 Frankness disarms suspic- ion. People are afraid only of those things which they do not understand. If you have an honest product to sell, the more you can tell about it the better the product will sell. If you try to make the cuSto- mer take a substitute for an advertised product, he be- suspicious and you lose a customer.

Care of Shrubbery and Trees
Important in Spring Months

Planting. pruning and trimming
shrubbery takes a prominent place in
home Identification during the Spring
and Summer months. the Federal
Housing Administration points out.
In improving the general appear
ance of grounds about the house, dead
branches on trees and shrubs should
be neatly trimmed and either disposed
of or stacked in fertilizer bin, where
they may decay until usuable as fer
tilizer.
Not only should dead wood be re-
moved, but trees should be trimmed
in accordance with good landscaping
principles so that desirable branches
will develop. Elms, for example. used
for street trees and along driveways
should be trimmed so that they will
gradually develop a spreading top like
a giant umbrella. Spruce is most ef-
fective when developed as a towering
green spire. The dense crown of the
hard maple is striking as bushy ball
in which the yellow, brown and red
shades of Fall merge in a flame of
color.
In general, street trees should have
their trunks trimmed to uniform
height and sufficiently high so that
there will always be ample clearance
over both walks and streets. Trees 10

is sufficient space for the natural

tractive when the branches begin with
a wide spread at the ground line.

Mass Construction of Homes
To Mark Better Housing Day

cificaliy, Mr.. Mcdonald said. One COM
pany alone Is planning to start con-
struction Of several hundred model
homes in as many communities on
June Is In cooperation with local
builders. Other concerns are planning
to erect model homes of their own,
bearing the company's name. In many
key cities.
1t was emphasized that these homes
will not be erected merely for exhibi-
ton purposes, but will be practical
and hvable, built to be sold to in
dividuas after the exhibition period
Is over.
These new model homes are expect
ed to be financed under the mutual
mortgage insurance plan of the Fed
eral Housing Administration.
No money Is advanced for construc-
ton of these or any other houses by
the Federal Housing Administration,
1t was emphasized. Erection OF each
Of the thousands Of these new model
homes Is being planned and financed
locally, under the sponsorship of the
voluntary memberships of the local
Better Housing Committee, with the
administration insuring the mortgages.
There are various ways in which
the local committees are arranging for
construction of their National Better
Housing day homes, 1t was stated.
Some committees have incorporated
themselves so that they can qualify as
borrowers and will build their own
homes, to be sold later to individuals.

reinforce the trunk with concrete. It
is often advisable to bolt various
branches together near their dividing
point to prevent tree from splitting.
while in other cases steel cables are
extended between various branches to
prevent them from breaking OF during
severe wind storms.
After existing trees are properly
conditioned, the shrubbery trimmed
and dead stock removed, then the
home owner may do required trans
planting and obtain such additional
stock as may be needed from a
nursery. He will then be able to OBJ
tain beautiful landscaping effects as
the Towering plants burst into full
bloom and the foliage develops into
variety Of lacy patterns.
Flower beds and rock gardens should
have the soil around existing plants
cleared of litter and needed additional
rich soil and fertilizer added. Occa-
sionally acid soil needs neutralizing.

Then the gradually tapering effect of
the tree from the ground to its top
provides a rare exhibit of landscape
perfection.
Because of the length Of time re-
quired to grow trees to desirable shade
tree size, they should be valued by the
home owner and every precaution
should be taken to protect them. If
the foliage last year did not have

possible that the roots should be fer

Miss Skinner
In Wives

The art of Cornelia Otis Skinner
lies not alone in her power Of min.
icry but in her ability to sense
drama and enact it even in seem.
ingly minor interludeS of daily
life.
In her program last evening at
the National Theater in which she
presented the more important of
the loves of Charles the Second
(Which will be repeated at the
Saturday matinee), Miss Skinner
draws distinct character lines
about the six important women in
the life of England'S merry mon
arch.
Beginning with his mother and
ending with the little Portuguese
queen who remained faithful even
to the death of the dissolute king,
Miss Skinner takes us along the
pathway of another of the Stuarts,
creating in her vivid manner the
illusion of full stage.
Best liked of the characterize
lions is Nell GWynn, the little
orange girl who asked nothing of
the man she loved, who gave him
his only quiet moments; he must
have known his only real happi-
ness with the matchmaking &C.
tress.
Miss Skinner clothes her amours
Of the king in quaint and gallant
fashion, emphasizing in her sets
her power of Interpretation.
AS a prelude to the featured
Loves of Charles" the actress
gives series of sketches which
are most amusing. Her Nurses
Day Out" is a gem.
If you have not had the pleas.
ure of attendance at one of Miss
SINNERS performances by all
means make haste to take advan-
tage of the fact that on Friday
and Saturday evenings she repeats
the brilliant Mansion on the
Hudson" while at the matinee on
Saturday she repeats THE Loves
of Charles the Second" *. Y.
