Dixon, of Ot- tawa, has managed to include sev- eral interesting features in this compact three - bedroom frame bungalow which is under 900 square feet in area. Some of these fea- tures not usually found in a house of this size include a large kitchen - dining -room, an entrance vestibule and a walk-in clothes closet in the master bedroom. The house is particularly adapt- able for a narrow lot frontage and has a protected front entrance lead- ing from the carport. A further point .of interest is the basement which is divided into two areas, with the laundry and furnace grouped on one side leaving the other side free for a .recreation room or other uses, The total f`toor area is 898 square feet -and- the •exterior -dimensions are 24 feet, four inches, by 39 feet, eight inches, excluding carport. Working drawings for the house, known as Design 295, may be ob- tained from Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation. BEDROOM 11..6" • 9,10" e1.. see BEDROOM 1•i"y 8'• s 1 R DINING ROOM !

Winter Foundation Work This . is the eighth in a ser- ies of articles by Central ' Mortgage- and Housing Cor- poration, .Federal housing ag- ' ency, on building a house. Provided proper precautions are taken, a concrete foundation can .be poured even in severe winter weather. Tbe same rules for the pouring of footings in winter ap- ply to foundations. One of the most important precautions is to protect the concrete from frost damage while it is hardening, or "setting" A foundation is a larger mass than a footing and greater surface is exposed to the Weather. particu- lar care must be taken to guard against freezing; The concrete it- self generates a certain amount of heat by chemical action while hardening. In extreme weather this alone will not be adequate and the concrete materials are pre- heated at the mixing plant before being loaded. When low temperatures prevail extra protection is also required at the site. If the sub -floor is al- realdy up "salamanders" or other temporary heating units can be placed inside the foundation. Heat- ing the outside of the Wall is more of a problem. In this case tar- paulins are often used in conjunc- HAS YOUR WIRING BEEN CHECKED LATELY HOME NOW!

If salanianders are used, fre- quent checks should be made to ensure that they are working ef- fectively. If they are' being left unattended during the night the fuel supply should be checked ev- ery evening. Special provisions should be made for weekends. An expensive foundation can be ruined, or its strength greatly re- duced, if it suffers frost damage, Concrete, once weakened by freez- ing while "setting", cannot be im- proved. Winter construction is practical only if every precaution is taken to prevent such damage.

That Last Cigarette the Last Cigarette A +cigarette smoked in bed could easily be the smoker's last cigar- ette if he falls asleep and the light- ed butt falls into the bedclothes Many fires have been started in this way, with effects fatal not on- ly to the smoker but also to other people"in the building. A sick per- son, whose doctor permits him to smoke should do so only when someone else is in the room or, if he is alone, he should have a large ash tray on a metal tray or plate. A smoke when seated in up- holstered furniture is also unsafe, if the smoker is tired a,nd likely to doze. When Junior Enters.
