URGED TO BUILD HOMES NOW
Leber Department Prempta Then ln<
- tending Cenatriietlon to Begin
the Work at Onaa.
The home builder—he who bolide
for hla Immediate use rather than for
rental purpoaee—eppeare to be getting
under way with bla helldlng plana.
Thla eapeclally Is noted In the central
West. The hoine-bolldljM program
will be facilitated aod augmented If
email tnveatment money le'made avail
able for budding loco a. ta one or twtf
coramnnltlee thla la being attempted
by private organisation* brought to-
gether tor thla aole purpose. In other
and more numeroua daee the regular
banka an giving thought to the prob-
lem. The helldtng-and-loen lntereste
already have formulated e plan under
which e eyetem of federal home loan
banka woeld enable them to rediscount
their flrat real-eatate mortgagea aod
make available for further loans more
than $1,000,000,000 of tbelr eaeeta.
While the Department of Labor le
endeavoring to co-operate with state
end munldpel euthorltlee In getting
under way road building and public
Improvement* and with private Inter-
eata In their more extensive building
operations, It Is convinced that home
building, for the uae of the builder
rather than for rental, moat be looked
to aa an Important factor In providing
better employment for labor during
the tranaltlon from war to peace pro-
duction, end for the .atlmulntlon of
business. For this reason the Depart-
ment of Lebor Is msklng e determined
drive for a nation-wide "Own your
home" campaign,—Chlcego Evening
Post.
IMPROVE THE SCHOOL YARD
ghould Be Second to No Pert ef the
City In Its Appesl to Lovere
ef Aeeuty.
The average rural school gronnd can
atand considerable beautifying. Some
of these barren spots, where the
young In the country learn their three
It's, are blossoming like the rose and
more will do ao aa a result of the
work done by county bome demon-
otratlon agents. Spring and fall are
the time for aettlng out shrubbery and
treea. Many home economic workera
celebrated arbor day thla spring. Soma
of tboee who didn't have held local
celebrations this fall.
In fairfax county, Tlrginla. the
home demonstration agent and the
people of tha neighborhood completely
transformed laat spring the Red Hill
school yard. The teachers, with the
pupils and patrons, came early on
the day appoloted. bringing with them
a splendid array of trees and shrubs,
all given by the patrona. The founda-
tlona of the building erere massed with
hemlock, laurel, holly, and roae bushea.
Young trees were planted In atrateglc
positions end lilac bushes were plsced
In. dumpe. Around the drain, spice
wood bnsbee were plented. The re-
sult waa e complete transformation of
the formerly bare and ugly yard. At
noon a picnic lunch waa aerved.

SIMPLICITY AND BEAUTY
IN DAINTY NEGLIGEES
The average woman may have little
use for very elaborate negligee* but
for daintiness, loveliness of color aod
almplicity she bas an Instinctive long-
ing. These always appeal to her and
speclallsta In the manufacture of neg-
ligees understand this—so that the
bulk of their output comblnea Just
these elements. "Negligee" Is a term
that Includea a very wide variety of
garments—inspired by the garb of
many peoples—for It Is in the seclu-
sion of home that women may Indulge
themselves In the fanciful. Japan and
China contribute much and we have
Interpreted their Ideas to suit our
selves besides buying generously of
their productions. France Is an ex-
haustless source of Inspiration and
we use Ita wonderful creations all the
tim* adopting and adapting Ideas ac-
cording to our own needs.
Our needs demand at least ten neg-
ligees that are simple and pretty,
daintily made In lovely colors, to one
that Is elaborate.
Morning Jackets and coate of taffeta
ailk In gay color* to be worn with
lace-trimmed petticoats are popular,
because they embody the thlnga we
like best, and negltgeee of the char
ecter of the two ahown here are In
constant demand. All these eppear in
flower-like colors—pink, roae, bin*
yellow, lavender, light end vivid
greens, occasionally cerise end rich
reds. Imagine the negligee shown at
the left of the picture In any of then
lovely colors and you will find your-
self deciding as to which one would
suit you best. In this model a long
close-flttlng nnd plain slip of box-plait-
ed crepe-de-chine Is the easiest thing
that ever waa to slip Into. Over It
tnere is a short kl mono-Uke Jacket—
n" slip-over garment—with scalloped
edge buttonholed with embroidery
silk, and small sprays of embroidered
flowers scattered over it. It conid
hardly be almpler—or prettier.
The negligee at the right haa
straight under-sllp of charmeuse satin
with a long-draped overgarment of
the same material edged with lac*
The material Is gathered at the shoul-
ders and sides snd arranged In a dra-
pery that widens at the Mp end nar-
rows toward the bottom. It baa the
effect of a long coat with ribbon that
tlea across the front below the walet-
line, to confine it, but this ie a ona>
piece negligee easy to get Into and aa
pretty as any one can nsk for. Autumn
brides will be Interested In these Una
examples of American designing aad
so will every other woman who ba
eyes to see them.
