HOUSES wren NORTHWARD ASPECT.

A well-known-builder who lived here and built many houses in the neighbourhood some fifty years ago wished to build all his houses facing north. His argument, was that any one can keep a room warm in winter, but no one can keep it cool in hot weather if it faces south.-L(Rev.) J. G. D. WILLIS, Milton-under-Wychwood, Oxford.
