It was a severe test of the skill and stamina of the pilots an<! the stability of the planes and was successfully carried through. The trophy, which Is competed for annually by United States army officers under War department rules, was first presented 18 years ago to the Aero (Tub of America by Clarence H. Mackay. The National Aeronautical association, successor to the Aero Club of America, Is present custodian of the trophy for the War*department LOW bld for the general contract on the Hoover dam and power plant in Boulder canyon was submitted in Denver by a combination of . western construction firms —the Six Companies, Inc., of San Francisco, and the government engineers recommended that this bid of $48,890.91X1.50 be accepted by Secretary of the Interior Wilbur. Work on the project, the biggest engineering Job ever undertaken in this country, probably will be started before the end of March.

Government officials, although asserting work would be hastened so unemployment conditions in the Southwest w’ould be relieved, warned workers against a general migration to the Nevada-Arizona line dam site as there were 10,000 laborers on hand at Las Vegas. Nev. Estimates for construe-* tion forces ranged from 2.000 to 2,500 men at work at one time when the program gets into full stride. MAL S. DAUGHERTY, brother of former United General Hhrry M. Daugherty, was convicted in Washington Courthouse, Ohio, of defrauding the defunct Ohio State bank while he was Its president. The jury found the sixty-eight-year-’old financier guilty on all five counts in the indictment. ‘ Each count carries a maximum penalty of thirty years’ imprisonment and a fine of $10,000.-Sen-tence has not yet been imposed. Mal Daugherty became a figure prominent In newspaper headlines during the investigation conducted by a special senatorial committee investigating Harry Daugherty’s conduct of the Department of Justice. ONE of the most eminent engineers' F t,,e American army, and indeed of the nai'on, passed on when .BBT .> Lieut. Gen.

Jadwin Ancon preparing to go 1 to Nicaragua to survey the posslbili- : ties of a Nicaraguan canal, he was stricken with apoplexy, and a cerebral i hemorrhage ended his life. The body was put aboard the transport St. MiLid to Jh* taken to New York. General Jadwin, who was born in Honesdale, P«l. in 1865; was graduated from West Point in 1890 and had a brilliant career in the engineering corp* for nearly forty years, retiring In 1920. He served in the Spanish-American war nnd the World war. but was best known f<>r hljQmacetime work in the in the Canal Zone. The Jadwin jplan of flood control formulated aft*> the disastrous Mississippi of 1927 wa* the army officer’s most important work. The plan called for expenditure .of $325,000,000 and was opposed in congress. but finally passed with administration support.. After his retirement he served as chairman of the power commission for some months. \riCEROY LORD IRXVIX-mpd Mahatma Gandhi, both maliing concessions, reached an agreement for peace in India, and the 'civil disobedience movement that bad lasted for a year came t,o an end. The Ntitionalists looked on the pact as a triumph for the doctrine of non-violence. The'British government,, though it yields considerable. probably gets none the worst of the bargain. By the terms of the agreement, it is. understood, the Na tionallsts abandon their resistance movement and will work for qualified dominion status in the second roumi table conference. In return, their imprisoned members will be released and most of the confiscated property will be returned; they are permitted to conduct boycotts that do nor alm specifically at British goods, and the poor natives along the coast are given the right to make theif own salt. The nmst Important gain for the British was the point in which the Nationalists agreed to confine themselves at the next round table conference to the specified sv'ope of constitutional questions elucidated by the first round table meeting in London. This commit* Gandhi to the principle of a federation of Indian responsibility. but with British safeguards covering finance, defense, foreign affairs, the position of minorities and the discharge of India's national dej»ts. S’ now has another new governat, A naval junta forced the tion of Provisional President Sanchez Cerro and put in power a cabinet with Dr. Ricardo Leoncio Elias, chief justice of the Supreme court, as president. His chief collaborator is Col. Manuel Bravo. The Arequipa revolutionists refused to accept the Elias junta, their choice for president being Col. Aurelio Godos, but the aviation corps oiiicially approved the Elias regime. THE Communist government announced to the All Union Soviet congress on March 7 what it considers one of the most important victories of its history when It presented figures showing that 8.250,006 peasant families have been collectivized up to February 20. A summary of the report disclosed the assertion of the Soviet authorities that 33 per cent of all the jmr ami middle class peasants of Russia had been converted to the collective farm movement, nnd that the campaign to eliminate individual landholders was gaining momentum daily. SIR OSWALD MOSLEY, wealthy British socialist, and his wife. Lady Cynthia, have broken with the Laborites and formed a new party of their own which asks for 400 candidates in the next election. The,Mosleys especially attack the unemployment policy of the MacDonald government. AL CAPONE, Chicago’s public enemy No. 1. did not fare so wMI when he ran afoul of the federal judiciary there. Judge Wilkerson sentenced the notorious gang leader to six months In jail for contempt of court In excusing his non-appearance in court some time ago by pleas of illness at Miami. The case was appealed, Capone being released under bond. SENATOR Arthur Capper’s committee on food prices reported that te found “an alarming tendency toward the monopolistic control of the food of the nation by a small group of powerful corporations and combinations," the tendency being especially strong In the case of bread abd milk. A careful scrutiny by the federal trade commission and the Department of Justice was recommended. (fik ini. Western New»p<p«r Union.)

1 By W. A. RADFORD Mr. William A. Radford will answer questions and give advice FREE OF Cost on all subjects pertaining to practical home building, tor the readers of this paper. On account .of his wide experience as editor, author and manufacturer, he is, without doubt, the highest authority on all these subjects. Address all inquiries to William A. Radford. No. 407 South Dearborn street, Chicago, 111., and only Inclose two-cent stamp for reply. When the average family begin to plan to build a new home, every member has some idea that he or she would like to see incorporated in the house. In some other home, perhaps such a feature as appealed to_the individual was found and gsjvs rise to the thought that when or if he was to build he would have this feature in his home. It is this desire that makes so many homes entirely different from others. There is danger, however, in carrying tliis idea too far. Odd features either in the exterior or interior of h house may not-api>eaL to some one else, and. if the necessity arises, may prevent the sale of the home. Comfort and convenience may be secured for the average ,family by following the plans that have been found most suitable to the averagb family. And when this is done it is not diflicnlt to dispose of the place if it is desirable to do so. One type of house that appeals to the greatest numbeb of persons is the story-and-a-half building, such as is shown in the accompanying illustration. Here is a house of the size and shape that appeals. While it iboks large fropi rhe outside, it is not. as it contains only six rooms, aside from the Inclosed breakfast porch at the rear of the first floor. It contains three good rooms . downstairs— living and dining rooms and kitchen —and three betlrooms and the bathroom on the second floor. This number of rooms will accommodate nicely the average family. In exterior appearance it is difficult to find a more attractive house than the one shown. The narrow gables at the end. the sW>ep dornfer Window set in it at the front and the extension of the r«>of lines to form the porch cov- ® tafMlftß. 14\7-6‘ I 4"«" *«| DININGRM J UtUrt /\ 12'x13-&* bp gjECPKj 1^5 ' |J Front Porch I Firtt Floor Plan. ering all combine to give this house a graceful, homelike appearance. exterior appearance Is greatly en hanegd by the brick foundation and j piers of the porch and the wide brick , fireplace chimney in the end wail. The j porch is inviting in summer, while the chimney gives rise to thoughts of a comfortable, open fire in the winter time. “The floor plans that accompany the exterior view show how the rooms are arranged and thel/ size. The entrance door off the porch leads into a reception room, out oZ which run the stairs to the second floor. To the

Many Metal Lath Types Individually Effective Metal lath, which of late years has been glten wide acceptance ih quality construction, because of its fire-re-sistanc*. plaster protection, ease of installation and adaptability to decorative requirements, is made in a variety of types for use at various points about the home. Tbe main division in metal lath manufacture is between the expanded and the wire types. Expanded, metal lath is made from a piece of steel which Is punched In such a pattern that when the two sides of the sheet are pulled cutward series of keys are formed in the metal, these forming the bond for plaster. Various weights and sizes of the lath are made, and galvanizing or other protective processes are given to the sheets to eliminate rust. The wire type of metal is also made in various weights for exterior and interior use. Cross Joints of the wires are usually spot welded. Treated paper back'ng in some types guards against plaster falling behind the lath A

right, through double-glazed doors, is the living room. 12 by 15 feet in size. Three windows opening onto the porch ’ and the high windows bn either side , of the fireplace admit plenty of light 1 and ventilation. The wide fireplace at ! the end of tlie room, with bookcases i on either side under the window, adds 1 to the attractiveness of the room's fiu- ' ish. Back of the living room is the din- > Ing room, also a light cheery room. 12 by 13 feet 6 inches in dimensions. And I opening off the lining room and connected with it by double doors is a L large, inclosed breakfast porch. 14 feet 1 long and 7 feet 6 inches wide. This > room also makes a secluded cheerful , sun parlor. 1 . -Adjoining the dining room at the ; left is the kitchen. 11 feet square. 1 whose size and shape make it an efficient workroom for the housewife, a 1 N.

The side e.n trance leads to a passageway; which is large enough for the icebox and has a closet alongside it for the linens needed in the dining room and kitchen. Back of the kitchen also is a goodsized pantry. The stairs lend into a short hall on the second floor, off which open the three bedrooms, one at the front, one at the side and one at the back. The bathroom is located in the center of I this floor, so that it ■ is accessible to all three bedrooms. Both front and rear bedrooms are 15 feet 6 inches by io feet, while the at the eml of the Louse Is 11 by I'2 feet. The basement extends under the whole of the house and is reached by stairs just, inside the entrance at the side of jhe house. Taken altogether this is a very desirable home building design—one that combines exterior attractiveness and interior comfort, and it is not expensive to build. Home Value Measured by Livability First Today the value of a home is measured primarily by its livability. Architectural design, beauty of finish and > location are important, but a hand- * some house that lets its iwenpatit* shiver in winter and swelter in sumI I met isn't , worth nim-h either to live t ■. in or for selling.

Jesus tn the Home of Friends (Luke 10:38-42). There is no place where true character is so clearly revealed as at home. j. His reception (v. 38). Jesus was i receiveC by Martha, as she was the i head of the home. Jesus must have greatly appreciated the fmt that there was one home in which he was welcome. 2. Mary sitting at Jesus’ feet (v. 39). She. with tine spiritual discernment. knew that sitting at the Lord’s feet and hearing his word was that which would most please him. He was more concerned with opportunity to reveal himself to human hearts than with the eating of well preparetl meals. Mary’s way <>t entertaining Jesus was more acceptable than that of Martha. 3. Martha cumbered about much serving (v. 40), Both sisters loved the Lord; It would be impossible to say which loved the more, but Martha was bent on providing a fine meal for hint. Because site was trying to do so. many things, she was on the verge <>t distraction, and found fault with Jesus for permitting .Mary to leave the kitchen to listen to his teaehingi. 4. Jesus'answer (vv. 41.42). (a) He rebuked Martha (v. 41). He did this most tenderly for he knew that she . loved him sincerely, (bj Defends Mary (v. 42) lie declared that but one thing was needful and that Mary had chosen that stood part which could not be taken away from her. The .one tiling needful for every member pt the race is a heart for the Lord which brings the individual to Jesus to hear bis teaching. IL Jesus Arbong Foes (11:14-54). 1. Charged with being in league with the devil (vv. 14-23). Being unwilling to receive him as the Son of ttod and yet unable to account for his mighty works, they declared that he was casting out demons through Beelzebub, the chief of the demons. 2. Refusal to believe his miracles (vv. 29-32). They asked for a sign to which he replied that they would have a sign from heaven in his death and resurrection. He reminded them, how ever, that their request showed tin belief surpassing that of the heathen queen of the South and the wicked people of Nineveh. 3. Wickedness denounced (vv. 37-54)■ He pronounced six woes upon those who were opposing him and seeking his destruction: three upon the Phari sees and three upon the lawyers. a: The Pharisees (vv. 37-41). These he denounced for: (1) Punctiliously observing minute rite .while at the same time breaking the Ten Commandments. They care fully tithed the small herbs of the garden while practicing injustice with their fellow men and withholding love from God. lie pointed out to them their attending to these external acts while their hearts were filled with wickedness. It was as absurd as merely washing the outside of an un clean, cun. (2) Desire for public recognition (v. 43). This is a common sin^ today. Love for titles of res|>ect and positions of prominence is a very common sin. (3) Feigning humility (v. 44). He compared their hypocrisy to’ graves which are on the ground and may be stepped upon unconsciously by some ont who would thus be defiled.' b. The lawyers (vv. 45-54). The strictures of Jesus on -the hypocritical Pharisees aroused rite lawyers, one of whom Indignantly declared, “Thou reproechest us also.” In reply to this Christ pronounced three woes upon them; (1) For placing burdensome requirements upon the people to which they themselves would not submit (v. 46). Religious rites should not be made irksome. (2) For the muriler of God's prophets (vv. 47-51). He showed that their attitude toward him was the same as was shown trt the prophets, by their fathers. Jestis declared. that-j their guilt was the same as that of their fathers and that their generation would be held responsible for all that the fathers had done (3) For keep Ing back the knowledge of God by false interpretstitms of the Scripture (vv. 52-54). There is perhaps no wickedness so great as that of supposed teachers of God’s Word who ke*?p the precious truths from the people by perverting its meaning. At the Master’s Feet Every servant of Jesus must often recruit his spiritual strength by sitting down st his Master's feet in prayer, In meditation, in reading Christ’s words and thinking about them. The healthiest Christian, the one who is best fitted for godly living and godly labors, is he who feeds most on Christ. The act of sitting down quietly with our crucified Redeemer at his table of love has its signification.—Theodore L. Cuyler. , -—~ A Prayer Lord Jesus, we are dissatisfled’with the life we are living! It is so passionless, so ordinary, often so cold and dead. Grant to us grace to live more constantly in thy presence, absorbing thy spirit and becoming torches of fire! May it become impossible not to speak of what we have seen and heard, that all who know ns may glorify God for what be has done I—F. B. Meyer.
