small and compact, this six room modern cottage has quite a pretentious air so that, judging from the exterior view of It one would think it in reality a much larger house than it is.This clever bit of deception on the part of the designer has its advantages inasmuch as a house of this type would grace any community no matter how exclusive, in addition to which the architect has proven that the small house need not necessarily be a squeezed-up looking affair.On the first floer of this attractive home are a large living room, a cheerful, sunny dining room, a modernly equipped kitchen and a service porch.The front plana is deep and spacious and ideal for an outdoor sitting room In summertime while glassed In In winter it would make a nice sun parlor.The living room, which runs the entire width of the house, is a particularly bright, cheery spat with its open fireplace of brick or rough ftelc stone, as the owner may prefer and its many windows.The staircase ascends from this room, a group of windows on the landinf making It light and providing a happy spot for plants.Upstairs are three bed roems, a center hallway, bath room and yri.a «\u2014 - ^mrearn D\u2019yirf* fozm »'« /)¦

in London, Ont., two important projects have been launched this week.Mahaffy Brothers, Limited, real estate dealers, have purchased j the Morley estate at the corner of | Trafalgar St.and Highbury Avenue land will subdivide it into 176 lots, j Tlie firm plans to commence build-! ing operations in the spring and is i preparing plans for twenty dwellings to sell at from $1,600 to $2,000 ! each.Another deal of a similar nature is that of the London Wrecking i Company which plans the erection of forty small homes on East side property.For many months it has been practically impossible to obtain a cottage in the city to rent and very ; few- small houses have been offered for sale.Owing to the large investments that have been made by local capital in bonds very little money has been available for speculative building.The experiment of the two companies mentioned is being war-ched with considerable interest and may lead to other building.Local architects state that not in many months have there been so many inquires as recently.With lower prices for materials and reasonable labor costs they predict a record building season next year.CHARGED wrra FORGING DEATH CERTIFICATE

Oxbow', Sask., was committed for trial at the next Criminal sitting of the court, of Kings Bench by Magistrate Maceachren on Saturday.Tbe evidence concerning the cablegram was to the effect that the

signed the \"Rev.E.Pickering,\u201d a person who, it was claimed by the Crown, does not exist.1884\t$16,639,800 The report on general building conditions is as follows: The recession in price of both building material and labor which ccSnmencea several months ago, still continues.Demands for new construction are still piling up.Prom-nent builders, supply dealers, students of the building situation, and statistical compilations, imply that a resumption of active building operations should not be long delayed.The chief obstacle in the path of brisk building is the absence of ready money but this difficulty will bo surmounted in the general de cline in cost of completed buildings.Loan companies are closely studying the descent in prices and calculating where the new level will be found, in order to establish a sound lending basis, which has been impossible during the years immediately following the war.Outstanding declines in material have been recorded in lumber, brick, and steel, while enamelled plumbing fixtures have consistently refused to join the backward swung and remain practically at peak prices.Labor has reluctantly joined in the downward trend, but only to a slight degree.Further declines will materialize, despite the strenuous efforts of the union officials to maintain present schedules.It is evident that labor is responding to the demand that it shall render a fair day\u2019s work for the w'age it receives, and the old practice of petty strikes, sloiririg up the gang, deliberate limitation of production and many other non-productive tactics are vanishing.KIMBERLEY from 64c.per hour to an average of 50c.The 1913 average for the country may be taken as 22c.per hour.It is, therefore, probable that labor cost will continue to decline in 1922, and this will work to draw certain materials below the present , levels.If prices thus continue their decline there will remain a measurable ! uncertainty in the construction industry.It must be borne in mind, however, that any future decline in | prices will not be from a peak, but! from price levels that are already j satisfactory in a number of instances.Therefore, there shoud not be anything like the uncertainty! that has prevailed since the summer of 1920 to date.Furthermore, the | volume of construction of an urgent j nature is steadily swelling and a j certain proportion of this must be | released, irrespective of market con- | ditions.It seems safe to predict: that 1922 will be a considerably better construction year than the pres- ; ent, and that the years following; will show the construction industry | really catching up.Toronto Minister Appeals for Feminine Mob Prevented Mine Unity Among Cnnndian, at Workers flom Rehlrai This Particular Juncture in Uuri\t*

the difficult task which confronts him,\u201d declared Rev.R.N.Morden, pastor of St.James Square Presbyterian Church in a political prelude to his sermon last evening.Rev.Mr.Morden vigorously appealed for unity among Canadians at this particular juncture in our history, which he considers to be a serious one.It was no bed of roses, he said, to which Hon.Mr.King had been called at Ottawa.His solid
