Here is a house that looks larg-
er than it really is—und that. for
the man of moderate means. is all
important item. _

Its foundation measures only 28
by 28 feet. Yet the impression the

house gives is one of spaciousncas.

The long. slanting line of the roof,
set off by the side gable. is tho cause.
And the building is carefully design.
ed so that an exceptional amount of
living space is provided. There are
no wasted corners.

Downstairs there is a reception
hall. a long living room set off by a
fire place. an ample dining room and
a good sized kitchen, with breakfast
nook and washroom adjoining. The
sits of the porch. which runs the
fu depth of the house. is worth
noting.

0n the second floor the arrange-
ment is no less happy. Three bed-

invited to participate in the parade
and exercises. The procession will
include a. large number of floats re-
presenting the landing of Columbus
and other historic scenes in'tho life
of the great navigator. There will
be a prise for the most attractive
float and also for the best looking
group of 15 ladies on any float.
Judge Francis A. Pallotti is chair-
man of the honorary committee.
Among the prominent men invit-
ed to participate in the Columbus
Day, dedication are the Italian am-
bassador at Washington. the Italian
consul at Hartford. Governor Trum-
bull and Mayor Stevens of Hartford.

HUDSON - ESSEX
\ MERlT PROVED

In many parts of the country
Hudson-Essex dealers are demon-
strating in interesting and spec-
tacular ways the unusual strength of
the Essex all-steel coach. In one
city more than three tons of wooden
and steel beams were placed on the
roof of the body without affecting it.
After this demonstration was over.
in fact. the body was remounted on
a chassis and is being used as a
demonstrator by the distributor.

In another city—located in the
cotton belt—a dealer piled two bales
of cotton on the roof of the car and
drove around the streets. Inasmuch
as all Southerners know that a halo
of cotton weighs more than 500
pounds. the sight attracted a great
deal of attention.

The test of the wooden and steel
beams was tried by Walter Zimmer-
man of Columbus. Hudson-Essex

distributor in the mid-Ohio district.
After wooden beams and a platform

'had been placed on the roof of the

car. a set of steel beams was ob-
tained from a nearby sky-scraper
under construction. These were piled
atop the coach body until ,the total
burden on it was 6,860 pounds.

It was shown as an exhibit in the

rooms, two of them of exceptional

 

size. open on the hall. which also
gives access to a small balcony. Its

main saicsroom. As a part of the
proof of strength. salesmen opened
and closed doors of the car. show-
ing that there was no strain or dis-
tortion on the body.

"Such tests as three." according
to Mr. Jennings. Hudson-Essex die-
tributor here. “are evidences of the
Hudson-Essex claim that there is no
automobile made. at any price what-
ever. which is nioro solid. rigid and
strain-proof than the all-steel Hud-
son and Essex coaches. Not only
are they built exceptionally strong
and rigid but also they are so united
with the chassis that
structure is virtually one unit.

“The whole conception and con-
struction of the bodies is original
with Hudson-Essex. and we believe
that the results are entirely unique
in the automobile field. There has
naturally been a strong demand for
Essex coaches—so strong that al-
though they are built in the world‘s
largest single body plant. we shall
be hard-pushed to meet the public
demand."

Danbury Takes Right
Track; Is To Fight
The Pollution Evil

Offers of cooperation towards
elimination of pollution in Still Riv-
er and correction of the present
method of disposal of city garbage
in Danbury was made to the state
water commission by Mayor A.
Homer Fillow and representatives of
leading manufacturers in Danbury it
was announced following a meeting
at the capitol. this week.

Chairman Frederic C. Walcott of
the commission said that this prom-
ised cooperation of city officials.
backed by manufacturers and large
taxpayers. assures success for the
plans. of the commission in regard
to Still River, which have been un-
der consideration for some time.

The attitude of the Danbury rep~
resentatives. he said, is indicative of
the reception given the commission's
agents in most of the municipalities
of the state. He added that sub-
