Biltins in This Harmonious
and Happy Kitchen Are
Very Efficent
A beautiful little kitchen in
orchid and green, well-lighter,
and finely built, would yet de
mand drudgery immeasurable
wtre it not for the thousand
and one aids conveniently ar
ranged in this vital center of
the, Ben Lomond Park Home.
The effect of a harmonious
and happy kitchen is the,re
suit of satisfactory designing
of the eauipment and fittings
Believing that this work can
best be done under the atten
tiMi and HUDervision of de
signers an dcraftsmen who
hve every facility to work
oit their ideas and apply their
ability to the greatest degree
and to make the most of their
oftnortunities. the builders
have incorporated into this
truly modern house the Peer

name, which is a name well-known
among the builders of better class
hqmes.

DATI
.ilLittle usually is said about the
foundations of houses except that
they are good or poor as the case
may be; little else can be said.
Yet there are certain things which
makes a foundation good or poor
and experts pronounce the foun
dations and basement of the Ben
Lomond Park Home of excellent
construction.
Dependability is the first quali
fication of the concrete contractor,
without this building could never
b safely constructed. Ability to
dd the work required rapidly and
well is not to be overlooked, nor is
the appearance of and satisfac
tion in the finished piece of work
loj be underestimated.
ivTaking these facts into consid
eration, Delmar L. Bond, builder
of the Bend Lomond Park Home,
selected for the concrete work a
mjan whose reputation in Salem is
among the highest, John Koeneke.
Mr. Koeneke is : probably best
kaown In Salem for -his. work n
Dimerous fine apartment houses'
of; the city Including the Royal
jurt Apartments, the Hazeldorf,
Ffaher's, and others.
'robably the most noticeable
features ot the concrete work in
tlv Ben Lomond Park Home is the
etjjen trend of the telture. which
shows no weak points, and the un
usually smooth finish of the base
ment floor. Built upon solid
foundations even a house upon a
hill does not fall.
IE III KITCHEN
. I
.Beautiful, sanitary, lasting,
and altogether practical is ' the
modern tile kitchen. Its easily
cleaned surfaces radiate cheer and
cleanliness, while- its fine, clear
colorings carry out an appropriate
design.
' .The orchid and green color
scheme In the- kitchen ot the Ben
Lomond Park Home takes its note
from the tile work around the
sink. Tha new four-Inch size tile
has been used to work ont a eon
v ventlonal floral design. The sink
appointments are in the same ma-

terial. a matching shade of orchid.' (
This work wa done by the
Willi ard Tile company, which does
much of the tile work in th fine
homes of the .valley. Wllliard uses
only tile from associated compan
ies thus guaranteeing a high qual
ity of working material as only
those concerns which produce tile
measuring up to set standards.
Archie Free is
Not Neophyte
On Home Job
Whatever or whomever the Ben
Lomond Park Home may be intro
ducing to the people of Salem
Archie Free, D. L. Bond's fore
man, is not one of them; for Mr
Free has lived in Salem and vicin
ity for 2( years. Only during the
last eight of those years, however,
has Mr. Free been in the building
business.
For a year and a half he has
worked with Mr. Bond, who select
ed him as absolutely capable of
the type of work which he desired
the Ben Lomond Park Home to
represent.
The finished rouse has proved
the wisdom of this choice; E. J
Reasor, painter, says fhe work
manship is the finest that he ever
put paint over, and Reasor has
been doing interior finishing in
better-class homes of Salem .

SHANGHAI, June 22 (AP)
The central executive commit
tee of the nationalist government
today decided t'J remove the ad
ministration of radio development
in China from the national con
struction commission, which is a
special body created to assist in
the modernization of China to the
ministry of communications. The
ministry has been fighting for
months to gain control of radio in
China.
This transfer of authority has
given rise to speculation about the
fate of the radio corporation of
America's contract with the na
tionalist government.
This contract was signed last
November through the construc
tion commission. But the national
ist governor and the radio corpor
ation contracted to establish direct
wireless conmmunication by
Shanghai and San Francisco. The
radio corporation of America fur
thermore agreed to assist the Chi
nese in building a direct trans
pacific station at Shanghai, the
company supplying the equipment.
This station was to be inauguratd
at the beginning of 1930.
The agreement specified that
the government and radio corpor
ation would divide equally the
trans-Pacific radio revenues. The
ministry of communications has
opposed the construction commis
sion since its establishment.

BROCADED WALL
IT IRE FAD
New Soft Finish Thing of
Joy Forever; Fisher
Expert in Work
The modern brocaded wall Is
not a mere fad; it is a thing of
beauty and practicality. In this
new soft finish the wall loses all
the bleak dreariness of bare eal
somine and yet retains its numer
ous happy features, such as easy
cleaning, re-tinting, lasting fresh
ness, and permanent finish.
In a pattern absolutely unlike
that in any other Salem home (in
fact, in one worked out especially
for the Ben Lomon Park Home)
the walls of the new little house
on the hill are furnished.
All of the interior stucco work
as well as tha t of the gabled
front and In the doorway is the
work of E. Fisher, formerly of
California.
In and around Hollywood and
Los Angeles Mr. Fisher made him
self a very popular plasterer fam
ous for his unique wall finishes
and especially for bis ability in
brocaded stucco. work. Nor has he
failed to become well-known in
Salem, many of whose finest
homes are graced with walls by
Fisher.
Not one place in the Ben Lo
mond Park Home has his brush
faltered; each stroke is in its pro
per length and weight; one i3
pleased indeed at creamy walls
with mottled finishes.
The tinted walls in sandpapered
plaster used in the bedrooms in
conjunction with colored enameled
woodkwork are not lacking in ar
tistry; careful mixing and appli
cation have acquired for them a
smooth, even finish such as is
most desirable but very difficult
to achieve.

Natural Slope of Hill Used by Iufer
ARTIFICIAL IDEA WANE
"Styles in landscaping have
changed greatly during the last
ten years," says Ernest Iufer,
landscape gardener for the Ben
Lomond Park home. "People used
to set plants In rows; now they
Bet them in, groups. They used to
scatter flowers, shrubs, or tbees
anywhere; now they plan1 their
arrangement. The artificial- is no
longer desirable; natural' beauty,
which has always been more love
ly is sought after."
' In carrying out this idea whffh
is not a mere theory but a fact ac
cepted by landscapers the world
over, Mr. Iufer has made use of
the natural slope of the bill upon
which the Ben - Lomond Park
home is built.
A slightly winding walk with
curving flag-stone steps leads to
the gabled doorway. Blossoming
rock gardens, not the rock piled
on rock kind completely .covered
with plants but rough brown
stones lying in natural postions
with little alpine flowers spring
ing up in the soil between, border
this little path. One large rock,
with a natural hollow has been
placed to form a bird bath.
Later In the summer a green
lawn will stretch up to meet the
upper drive which runs around
the hill at the rear ot the house.
Here at the edge of the drive wild
shrubs mock orange, Oregon
grape, currant and quince thrive
while the flagged walk at the
front becomes a little path with
flagged steps still bordered with
rocks.
Back Yard Charming
The atmosphere of the green
gabled house set on a hillside is
intensified and made even more
charming by the beauty of its gar
den and not the least of its beauty
is the backyard. But then, as Mr.
for Kitchen
Iufer says, "People are living
more in their backyards today,
than ever before, so why not do
away with the pile of tin cans and
the ash-pile, which have so long
marred its attractiveness and
plant some of those things which
made the front lawn livable!":
Ernest Infer, who Is a gradu
ate of the Art and Trade school
of Berne. Switzerland, and who
practced his profession for several
years on the continent, finds little
difference in landscaping prob
lems the world over alothugh
styles in landscaping everywhere
have changed greatly during the
last ten years."
Priceless Batehani aGrdens
For a number of years he has
been one of the leading landscap
ers of the Pacific northwest, and
only recently has purchased aBte
ham's Floral gardens on the west
side of the river where he has de
veloped a display yard.
Mr. Iufer specializes in alpine
plants and perrennials of which
he has the largest collection in
Oregon outside of Portland. He
is especially well-known in Salem
and vicinity for his rock gardens,
pool and waterfall work, and the
rustic tea houses, arbors, In which
he also specializes.
