Bungalow On View
THE first of the temporary bungalows being erected at Rushden was officially opened for public inspection on Saturday morning by the Chairman of the Rushden Urban District Council (Mr. H. Waring).
A few members of the public were present in extremely bad weather, and the ladies were greatly interested in the up-to-date equipment inside, particularly in the kitchen, where there is the cooker and washer, with space left for the refrigerator that is to come, and ample storage room.
Mr. Waring referred to the bungalow as the housewife's "paradise." Amongst other things he called attention to the heating of the bungalow ducts to each of the rooms from the one fire. With care on the part of the tenant, he said, the dwellings should be in as good condition as they were now in several years' time. Mr. Waring added that he hoped they would make their gardens as pleasant as possible.
Also present at the opening were the vice-chairman of the Council, Councillor J. George, with the chairman of the Housing Committee, Councillor J. F. Dilks, Councillor Mrs O. A. H. Muxlow and Councillors A. P. Weale, T. W. Cox, J. T. Richardson, P. Green and J. H. J. Paragreen.
