One ef the moat beautiful bomn
In Klamath Fall, lovely In II
Spanish architecture, has recently
been completed on Pacific Terrace.
It. la owned by Mr. and lira. Roy
Fk Durbln and they, w.th their
architect, Howard R. Pen in, plan
ned the home.
The building is situated on a cor
ner iof and command an excel

lakes and mountains of the valley
coun:ry far away. It baa one ad
tactage orer uiuiy other modern
jorutK In the cuy in tha. i con
stant cool breeic blows ovtr Pac
ific Terrace during the wrtn sum
mer months.
' A door of Spanish tyre with
pointed glaw has an accompanying
screen, and Is pointed at the top
so tuat no line can be rcobed of
its beauty. - Tho windows are long,
and open like doors In the living
room onto a small cement halcony
with a quaint wrought Iron railing.
From the large living room
where, at one end a fireplace and
bookcaees lend an exceptional. y
hospitable atmosphere, French doors
open Into the d'-!ng room. In
this room a cool air heater with
wooden grates constantly sends cold
Ir into the rooms during warm
weather. To tha right of tbe din
ing room a sun porch opens where
flower boxes filled with gay flow
ers peering through long plate glass
windows lend an inviting atmos
phere. This room is of double
value as a wall-bed may conrcr'.
It Into a sleeping room.
French doors also open Into t!-e
master bedroom which is timed !n
tones of orchid-rose.
'. A narrow hall where cupboards
and deep shelves fill important
apace, leads to the bath and the
second bedroom. The bath. In
white and blue tile, has two nar
row' windows on either side of tbe
medicine chest over the basin.' A'
shower has also been installed.
The second bedroom Is used for j
the nursery for Mr. and Mrs. Dur
bln's young children, Roy Fran
cis and Jane, and peachblow tint j
ru used for the walls. j
Perhaps the most Interesting
room in the 'entire home is the
kitchen which Is complete In every:
detail known to architects and
housewives ailer years' of exper
ience. It is large and roomy en
ough for a breakfast table and
chairs and other necessary pieces
of furniture. The walls are lined
with white cupboards for dishes,
crockery and kitchen utensils. An
ironing board Is buUt In one side
of the wall and broom and mops
may be conveniently kept there.
The lawn of the Durbln home
has been seeded, while along the
driveway to the garage under the
sun-room quaint little flowers will
soon be blooming.
Taking the home, for' it is more
of a home than a house, as a
whole, it promises to be one of
Klamath Falls' most attractive
places for years to come.

MIAMI, Fla.. July 2. I United
News) A wave of unrest spreading
rapidly among depositors of small
banks of this vicinity, following the
failure of two suburban Institu
tions to open their doors, for busi
ness today, had resulted tonight In
the closing of two others, while
another had successfully withstood
a heavy run.
Unable to longer bear heavy bur
dens of paper on which they could
not realize, the Bank ot Cocoanut
Grove, and the Bank ot Buena Vis
ta, allied lstituttons, had failed
to open their doors. The news
swept the suburbs ot Miami and
soon a long line of depositors had
formed In front of the Little River
bank In the same section. Caught
unprepared to meet such a critical
situation this little bank soon was
forced to close its doors. Fear
ing for the security of their funds,
depositors of the Danla bank be
gan a rush upon It.
Paying out until its limited sup
ply of cash was exhausted this
bank also closed.
w ithin a few hours a muttering
crowd began gathering in front
ot the bank ot Hollywood, several
miles north ot the city.
By this time, however, larger
banking interests had come to the
aid of the small institutions, and
the Hollywood bank survived the
heavy run.

tor went for inspiration to tho pre
