Investigate what a dwelling would corf and then determine whether it is not better to own your home than to pay rent. We can help you. We have free house catalogues and plan books which contain hundreds of designs. Among the most carefully planned is THIS COZY BUNGALOW. It is arranged to make thu best Dossiole ua of all

the room the house contains, and the architect has Kivsn attention to countless little conveniences that add so much to iliu chains u' a home. A dwelling should not be constructed merely to excite the admiration or the envy of cue's neighbors; The main purpose should be to alTord proper protection for the inmntea and to make life e;isv, pleasant and fomfi.rtahle.

For tha second time this week the scheduled letting of a contract for a road improvement fell through yesterday when contractors failed to sub-

unit bids on the improvement of

three-mile stretch of highway oa the county line between Montgomery and Boone counties. The Boone county -wii(nn were in rtuv-fnt-dKville. to join with the Montgomery board in letting the contract. They returned to Lebanon when they learned no bid had been submitted. The increased

cost of material caused the failure of

contractors to bid on the work, the jump in prices having occurred since the engineer's estimate on the job was made. 1 he difficulty in letting the contract for the proposed improvement follows a long litigation through three courts. The insue presented in the fight for and against the improvement of the road was an entirely new question in Indiana and the authorities hail no precedent upon which to base their action. Whether or not a bridge upon a highway is to be considered a part

of the highway wan the question at is

sue, remonstrators against the improvement basing their opposition on

the grounds that the comminsionerj, Iwid no right to order a road improvement under the three-mile gravel road law that would include the construction of an expensive bridge. The commissioners ruled that the bridge was a part of the road and its construction Mmum bo a jw.it of the. r..l improvement. When the romonstra-

took the matter to circuit court.

Judge We -t made the same ruling that

the commissioners had made. Then the case was appealed to the supreme court and the ruling made by Judge

West was affirmed.

Trade at home with men who huve an established business and a reputation to maintain and thus avoid the danger of excessive charges by men with whom you have no "come-back."
