SPLIT ENTRY HOUSE THAT IS DIFFERENT

This is a split entry type of house that is different — note the position of the fireplace in the living room which leaves so much furniture arranging space in the L shaped living-dining room. The kitchen is large enough that there is a handy nook space without sacrificing cupboard space. Kitchen and Bath- Toom plumbing are back to back for economical installation. This is a little “beauty” of a house, suitable for the small or medium size family. Designed for N.H.A. approval, working drawings are available at the Building Centre, 116 B. Broad- way, Vancouver 10. Send 25c to cover cost of mailing for our new plan booklet, “Select Home Designs.”

Statistics show Canadians are becoming two-car owners at an increasing rate.

In many homes, however, the second car is exposed to wind, snow, cold, sun, and rain all year. Often there is only a breezeway, Partial protection for a single car.

An inexpensive solution is con- struction of a two-car garrage. It's also a solution for one-car families who have a small home and need extra storage space, or extra park- ing space for visitors.

A two-car garrage 20 x 20 feet, or a large one-car space 14 feet wides allows for work bench space, and storage of garden equipment, bicycles and other household items. Smallest practi-

Garage of concrete block easy project for handyman

cal width for a garage is 10 feet. A good bet for its construction is concrete blocks, which will pro- tect it from fire and give insula- tion value at a low initial cost. Labor costs will be low if a builder does the job. Ora handy- man can also build his own, bearing a tew points in mind.

Prefab doors, for instance, are usually built to fit an opening eight feet wide, seven feet high.

It won’t be easy to cut block if the length and width of the garage are in multiples of half the standard block length, or eight inches. In calculating the Width of window and door open- ings, the same rule applies—use multiples of half the block length.

Height of the openings can be calculated as multiples of the full block height, eight inches.

Find out from a builder what the frost line is in your area, then pour footings below this line, on a firm base.

Lay walls plumb and true. For corners, doors and windows there are special units avallable from concrete manufacturers. They make a neater job with less work.

A building supplies dealer will carry the proper mortar, with in- structions for mixing it. A good mix is one sack of masonry cem- ent, three cubic feet of damp, loose mortar sand, and water.

Mortar joints are three-eights of an inch thick, and excess mortar is carefully seraped off, and the joints “tooled” with a round tool especially made for the purpose.

Conerete brick or block manu- facturers can usually supply or obtain plans and specifications, and all the’ necessary information for the prospective builder.

people thought that two inches of insulation was enough. That was all that Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation required, so why get more?

Recent studies of fuel saving possible with higher levels of in- sulation are changing that think- ing.

While two inches of insulation will save 26 per cent of the fuel required to heat a house with an uninsulated ceiling, four inches of approved type insulation will

these Five Points of Good Insula- tion when you choose an insulat- ing material:

1. Is it easy to apply so you can do the job yourself?

2. Is it fire-safe?

3. Is it free-flowing so it fits snugly into corners.

4. Is it clean—both bug and rodent proof?

5. Does it give maximum fuel saving?

CHAPLIN’S GREATEST

Chaplin's finest coming to Alston

THE GREAT DICTATOR, Octo- ber 9 and 10, also Saturday matinee

Sogmode-masterpiece pro- wuced, written and directed by Charles Chaplin is his finest creation.

In it he plays a dual role; that] of a humble barber living in the ghetto, and that of a great dict- ator of a power mad nation. With him are Paulette Goddard, Jack Oakie, Reginald Gardiner and Henry Daniell. Oakie, a perfect comedian plays as a rival dictat- or and is outstanding as “Garit- sch,” the Directator’s chief aide.

This is Chaplin's finest role— hear him play the organ, piano, the cello, accordian and even the harmonica, see again the pathetic little figure of the man known the world over for the familiar gift he brings—universal laughter.

cat ON A HOT TIN ROOF, October 12, 13 and 14.

Based on Tennesse Williams suc- cessful stage play and photo- graphed in color, “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” is a tense adult drama.

The author’s name, the fame of the play, and the widely public- ized fact that Elizabeth Taylor played the role under the strain of her husband’s death, makes the picture an outstanding at- traction. Miss Taylor’s perform- ance is excellent.

Basically the story is of family conflict, centering around a weak plantation owner, expecting to die of cancer, who is surrounded by greedy bickering relatives out to grab all they can get.

The cast is top calibre. Paul Newman is outstanding as Miss Taylor’s alcoholic husband, Burl

Ives gives a top performance as the wealthy southerner, as also

does Judith Anderson as Ive's brow-beaten wife. They are well supported by Jack Cameron,

Madeline Sherwood and others.

This emotion-packed drama with its frank talk of life and sex is top entertainiimeint, a picture for sophisticated adults only.

THE ROOTS OF HEAVEN, Oc-

tober 15 and 16

Twentieth Century Fox went in- to the heart of primative French Equatoral Africa to film this real- istic unusual and intriguing jun- gle drama based on the prize win- ning novel by Roman Gary.

The cast is top-flight including such performers as Errol Flynn, Trevor Howard, exotic French actress Juliette Greco, Orson Welles, Eddie Albert and Paul Lukas.

Roots of Heaven is a soul- searching tale, of a man with a strange mission. In color, this flim proves fascinating to watch.
