Gas or Electricity.
The houses most near completion have their stoves installed. Tenants will have either gas or electrie heating and lighting systems. Hot water systems, using both, are being fitted in different houses. Each house has at least one open fireplace. The popular chromium fittings are being placed on all cupboards^ most of them being of a novel design, with push buttons instead of handles. Their brightness, combined with the highly coloured enamels used in the kitchens, make the back portions of the house gay places to work in. Large low windows are numerous. Housewives should have no difficulty in exchanging impressions across backyards, for little separates most of tfie dwellings.
