Mrs. T. C. Gill, of the Essoin
Club, has recently remodeled herl
kitchen and changed iti from an j
oblong shape to the very popular j
L stiaped kitchen. Part of the;
back porch was Included in the|
new kitchen and the remulnder
of the porch enclosed to form a
compact pantry for storing canned
goods. The two larger walls of the1
kitchen are lined wit'h built-in j
cabinets with ample storage space'
for dishes, food supplies and
cooking utensils. One cabinet, just
beside the door to the bed room
is used for cleaning equipment
and another section of the same
cabinet is used for overshoes and
wraps. The kitchen has a south
west* exposure, a glass door on the
south and two windows ou the
west which provide ample natural
light even on cloudy days. The |
walls and cabinets are painted !
Ivory while the edges of the shel
ves, knobs, and handles on cabi
net doors and drawers are painted
red. It Is made even more at- 1
tractive by small shelves near the'
window which are used for potted
or cut flowers. With a double'
sink, windows just above it l'or!
an outdoor view, and (lowers on
either side, plenty of hot and cold
running water, dish washing in |
Mrs. Gill's kitchen Is not drudg
ery. It is an attractive kitchen 1
of which Mrs. Gill, or any woman, ;
might just'ly be proud.
Storage Space Major Considera
tion In the Farm Home Says
Miss Braxton
"Storage space often presents a
major problem in many farm
homes," states Miss Braxton,
county chairman of the Better
Homes Campaign.
The closet should have suffic
ient natural or artificial light for
, its conteuts to be easily seen. If
the light from the room is not
sufficient, no electricity available, <
this can be accomplished by tbe
i use of a flashlight hung ou a cord
land tacked Just inside Mie door.
811dlng doors may be used to
1 save space In the room or to make
the contents of the closet more
accessible. Doors to walk-In
closets should fit tightly at the
boMom to keep out dust.
A cabinet with horizontal shel- 1
ves Is very satisfactory for shoes, ,
since it can be converted into
many other uses, particularly
when the closet is rearranged to ,
meet children's needs, Miss Brax
ton states. Tilted shelves or racks
require less floor space than hori
zontal ones, but lack the advan
tages of convertibility. Drawers
or trays are more convenient than
shelves for the storage of folded
clothing. The rod on whlctf to
hang clothes should be placcd high
enough to allow six inches below
garments hanging from it, and to
permit cleaning the floor without
dlstrubing the garments. Hooks
should he placed as near the door
as possible, never back of tho rod.

REYNOLDS PUSHES PLAN TO TAKE
BERMUDA AND OTHER ISLANDS
FROM BRITAIN AND FRANCE
? ?
Is Glad Puerto Rico Already Under United States
Flag and Americanized
<B? Federal Service Syndicate)
Washington, D. C. ? Announcing his intention to press tor
immediate action on his proposals to request the President to
enter into negotiations tor acquisition of British and French
islands in the Caribbean, and other waters nearby the United'
States, Senator Robert R. Reynolds, of North Carolina, said today
he is convinced acquisition o f these areas is vitally Important to
defense plans tor the United States, and proposed that the United
States Possession of Puerto Rico be made headquarters tor de
fense operations in the Caribbean. ?
He said he considered the Caribbean areas of especial importance
due to their location with respect to the Panama Canal and the Monroe
Doctrine, and proposed that the British and French Islands be taken
over in partial payment of the war debts. The plan Includes acquiring
Bermuda and New Providence and.
Bimlnl Islands, in the Bahamas,
British Honduras, anfl Islands
owned by France between New
foundland and
Nova Scotia.
The North Car
olina Senator
said he feels
also that the
United States
should acquire
lower California
from Mexico,
and Cocos Island
off the roast of
Costa Rica. ?
Hon Reynolds
Commenting upon the vital im
portance of the Caribbean area.
Senator Reynolds said he feels the
United Stales can be "mighty glad
that the important Island of Puerto
Rico is already under the American
flag and well Americanized." He
pointed out that construction now
under way at Puerto Rico will
make it a Gibraltar commanding
approaches to the entire area He
said acquiring the foreign islands
would banish possibility ol a sur
prise submarine or bombing plane
attack In that section.
Because of the vital importance
of this area In the defense picture,
Senator Reynolds said he wa3
heartily in favor of a resolution
passed by the Senate and now
pending before the House providing
for a Congressional Investigation
of the serious economic crisis In
.Puerto Rico.
Puerto Rlcan officials contend
that the crisis results largely from
the Inflexible Imposition of the
wage-hour law on the Island's In
dustries, and the sugai act which
drastically restricted production In
Puerto Rico as well as continental
United States In order to guarantee
a large portion of the domestic
market to Cuba, the Philippines
and other foreign countries.
Senator Reynolds pointed out
that Bermuda is only 530 miles di
rectly east of the coast of North
Carolina, while the Bahamas are
virtually in the same waters as
Florida. In addition to the defense
angle. Senator Reynolds said that
acquisition of Bermuda would give
American transatlantic planes a
hopping off place from American
territory, while acquisition of the
French islands between Newfound
land and Nova Scotia would give an
additional jumping off place to
American planes flying the north
ern route.
Although declining to commit
himself upon the application of
Puerto Rico for udmisslon irtto the
Union as a forty-ninth State pend
ing their investigation of th'- p
posal. Senator Ueynolds said that
he is very glad of the movement
because it indicates the Islander:-,
arc. glad to be under the American
flag. ?
"I consider Puerto Rico of vital
Importance to defense plans ol the
United States, and a contenti-rt
population Is very Important," he
said. "Therefore I am In favor of
doing everything within reason to
keep the Puerto Rlcans satisfied to
be a part of the United States, and
I feel that this Includes giving due
consideration to their economic
problcms. and regarding their re
quests to Congress in n
