Chicago.—The home of the tuture
is to be filled with synthetic pro
ducts.
There will be no wood frames at
doorways and windows, no wood
floors, and not ever, wood in the fu
niture. Virtually everything vn the
house, including clothing of the oc
cupants. will >»e made from pro
ducts produced by scientist from
raw stuffs provided by nature.
Such was the prediction of Dr
Gerald Wendt, dean of the school ot
chemistry and physics of Pennsyl
vania State coUcf,e at the American
Chemical Society Institue en Evans
ton.
Dr. Wendt described the home of
the future, not >s a vague dream but
as an actuality which is bound to
come.
"Everything about the home of the
future will be made of synthetic ma
terials," Dr WmUt declared. “The
house will be built of concrete and
steel both synthetic materials. The
walls will be furnished in lacquered
metal, a treatment which will lend
itself to an infinite number of decor
ative effects.

Lacquered waits will be a boon to
the housekeeper, (or in cleaning
house she can was.i them down witli
a hose. The floors, covered with
composition flooring, may also be
scrubbed in that manner.
Furniture and dishes for this
home in the future will be made of
'oakelite.
Picking up from his desk a yellow,
amber-like cigarette holder, a black
and red fountain pen. a blue fleck
ed pencil. Dr. Wendt pointed to
them as examples of the variety of
efforts possible with bakelite. Its
further advantages, he pointed out,
are that it is not stained by water
or by alcohol. It is not easily broken
and it is practically fireproof.
All From Fabrics.
‘•Draperies in the home will all be
made of rayon.'* Dr Wendt continu
ed. "The rugs too. will be made of
this fabric which science has con
verted from wood pulp, corn stalks,
and other plants which yield cel
lulose in quantities, for cellulose is
the structural frame work of plant
life. Upholstery will be a fabricold,
a leatherlike maier.al which can al
son be washed with a hose.
"The products which we are now
using in our house we are beginning
to realize are much more valuable
as raw materials. It will not be
many years until it will seem that
the age was almost prehistoric
which burned cellulose as fuel. We
now are past the stage of using
wood as fuel and we are soon going
