The narrow cor nice, steep roofs and flas dormers are typical of the English design. The small entry, with adjoining coat closet serves all purposes of eoavenienco. The living room is spa cious and affords plenty of wall space for furniture placement. The stair way to the second story is planned to occupy a minimum of cubic footage tad also affords an easy grade en trance to the basement. The kitchen and breakfast nook are exceptionally light and airy and are ia direct connection with all parts of the house. The second story contains two good sized bed rooms, each vitb ample closet space. The demgn will appeal to the per son owning a site located among less attractive bomes as it is of good height and its pleasing appearance will make it one of the show places of the neighborhood. The plan calls for S40 square feet of floor area. Two sets of blue prints and specifications of this and other homes will be furnished at nom-; iaai cost upon application at Walters : Buhong Lumber company. ' j OUSE RENTS Will OP.

(ht th contrary. it.ded, loans for this purpose are available in large nmotmts in practical!- all retiofis of the I'nifM States. To some extent the prediction of a scarcity of money i'str new building's ni baed poit a itn!nr to!'iinilrsitfliidiftg to the ef fect that the funds advanced for con struction enterprises are in the cur-r-nt phrase 'i'krd np," or with drawn from further bw !n industry or rn'le. Arguments, in fa"t, founded on this sM.hipioo have be-n a-lvan-fd to support the contention that the supply of new buildings cid not be expect ed to catch up with the constantly mereviK demand. While It is true that making loans for building const ruction subtract thfir nrimint from urrent funds seek ing investment, it bv no means fdiows that any considerable Mreenfife of the amounts I-sn'l bcn;e "frozen credits," in the sne thnt they dimin ish the oluiae of money m cirila tion or depo in th bark.
