English Design

Local Architect
Waverly Taylor Depicts
Evolution of Domestic
Style in Lecture.

The evolution of the English domes-
tic style of architecture from historic
modes employed in England to the mod
ern American dwelling of English mo-
tits was described recently by Waverly
Taylor, architect, before the sales man
ayers division of the Washington Real
Estate Board. Discussing English styles
in America, he said:
1.-The English style can be well adapt
ed to American use, although several
important notifications are necessary
To the EngliShman, his garden is all
important and he plants his house so
that the principal rooms face the gar
den. Until recently, this plan was re-
versed in America.
Until the war, domestic servants had
been comparatively inexpensive in Eng
land and English houses are not de-
signed like those in America to reduce
the distances between rooms and pro-
vide convenient arrangement based
on scientific principles of housekeeping
English houses very rarely have a base
ment extending under the entire house,
and this permits them to be built close
to the ground, allowing the steep
pitched roof to sweep very far down.
In America, where cellars are universal,
the buildings must be set higher from
the ground, which somewhat destroys
the English effect.
There is a dominant homelike at
mosphere pervading the English coun-

try residence, which may be traced to
a large extent to the avoidance of any
formality of design. The long, sloping
lines Of the English stone, tile or
matched roof, which is often broken
by gables and frequently slopes more
on one side than another, gives to the
residences of that country a certain
picturesqueness and feeling of nominees
found in no other place in the world.
People like a name. They like to
be able to say that a certain house is
Tudor or Jacobean, Elizabethan or
Georgian But these are for the most
part merely names, since very few mod
ern houses are copied exactly from the
designs, of some historical period. Mod
ern English domestic architecture has
been evolved fundamentally from the
Elizabethan and Tudor periods, al
though there is little evidence of strict
adherence to either.
1.-THE Elizabethan period is noted
chiefly for its picturesque old manor
houses. Great latitude was allowed in
the construction of these houses. Their
lines are Gothic, with high gables and
steep-pitched roofs, expressive of the
atmosphere of medieval times. Charac-
teristic of this period is the delightful

void, while in Surrey, Sussex and Kent
the hip roof is most common. The
chimneys, which play such an inpor-
tant part in the composition, are gen.
orally large and display an endless va
riety of design, whether of brick or
stone. They are usually topped with
ornamental extensions of the chimney
hue. The windows are invariably in a
series of unitS-grouped. Loaded glass
windows were used a great deal, and
steel sash IN the later periods.
Following the Elizabethan period
came the Jacobean, another period of
delightful tnformality, and later the
more formal and dignified Georgian pc
Rod, the designs of which have formed
the foundation of our own 'colonials.'

half-timbered house. During the reign
Of Elizabeth, timber was largely en-
ployed in the framework of every house,
but instead of using clapboards or shin
giles to cover the. exterior surface, the
Elizabethan builders filled in the open
spaces between the skeleton framework
with brick walls and plaster.
1.-THE timbers of the framework were
then allowed to appear in the design.
Many of these half-timbered houses
were built so well that they have en-
dured for centuries American archi-
tects have adapted the half-timbered
house with charming results. although
it is no longer built as in the days of
Elizabeth.
1.-THE Cotswold Hills, in central south
ern England, contains perhaps the most
interesting type of smaller domestic ar
chitecture. Surrey. Sussex and Kent
sections also are rich in smaller do
mestic architecture. The style is diff
ferent
Certain details are characteristic
throughout the various types. There is
always q large. unbroken roof, usually
covered with heavy slate, red shingle
tiles or matched with reeds and rushes.
The gable is used profusely in Cots

VACANCY SURVEY
!: f: DRAWS INTEREST

3 by Apartment Canvass
8 Here in Capital.

A new idea developed for the first
time in a comprehensive degree in
Washington, the making of an apart
iaent vacancy survey as guide to the
needed amount of new building, is set
forth as an example for other cities in
an article in the National Real Estate
Journal
: The article describes the survey made
here by the Operative Builders Asso-
citation, which later was tabulated and
analized by the Division of Building
and Housing, Department of Commerce
: Commenting on the plan editorially,
the Journal states:
Before a manufacturer starts to pro-
duce an article he makes a very care
full study of the existing supply and de-
Inand. Why should not realtors, manu-
facturers of homes and apartments do
the same?
= 1.-The answer is, they are beginning to.
Several of the leading boards have COM
pleted careful vacancy surveys; others
are under way. The survey described
here was made by Washington builders,

is, from the standpoint of completeness,

TIMBER IN FARM ECONOMY

Farm woodlands occupy substan-
tial place in farm economy in pro
gram for the development of agricul-
ture in Franklin county, Maine, rec
commended by a special committee OF
farmers and other business men ap-
pointed by the county farm bureau.
The Forest Service, U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture, notes that the
committee found that 10 per cent OF
the total receipts of the average
Franklin county farm came from
wood and lumber. In two types OF
farming operation programs recon-
mended by the committee for farms
calculated to do an annual business
of $4,000, the sale of wood from the
farms and timberlands accounts for
at least 5000 year.
The committee recommends the
following adjustments in the man
agement of farm woodlands: ~
make selective cuttings, (2) thin all
farm woodlands to favor the growth
of the more valuable trees, 90 refor-
est waste areas.

Lincoln School Notes

Another school term is drawing to
a close, the curtains of school duties
are parted and vacation scenes en-
ter on the screen. 1t is fitting at the
close of this school term to bring
again to light some of the outstand-
ing achievements: 100 per cent

cent banking, active d. A. clubs, ac-
tive p. II. A., installation of electric
lights, 100 per cent field meet, adver-
tisements, library books, pictures,

place. In group two, comprising the

ing the professional progress OF the
school system. For this cooperation
