stone.' . Modern Style Cited "Clinkers are chiefly used i 1 building construction and its re suscitation and present reputation have been chiefly due to the mod ern architectural styles. Owing to constantly rising demands tbe clinker manufacturing plants were called upon almost constantly t re-construct their plant to meet all those requirements. The clinker Industry is in possession of many automatic, highly effi ciefWAnd model plants, capable of producing individually up to 60 million clinkers per annum. The industry can be enlarged further, but locally only where suitable raw material exists for comemrcial production of clink era. Such clays must be free front all possible injurious particles and sals. Due to Chemicals The capacity of sintering or clinkering is due to the existence of certain fluxes and color oxides. For this heason the term clinker usually implies a deep burning color. With few exceptions only, like' Oldenburg, Nieder-Lausitz, nd parts of the Province of Han over where extensive deposits ex ist, clinker works are to be found tail over Germany. "Great care is devoted by the Industry to the question of form or the clinker. This necessitate a most careful selection and prep aration of the raw material with a iew to obtaining the highest de gree of plasticity and uniformity tn structure as well as a method of burning capable of attaining the best color efefcts to meet all architectural requirements." FEDERAL COPS 0. J. C. MM STRUCT E LIMINATION of the dining room seems to be growing in favor in the small home, especially where it is possible to provide a cozy breakfast nook suffi ciently large to accommodate four persons, the average number in a small family. There may be some danger in so doing that the prospective purchaser, in case one ever wants to sell, may not like such an arrangement, and to that degree the resale value may be impaired. But the idea is so new and has been so lit tle tried out that it is yet problematical. This little cottage is planned along that line but in every other respect can hardly' fail to meet the ap proval of the most particu lar buyer. It is built of common brick with a fire resistive rcof, the minimum of exposed woodwork, and is as firesafe as it is possible to build a house of this type. One is certain of a small upkeep .expense and tnay always have a feeling of security in leaving it. It i3 practically immune frcm communicated fires. While simply planned it !s yet attractive with an added air of sub stantiality. And the arrangement is excel lent.

From this entry the stair leads to the base ment. The other side of the house is taken up by the two sleeping rooms, each of good size and supplied with liberal closets, and the bath which is placed between them. A short hallway communicates with them from the living room. Each bedroom has two windows, one on either exposed side, and the bath is similarly lighted. The window ar rangement is ideal through out. just as the cottage as a whole is unusually strong in its appeal. This cottage is especially well adapted to a narrow lot, whether it be a corner or otherwise. Simple in it design it can be built at a very low cost and is the type of a small home that will always be in demand. It fits particularly well into a wooded surrounding, as this illustration shows, but can be made very attractive with: only moderate landscaping. i Association. Cleveland.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13. f AP) The theological schools of the Episcopal church and the sys tem of recruiting men for the ministry were criticized here at the general convention of the church by Bishop Paul Matthews, off New Jersye, the Rev. Leslie Glenn, national secretary for col lege work and other education alists of the church. The seminaries are "solely con cerned with the intellectual prog ress of their man and neglect their moral and spiritual sides. Bishop Matthew-, told a confer ence of the commission on the ministry, laying the blame for un satisfactory ministers at the doors of the schools. He said the bish ops were too anxious to get any type of candidate. Dr. Wallace E. Rollins, profes sor of church history at the Vir ginia seminary, said that on the other hand certain bishops had accepted men who had been dis charged from seminaries on in tellectual and moral grounds and actually ordained them in ad vance of their class mates.

That's getting to be a common experience. People who haven't known much about brick construction are amazed at its economy when the lifetime cost is con sidered. And with this economy they get the advantages of beauty, permanence, protection and distinction which brick walls give to any home. Have you noticed the increasing proportion of brick homes you see in driving about this city? It shows a trend that is significant.
