MME^OTES This porch is a thoroughly delight fol spot In summer, partly because It was so carefully planned when the house was built—partly because its furnishings were chosen with such good taste. Because it is on the east side of the house it is shaded all afternoon, and because it faces the garden and not the street it Is delightfully secluded. The awnings, at either end, are very gay, striped in orange, green and black. The Chinese rattan chairs ami lea table of hour glass shape, are black and the cushions are orange or green. The hanging center light Is dis guised by a yellow Chinese lantern and glows romantically at night quite like a pale summer moon. {Copyright, J&2S.)
