A California Home 
angles of their roofs 
and gables ot wide 
spreading curves 
made fitting outlines 
for the genial land¬ 
scapes of California. 
Adci to this the 
romantic story of the 
early fathers, the 
fortitude and zeal of 
de Galvez, Junipero 
Serra and a dozen 
other leaders, and 
there is sufficient im¬ 
pulse for the attempt 
to reproduce in 
modern houses the 
beauty of a San Juan 
Capistrano, a San 
Fernando or San 
Juan Bautista. 
THE GARDEN GATE 
The above struc¬ 
tures were cruder in 
detail than some of 
the other missions; 
but in the design of 
the present house, 
the spirit of all the 
buildings of that early 
period, rather than 
that of any special 
group, has been suc¬ 
cessfully expressed 
by the architect, Mr. 
Willis Polk. There 
is an agreeable ab¬ 
sence of fussy detail ; 
the parts of the design 
are large; and wall 
surfaces have been 
broken by openings 
as little as possible.
