SHINGLED HOUSE WITH AMPLE PROVISION FOR OUTDOOR LIVING

large central liall, but is screened by the arrangement shown in the elevation. On the floor plan this is called an entry, but all that separates it from the living room is a high-backed scat with a screen of spindles above extending to the ceiling. This gives the same effect as a sofa or settle set out into the room, and yet shuts off the front door as much as is necessary. This seat faces the fireplace, and heavy beams running across the ceiling bind

T X this house shingles are used for the walls ■■■ and Ruberoid for the roof. There is a comparatively small porch covered by a pergola in front of the house, but at the back there is plenty of room for outdoor life. The porch opening from the living room is as large as the room itself, and is intended to be used as an outdoor living room in summer and as a sun room in winter. The other porch might be used as an outdoor dining room or given over to the maid, whose room looks out upon it. The maid's room in this house is placed next to the kitchen, because we have had so many requests from housekeepers for such an arrangement. The room connects with both the kitchen and the pantry, and through the pantn,- with the porch.

The front door'L opens directlv into the wai.sscoted and si'i.NULiiu skat facinc. hall firkplace in iiolsi; no. 102.
