BUILDING IN VICTORIA HAS DOUBLED THIS YEAR VICTORlA.-'-That Victoria is keeping pace with the building activity shown in other coast cities is indicated by the returns of the city building inspector's department which, up to date give an increase of more, than double on the aggregate value of the construction authorized so far this year as compared with the same period of 1919. The month of July also showed a big increase over the same month last year, there being 24 permits issued during the past month, which authorized construction of a.total value, of $134,720/ which shows better than a live-fold increase over the same month last year when there were 22 permits issued which totalled only $26,915. Buildings authorized so far this year are aproaching closely the half million mark, tlie total up to the end of July being $471,621, which greatly surpasses the aggregate of permits issued up to the end of July, 1919, which were $234,091.

Mr. Edwin B. Woodell, Jr., a well known eastern architect, :offers the following suggestions in House.Beautiful: In these days when the cost of building is so high, every square inch of plan must be used,' and if the average house-keeper is to have a home at all he must build it as small as can be. The cost.of a house (is'In\"its size much more than its detail, excepting, of .course, any elaborate detail* which is prohibited in the so-called moderate priced house of today.\" - - The hall is a place where everyone likes to. have.,spacious.. They like to look from the front door through..the front garden and out.onto the terrace. If space is to be saved,\" however, the hall .can .be. cut, down very, appreciably, and quite attrartiye halls ahd stairs hare.-been..designed in the minimum of space by using an enclosed'stair; t\"aat:iis>T one -which7 goes _ up between walls. \\The'-haH~,can^be;'as small as ^ve feet square and still be very nice. Living. rooms really , must be comparatively-spacious.5 Twelve feet by sixteen .should, be'considered the mini,- I mum. /A considerable saving' of space \"can be effected 'bv combining living-room, and dining-room into\"one joom,, and .where one does one's own .work, ^ Jth,e inconvenience should not be 4 great. A, dining, room must never be less than \" eleven-. feet by twelve. This,is'the-\"minimum size In which a forty-six inch or\" forty-eight inch round table can ' be placed*\" and still- allow, passage behind .the chairs..,.This also provides, room for. an average serving table. -'. » \" The size of a kitchen is subject to personal likes so that it is dangerous. to say what is adequate. A stove, combination, gas and coal or electric, two tubs;and a sink;can be had in a kitchen nine, feet by ten feet, but .there is no. remaining room: for a, .central table. In connection with a kitchen as Vmall' as .nine by ten, there must be a kitchen pantry and a cold > closet or else a separate refrigerator. For a bedroom, the size depends a good deal on its purpose, whether for single, double, or twin beds. A bed, table, dresser and single bed can be had in a room nine by ten; twin beds in a room* twelve by twelve, and, a double, bed in a room ten by twelve. Bedrooms should not be made smaller tban the dimensions given. Five by eight feet is the smallest room in which bathroom fixtures can be conveniently arranged. A closet not less than two'feet by three feet must be provided for every single room, and-two of this size for double rooms. In some of the recent, housing schemes, bedrooms, are shown six by. nine,'living rooms eight by ten, but this seems to be carrying economy, much.too far. While it is never recommended to have «mall rooms, if larger and more convenient, ones can be afforded, yet the dimensions given here can be used and the rooms will be very livable. {Continued\"fresi 'pa** IV flcient fu^s^le^j Vill*;Vringr.t1fie total results .of, the Soldier Housing Act in this citato about seventy new(homes.
