Plummer Home Bespeaks Gracious Hospitality And Friendliness in Its Inviting Exterior Appearance

N t fa Bjgp ' * ff^JSjESgggS f|| ijL JBjk l* W%m v * f< F! ' \

Bespeaking a gracious hospitality, the home of Mr. and Mrs. Don C. Plummer, 3938 Central Ave., embodies the principles of architecture that are truly American. The house, an adapted Colonial type, is built of wide siding painted a snowy-white. Solid dark green shutters protect the windows of the second story, while all of the windows on the ground floor are beautified by flower boxes placed on the sills. The square, red brick chimney on the south of the house gives a cheerful contrast, and the three gable windows in the roof afford an item of architectural interest. The porch is quite different and as pleasing as it is different. It ex-

SHRUBBERY PLAYS IMPORTANT FART IN HOME SETTING

Surroundings Now Considered as Valuable as Structure of House, We talk of building material, of tvpee of architecture and speak of location, of beauty of interior detail — vet there is no single time that makes more for an artistic home than do beautiful grounds. There need not be an extensive area, although plenty of space Is always desirable, but if the house is placed on an ordinary lot a great difference can be achieved with some well planned shrubbery. There Is no question that a beautiful house set on unattractive and poorly kept grounds is far surpassed in appeal by the humble house placed amid artistic surroundings. The psychology" of this has become recognized by the progressive real estate Arms, and these are setting out shrubbery on vacant lots. Every high-grade residential section opened in this city in recent months has been planted to shrubbery. Why? Because realtors realize their lota will sell much more readily. It is necessary for the average person to rely on the advice of a reliable nurseryman, for he does not have the technical knowledge necessary properly to select shrubbery qualified to his needs, neither will his knowledge enable him to judge the quality of the plants. For almost half a century the growing of trees, plants and fruits has been the business of C. M. Hobbs iz Sons, Bridgeport Nurseries. During these years a vast amount of knowledge has been attained, and this Information may be had by every customer. “We keep our methods of propagation and cultivation up to date, using only methods that produce the best results,” said Mr. Harry Hobbs. “We take pride in our work and feel that our best recommendation comes from the fact that we are doing business with many persons with whom we did business a quarter of a century ago. Our plant Includes more than 300 acres, and It is a pleasure to show visitors through the grounds at any time.” Candy Day, Oct. 13 Nation-wide Candy day will be observed with the distribution of two tons of"candy in Indianapolis, Oct. 13. A pound of candy will be given to every boy and girl in orphan homes, and every man and woman in other Institutions. William A. Oren is general chairman of the local committee. letter Company Sold V. G. Pogue has bought the Thompson Letter Company, mailing and multigraphing company, Merchants Bank building. The plant was owned by Fred Millis. Pogue will take possession Ofet. 1.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Plummer home. 3938 Central Ave., expresses cordial hospitality and friendliness. tends across the front, but the middle part has an upper deck forming a portico “ffeot. A short railing surrounds this. Stairway of Graceful Design As one would imagine from the exterior, the front door opens into a wide reception hall. However, there is none of the cold formality In this welcoming room that often characterizes reception halls. A very graceful stairway, with balustrade, leads to the second floor, The small banisters are gracefully designed and the grouping of these small banisters at the downstairs landing, instead of the usual newel post. Is altogether pleasing. Well-placed console table and mirror, reception hall chair and small table, with potted farn, add to the Interest of the room. Pastel tapestry paper decorates the walls and taupe velour carpeting Is used. Livable indeed, is the long living room that, etends the full length of the south side of the house. Rose, the predominating color. Is found In the drapes, the double rugs, table and floor lamps and is repeated in the tapestry upholstering of the davenport and chairs. The deep fireplace, forms the central note of Interest,

PLUMBING FIRM UNUSUALLY BUSY Cation Brothers Obtaining Much Out-of-Town Work, Different lines of business have developed highly specialized departments to handle only one phase of the work. Whole companies devote their combined attention to one certain line of a particular Industry. Illustrative of this principle Is Callon Bros, heating and plumbing contractors, who specialize In the heating and plumbing of business buildings. Whe.i one realizes the heating and plumbing business Is very closely allied with the building industry, one can appreciate how busy the firms engaged in these lines are. In 1914 the building permits In Indianapolis as compiled by the Chamber of Commerce were 7,000,000 while last year the permits showed a record of 28,000,000. This firm does a great deal of business outside of Indianapolis. School buildings, business buildings of various kinds over the State, and hotels in many Instances In county seats have had the heating and plumbing done by Callon Brothers. This firm gives the draft of plans the greatest consideration for it is realized that the installation of the plants Is of the greatest Importance if best results are to he obtained. Accountants’ State Meeting Members of the Indiana Association of Certified Public Accountants will hold a State meeting In Indianapolis the third week In November, according to plans made by members In regular meeting. U. 8. Lesh, attorney general of Indiana, was commended for his opinion concerning the alleged practloe of a company in Washington, which is said to be illegally selling titles to the association for $lO each. Theater to Be Started Soon Construction of the $1,000,000 theater and office building on the northwest corner of Market St. and Monument PI., covering a site of the old English Hotel block, will be begun within the next few weeks, it was announced by representatives of the Famous Players-Lasky Corporation, moving* picture company.

Warm red cement forms the hearthstone and outlines the firebox. Unusual, and highly decorative is the treatment of the mantel shelf above is placed a beautiful mounted stag head. Chairs jand tables of mahogany and a piano of the same wood, harmonize with the character of the room. Dining Room on Right of Hall To the right, of the hail. with windows opening on to the porch is the dining roj/m. This is simply furnished in an artistic suite of an tique walnut. The backs and seats iof the chairs are upholstered in blue, I which color is repeated in the drapes. Opening from the rear of the hall i and accessible from the dining room ! through a very spacious pantry is the kitchen which holds a very genuine appeal. Blue and gray are used to carry out the color scheme, with the little breakfast nook furnished in quaint Dutch cupboards, tables and“ chairs. The panto' has cabinet space for all kitchenware and supplies, flour bins, a broom closet and other commodious and convenient built-in features. A small back porch entry furnishes a place for the ice chest and a

FURNACE REPAIR TK AT HAND Heating Plants Often Worked to Capacity for Months, The cold weather season is fast approaching and soon the home owner will be confronted with the problem of adequate heating with the least expenditure. It makes no difference how expensive a furnace may be, nor how, good it may have been when first installed, it should ha.ve a thorough overhauling before the beginning of winter. A furnace Is not like some machinery—worked only reasonably hard—a furnace is often taxed to capacity during the severe weather and is often in need of repairs when the new season begins. It Is muoh easier lo have the fuAiace examined by a competent heating man now than it will he to have the work done after firing has begun. Daufel Bros., 1133 Hoefgen St., make a specialty of the Sunbeam furnaces and find that the heating, ventilating and air moistening systems incorporated in this furnace give the home cwner complete satisfaction. SAVINGS INCREASE IN FAMILY WELFARE WORK $11,699.10 More in Eight Months, 1923, Than 1922, Report States. Fifty-three Indianapolis families opened new savings accounts during August with the Dime Savings and Loan Association, operated by the Family Welfare Society, it was announced today. Mrs. Mary Ball is secretary of the association. An increase of $11,599.10 during the first eight months of 1923 was realized over the amount of savings during the same period in 1922. Weekly deposits avera.ge from 25 cents to, 50 cents. It is estimated that $50,000 will be deposited by Jan. 1, 1924. Last year $47,000 was saved. Workers for the association who collect the savings make approximately 4,455 calls a month. The greatest number of withdrawals was made during August. '

hall leads from the kitchen to the basement entry. Upstairs Is Convenient The upstairs arrangement seems as practical and satisfactory as that of the first floor. Square bedrooms with a white glistening bath equipped with shower and other bathroom luxuries take up the space cn this floor. Besides the clothes closets in each of the bedrooms which are all attractively and comfortably furnished, there are linen closets In the hall. The built-in cabinet work, the mantel and stairway were all designed and Installed by the Brookside Lumber Company and give to the house muah of Its beauty and comfort.

BLOCK PLAN! TO OPERATE DURING' WINTER MONTHS Gibraltar Company to Accumulate Surplus Against Spring Needs, Planning to operate Its plant throughout the winter season, the Gibraltar Cement Block. Company, Morris St. and Eagle Creek, hopes ♦,o have a supply of blocks of hand at ihe beginning of the building season next year. “We were handicapped last year.” said John G. Praed, manager, "because our facilities did not permit us to operate through the coldest part of the year. We are planning on selling to the building material concerns so they will have blocks on hand whert orders are placed. It was the unfortunate situation last year when the material concerns were unable to furnish blocks to customers and consequently In many instances they failed to get the orders.” “Also our blocks will be better seasoned If they held over the winter. No matter If blocks are kilndried, they need aging. We have plenty of additional kiln room to care for capacity production, an output of 2,400 blocks a day,” Mr. Praed said.
