House & Garden 
THE POOL BY 
Pools are most often seen as a formal part 
of garden design, studiously placed on axis, 
and at a distance from the house. Here the 
pool is intimately related to the house, and 
given a setting that shows real imagination. 
The high water-level is especially effective. 
THE DOORSTEP 
The roughing of the sturdy post is excellent 
in its restraint, well in character with the in¬ 
formality of the house, and not too artificially 
primitive. The house, of which this is a 
glimpse, was designed for C. W. Morris, at 
Haverford, Pa., by Mellor, Meigs and Howe
