A housa that "seems to belong Just
where It is" Is shown today.
Its lines are full of grace and quia
dignity.
The roof Is of cedar shingles, with
walls of hand-split cypress shingles
all left to weather. Trim Is white,
shutters dark green.
In the living room, the walls ano
panelling are painted a dark greenish
blue, with hangings of white chintz
with pink flowers. Wide spruce boar do
for the floor are painted a dark
brown.
The plan Is a flexible one, Its de
signer points out. If the first floor
of the main part only is finished,
there are three rooms and a bath to
start with. Thereafter, one bedroom
and a bath may be finished upstairs,
then another bedroom, and last of
all, the dining room wing may be
added.

Beautiful View Dictated Plan

""""
The general arrangement of the
plan of this dignified Ohio home wa
dictated by the fact that there was a
beautiful view In one direction to
ward the rear.
Outside woodwork la cypress, fin
ished with a dark brown stain. I'he
roof Is of hand-ppllt shingles.' The
stucco Is a light buff.
An Interesting detail Is the com
bination of pantry and breakfast
room opening out upon the end
porch.
A feature of the interior Is the two
story living room, with . adjoining
book alcove. Both are faced with
vertical chestnut boards, burned with
a torch and waxed. Floors are of
plank in random widths, showing th?
wooden pegs. Between the celling
beams, the plaster is of a cream tone,
slightly antiqued.
There are three bedrooms, a bath
and plentiful closets on the second
floor, despite the fact that the height
of the living room takes away a con
siderable porlon of the second floor
area.

The Outdoor Living Room
Looking Out Into a Garden Living
Room
Mere size Is no measuring1 stick ly
which to judge the posslDllitles ot
home grounds. The home on tne faction.
small lot can have Just as attractive
surroundings bs the biggest estate in
the land; In fact, some of the very
prettiest and most tasteful planting..
In the country today are to be found
surrounding homes of modest size.
' The humble cottage and stately
mansion both need a setting of grow
ing things to attain their full beauty,
and both suffer equally as much by
the lack of well-planted ,well-carei
for grounds.
' One of the most Important aswU
to a home 1b an outdoor living room.
In place of an open rear yard within
the view of everyone, the home owner
should plan a private outdoor living
room. Here one may enjoy the sun
shine, and work among shrubbery
and gay flowers out of the sight of
prying eyes. Let the turf provide ?
green carpet; plant beautiful trets,
shrubs and evergreen to make the
walls which set the room apart and
screen It from view.
Plant hardy flowers along the bor
ders to provide fragrance and color.
Then locate a few trees to provide
comfortable shade and fruit. Alto
gether, one may have a room as de
lightful as anything one could dream
of, a room which will give countless
hours of enjoyment, health and satts-
' Flowers
for Fragrance
Some of our leas attractive gar
den flowers are prised for their
fragrance. Undoubtedly nature thus
compensates for their lack of beauty.
The lavender, the mignonette, and
the evening scented stock (Mat
thlola Biscornts) are examples.
The fragrant flowers may be the
more enjoyed If only more fre
quently planted in the garden bed
directly under windows, or in the
porch or wlndox box.
We do have some very gay ana
pretty fragrant flowers adapted to
the window or porch box; the
sweet aly&sum, the dwarf candytuft,
the new sweet-scented doxible nas
turtiums and the balcony petunias.
Among the sweet-scented garden
flowers with stems suited to cutting
are carnations, freealaa, acablosas.

sweet Williams and wallflowers. Ail
of these varieties are easily grown
from seed.

Plant Tuberous -Rooted Begonias
There Is no doubt but that garden-
era generally find themselves rather
wary of venturing into the culture oi
tuberous-rooted begonias, because of
their delicate waxy beauty, and the
fact that they usually come to the
attention of the gardener as a conservatory-grown
pot plant.
The truth of the matter is that tne
tuberous-rooted begonias, started
from the rounded-bottom, flat, and
concave-topped hairy tubers, may te
grown with no more difficulty than
the gladiolus ot in tne garden Dea.

a cool spot In a very light, leafy, open
and well-drained soli, shaded from
the hot afternoon sun.
Tubers may be sprouted indoors
anytime from January to April. The
best method is to place them In shal
low boxes filled with a compost con
sisting entirely of imported peat and
sand, or a mixture of one part each
of light loam, Imported peat, and a
half part of coarse sand.
There are two points the amateur
gardener must bear in mind in con
nectlon with the sprouting tubera:
first, not to cover the crown or top
of the tuber until it has sprouted anc
developed t leaves; second, water very
sparingly until the tubers start Into
growth.
Once sprouted and the leaves de
veloped, the gardener has the optlun
of either planting the tubera Into 4
or 8 -inch pots, according to the size
of the tuber, In a very light but rich
soil compost, or of planting them di
rectly out into the garden bed In a
situation to their liking.
The tubers planted In pots should
be transplanted Into the next large.
size as soon as the roots reach the
side of the pot before they get pot-
bound, the main point being not to
over-pot and to pet them moderately
firm. It Is advisable not to put thm
In a spot where they will be subject
to a forcing heat, for they make
sturdier growth under moderate tem
peratures..
Potted plants or outdoor ' plants
should be treated alike Insofar m
pinching off the first buds. While it
is difficult for a gardener to do this
in view of the anxiety to see the first
flowers open out In their full glory.
still the sacrifice at this stage will
prove very worth while, especially If
weak liquid manure la fed to the
plants at least once a week.
When the plants "have finished
blooming, they should be watered
sparingly, and after the stems hc-ve
fallen off, water should bo withheld
entirely. The crowns or tops of tne
tubera should be dried carefully by
exposure to a dry atmosphere for a
few days and by protection from eve
ning and night damp. They may then
be stored in pots or boxes of nearly
dry soil In a cool damp place where
they may be occasionally examined
to see that they do not become dry
enough to shrivel nor damp enough
to rot, until the next planting season.
Tubers may easily be expected to
come Into full bloom in from five to
six months from the time they are
sprouted. The tubers do not multiply
like gladiolus and other bulbs, but
Increase In size yearly and there are
Instances where gardeners have re-
sprouted the same tuber for as long
as ten or twelve years.

NEW HAVEN. Conn.. Feb. 33.
(AP) President James Rowland An
gell of Yale today termed It "utterly
ridiculous" that teachers In certain
states are required to take oaths ot
loyalty while a "recently naturalized
lorelgn priest," nqt under a similar
obligation, is allowed to broadcast
"inflammatory social nonsense."
The Yale president did not Identity
the priest In his address prepared for
delivery to some 2.500 graduates here
for the annual university alumni
day.
"Consider the utterly ridiculous
condition," he aald, "which compels
President Conant of Harvard, under
the Massachusetts law as It now
standi, to take such an (teachers'
loyalty) oath, while at thn same time
It allows a recently naturalised for
eign priest to escape such an oath
and pour out weekly over the radio,
under the blessed name of social Jus
tice, the most poisonous and Inflam
matory economic and social non
sense." Dr. Augell contended that tf teach
ers' oaths have any result at all they
"render teachers timid about men
tioning current political Issues which
properly should engage their best
thought."
