AN ATTRACTIVE HOME for,

neighborhoods. The house for this week is only 24 feet wide, and yet there are two bedrooms down and enough room| in the unfinished upstairs for two more small rooms and a bath er] a large room for children. The original home of this design was finished this way. The owners had two boys about | two years apart and an older daughter. She had one of the downstairs bedrooms and the two boys had the upstairs. They also had room for a ping-pong table, an electric train, and the usual toys expected of boys between six | and ten. The down stairs was! | completely free from the usual hubbub of growing boys. ” *r ~ THE EXTERIOR is horizontal wood siding with vertical boards on the gable ends. The outside chimney, trellis and protected front porch all add to the good. looks of this home, The interior has almost every feature a person could ask for in ¥_________ a home, There is a coat closet by the front entrance — a dining! room on the right and a large!
