A Home of Your Own BASIC CHARACTERISTICS Everyone wants something slightly different when it comes to choosing a house plan. No two families have exactly the same housing needs. But all well-designed houses have something in common, certain basic characteristics that are the mark of good planning, Plenty of light, ample cupboard space and rooms of sufficient size to accommodate the furni- ture, these are the three musts on which all home owners in- sist. There are other points which denote careful designing. Among these are easy access to the basement, easy communi- cation between various parts of the house and privacy for the bedrooms, A house plan is something you will have to live with for a long time. Much of the joy in owning a home will depend on this initial choice. O--O--O GOOD DESIGN Architects agree that simple lines and good balance make for good design. Besides, simplicity is easier on the pock- etbook. Something to bear in mind is that your floor plan can influence the exterior appear- ance of your home, and by the same token, exterior appear- ance can affect the floor plan. This is one reason why you must decide if the architect- ural style you prefer fits in with your room arrangement. Simple design gives you greater freedom in planning the interior. If you have ever been inside a house built with a turret at one corner you'll real- ize how difficult it was for the architect to make sense out of the room planning. Style can be a very bad guide to a person planning to build or buy a house. For example the senti- mental appeal of a Cape Cod cottage can blind a prospective homeowner to serious basic faults 'in the house. Materials, colour, scale, proportion, size and shape of windows all mean much more to the basic attract- iveness of a house than does style. O--O--O OPEN PLANNING There is quite a trend to- wards open planning in today's homes. More and more, you will find living and dining room combinations or kitchen and family room combinations. Sometimes a degree of privacy is lost with these plans, but the airy, open effect they give the smaller home is well worth it. Wise furniture arrangement can usually compensate for any disadvantages of open planning, but much thought must be given to avoid giving rooms a cluttered appearance. Be sure to mal<e best use of hallways, or the rooms will become avenues of traffic with the furni ture arranged along the walls in club -car fashion. "L" shap- ed rooms, furniture at right angles to the walls, screen and folding doors are all func- tional. There is no best living room shape, although today the "L' with the dining space in the smaller part is very popula" i. OF MANY THINGS By Ambrose Hills RACIAL PREJUDICE None of us is entitled to be smug about racial prejudice. To some degree, a little bit of it is somehow worked into us through our environment, This applies to the persecuted as well as to the persecutors. The negro who feels totally un- prejudiced toward whites is rare indeed, and the whites who have no tinge of prejudice against negroes come scarce. The same applies to the other races. Deplore this situation as much as we may, it does exist. I believe a white family worries if a son or daughter marries a negro, and it prob- ably works in reverse. Facing facts, each family is aware that the couple's love would have to withstand a tremendous social pressure. But as I understand it, the negroes are not asking to be loved or taken into white fami- lies. All they ask is their law- ful rights to be served in public restaurants, or other public places of business, and the right to vote freely for candi- dates of their choice. The fact that they must en- dure so much to gain these rights—as gain them they sure- ly will—is a terrible indictment of our free system of govern- ment. I feel sorry for the whites who are so foolishly bad- gering and harrassing the negroes. They are inviting" countless years of bitterness and recrimination. They are erod- ing the very freedom that has made their own lives so pleas- ant and_profitabie. The United States is ones the greatest and most genero nations in the world. Part of its greatness stemmed from the fact that it offered sanctuary and opportunity to immigrants - from all parts of the world. Surely now, it will be big enough to grant complete free- dom to the negroes who have worked for it and fought brave- ly for it so many times. Not because negroes are all angels, not because all negroes have behaved well; but because the United States should know that the negro hasn't a decent chance to come into his own until he is free in a real and honest sense. Canada, too, ought to take a new look at its immigration laws. Until we do, we have no right to be unduly critical of the United States on the score of racial prejudice! SAVE NOW WITH...
