The Koglish type house shares
equal favor with Colonial designs
anions homobuiMers and is galoins
steadily ia popularity Bot only be
cause of its pleasing exterior, bat be
cause of its adaptability to local cli
matic conditions. 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-;

Keports from many American cit
ies indicate that the anticipated ebe-'k
to building, because of a pred.rtM
lack of funds for financing operations
on the scale on which they have been
mn4 tided for the pat year, has not
materia lined.
(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

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
