America'* Long Lead '
in Home Ownership
Ah a home-bulldlng nation, the
United States unquestionably leads
all others Just at present, according
to the Common Brick Manufacturer*'
association.
The proportion of residential build
ing to all other types of construction
is growing In America each year.
The statement often Is made that one
half of America's building expenditure
goes Into homes, but an accurate
check of the different classifications
of construction shows that In 1925
nearly 62 per cent of the building In
the United States was residential,
based upon floor space area. The pro
portion In 1920 was 34 per cent ; In
1921, 52 per cent ; In 1922, 54 per cent ;
In 1928. 59 per cent, and In 1924, 61
per cent.
A 8 a home-bulldlng nation the
United States unquestionably exceeds
all others at the present time. Di
viding the various classes of construc
tion into four, namely, residential,
commercial, industrial and education
al, In 1925 we find that the second
largest volume was commercial, being
16 per cent of the total. The next
largest, Industrial, being 7V4 per cent,
and the next, educational, 6V4 per cent.
Ownert of Property
Mutt Work Together
Improvement associations afford an
inspiration and a medium for the
study of conditions, remedies and
possibilities. They make possible the
formulation and application of defi
nite. progressive policies. Without,
such policies there is only limited in
centive for the Individual property
owner to keep his holdings In first
class shape or to make new or addi
tional Improvements. But when there
are definite otandards applicable to
a whole street and observed by all the
owners of frontage, each property
owner not only enhances the value of
his ground or building, but gains this
additional value through the desir
ability of the street as a whole. Prog
ress Is slow at best If It depends on
? few enterprising property owners ;
yet there has been a disposition on
the part of many property owners In
the past to do nothing, to wait merely
for the Improvements made by others
to Increase their own values. This Is
a 8 low game ? too slow. Whatever
the cost of a general Improvement pot
Icy recommended by any of these as
toclatlons, It would be a good Invest
ment for the property holders. ? Chi

Good Building Rules
When you build you will want to
build well so that, like the descend
ants of the Colonists, future gener
ations can point with pride to the
work of your head and hands. This
thought adds a new pleasure and a
new sense of responsibility to your
?fforts.
In advising you to build well we
do not necessarily mean that you
ihould build expensively, although we
do believe that If It Is ever advls
ible to stretch a point, here 1s the
olace to do It.
Your success will depend primar
ily upon your plana, your choice ol
materials and the honesty and skill
it the workmanship employed. A
food residence is simple and dlgnl
Sed rather than fancy and fussy. A
modest home, well planned, Is fai
more desirable than a poorly planned
nanslon. ? Boston Herald.
Decorative Value ?
Paint and stain, besides being in
ralufcble as means of protection and
ronservatlon, are the best decorative
mediums we have. Before choosing
a color scheme for a house, one simple
rule shbuld be heeded, a roof should
be In perfect harmony with Its sur
roundings or In definite contrast to
them. This involves a study of the
style of architecture, the character
of the setting, and the geogrsphlcal
location of the house. Kvery roof in
iin Individual problem. Among trees,
hard roof-llnes, developed In strong
colors, will contrast pleasingly with
the softness of the leaves. But against
a sharp horlron, a color which will
soften the fdlhouette is deslrnble.
Clean-Up Committees
The Kansas City Real Rstate board
has appointed five committees to take
charge of an Improvement campaign,
each committee to be appointed to a
definite section of the downtown re
tail <1 1st riot. It Is planned to ellmt
nate unsightly conditions on vacant
property, to clean up vacant store
rooms, to banish overhead slgtis and
to remove "the sidewalk display ol
merchandise.
The campaign follows an appeal foi
greater orderliness and beanty In the
business sections of American cftle*
made at the annual convention of the
National Association of Ileal FQatate

by H. R. Ennls of rfansas City, for

Just Ending Plight.

of thb officers and sailors who hap
pened to be near the river front of
the navy yard did not know it was the
intrepid Rodgers that was going to

Every resource of the big yard was
wrought into play in the rescue. The
