To hae corrwt lighting in our kitchen is not only easy but inexensive by using a totally inclosing, diffusing glass unit mounted at the center of the ceiling. In such places as at the sink and range it is advisable to have an illumination of high intensity, eliminating any possible shadows cast by the person.

This can best be accomplished if you desire to supplement the ceiling light by the use of a sturdy wall bracket or a suspended flvture with open glass shade, the bottom of which should be six feet from the floor. The minimum requirements for a kitchen to be adequately wired for the convenient use of electric service is therefore at least (1) one center outlet for the ceiling fixture, (2) two convenience outlets (it is suggested that one of these outlets be placed near the kitchen dresser or cabinet inches high for the appliances-used in the kitchen and the other for the dish washer, fan or refrigerator; 3 )ne control switch for ceiling light.

Lots were large and light was desirable on all sides, so the colonial type of architecture came into common usage.
