* ('apt. S. W. Parks was telling a par- I
ty of his friends a few days ago of the |
wu? uppeurance or tne many thatchedroofed
house* the American soldiers
saw in Belgium and France during
the World war. "One sees thatched
roofs on nearly every hand In the
country districts of France and Belgium
and many in the towns and cities
over there." said Capt. Parks. "They
are odd-looking to most Americans.
Thatched roofs are made of reeds
and grass, platted and tied together
with bark taken from twigs and trees,
and it frequently Is made to hang
Sown several feet below the eaves of
ie buildings. I am told that it possesses
lasting qualities that sometimes
extend over 25 years or more
and is almost Impervious to the rains
and snows. Thatched roofs over
there are seen principally on outbuild,
ings, but not a few homes are also
seen with thatched roofs. Now and
then, but not often, one sees a thatched
roof in England.
