Admiral Land's opinion is that of
a technician and expert on ob-

submarines, and, to be more ex-
He got
the Navy cross for his work in de-
signing and building subm nes in
the World war, in which he served
as commander of the construction
)s, and, in 1919, he turned in a
searching technical study of what
German submarines had done and
what they might do in the next war.
The spirited little admiral, a
cousin of Charles Lindbergh, has
most important business on
hand just now, with something
like $400,000,000 staked out for
building a merchant marine.
This business of new ships, and
how good a risk they may be on
sub-infested seas, is decidedly in
his department.
He is a native of Canon City, Colo.,
born in 1879. After his graduation
from Annapolis, he did postgraduate
work in naval architecture. Football
has engrossed him almost as much
as the navy. He was the garrison
finish star of that famous ‘‘crap
game’ match between the Army
and Navy in 1900, a gridiron hero,
and thereafter a successful cor
ator in the long-drawn-out army
and navy athletics row.

His suavity and persuasive-
ness are always effective, as

them into good humor. He sue-

However, soldiering is one of

lace becomes a pe ion

Desired Extra Bathroom
Need Take Little Space
Few houses are being built to-
day without two bathrooms, or at
least a bathroom and extra lava-
tory. In the modernization of an
old house, consideration should be
given to this feature.
Plumbing authorities have found
that the essential fixtures of a bath-
room can be installed in a floor
space which measures five feet one
way and six feet the other. Space
at the unused end of the hallway
often may be converted into an ex-
tra bathroom, and in some cases
verted into a guest suite by partie
tioning it and including a bathroom.
