Home Page view issue

Home view should show by default a summary of a few recent posts. I would assume it would show like 3 to 4 lines of each article.

It’s not doing so and i’m not sure why ? Any ideas ?

Picture of settings I thought would do the job

After some searching I found an example of something similar of what i’m trying to achieve here…

THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!!!
