A terra cotta jar for colour, where the lawn meets the 
living room—a bit of irrepressible greenery to soften its 
classic lines—yellow sunlight warming the clear stone 
greys. Can’t you use a corner like this in your new 
house? . . . But you’ll have to begin at the beginning 
and plan for it; or any other idea that you hope some day 
to translate into terms of brick or wood, stone or stucco. 
And whether you want an idea or a suggestion, finished 
house plans or workable specifications, you’ll find them 
in the November House Planning Number—the next num¬ 
ber of House y Garden. 
The fall's the time for planning, just as spring’s the time 
for building. In the fall you select your plans, decide 
what to do and what to avoid; and when you actually 
begin to break ground, know exactly what you’re intend¬ 
ing to do. This number will help you to make your scrap 
hook now and save on building bills later. It lias photo¬ 
graphs and articles on all sorts of house planning features 
—one on Italian architecture and its place in an American 
landscape—the evolution of a house plan—how a decora¬ 
tor works—the building of a guest house—pages of plans 
for small houses—and quantities of other invaluable things.
