H ouse & Garden’s 
House Planning- Number 
C AN you tell from the architect’s 
blueprints how your new house 
will look? Do you know how 
—and when—to suggest changes with¬ 
out adding ruinous alteration charges 
to your bill? 
Can you check up on your con¬ 
tractor? Can you supervise intelli¬ 
gently the expenditure of your $5,000 
or $50,000—before it is spent? 
If you are building a house, or are 
going to build a house, you must know 
how to read plans. You must know 
the last minute when the breakfast 
room can be moved to the sunny side 
of the house or another bath added 
without tearing out the south wall. 
You must know when to be firm, and 
when to submit to the inevitable. 
The HOUSE PLANNING NUMBER 
—the November number—of HOUSE & 
GARDEN has been made particularly for 
you. It tells all that the amateur home 
builder needs to know in order to get a really 
satisfactory house at somewhere near the 
originally estimated cost. The quarter you 
spend on it may save you a thousand dollars’ 
worth of contractor’s extras and a great deal 
of grief.

Important New Fiction 
By SIR GILBERT PARKER 
The World For Sale 
A vivid story of the Canadian 
Northwest picturing the rivalry be¬ 
tween an empire-builder and a gipsy 
for the girl who loved both the hearth 
and the wild, and the rivalry between 
the inhabitants of two lawless fron¬ 
tier towns. Parker weaves into a 
fascinating whole the loves, hates, and 
ambitions of Indians, gipsies, French 
coureurs de bois, a musician, a wastrel, 
and the great builder.

The Rising Tide 
Mrs. Deland tells here a story of 
to-day, of human lives as affected by 
the present spirit of unrest—the ever¬ 
lasting drama, tragical and ridiculous 
—of Age holding Youth by the heels 
—Age gets kicked, and Youth gets a 
tumble! She shows the pain and 
stupidity of the older generation, and 
the pain and arrogance of the younger 
generation. It is a book certain to be 
much discussed.

The Thirteenth 
Commandment 
“The best novel ever written by 
Rupert Hughes, and is, indeed, one 
of the best American novels that has 
appeared for many a month. . . . 
There is an abundance of humor . . . 
but he is just serious enough, for he 
is dealing with a widespread and 
dangerous American tendency.”— 
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
