A G R 
OF THREE 
HOUSES 
With this issue House & 
Garden starts a new de¬ 
partment. The Little 
Portfolio is devoted to 
good interiors; this new 
group of pages will show 
three houses each num¬ 
ber. They will be small 
houses mainly, with an 
occasional larger one. If 
possible, the pages will 
be devoted to the work 
of one architect at a 
time. The group this 
issue Shows three mod¬ 
erate priced houses by 
Dwight James Baum, the 
first being a small subur¬ 
ban home with a Dutch 
roof 
The upstairs rooms have 
plenty of head space for 
the windows. Four cham¬ 
bers occupy the corners, 
with a hall and stairs 
and a bath down the 
middle. Each bedroom 
has an alcove and cross 
ventilation and light 
A simple disposition of 
rooms is found down¬ 
stairs—a central, house- 
depth hall, with a living 
room and porch on one 
side and dining room, 
service and kitchen on 
the other. The porches 
on both ends are paved
