after the industry reached an his

Further evidence of the union

the Mission for six months or
more, receiving meals and a tern
porary home in exchange for
their services. The pride thev
take in their work is evidenced
by the highly polished floors
sparkling windows, and the fresli
clean atmosphere of the entire
building.
Members of the staff have
small individual bedrooms lo

ognition of their position. Sever
al of them are responsible for
the care of the dormitory, which
houses the overnight guests, and
keep it as spotless as their own
rooms.
The 50-bed dormitory on the
second floor of Uic Mission
filled to capacity with grey steel
bunk-beds, which are made up
with fresh linens each morning
and covered with while cotton
bedspreads. The aqua and black
tile floor blends with the aqua
walls, and the room is brightened
by a white ceiling. A large show
er room and dressing room are
adjacent to the dormitory
Before retiring, the men deposit
their clothing in one of the num
bered boxes on a shelf near the
dressing room. Each box contains
a pair of clean pajamas. In the
morning the pajamas are re
turned to the boxes for launder
ing - and each man can easily
locate his clothes. This procedure
also helps to eliminate the prob
lem of smoking in bed.
Extensive improvements have
been made to the Mission since
its opening. In March, 1959, with
$700 in the building fund, a new
addition was started. All of the
labor was provided by the tran
sient men, many of whom were
once carpenters, electricians, and
painters by trade. Early in 1962,
the three story addition was com
pleted, and a dedication service
was held April 8 to give the
public an opportunity to see
what had been accomplished.
The new addition includes the
dormitory room; the enlarged
dining room; the new kitchen
with storage room, wash room,
and utility room; a 400 gallon
hot water lank; and an enlarged
incinerator. The improvements
ere made for the men and by
the men as an expression of ap
preciation for the help given to
them by the Mission.

Homes Of Future Have
No Place For Drudgery
By MARGERY McELHENY
CHICAGO (UPI) Be it ever
so complicated, there's no place
like the home of the future for
freedom from drudgery.
An industrial designer blew the
dust off the residential crystal ball
to let me peck at the home, circa
1988.
What I didn't see amazed n.t.
by its absence. Samples:
No Kitchen!
No dirty pots or pans!
And, imagine, no dusters!
Dave Chapman, president of the
industrial design firm of Chap
man, Goldsmith and Yamasaki
Inc., continued his proclamation
of emancipation from drudgery
for the housewife of the future;
by saying:
New Dining Area
The kitchen will be displaced
by a dining area of totally dif
ferent concept, evidenced in the
trend toward oixm family areas
in some of our houses today.
"The dining areas will be a liv
ing space as opposed to a work
area and new prc-prcparcd food:
will simply be modified. Food w ill
not be cooked in the currenl sense
of the word, but simply cooled
heated, spiced or flavored."
What about appliances and fur
niture for such an area? Chap
man said a dining room table
and a buffet will be the major
appliances at which lood is
heated or cooled.
Instead of a kitchen, there will
be a "service center," where a
'house programmer" controls the
environment.
The programmer or "black
box" will have lots of knobs,
dials and adjustments. "Us magicl
innards will be a combination of
a tape recording device and mod
ern computer mechanism." Chap
man said.
Homemakers of 19AA will pro
gram the environmental aspects of
(lie entire household for a vear
or more ahead if thev like, said
Chapman.
May Control Dust
"Temperature and humidity can
be controlled, dust and pollen

ng devices, night lights turned

'Face Of North America'
Tops Reading For March
A book about the grandeur,
beauty and vast variety of our
continent, from the Aleutian Is
lands down to the Florida Keys
and Mexico Peter Farb's "Face
of North America" is the March
selection of the Book-of-the-
Month Club.
Even Americans who travel
widely tend to take for granted
(he country they fly over or drive
through its vast plains, great
mountains, lakes and rivers, rug
ged sea cliffs and broad,' sandy
beaches.
This is the land that Peter Farb
describes in his book, subtitled
"The Natural History of a Conti
nent," which represents upward of
40,000 miles of journeying about
to study and observe or to consult
with experts; and some four years
of research and writing.
"Face of North America" pur
sues two main themes: one, the
fascinating diversity of tlie dif.
ferent regions of America; tlie
oilier, the constant changes in it,
past and present.
Some of the most dramatic
changes, Mr. Farb notes, were
brought about by glacial action.
"The moving wall of ice, which
at (imes pushed forward at (he
speed of a foot a day. altered
everything in its path. It ripped
out immense boulders and used
them as sandpaper (o scrape off
the thin veneer of soil. The gla
cier was like a monumental plow
upon the land, scooping out de
pressions in (he ear(h and grind
ing boulders down to pebbles."
Other changes yet, as Mr. Farb
points out in a section on sea-
coasts, have been and are being
brought about by the unending as
saults of waves, currents and
(ides. Still others come about be
cause of water falling upon the
land, tven the mightiest moun
tains may be in time subdued by
water in the form of frost, ice,
snow or running s(reams.
"The New World," Mr. Farb ob
serves, "is new no( only in (he
sense of being a recent discov
ery, bu( also in that man traveled
to it across the Bering S(rai( land
bridge a mere tens of thousands
of years ago, and many animals
and plants are likewise relatively
recent arrivals from Asia. Until
recently the Bering land bridge
had been visualized as a narrow
gateway or isthmus, but the lat
est evidence seems to indicate
that it was at times as much as
1300 miles wide, completely link
ing Alaska and Siberia."
Forests and deserts are also
discussed in "Face of North Amer
ica," as are birds and animals of
all kinds. "The prairie dog's real
nature is concealed by two inac
curate names. It is not a dog
rather, it is related to the squir
rel. Nor docs it usually inhabit
the prairies, but rather the short-
grass plains. Before the plains
were settled, prairie-dog towns in
many places stretched as far as

Pe(er Farb made his first ac
quaintance with nature as a city

it ever since. Born in New York
City in 1929, he had gathered a
formidable collection of insect
specimens in local parks and
streets by the time he was 10
years old.
His early ambition was to be

to specialize in nature writing.
