A quiet spot where one can escape from it all and just rest. This is | agin what the summer family camp means fo most people . But, to others it means much more than that. These people are k two birds with one stone. To , the summer cottage is not only a place to relax this year, but a permanent home to look for ward to when the time for retire- ment eomes. Now, no one .who has become accustomed to the amenities of city life wishes to retire to a life of discomfort. And so, with an ye to the future, they systematically modernize their summer home to make it the kind of place they will be happy in in later years, Modernization of a country pro- party can be spread over a num- r of seasons or completed in a single year, Probably the first step is the installation an automatic pump at the well to make running water available. At once the possibilities for med- ernization open U on every side. The kitchen can properly plan- ned around the central unit, a dual purpose combination sink and tub, with running water at the turn of a tap, instead of the arduous busi- ness of pumping by hand. Even such a luxury as constant hot wat- er becomes a practical possibility, and at not nearly the cost that would at one time have been im- ed. In this respect, then, re- tirement to the country no longer implies banishment to an old age of drudgery, but rather the pleas- ant prospect of carying on life as usual, but under much more peace- ful and relaxing surroundings. With running water, too, a prop- er bathroom and lavatory can be built into the house. Space for this should be no problem, Country houses are, as a rule, much more spacious even than the older type of city house. And, today, bath- room fixtures are designed to fit into only a few square feet of space. An area as small as 5' x §' is ample for a full three-piece bathroom. : Yes, the comfort of a bathroom is certainly one thing no one in- tends to be without in his old age. And today, the dream of a cottage in the country can easily include the most essential of' modern con- veniences. A bathroom of this kind might even be accommodated in one of those roomy old clothes closets that were such a feature of country- type houses a few years ago. And don't overlook the possibility of lo- cating it in a downstairs cupboard, | or a room pantry that is no longer The Building Editor, Oshawa Times-Gazette, Oshawa, Ontario.
