TOUPS, France, July 10. Saint Martin is the most popular of all French saints, if popularity may be measured by the number of cities, villages and churches named after him. Three thousand six hundred seventy-two churches alone bear his name, dotting the entire country. In this design we find a pleasing departure from the usual balanced colonial type of house. The unsymmetrical spacing of openings and grouping of units add materially to the charm of the house from without.

Within we find a thoroughly practical plan arrangement embodying well-proportioned rooms conveniently arranged and lending themselves readily to interior decorations. The living room is very comfortable and opens upon this size house and in addition to which is a cozy breakfast room. The kitchen is conveniently arranged and well placed in the plan. On the second, floor are three master bedrooms and two baths, as well as a maid's room and bath which are located over the garage. A separate stairway leads to the maid's quarters.

There is good attic space which is accessible by a disappearing stair arrangement in the ceiling of the second floor hall. The exterior walls of the house are covered with shingles laid with a wide exposure to the weather. The roof covering is of shingles in variegated shades of brown. The shutters and blinds are painted apple green. The side walls, all exterior trim, windows and cornice are painted a light cream color.

The brick chimney is painted to match the side walls and has a black cap. This color scheme lends a fresh and cheerful appearance to the house and especially when a background of trees and foliage is possible. There is a full height cellar extending under the main body of the house. MODERN I AT room is of unusual dimensions for INSULATION IN Home Owner Should Make Careful Selection. There are many excellent insulating materials on the market, and dealers are in a position to advise on their proper use according to each particular need.

In selecting insulation material three important things are to be remembered: It should be fireproof or at least fire-resistant. It should resist attack by insects and rodents or be well protected against such attack. It should be proof against or resistant to moisture absorption. When intended for use in a house equipped with air-conditioning devices the method of installation esspmes considerable import ance, and it is best to secure the advice of an architect or an engineer in this connection. Where humidified air is present, special precaution must be taken to protect any insulation against moisture resulting from condensation during cold weather.

NEW PLASTER ABSORBS NOISE Sound-absorbing plaster with its air pockets that prevent the deflation of sound waves, thus dead ening them without excessive reverberation, controls the sound within the room. It comes in white and colors, and its finished surface is of proper hardness to withstand normal wear and tear and redecorating without loss of efficiency. Acoustical plaster may ba used with good effect in bedrooms. nurseries, telephone recesses, rec-l reauon rooms, ana otner sections of the household where sound con trol is desirable. 1 i CLYDE N.

WILSON. Clvde N. Wilson, aged 53, of 3321 East Mishawaka avenue, died late Saturday afternoon in Ep- worth hospital following an appendicitis operation. (Story on page one, section four). MAN DROWNS AS HEAT CONTINUES Continnrd from Face One, Cf lama Eight.

forecast, with the possibility of scattered thunderstorms in the afternoon. The nation added its heat death toll Saturday night and counted 150 deaths directly attributable to the blistering temperature. Indiana remained one of the more fortunate states with only five deaths. A thermometer at the Purdue university experimental farm near Bedford, recorded a maximum temperature of 97 degrees, apparently the highest reading in the state. Deaths Reported.

Two heat deaths were reported in Indiana Saturday. Many others were prostrated and thousands suffered from the torrid wave. Elva H. Baer, 39, of Lapel, died of heart disease on an Anderson golf course. Apoplexy induced by the heat caused the death of Mrs.

Santa A. Mangano, 54, at Fort Wayne. Physicians blamed heat for a stroke of apoplexy suffered by Elmer Foust, 53, at a fair being held in Anderson. He is in a seri ous condition. i Many residents of the state sought refuge in swimming pools and northern lakes.

Richmond parks were filled with sleeping residents who sought to escape from the heat Saturday night. The temperature there reached 91 degrees. Anderson maximum also was 91. Vincennes reported a high of 95. Huntington reported a top read ing of 95 degrees.

It was the fifth consecutive day the mercury had soared above 90, Fort Wayne, Evansville, Indi anapolis and Lafayette reported 91-degree temperatures. The peak at Lafayette, 97 degrees, was established Wednesday, U. S. APPROVES WILSON SCHOOL FIELD PROJECT John K. Jennings, state works progress administrator, announced Saturday night federal WPA officials in Washington, D.

had given final approval on an allot ment of $27,208 to Portage town ship, this county, for construction of an athletic field and playground at the Woodrow Wilson school. The sponsor's contribution is to make the total estimated cost of the project $31,953. The allotment was one of 10 approved for Indiana projects providing a total federal allotment of $905,595. The total estimated cost of the projects, including the sponsor's contributions, is $1,142,373. SLEIGHS USED ALL YEAR.

By United Press, MONTREAL, July 10. Sleighs travel over one narrow street here every day of the year. The sleighs are used to exercise horses from a nearby stable. In winter they are heavily loaded, but in summer the horses drag them along the pavement empty. a.

It is pointed out that every dollar goes into the structure itself when the planning is intelligent and avoids waste space, when the material specified is of sound and enduring quality, and when properly drawn assure the owner receiving 'rt he is paying for. Indispensible fcr ures of an architect's service include planning and designing and a knowledge of the proper use for various materials, the direction of the proper sizing and placing of structural members, an understanding of the relative value and physical endurance of the many kinds of material used in home building, and the ability to recognize inferior substitutes and the ability to recognize the difference between sound and dishonest workmanship. DEVICE GUARDS HOME DELIVERY Receptacles for milk or other perishable, foods and packages offer protection to the articles, are time saving for those deliver ing mercnanaise, ana of inestimable convenience for the house keeper.

The receiver extends through ar exterior wall of the kitchen and the insulated outside door through wnicn aeuveries are made is controlled bv an automatic locking device which projects deliveries from outside removal as soon as the door is closed. Operated from the inside is a pendant which unlocks the receiver for the next delivery. CLOSETS ARE NEEDED. you remodel your home, be sure to add enough closets so that storage space will be available at all times. Closets can most always be worked into a house, and careful consideration should be given to this conveni- ence unit.

The Highest Quality Equipment the Market Affords KA SHANNON LISTS WIRINGjJHECKS Offers Sug gestions for Electrical Needs. Editor's note This ir the tecond of series of articles prepared for The South Bend Tribune by L. shannon, chief eieo-trical inspector for the. city. In the last 10 years the use of Jelectricity has increased from 427 kilowatt hours to 73 kilowatt hours in the average home.

The depression years did not see the drop in the use of electricity that would be expected. The demand for better light has increased the wattage in light fixtures. Proper wiring should be considered. Here are a few questions you should ask yourself when planning to build a home or inspecting a house which you may purchase or occupy as a tenant: Must one appliance be disconnected in order to plug another appliance in for use? May the furniture be changed around, with- jout running cords around on the floor to the floor lamps and radios Do the lights dim when appliances are plugged in for use? Is there an outlet in the kitchen for tne use of the band iron and the toaster and electric refrigerator? 1 Are switches In the proper place, or must you enter the room in the dark hunting for a pull chain to turn on the lights? Do heating appliances heat slowly? Is electricity being wasted by forgetting to turn off the closet and basement lights Do fuses have to be replaced frequently PHOTO MURAL POPULAR IDEA A new form of wall decoration that is increasing in popularity with the home owner who wants mural. These murals may be made from small photographs.

Sometimes photographs of summer homes or favorite vacation spots may be used for the murals. Game rooms, particularly, lend themselves to this decoration.

Alain St Phone 4-9477 Daytime Temperatures May Be Reduced 10 to 15 Degrees 1 i NHYV GREEN LUMBER NOT SUITABLE Poor Boards Shrink and Warp on Drying. The lumber that goes into the frame of a house will determine largely the future durability of the house itself.

Undried lumber of inferior grades is sure to shrink and probably warp durin the slow drying process that will take place over a long period. This shrinkage and warpage will affect all the rest of the house; plaster will crack, doors and windows will stick, trim joints will open, plumbing and heating pipes will be forced out of line, form- ing pockets which will prevent complete drainage in water pipes and steam traps in steam pipes with a consequent hammering in the pipes and blocking of circulation so that some radiators will not heat. This can be avoided largely by the use of grade-marked lumber But grade marking is just a safeguard against material inferior to that specified. In each case the grade of the lumber to be used should be specifically noted. Grade marking does not guarantee mois ture content, however, as that is an element which can be upset by exposing the lumber during a long period of rain.

Lumber should have not over 19 per cent moisture content when erected, and should be protected while on the job during rains, with tarpaulins or waterproof paper. Except in unusually dry weather, lumber that has been well dried before coming on the job will pick up some moisture even with the best of care, but if it is well dried to start with, and is not subjected to actual soaking, it will dry out rather quickly and will not change in volume enough to make an appreciable difference. APPEARANCE OF AGE GIVEN NEW CAPE COD ROOM A reproduction of an old-fashioned Cape Cod kitchen has a dado of natural wood which has been bleached, sanded, and varnished to give it a weather-beaten Above the dado the wall has been painted a soft creamy yel low. The surface of the scalloped wooden cornice is treated like the dado, and the ceiling is painted cream color. The cabinets are painted cream color also, with yellow top surfaces and chrome pulls.

A dish cabinet is built in one corner and is painted cream outside, leaving the natural-wood finish on the interior. Over the stove is a glassed-in cabinet painted pink inside with the matching cream on the exterior. Below the! window valance natural wood are curtains of yellow chintz, bordered in sea green. Chairs and corner, shelves have been given the natural finish to match the dado and cornice. PUT FIREPLACE IN GARDEN SPOT Outdoor fireplaces are no longer confined to the picnic grounds but are found frequently in modern gardens.

This feature, which has been popular on the west coast for a long time, is rapidly becoming a favorite throughout the country with the garden enthusiast. Builders of new homes are planning for outdoor meals when they plot their garden, and new homes are purchased with a view to converting a corner of the garden to a dining alcove. If you are planning to build an outside fireplace and wish to, a landscape architect may be consulted for design and location. If, however, you wish to design one yourself, there are a number of possibilities that will blend with the garden scheme without emphasizing its utilitarian purpose. HEATING UNIT NOW SMALLER Heating -experts have con structed a graceful unit 40 per cent smaller in space without loss in efficiency.

Many sizes are available to fit into almost any niche or sitting. These "vest -pocket" radiators are adapted equally for hot water, vapor, or vac uum heating systems. Old houses are brought up to date by their use, and smartness is added to new construction. In the modernization of old 1 buildings more space Is made available by the installation of these smaller units, and vastly improved radiation and general heating service is provided. CABINET DOORS EXCLUDE DUST As a protection against shifting dust, the doors of kitchen cabinets should be rabbetted.

The edges should be cut away so that the doors lap where they meet each other and their frames. The doors should strike against a rabbet on the bottom shelf or should strike against the edge of the shelf. REPAIR PLASTER CRACKS. When bad cracks appear in the plaster of the ceiling, they should be cut out and all loose plaster removed. Sometimes a crack indicates a loosening of a large section of plaster.

IS URGED Dr. Carter Warns on Oral Infection Dangers. That the mouth and nose, points Where infection enters the body, must be cared for to safeguard health was expressed by Dr. Nicholas Carter, secretary of the board of health, in the weekly bulletin. "An individual has very little control over the air which enters the body," Dr.

Carter said. "Many times the liquids which i he drinks are bad and often the food which he eats is contaminated and foul. However, usually individuals may keep their own mouths clean. How any one can expect to have good health with a filthy mouth is beyond understanding. i r-tiie nf fnod that IS swallowed comes into contact with th tth.

the lips, the tongue and the mucous membrane of the oral cavity in the course of mastication. If dead, decaying teeth are harboring infections, pus is squeezed out in the process of chewing and is thus mixed with food. One marvels at the ability of the body to withstand all of the pus which may come into the body by this route. Secretions from the stomach and digestive i processes kill many germs, but so large an amount of pus as may come from the mouth and nose becomes a problem for the organs of our body to take care of. "Surely teeth should be Kepi dean.

Daily washing of the teeth with a very simple type of tooth paste or tooth powder will maintain a clean mouth. It is needless to say that the mouth of an individual should be checked over by someone who knows where pus pockets and cavities are. A checkup of this kind will prolong the life of an individual and will avoid heart trouble and other infirmities of later life." "The tongue is often an indicator of the physical condition of an individual. A thick, gray coat of fur over the tongue indicates that there is a stagnaton of the food supply in the body and that "there is not a proper elimination. Abcesses in the tonsils and tonsil crypts may be filled with food which becomes a decomposed, cheesy substance.

Upon a little pressure this substance will be released and will be swallowed along with the food which is being taken into the body. "This article could continue for a long time on the possibilities for infection to enter the body through the mouth. However, we will end with these two statements: The mouth is the portal of entry for much of the disease which enters the body. However, an individual, by keeping mouth and teeth scrupulously clean, may minimize the opportunity for infection. Present good care will avoid future trouble." TALK HEARD IN POLITICS Contlnnrd from Pag One, Column One.

in this county, this state and this nation. Mr. Grant was selected for the liquor board appointment by County Attorney Clifford Potts, more of that young Mood, and County Commissioner E. Gardner, whose political judgment has about topped what the republican administration has had to offer. If and when the anti-Freyer-muth-Huntler-Weer republicans begin looking around fo leaders with whichfto restore the G.

O. P. to a single front; Mr. Grant might well be considered one of those leaders. There are other youngsters around in the republican ranks who would be of great help to Mr.

Grant. It is just a matter of finding them by those who never thought before about looking for them. From reports the republican leaders in the state are! going to make another attempt at solving the discord in the state committee, which was far from settled with the election of the Injured James A. Slane, of Lafayette, as secretary. George M.

jBall, the OrjrjlVO Muncie multi-millionaire who gives and gives to the republican cause every election year, is said to be aiming toward a meeting in Indianapolis soon of non-politician republicans for the sole purpose of seeking an answer to the problem that now finds the party blasted wide open and charges flying against each faction that rival the charges being hurled among democrats in congress over the court reform bill. As long as the present condition continues in the. state republican set-up Gov. M. Clifford Townscnd is going to have to do worse than he has with the Mc-Nutt machine before losing ground to the republicans.

One thing is certain and that is that as long as republicans put funds in the democratic campaign coffer and at the same time direct the G. O. P. cause the democrats will not have anything to worry about. They might even consider abandoning the democratic Two Per Cent club and just use republican money, E.

Serious damage to boilers is often incurred during the summer months, one of the principal causes being corrosion which results from the combination of moisture in the ppllar ir and sulDher in the soot, ash, and residue. This reduces a boiler's usefulness. a thorough cleaniner bv a com petent heating contractor will pre vent tnis corrosion. Cleaning oi th hoiler consists of the removal of soot, ash, and residue from all heating surfaces and the removal of clinkers, cinders, and ashes from the firepot, grates, ana asnpit. Broken or warped grates should reoaired before fall to prevent the waste of fuel.

Partly burned fuel may pass tnrougn a warpea grate and fall into the ashpit for disposal. Outer surfaces of the boiler should be cleaned, and the application of a preventative paint to parts normally painted is effective in keeping the heating unit in good condition during the summer. months. MOLDING USED TO PANEL WALL In decorating bedrooms, walls paneled in molding are appropri ate and effective. Before adjust ing the molding it is advisable to plan the panel spaces in relation to the furniture.

If a double bed is used, a large corresponding twin beds are in the room, two narrow panels may effectively form the background for each bed. The wall paneling should take ac count of other pieces of furniture, such as chest of drawers, desk, dressing table, in order that proper balance may be effected. TOUGH GLASS NEW PRODUCT A plate glass of extra strength and toughness has recently been developed. It is highly polished perfectly transparent, and strong enough to support five times the weight that ordinary plate glass can carry and will bend five times as far without breaking. This durable glass may be sub stituted for wire glass or exterior and interior wire guards now being used where added protection is required.
