About Carillons

The world's greatest concentra-tion of carillons is still in the LowCountries of Europe (Belgium,The Netherlands, northern Franceand northwest Germany). The artof the carillon has spread worldwide, however, with instrumentson every continent except Antarc-tica. More than 180, of all levelsof quality, exist in North America;they are listed in the Tower Direc-tory. Elsewhere in the world, morethan 450 exist, and they can also befound through the Tower Direc-tory. All are identified there as"traditional carillons".

An instrument which is like acarillon in terms of the number ofbells, but which has only auto-matic action, is often loosely calleda carillon. These can also be foundthrough the Tower Directory,where they are identified as "non-traditional carillons".

An instrument which is like a

carillon but has less than 23 bellsis called a chime. Several differenttypes of playing mechanism areused in chimes, and the musicalcapabilities are distinctly less.However, the quality of those bellsneed not be less, and indeed therehave been many instances wheregood-quality chimes were eventu-ally enlarged to become carillons.Although chimes are found in asmany parts of the world as caril-lons are, there was a uniquelyAmerican development of them inthe 19th century. About 700 areknown in North America, andmore than 500 in the rest of theworld; they can also be foundthrough the Tower Directory.

Almost everyone experiences afew seconds of dizziness at somepoint in their lives. Do you remem-ber your childhood days when youwould spin round and round untilyou got dizzy and had to wait a fewseconds till the “world stoppedspinning”? It was fun back then,but when it occurs “out of theblue”, it’s something to be con-cerned about.

According to the National Insti-tutes of Health, about 90 millionAmericans, or more than 1/3 of thepopulation, report bouts of dizzi-ness at some point in their lives. Ofthose, 76 million suffer from inner-ear disorders, which can be causedby:

1. Whiplash (neck injuries)

2. Blows to the head

3. Viral infections

4. High doses of certain antibiotics

5. Stroke

6. Degeneration of the inner ear'sbalance function, also known asthe vestibular system (which oftendeteriorates with age).

Inner-ear problems can manifestthemselves in different ways.Some symptoms include dizziness,nausea and blurred vision.

It’s not uncommon for individu-als with dizziness to go from onedoctor to another in an attempt tofind a solution.

Leaving You Dizzy

The feeling of spinning / rockingand constant nausea can literallyturn your life upside down.

Frequent episodes of dizziness(especially with certain headmovements) are a sign of dysfunc-tion in your inner ear. This dizzi-ness can last a few seconds,minutes or even days.

Symptoms of inner ear disordersmay be mild (lasting only secondsor minutes) or severe (resulting intotal disability).

Common causes include:

• Inner ear disorder or ear infection

• Flu or the common cold

• Benign paroxysmal positionalvertigo (BPPV; this is the mostcommon cause, may be accom-panied by hearing loss and mus-cle weakness)

• Ear infection, head injury andwhiplash are common in youngerindividuals

According to the NIH, 85% ofequilibrium problems have to dowith the inner ear. Other causes in-clude a stroke, multiple sclerosis,seizures and brain tumor.

Supervised Exercise -YourTreatment For Dizziness

Exercise might not be the firstthing you think about when itcomes to treating dizziness or ver-tigo, but it plays a crucial role.

Call our office and we’ll help youget the right diagnosis by evaluat-

ing you or referring you to the ap-propriate doctor.

If the problems with the inner earare due to a virus or physical dam-age, physical therapy will be effec-tive.

Be warned – the first few days ofexercise might make the dizzinessworse before it starts to get better.In this case, physical therapy canessentially “recalibrate” the innerear system. Talk to one of ourhighly qualified physical therapiststo determine how we can help you.

A Word Of Caution

If any of the following applies toyou, CALL YOUR DOCTOR:

• You experience dizziness withoutwarning

• Some medicines cause you tofeel dizzy

• Your previous symptoms are dif-ferent now – like lasting longer ormore acute than before

• You experience hearing loss

• Head injury

• Fever over 101°F or 38°C

• Convulsions or ongoing vomiting

If Your World is Spinning….Contributed by John Vacovec:

Page 7: Norwood July 2011

It's back! It was hard to evenimagine the sumptuous flavors offresh produce that would grow be-neath the mounds of snow this pastwinter, but mother nature alwaysfinds a way to reverse its seasonsand the Norwood Farmer's Markethas now returned to provide thosesweet and crisp fruits and vegeta-bles to its awaiting customers.

Now in its 16th year, the market,located in the municipal parkinglot behind Babels, will be home toapproximately seven growersevery Tuesday through October25, from 1-6 p.m., rain or shine.Each afternoon, Norwood resi-dents have the opportunity to greetlocal farmers and reap the benefitsof their hard labor by purchasingfruits, vegetables, potted herbs,bread and fresh fish.

"They actually get to meet thefarmers," Farmer's Market coordi-nator and owner of Paradise HillFarm in Westport Shirley Robbinssaid. "The farmers that are thereare also the farmers that work thefarm. If people have questions onhow we grow, varieties, etc., thefarmers are actually there."

According to Town Planner SteveCostello, several hundred cus-tomers frequent the Farmer's Mar-ket each Tuesday, and judgingfrom the continuing stream of cus-tomers each year and the returningfarmers, the relationship is strongand faithful.

"I'm quite certain people are sadto have them leave but it is great tosee them return each spring,"Costello said. "We are glad to havesuch a loyal bunch of farmers andbuyers."

In the beginning stages, six orseven vendors will arrive in Nor-wood each week with healthycrops of early summer seasonalitems, such as herbs, strawberriesand lettuces and other flavorfulitems and later in the season, anabundance of corn, cucumbers,tomatoes, melons and peaches willalso be available.

While some may visit thefarmer's market for its fresh pro-duce, some potential customersmay be economically guarded andmay steer their cars instead to thelocal grocery store. Robbins regu-larly compares farmstand priceswith a local Norwood supermarketand answers the bigger question:the farmer's prices are competitiveand sometimes lower than the su-permarket.

"Compared to local supermar-kets, we are right in line with

them," Robbins said.

Local farmers, as small inde-pendent businesses, continuallystruggle to maintain an importantpresence in the local market and

patronage to neighboring farmersmarkets is an excellent and cost-ef-fective solution for both the con-sumer and the business.

"Buy local and support your localfarms," Robbins said. "Withoutfarms there would be no food. Ithink a lot of people don't realizethat. It's not bad to supplementyour fruit and vegetable diet, butbuy local for freshness and supportthe local farmer."

Years ago, the market was cen-trally located on the Town Com-mon and talk has been initiated inthe Selectmen's office about possi-bly moving the market to a morevisible area, however, this year it

will remain in the spacious parkinglot between Cottage and NahatanSts., which gives distinct parkingand transporting advantages for thecustomers.

"In a recent meeting, Selectmenmade a suggestion to move them[market] to a better location and ishopeful to find a spot that is highlyvisible and user friendly to themerchants," Costello said. "Itcould tie into downtown activitiesand downtown events."

Our Work Will Fit Your Budget!

A little “facelift” with amazing results!

Oldham Elementary Schoolfourth grade teacher Scott Maffeihas been employed in Norwoodfor only four years, but his educa-tional skills and talents has alreadymade a significant impact on hisstudents, theirparents and theresidents of Nor-wood. At theaward banquetheld last month,Maffei was trulysurprised to hearhis name calledin honor of notonly his talents asa teacher, butalso his willing-ness to take thatextra mile withhis students.

"Even when Iwas just nominated, I was thrilled,"Maffei said. "I was surprised andcompletely taken aback. I was withpeople that have been there for solong. It was an honor to be in-cluded with that group."

For his decoration, Maffei re-ceived two plaques, one to hang inthe school, and a $1,000 check topurchase supplies for the Oldham.After consultation with his peers,Maffei decided on a video cameraand technology for their learningcenter. Every teacher nominated

also received a $100 Sky Restau-rant gift card.

"I took suggestions from otherteachers that is fun and creativethat are not included in our

budget," Maffei said.

The Norwood Orient Lodge as-sumed the Teacher of the YearAwards from the Exchange Clubof Norwood four years ago. Thelocal philanthropic group supportsmany local causes and resident ac-complishments, including the TenOutstanding Norwood Youth(TONY) Awards, which they con-sidered a nice accompaniment tothe teacher's tribute.

"It is just a way to recognize the

teachers and what they do on acontinual basis," Orient LodgeChairman of the Teacher of theYear Committee Tim Lephew said."It is good to recognize the teach-ers as well as the students."

A retired Nor-wood teacher, acurrent Nor-wood teacherand a member ofthe NorwoodSchool Commit-tee comprise thejudging panel forthe 13 teachersnominated thisyear. The criteriafor the honor iscomprised of

three parts: inno-vative and creativein teaching meth-

ods, extra projects beyond theclassroom in the school and instill-ing a love of learning in their stu-dents The anonymous nominationswere submitted and also anony-mously evaluated by the commit-tee and the winning teacher isnotified at banquet night.

The deadline for the NorwoodTeacher of the Year is typicallyaround May 1 of each year and anyteacher from any Norwood school,both public and private is eligibleto be nominated.

On May 20, 2011 Dr. Jasun Mahaffey of Norwood completedthe Orthodontics and Dentofa-cial Orthopedics Program ofthe Boston University HenryM. Goldman School of Den-tal Medicine.

Dr. Mahaffey is a graduateof Norwood High Schoolclass of 2000 where he wasthe blocking fullback for fu-ture NFL player, AlfredFincher. Jasun scored 9touchdowns himself that yearand even though undersizedat 170lbs., he was also a start-ing defensive end. He was a4 year wrestler and captain ofthe wrestling team where headvanced to the state tourna-ment.

While a student at thePrescott Elementary School in1989 Jasun, along with his brotherDamien and his father, also ap-peared in the movie “Glory”, theacclaimed film about the all black54th Massachusetts Infantry Regi-ment that fought during the CivilWar. A beautiful bronze reliefcommemorative sculpture of the

54th sits across the street from theMassachusetts State House at thetop of the Boston Commons.

Dr. Mahaffey graduated CumLaude from Tufts University in2004 and Cum Laude from theBoston University Henry M. Gold-man School of Dental Medicine in2009 where he received hisDMD. There he was one of onlytwo dentists in his graduating class

accepted into an Orthodontic pro-gram.

Dr. Mahaffey credits his successto the support and encour-agement he has receivedover the years from his par-ents, Bruce and BeverlyMahaffey, his brothers,Maceo, Damien and Jamesand the teachers, coaches(especially Mike McDo-nough and Mike Mahoney)and staff throughout theNorwood Public SchoolSystem. He said the disci-pline that he learned thatwas necessary to enablehim to play sports, whilemaintaining his academiccourse load, was a majorfactor in sustaining himduring the past 11 years ofstudy.

Dr. Mahaffey is considering sev-eral opportunities to begin hispractice, including working withhis uncle, Dr. Robert Ray, Ortho-dontist, in Washington, DC and islooking forward to bringing betterhealth and dental care to any com-munity he serves.

Do you know the difference be-tween Medicare and Medicaid?For EVERY senior it is vital toknow the difference. Your futuremay depend on it.

According to the WorldAlzheimer Report 2010,Alzheimer's disease is taking a ter-rible toll worldwide. According toDr. Daisy Acosta of Alzheimer’sDisease International, “This is awake-up call that Alzheimer's dis-ease and other dementias are thesingle most significant health andsocial crisis of the 21st century.”

What’s even worse is that de-mentia is on the rise, and in the USalmost half the seniors over age 80have this tragic disease. Dementiaputs a great strain on a family’s fi-nances and the loved ones likelyserving as caregivers. For more in-formation about what you can doto make your life as a caregiverbetter today, read our freeAlzheimer's Resource Guide,available on our website, or requestit on the reverse side. For optionson how to pay for care, please callour office.

So what does this have to do with

Medicare & Medicaid? Medicareis a type of public health insurancefor those age 65 and older. Manyseniors don’t realize that Medicaredoes not pay for long-term care.The confusion is easy to under-stand because Medicare does payfor rehabilitation.

So, if a senior citizen is enrolledin the traditional Medicare planand is hospitalized for a stay of atleast three days and is then admit-ted into a skilled nursing facility,Medicare may pay - for a shortwhile. But once those Medicarebenefits hit 100 consecutive days,you've hit the maximum.

In some cases, Medicare may noteven cover the full 100 days. Thecriterion is that there must be someactual improvement to your condi-tion, otherwise Medicare will de-cide that it is a long-term careneed, and they'll cut you off. Sincediseases like Alzheimer's andParkinson's have no known curetoday, rehabilitation is not possible,so Medicare will not pay for nurs-ing home care if you haveAlzheimer's or Parkinson's.

Unlike Medicare, Medicaid willpay for Alzheimer's, Parkinson's,or dementia-related diseases, or adecline in functioning due to the

aging process. You must, however,exhaust all your resources (includ-ing your spouse's) before you willbe eligible, that is unless you takesteps to protect your home, spouseand life-savings so you can avoidnursing home poverty. We canhelp. To learn more, call our of-fice.

Medicaid is paid for by both fed-eral and state funds but is admin-istered on a state level. The federalgovernment covers between 50-80% of the program costs, and thestate pays the rest. Rules can varyfrom state to state (even county tocounty) rather dramatically. How-ever, on the positive side, the lawenables you to take steps to protectyour home, life-savings andspouse so they are not impover-ished if you go to a nursing home.

So, as you can see, Medicare ishealth insurance, and Medicaid ispublic long-term care coverage,but often there are stages in be-tween that require examination anddiscussion.

For thepast five years, Carey has volun-teered at numerous organizationsand has given her time in educa-tional and communal area, both lo-cally and for nationalorganizations. For her numerousselfless contributions, Carey wasawarded the 2011 NorwoodTONY Award.

Carey’s eighth grade project wasassisting the reading specialist atthe Prescott School, her almamater, for six hours, but she foundthe project so rewarding, she con-tinued to help out for the next threeyears. From then, Carey discov-ered many ways to share her skillsand assist others in her school andcommunity.

In Carey’s sophomore year, shevolunteered her time in various or-ganizations, such as Earth Day atthe Prescott School and commit-ting her entire summer to helpingthe Norwood Food Pantry. Shealso participated in the 20-mileWalk for Hunger and the Walk forCystic Fibrosis, and for the pastthree years, participated in the 24-hour Relay For Life walk.

Carey has stretches her efforts be-yond Norwood to surrounding

Even with Carey's tremendousamount of charitable time,she still managed to main-tain excellent grades andparticipated on variousschool clubs and activities.She was a member of theNational Honor Society, theSpanish National HonorSociety, National Art HonorSociety and played for theNorwood field hockey teamthe past three years.

somewhere along this line

there was disconnect

between what fit

and what felt.

there was a snap of

uncertainty, and a tear

to threads of hesitation,

as we fell in tune.

what passes between us now

is weighted with uncertainty

but the warmth of eyes

says more than all fumbling,

wordless words.

i hold what resurfaced

in liquid form,

the world that transpired

into marmalade orange,

the traces of the sun

that sparked our way.

we were off-balance

and now we teeter

with the breeze

so soften your spirit

and let me fit inside

and we will sink or float

somewhere along this line

of beautiful wonder.

PET CORNER

Q: So what is a TOM cat?

A: To some this is simple but toall. A Tom cat is a name given to amale un-neutered cat that roamsthe neighborhoods we live in.These cats may or may not beowned. Tom cats may be very nicecats to their owners and even toothers but their behaviors when al-lowed to prowl the streets are farfrom gentlemen-like. These catsare usually very mischievous.Since they are un-neutered theyroam to seek out un-spayed femalecats in heat to mate. They usuallyfight with other male cats over ter-ritory and mates. Due to the exis-tence of large quantities of thesecats in places where feral and straycats exist their behaviors leadmany people to dislike cats. Thespread of unwanted cat diseases,not contagious to humans, isgreater among Tom cats and theirpresence becomes disturbing. We,as intelligent human beings are re-sponsible for the existence of Tomcats and we are capable and intel-ligent enough to neuter or spay all

cats in our communities for thewell-being of our cat friends whichwill eliminate this unwanted cathabit and stigma. Spay or neuter allcats, keep them indoors as healthy,safe house pets and for those free-roaming, community cats, be re-sponsible and seek trap-neuter-return assistance. Ask us how youcan help accomplish that.

Q: So I found a mother cat and

kittens in my back yard what

can I do to help them?

A: There are many things youcan do. First, evaluate the situation.Is the mother friendly? Where isshe living and where are the kittensliving? Is it a safe place, away frompredators, warm or cool? Does shehave a food source, if so where isit? If not, can and will you provideone for her and the kittens? Onceyou have determined that she isstray and now that you know sheis not spayed it is time to take ac-tion to address this “communityissue”. Ignoring it will only makeit grow bigger. Feed her and the

babies in a safe place during daylight hours. Remove food in lateevening and overnight as not to en-courage other animals to come tothe food source. Supply food (wetand dry) and water. Try to feed weton a regular schedule as this helpswith the cat rescue procedure. Ob-serve if the babies eat or not, hencedetermining their approximate ageand whether or not they can sur-vive without their mother. In themeantime contact a “no-kill” shel-ter like the Bay State Animal Co-operative to assist you in the rescueprocess. Removing the cats is notalways possible depending on thenature of the cat(s), age, and theability of the shelter to take in thecats BUT there are many optionsyou can be a part of. That is howrescue works! You may need toprovide some resources to assistthe group with the rescue but re-member it is everyone’s problemand ignoring it will only allow it tobecome a larger problem over ashort time. In most cases, the momis trapped and spayed and either

adopted out of your home, a fosterhome or the yard, the kittens aretrapped, fostered in a caged envi-ronment when necessary andadopted to qualified, screened for-ever homes. Kittens will be alteredand vaccinated by the sheltergroup, who will ask for a monetarydonation from the adopter to payfor these expenses. Help us helpyou and the cats and it is a win/winsituation. Thanks for asking as thisis a common problem this time ofyear.

See some of our kittens for adop-tion: Email us if you are interestedin adoption. Some of these kittensare available for viewing at ouradoption center at PetsMart inBrockton. Make appointment tomeet these kittens today!

The future looks bright for theNorwood Baseball team as theywrapped their season this monthwith a tough loss to South Sec-tional Finalist, Xaverian, 7-6.Despite the loss the Mustangsshowed great fight and neverbacked down from the baseballpowerhouse Hawks.

They didn’t (quit), said Nor-wood skipper James Sweeney,”they kept fighting and clawingback and just came up a littleshort.”

The Mustangs finished theseason, (10-11) overall butqualified for post-season play bybeating the same Xaverian team aweek earlier, 5-4.

In the latest Xaverian game, theHawks jumped out to an early 3-0lead after four innings despite astrong pitching performance fromNorwood senior James Bussiere.

But in typical Mustang fashion,they battled back in the bottom halfof the inning to tie the game at 3-3.

“The game itself epitomized howthey played the entire season,” saidNorwood skipper James Sweeney,“we came back and played wellfrom behind and pulled out somegames.”

Coach Sweeney saw this year as asuccess, despite the youth move-ment that went on in the infield.Winning seven out of ten down thestretch to get that coveted playoff

berth would make any coach happyand the Mustangs were able to dothat this season.

“Just being young, we got used toplaying in tight games and we re-sponded by winning seven out ofthe next ten, to put us in the tourna-ment,” said Sweeney.

The Mustangs had some keycome from behind games, pullingback from four runs to defeat Mil-ton, as well as coming back in thebottom of the ninth to defeat Fram-ingham in a key win to secure apost-season berth.

“In those games down to Miltonand a few other games we re-sponded right away,” said Sweeney.

The Mustangs are cluttered withsophomores and juniors who hadlittle or no experience at the varsitylevel.

The Mustangs only graduate onesenior from this year’s infield. Giv-ing great hope to a team that gaveXaverian their toughest gamethrough the post-season before theyfell to Franklin, 6-5, in the sectionalfinal, for Division 1.

“We had guys who were learningon the fly,” said Sweeney, ”I thinkwhen the guys started getting com-fortable, and winning a few gamesthey matured a lot over the secondhalf, the second half was very posi-tive.”

Expect more of the same this off-season as a majority of the Nor-

wood nine will be playing le-gion ball this summer andgetting some key reps inorder to make a deep playoffrun despite playing in ahigher division than theyneed to. (Division 1)

BYTIM DAVIS

The Norwood 11’ girls will godown as one of the greatest athleticclasses in Norwood sports history.Despite falling one overtime game

short on reaching the “Garden”final in Division 2 state girl’shockey. The girl’s also fell justshort of winning a softball statetitle when they lost a hard fought4-2 game against most-likely state

champ King Phillip in Taunton onJune 10th.

“We came out here trying ourbest,” said Hockey and SoftballPlayer of the Year Ali Maloof,“they (King Phillip) are a verygood team, you have to give it upto them.”

You have to give it up to Maloofwho was nothing short of spectac-ular in both the girl’s hockey tour-nament and softball tournament,where she pitched extremely wellin all three tournament wins overSomerset, Silver Lake, and NewBedford.

Before the King Phillip game,softball head coach Carol Savinopraised Ali’s ability as one of thebest pitchers especially in compar-ison to KP’s Megan Rico who hasreceived notable press as well overthe course of their undefeated sea-son.

“All we hear is Megan Rico,Megan Rico, Megan Rico, I say AliMaloof is as good as Megan Rico,in my mind as coach,” said Savino.

At the start of the KP game, theMustangs started slow and had dif-ficulty keeping up with Rico’smovement on her pitches. Ricostruck out eight of the first nineMustang batters she faced.

“She (Rico) has a lot of move-ment on the ball and in our leaguethere is not a lot of pitchers withthat, so we weren’t really ready forthat,” said Maloof.

KP added a run in the first on atriple and a push bunt, and in thethird when KP’s Anna Kelly dou-bled in a run to make it 2-0.

KP’s pitching of both Rico andMeg Carnese rivaled Norwood’saces of Lauren Duggan and Mal-oof. This season KP allowed onlythree runs all year and zero in thetournament before the Norwoodgame.

The Mustangs managed to scoreoff the stingy Warriors when Mal-oof lead off with a walk and stole

both second and third. On her stealattempt at third base the KPcatcher threw the ball away, allow-ing Maloof to score the first runoff KP.

Sophomore Kayla Garczynskiled off the sixth with a double,down the left-field line, and aftera Maloof sacrifice, Garczynskiscored on a Sarah Eckhardt buntfor Norwood’s final run.

It was the only substantial hit allgame against Rico.

“They had a great game,” saidSavino, “ They haven’t seen aRico before, Megan is a greatpitcher.”

Besides graduating Maloof, wholeaves Norwood High as one ofthe best in school history, the soft-ball team also graduates all-starDuggan who will be playing soft-ball at the University of Connecti-cut next year.

Other Norwood seniors fromthis year’s (21-1) team sayinggood-bye are Eckhardt, KatelynTrask, and Casey Ducharme.

“I would love to be going on,”said Savino, “ but we will be backhere next year, there is no doubt inmy mind.”

Localtownpages Norwood Turns 1!

BYAMYBEAUMONTAs advanced insects, butterflies puton quite a show from their start as anegg, all the way to their emergenceas an amazing, beautiful flying jewel.The facts on butterflies are equallyamazing; there are over 24,000 but-terflies worldwide, which includesizes from 1/8 inch all the way up to12 inches. There is certainly an uglystage along the way though – that ofthe caterpillar (larva) which includesthe feeding and growth stage. Fromhere, the caterpillar sheds its skinfour or more times in an effort to en-close its rapidly expanding body.Next comes the chrysalis, which isthe transformation stage. During thistime the caterpillar tissues are brokendown and the adult butterfly struc-tures form. After a period of around8 – 12 days, butterflies and mothsemerge from the chrysalis and hit theroad. Also making the same transfor-mation are moths. Both are insects ofcourse, and there are several ways totell the difference between the two.Generally speaking, most butterflies

fly during the day and moths at night.An easier way to spot the differenceis the way the wings rest – butterfliesrest their wings upright, whereasmoths spread theirs out. Also differ-entiating the two is body structure –butterflies tend to have smooth, slen-der bodies whereas moths tend to beplump and fuzzy. Neither butterfliesor moths have much time though –an average monarch butterfly typi-cally lives 2 to 6 weeks, although thelast generation of the year can live upto 9 months.

For those individuals that want thefull butterfly experience, a trip to theButterfly Place in Westford, MA isin order. The facility boasts both na-tive and tropical species of butterfliesand moths, and features several koiponds. For the shutterbugs out there,the Butterfly Place offers ample op-portunity to get great shots of theseshort-lived beauties.

The American Bungalow, orCraftsman home, grew out of theArts and Crafts Movement of thelate 19th century. The movementrejected the Industrial Revolu-tion’s increasingly ornate machinemade products and the overly dec-orated, impractical architecture ofthe Victorian era.

The word “bungalow” originatesin India and refers to a simple,low-built structure with porches onthe outside. The American Bunga-low emphasized a visibly sturdystructure, clean lines, natural ma-terials, simplicity and efficiency.Use of space was maximized byclustering the kitchen, dining area,bedrooms and bathrooms arounda central living area.

The American Bungalow also re-flected a changing America —members of a growing middleclass who sought an affordablehome of their own where theycould raise a family. This meant afloor plan integrating the kitchenwith the common areas providingeasy sight lines of the dining andliving rooms so one could easilywatch the children while preparingmeals.

The American Bungalow wasimmensely popular. Kit homesthat suppliers could ship anywherein the country led to “bungalowmania” in the 1910s and 1920s.Sears was the most prominentsupplier of these kits and report-edly sold more than 100,000homes between 1908 and 1940.Sears bungalows are now highlyprized by bungalow enthusiasts.

The American Bungalow has adistinctive style: a low, gentlyslopping roof, usually one story(some Bungalows have attics anddormer windows), wide overhang-ing eaves, exposed rafters (raftertails), an incised porch (set beneaththe roof) and tapered or square pil-lars (corbels) supporting the roof.Throughout the interior, designersshowcased the wooden craftsman-ship with exposed beam ceilingsand built-in cabinetry, shelves andbenches.
