narrow the range of posnible pur

also keep, in mind the average canons

have had the experience of building a

to find the completed product too un

The home builder will do well to
consider carefully the future trend
of the neighborhood which be selects
for his dwelling. Jty choos ng a
neighborhood which is grow.ng in ita
real estate values, it frequently hap
pents that the appreciation in the
value of the land will offset tbe de

OUTFIT KITCHEN
WINDSOR - ON - THE - THAMES,
April II OP) Almost the last jour
ney away from Buckingham palace
made by Queen Mary, known as Eng
land's most "housewifely" queen, be
fore departing with Vhe king for hia
.Mediterranean cruise, waa a one -day
visit to Windsor castle to aee
that the spring cleaning had been
stsrted in proper order, ao that every
thing would be spick and span for hr
return toward the end of April.
Incidentally, the queen brought with
her to the castle, her summer home
and one of the world 'n most magnifi
cent structures, a number of. lnbor
saving devices which she had bought
herself the day before at an ideal
hnme exhibit in London. One of these
was a new kind of knife cleaner, the
queen examining the apparatus and
making several inquiries as tri wheth
er the, dealer was certain that the
polishing roller would not harm cer-
any other form of wealth-could give.) tain old fashioned knives of very deli
cate make which were used
tiomi ago in the kitchens of Wind!
Another exhibit which interested
queen keenly waa an improved fco
of mop. She watched the demon
tion with interest, and even took t
but ahe did not buy. much to the
appointment of the dealer.
Economy, however, isethe t
word nt Windsor as well as the r ..
palace in London. Under the t,Z
ent regime there is no encouraging
for wastefulness such as obtain
the days of other rulers. 1
One of the favorite stories am,(r
residents of Windsor concerns gUhj
Victoria and is known as "The
cuses and the sentinel." Soon ifj
her ascension to the throne, gU("r
Victoria was (flighted by the api,'
