For a Corner Property . i3. va" ll Illustrated is a house especially planned for a cornersite, but never the-less may advantageously be placed on even a comparatively narrow lot. One feature is the gen erously proportioned sleeping forch at the rear of the second floor. The balance of the. sleeping accommodation-is likewise well-considered, each room being diagonally venti lated and conveniently near he bath room. The arrangement of the first floor leaves little to be desired either in convenience or attractiveness. The wide openings between the living rooms are effective in increasing the apparent spaciousness. ; Hollow tile is - employed in the construction of the house w:lls the exterior surfaces being finished with- white cement plaster. The roof is covered with slate, the pre vailing seagreen coloring of which is pleasantly varied by purple and reddish slates to give a mottled effect. To conform with Colonial usage, the exterior trim is painted i1r the blinds at the ivuty 1 1 n upper windows are finished in dark blue green.

N'. v OMAHA THRIFT COMMITTEE Charles L. Mattsbn, .formerly of the Peters Trust company, and Wil liam H. Smails of George & Co. have 'associated themselves in the real estate investment business and plan to construct 40 dwelling houses in Dundee this year, it was announced yesterday. Mr. Smarts announced the pur chase of 90 lots in Dundee, located !on Forty-ninth avenue, between Farnam and Dodge streets, and on Fiftieth street and Fiftieth avenue, between Dodge and Howard streets, , from George & Co. The aggregate ;.cost of the purchase is about $100,- 000, Mr. Sniails says. ! . The houses to he constructed wHl be of the two-story type, with six or seven rooms, frame and stucco. 'Architects will first draw a sketch , of the entire site on which they are ,to be 'built, to enable purchasers to jview it as it will look when the houses are completed. Separate I plans will then be drawn for each ' house. Mr. Smails also announced that all land between Nicholas and Ham ilton streets,, from Fifty-first street West to Fifty-second street, had been acquired from George & Co., and that' it will' be improved . and built ' into a bungalow section. Streets will be paved and graded agd the property will be made into one of the most desirable Dundee residence districts, he said. "Mr. Mattson and myself formed our partnership and made our plans with the idea of filling the great de mand for honest-built houses of the six and seven-room type," said Mr. Smails. "There has been, and will continue to be, a great demand for small houses, well built.". Mr. Smails has been connected with George & Co. for five years. Previous to that time he was in the lumber business. Mr. Mattson was with the Peters Trust company for seveq years. They will have of fices "in the City National Bank building. a Moderation Cited as Sure Means of Living To a Ripe Old Age New York, Jan. 17. "Don't worry and be moderate in all things if you want to live to be 70 years old or more." This longevity recipe was given recently by Dr. George L. Meylan, director of the Columbia university gymnasium, after an in vestigation of the modes of, life of those who live long and those who, die prematurely. "There is abundant evidence," said Dr. Meylan, "to justify the belief that the average duration of life could be increased from 10 to 20 years by the! general adoption of the principle, moderation in all things. Deaths from infectious diseases and violence are to be expected." Speaking of the characteristics of people 70 years and older, Dr. Mey lan finds that they do not worry, have a happy disposition and eat, drink, exercise and enjoy themselves moderately. - "Exactly the opposite conditions," added Dr. Meylan, "are found al most invariably in persons between 30 and 70 years who suffer from or ganic disease of the nervous diges tive, excretory or circulatory sys tems and premature senility, but the vicious circle of unhygienic living usually includes overstimulation, ex cesses in pleasure, abuse of drugs and worry." Great Cross, 1 ,00CT Feet Long, at Shrine Near Red Cliff, Colo. Glenwood Springs, Colo., Jan. 17. One of the greatest religious spec tacles in the annals of Christianity in the Rocky mountain region will mark the dedication of a proposed shrine on the Mount of the Holy Cross, near Red Cliff, if the plans of Rev. J. P. Carrigan, rector of St Stephens Roman Catholic church of this city, materialize. Rer. Father Carrigan is receiving the co-operation of the Holy Cross association in his efforts to estab lish a sit not only for the national shrine, bnt also for a monastery that will be occupied -by the Ancient Or der of Carmelite monks. The archi tecture is intended to rival the artistic old abbeys in the old Roman towns that dot the Maritime Alps in southern France and northern Italy. Towering 13,978 feet into the clouds, the Mount of the Holy Cross commands a wonderful panorama of the mountain lakes, picturesque cas cades and great stretches of timber land in the Holy Cross national for est below. A great natural cross nearly 1,000 feet long, with its two arms measuring several hundred feet, reposes on the western lace ot the peak, hence the name. . Girl's Confession Ruse to Permit Father to Escape Bradford, Pa., Jan. 17. Margaret Dicella, 17, can marry anyone of a score or more of men. She has turned down proposals galore. The little Italian girl has won the hearts of the youths of her own peo ple by the cute way in which sht protected her father from the clutches of the law. Margaret's father was accused of killing a man, but was at once freed when his daughter confessed that she fired the bullet. When her dad was safe in Italy Margaret admitted that her confession was a lie and was given only to allow her father time to get away. There was nothing for the authorities to go out iree tne eirl and forget the father. "I'm too young to marry," she tells all bidders for her hand. In "Coming Back" Atlantic, Ga., Jan. 17. Uncle Sam is going to give his prisoners . a chance to "come back." The government has perfected a plan for the establishment of an "honor farm" at Panthersville, com prising about 1,400 acres and rep resentis an outlay of approximately $160,000. It will be run in connection with the federal penitentiary here and is to be under the supervision of Warden Fred G. Zerbst Two hundred or more of men whose conduct in the penitentiary has entitled them to more liberty will be selected by the warden to work the farm. Not only will they be better housed and allowed more extensive freedom bat the prison ers will actually share in the profits derived from their work. Seventy five per cent of the farm's earnings will be given to destitute familes and the other 25 per cent will be kept for the workers and turned over to them when their time ex pires. "Men will gravitate back to their own kind unless they have learned to like another." That is the way Warden Zerbst has changed the old maxim, "Water will seek its own level," to fit his own needs in the manner in which he is endeavoring to help federal offenders "come back."
