SIMPLICITY IN PLANNING
Sir,- Perhaps your correspondent "E. J.C." was untimely with his critcism of Mr. Sowerby’s planning, as the two so-called "major errors" were righted in each of the three succeeding of the four designs submitted. In my opinion, the wall in the laundry considered "extravagant" has three useful purposes, viz., (1) separate laundry; (2) serves as back entrance porch; and (3) contributes to dining recess in kitchen. Regarding the sink, perhaps it could be placed, with permission of the designer, under the window as suggested by "E.J.C.," as the sink bench appears to be "returned." The purpose of this letter is not so much to answer criticism as to commend the articles of Mr. Sowerby. I feel sure, Sir, that your reading public will be very appreciative of the articles, which have explained and described so well.
