"KffifrFOftP mm TRTBTOTB, WEPFORP, DTvEftoK 'WEDNESDAY, MXY 59, Ma Electrical Units' I In Kitchen Make j; Home Care Easier By the Architects' Small House Service Bureau of the ' United States, Inc. ' What do wo moan by an clec ' ttical kitchen? Here Is a partial ; list: refrigerator, ran go, ventila tor, mixer, dish washer; a host of smaller equipment. Maybe you can't afford much of this at first; maybe you can afford all of It. What about the electric refrigera tor, for example? This has gono through experimental stages. liy good hick IU development has been In the hands of well organized com panies with capital sufficient to1 work it out So we have presented to us operating units that will work. - The home builder who wants an ' electric refrigerator and has the ! money to pay for one has a num ber of designs, different sizes and , mekes, from which ho can choose. . Wow get this refrigerator located where the person who works in the 1 Itch on finds it convenient to band, and after she has used it she will Bay she could not do without it Time Saving Mixer Then there is the mixer. This 3b an electrio motor with, attach ments of various kinds to chop moat, mix dough and salad dress . ing, beat ogga. If there Is a lot of work of this kind to do, a big fam ily for example, It li. a time saver fof tho first order. People always i have to decide whether they can afford equipment of this kind. If they can and miss getting It, they snlss a lot , . Again, the electrio dish washer. Of course, women have washed dishes by hand powr for as long as anybody can remember, and longer, and they can go on doing it But the tendency is for wo man to emancipate herself from the kitchen. She does It not by neglecting the work, but by getting machinery to do It. Here Is a ma chine -that cuts dish washing time into some small fraction of what 1s required for hand power wash ing. If there are only two or three in tho family, a dish washer mani festly does not have the Importance that It does where the fumlly is 1 largo. Ventilate tho Kitchen 'Once more, the kitchen vent II a ' tor. If men had to stay In stuffy kitchens where many women spend seemingly endless hours, they would bo quick to see what somo kind of an exhaust fan set In tho wall would do for them. It Is of fensive for a man to come home In tho evening and find tho house full of the odor of boiled cnbbago or sauerkraut. Think of staying In the kitchen while this boiling operation 1b going on. No wonder women are often not hungry after they ; have prepared an excellent meal. It Is easy to understand how these fumes of even tho moat wholo- : somo food vltlato tho appetite as . 1 they vitiate the air. An electric . ventilator, which in simplest torms Is a fan Bet In the wall with suit able protection from the weather, establishes currents of air to carry cooking odors along in a definite stream. They get outside. Tho offenso Is removed. We have beon able to stand Ititchen odors for as long as memory of man. But wo don't novo to , stand for thorn. If you can't afford a ventilator, you will htivo to be . able to afford the odors. Home , builders must choose. Copyright 1928.

Plan of Established Values is a dining room proper and also a breakfast nook which here is set into a little recess of its own off the kitchen. This will be pleasant ly lighted by tho large casement windows. At tho rear of the house the bed rooms and bath are connected with a hallway and are In a sense de tached from the reBt of the house. This plan is iccognized by archi tects as a well established arrange ment As a bungalow type, for which there has always been a groat demand, It works. But here tho architects have taken the plan 'of these established values and have made of it what seems to be quite a new affair. It is a decided improvement, having architectural order and beauty that make it dis tinctive. The exterior speaks for itself. The great window in tho front lights the living room. The wooden lintel above this window and the ornament of shutters, lend a de lightful domestic quality. The door way and porch balance each other.

COMFORT . f... jj -""EH What You Want To Know About About Building Quetiions addressed to this' pa per toil! be answered by the Archi tects' small House service Bureau of the United States, Inc. Enclose a stampea aaaressea envelope. Q We have a breakfast porch. The floor gets very cold in winter although ve have boarded it In. How would you fix It? A Apply standard Insulation be-' tween the floor Joists. Get a irood tight job. Q We find In remodeling our house that the fireplaco flue must be offset about 12 inches. Is this likely to make the fire place smoke? A It all depends on tho wav it Is done. An offset of 12 inches In a story height Is all right, provided the flue is kept full size throughout and Is lined with tile. The greater the height in which you make this change the better It will be. Q I need a good strong wall for a mcchlno shop. I am plan ning on a twelve-inch brick wall for the first floor and eight Inch wall for the second. . How must I mix the concrete? What proportions? A Your question cannot bo an swered by correspondence. The re inforced concrete work must be designed as to mixture and rein forcement In consideration of the floor loads, floor spans, the amount of vibration, etc. We suggest you obtain the services of a local archi tect to work out your problem. This will no doubt prove to be the most economical scheme for vou and the one most certain -to elimi nate disappointment. Q. Do you think it advisable to- begin building a house in winter time? The house will be of brick. A. There Is no reason from the matter of temperature why a house cannot be built in winter time as well as in summer. Often the cost is less for winter building. Spe cial precautions must be tnken to prevent freezing of mortar and plaster. High grade contractors are entirely familiar with these processes. Q. Can the samo fluo be used for both fireplace and furnace? , A. Not without Berlous detri ment to the draft for the furnace. The principle Is to have a separate flue for each fire. It Is especially necessary to provide a separate flue for the house heater. Q. When the rains come from the east for two or throe days at this time of year that entire side of my brick house - takes on a great deal of water, more especially around the win dows. Please advise -what can bo done to prevent water from coming through. A. The . question whether the water is actually coming through the wall has first to be decided. In a good many cases where conditions are like yours the fault is from a cold wall rather than a wet one; from condensation rather than the water going through the wall. If it Is condensation, then the wall will have to be Insulated. If it is In filtration, the joints should be pointed with good cement mortar and if necessary the whole wall covered with transparent water proofing. Window frames should be well caulked A Building Service .
