Cle ('laphourdls were originally made
ly wide becaluse of the diflicity in cutting
a them out of the logs, fewer being re
n quired to cover n given surface when
cut wide. At the present time wide'
'X clapcboards may )e obtained and are
t'- used to reproduce the appearance of
t thiese earlier siding ioards, esleclnlly
ai- in the Colonial style hocuse where their
Suse is Imost eapproplriate.
I'- The large chinncy is of brick and
tapers slightly above the first floor. No
PC pIrch rail is used, which makes it pos
Ii- sible to easily inclose the porch en
tirely with screens or storm sash. The
ee hooded windows with their shutters
re form a distinctive feature of the ex
d terior.
te True to the typical Colonial arrange
ur ment, a hail runs back through the
mn center of the first floor to the stair
ti- way. Cased openings lead from this
hall to the living room and the dining
room. The living room Is a very pleas
ant room extending back from the
front along the side of the house. A
fireplace is built into the outer wall
near the center of the room. The din
ing room, kitchen and pantry are situ
ated along the other side of the house.
Th lre is a ibuffet in tile dining room
and the pantry is fitted with shelves
and a work table. The refrigerator is
p'laiced on the back porch. but It is ar
ranged so that it opens from the pan
try. The sttair leading to the Iuasecent
is entered from a Ipassage between the
kitchen and the porch.
The secon,d floor is pleasantly ar
ranged. One large Iedrcoom above the
living room is especially pleasant.
There Is a firepiace in this room. The
closet is lighted by a front window.
Two other bedrooms are provided on
this floor. The bath is large and is fit
ted with a built-in medicine case. A
large hall makes all rooms independ
eat.
Land Built by Rivers.
The geologists say that the Gulf of
Mexico ,once extended northward to
the mouth of the Ohio. and that all the
land between that point and New Or
leans has Ieen built up by the earth
washings brought down the river.
Evert now, the strearn carries on the
average sonmethinlg like 401i.()O,O000
tons every yea:r. From the Missourni
alone contes 1:.4 tons every second, or
mnore than 10,00f.000 cubic yards ev- I
