L0 BETTER IS
n. ERNEST McCUIXOUOH
(Join bick in memory a number
i rprs to the time when the writer
jrnccs with clients who employed
kin to desifrn homf J. Those eiper
Ljces were duplicated by other men
lo the m line nt ,vork "D1
beine duplicated today wherever peo
, lire who wish to have homes of
iljr own and find men who draw
pl.ni for housea.
The client never wishes to five
rfdit to the man who draws the
plins. Oh no. He and his wife have
Leased books of plans that were
Iilvrrtif cd in popular magazines, or
which they found advertised perhaps
in builders' periodicals which they
ourchased on newsstands for the pur
pone of hunting for such advertise
ments. After 8tudyinK the books for many
eretinss and failing to find the plan
,,t embodies their ideas of what the
irfrtl home nest should be, they make
iketchrs, which they of course feel
lre complete and take them to "a
nan to draw them so a contractor can
fin understand them."
The first shock experienced by the
client is that administered by the
man who draws plans," when he re
fuses to cosider that the drawings arc
complete enough for him to put on
the necessary finishing touches for
five or ten dollars. .
It is thought to be a terrible thing
(nr him to think he is entitled to five
per cent of the cost after all the real
work hns been done and all he has
to do is' to sit down in his convert
ible office and draw it out on a piece
of paper work that the client knows
he just enjoys doing because he is
,0 interested in Buch things.
Very often the man who intends to
build purchases for n.few dollars a
let of drawings for a house that al
most suits him, mnrks changes on it
with a pencil and sends it to the man
from whom he bought it, with a re
quest for an estimate of what it will
eost to make the changes. The re
ply is generally disconcerting and a
hunt is made for a contractor who
will undertake the job.
The writer had a few clients who
were willing to pay him his regular
fpe and he can testify that he earned
It several times over before the job
wis off his hands. Finally he had
to give up such work as it did not
pay. Before doing so however he fil
ed a minimum sum for doing work on
buildings costing less than a certain
amount, figuring the usual percent
lie, on buildings of more value.
The effect of charging the higher
fee was to make clients increasingly
exacting because they wished to make
Mm enrn what he was getting, andj
he hint to nivc un low and medium-1
eost residence design because it dirl ;
not pay.
Has Free Hand
In this line of work the ''builder
irehitcct" hns. a free field and the
interest taken today in such buildings
by builders' periodicals, women's mng
liines, lumber, brick, cement, tile and
plaster manufacturers has produced
many crcditnble designs from which a
choice mny be mnde.
The "builder-architect" however
does not have the free hand and de
lightful experience that might be im
plied by the stntement that many
litnhlo dpRiens are in existence. It
i. ..i i,.f. o 'flimf finds h4 idea, t
house in any book lie consults, name
chanpfs must bo mado and thp "build -
M-arrhitrrt" finds, as does his client
that these books arc more often in
spirational than directional.
Were they followed nlways. then
the "builder-nrchiteet would hnnii)
be .interested in learning anything 1 cussion. Stabler, in an address de
hnnt the principles of good plnnning. I live red recent!. nrfore the American
With the advent of the Architects' j Construction council, declared that

tie jirfliitnr-tnre and neriodicals now htirpaii to nass on homo construe-
fmploy only architects of good stand-
ing. men of real ability, to prepare
their stock plans.
Fee I Topic I
Sine- few clients can be made to I
understand that a designer should be (
nam a fee laree enougu to cover nw
perviees and since there is need for
the general public to be educated to
the appreciation of good architecture,
this production of stock plans is an
excellent thing.
With thia flood of plans the "builder-architect"
has on excellent oppor
tunity to cultivate a rare taste in the
planning and design of homes, pro
vided he seriously studies the plans
he sees. In this wny, and in this
way alone, ran be understand in time
why some exteriors . look very well,
Rome not so well and Bome are bad.
For such a man some hints may be
f value in helping him look for good
points and he will thus he able to
rve his community by helping to
cultivate taste. He must get away
from the (Jus and Harry ways of do-j
in? business. In which a contractor
sirees to build a house and the owner
it merely because he gets
"rtain number of rooms for a cer-!
tain number of dollars.

Economy Plays Unusually Big Part in Planning of the Smaller Structure; Arch
way in Interior Proves to be One o' Finer Features
Economy as well as beauty of de
sign ruled in planning thia five room
bungalow. The plastered archway be
tween the living and dining rooms
serves a double purpose of emphasis
ing spaciousness and enhancing avail
able heating and lighting facilities.
The kitchen is so arranged as to
save steps for the busy mousewife.
The adjoining nook is of generous size
and will serve admirably for an aver
age family.
The central hall, with openings to
the two bedrooms, bath and stairway
is a convenience which any housewife
will appreciate. The bedrooms ore
equipped with wardrobes, which oc
cupy less space thnn the average clo
set. Floor area of the house totals 104
square feet. Two sets of blue prints
and specifications will be furnished at
the Walters Bushong Lumber com
pany. weather by enclosing walls. In dif
ferent latitudes certain styles of
structures are favored. It is there
fore very bad taste to combine in one
building features from several differ
ent countries.
For example, n round tower on n
building does not go well with a
square tower. They should bolh he
round or square. 'There should he
a definite relation between the sizes
as well. Incidentally a tower is out
of place on a wooden house, except
perhaps as a cupolu near the center,
never as a cupola terminating n side
wall. A square cupoln seems most
fitting for a wooden building.

Ninety per cent of the residential ,

said. Institutions which lend funds
for the financing of building may
e.xert a great influence ag.iinst poor

he pointed out.
