HOUSE AND GARDEN

and yet having a wide range of choice in 
fabrics and furniture. Of course there 
will be considerable variation in the in¬ 
teriors of each different type of house, 
since what would be appropriate for the 
furnishing of the mountain camp would 
scarcely fit the seaside bungalow, but for 
each problem one may find in the shops 
a host of suggestions. 
Not an unimportant part of the summer 
home is a garden, whether it consist of 
merely a few hardy flowers or be a place 
where in the cool of the early morning one 
may spade and hoe. In too many vacation 
homes the architectural appropriateness of 
a garden arrangement is not realized. It 
really may be made to be the connecting 
link between the house and the landscape 
and should be as carefully studied as the 
planning of the house itself. Even if it is 
merely the question of a few paths and 
shrubbery that need little or no care it is 
part of the design of the house and can 
make or unmake the final effect. It is 
manifest that nothing will ever compensate 
for the lack of a naturally advantageous 
site or that the untamed beauties of the 
country can be improved upon. But no 
matter how ideal the location, there must 
exist some evident connection between it 
and the house. 
The building of a summer home is, even 
when reduced to its simplest terms, full of 
petty trials and vexations; but when all 
is finished and it is ready to move into, 
these are quickly forgotten, and after a 
time, and the weather beginning to mellow 
its new and raw appearance and to tone 
it slowly and gradually into its surround¬ 
ings, it begins to take on a personality that 
is full compensation for the time and 
trouble spent in building. 
Restoring in Less Than a Year 
(Continued from page 415) 
but when the beds were ready we put in 
the seeds or transplanted from boxes in 
which we had sown seeds requiring more 
delicate handling. Although we knew 
really nothing about gardening, we did 
know about color, and planned to have our 
colors massed in harmonious groupings. 
So our crimsons melted into rose and rose 
into paler pinks and blue, that seemed to 
have shadows of pink, and so on into the 
violets—the crimson and white phlox were 
alongside of the wonderful violet-pink of 
the stocks, the old-fashioned gilly flower 
and the rich blue of the Chinese bell¬ 
flower ; the glorious Canterbury bells in 
pink massed with the crimson and pink 
snapdragon — along the fences and in the 
background were the rich yellows, orange 
and browns of the marigold and calendula 
with the tall artichokes and helianthus in 
the extreme back; against the heavy green 
vines and shrubbery were the stately holly¬ 
hocks and dahlias; in another luxuriant 
bed were poppies and bluets in such pro¬ 
fusion they were begging to be gathered, 
the tall blue larkspurs with the little 
Leakless Inner Tubes 
Goodyear Laminated Tubes 
Built Layer on Layer—Extra Thick 
Here is something every motor¬ 
ist should know. 
Goodyear Laminated Tubes are 
built of many thin layers—each of pure 
rubber—vulcanized together. No flaw 
can be bidden as in a thick piece of 
rubber. It is seen and eliminated. 
Every layer is perfect. 
Such a Tube can’t leak And our 
valve patch can’t leak, because it is part 
of the Tube and not stuck on. 
Remember that. Many a tire trouble 
is due to leaky Tubes. 
14% Heavier 
Goodyear Laminated Tubes are 
extra heavy. They 
have always outworn 
any tire. But this 
year we have added 
14 per cent to their 
average thickness— 
all pure rubber. 
And our Tube prices this year are 
reduced 20 per cent. So these layer 
tubes, extra-thick, now cost about the 
same as others. 
Always Gray 
Goodyear Laminated Tubes are not 
colored. They are gray—the natural 
pure rubber color. Color requires a 
large percentage of mineral adultera¬ 
tion. And minerals hold heat,a Tube’s 
worst enemy.
