Bathrooms, also, should adjoin the kitchen; for in this situation it will not take long to get ready a bath in the country. Let the pressing room, also, be next to the kitchen; for in this situation it will be easy to deal with the fruit of the olive. Adjoining it should be the wine room with its windows lighted from the north.
Clo was enchanted to hear this, for it meant that the room must adjoin the one where Churn had pulled down the blind. She wondered if Churn were married to Kit. Perhaps she would find out by and by. "There's a husband and wife come into the double room next," Mrs. MacMahon went on, when she had shown Clo her proposed quarters.
Farmers whose fruit trees adjoin a public thoroughfare will also state that the average automobilist has quite a different code of morals for apples and pears than for money and gasoline.

Angela, before that summer was over, acquired three more chicks and a fowls' house of her own, and already saw visions of herself presiding over a farm which should adjoin Moor Cottage well stocked with fowls and ducks, geese and turkeys, cows and pigs, horses and dogs. "And I shall write out to daddy and mother to come home," she would say triumphantly.
