better qualified to suggest to the

Question: How to change a fiat
chicken yard into beautiful terraced
rock garden with nothing more to
start with than a sheet of wrapping
paper, a pencil, a few ideas and the
yard?
The answer is supplied by DR..
George C. Havenner, president of the
Anacostia Citizens Association, who
insists rock gardening is only his No.
2 hobby. However. investigation re-
vealed that hobby No. 2. located at
the Havenner residence, 1745 Mime
sofa avenue southeast, looks like the
finished work of professional rock
gardener and it is rapidly becoming
one of Washington's show gardens.
DR.. Havenner's hobby No from
point Of SERVICES civic affairs. For
more than a quarter of a century he
has devoted a great deal OF his time
to community and city matters. He
has been instrumental in securing
many major Improvements for the
Capital City and its voteless resi-
dents. He served for some time as
Washington'S elected mayor "-presi-
dent of the Federation of Citizens
Associations.
About two years ago, however. DR..
Havenner decided to relinquish some
of his civic activities, spend more time
at home and Just take it easy. After
two or three weeks "loaf1ng." with
no problems to cope with, he found
the evenings long and tiresome. So he
decided he must find a new diversion
to occupy his leisure hours.
Result: The confirmed lobbyist
took one last look at his fiat half
acre of chicken yard and delved into
hobby No. g. Possessing little or no
knowledge of landscaping, he sought
the advice of friends familiar with
rock garden layouts. He was deluged.
Words of advice came so thick and
fast and varied that he decided to
discard them all and go on his own,
regardless of consequences.

District and a member of the Board
of Trades Taxation Committee.
The District Commissioners have

which he is a member, as well as the

To this impressive list his member
ship also extends to include the

Saul Speaks on Trees.
Last weeks speaker was John A.
Saul, for many years delegate to the
federation from the Brightwood Cit
liens Association. The title Of Sauls
address was THE Trees Of the City
of Washington"
Saul's father, who was in the tree
nursery business, was a member OF
the Park Commission from its mcep-
ton in 1872 to the time of his death.
Saul has. from early childhood, main
tanned a keen interest and understand
ing of botany.
Few persons consider what the
trees mean to the city Of Washing
ton" he asserted. They impart beauty
as well as comfort and health, and it
is surprising how much has been done
with small appropriations" In 1884
the appropriation for the Parks Com
mission was $4,000; in 1885, it was
$50, 900, and in 1886 an appropriation
of $10O, 900 has been made, he said.
When it is realized the territory COW

old sections to be renewed, you will at

trees planted throughout the city and

and in public parks.

neighborhood owned by the United
States. For the ultimate solution
of their problem they ask that a
site be procured for the erection at
a later day of an extensible modern
building.
The case presented was SO clean
cut and the need for school ia
cilities so apparent that the school
authorities responded Immediately
with plans for supplying one port
able at once, with a second to fol-
low shortly. The school authorities
also are asking Uncle Sam TO lend
the site upon which to locate these
portables.
To all citizens interested in the
schools. portable buildings are an
abomination. but they are like what
the small boy said about a lie, "a
present help in the time of trouble. .
Portables are considered by these
people to be far better than to re-
quire small children to go a mile
or more over suburban roads to the
nearest school.
This baby association has made a
fine showing in taking its first steps
and the old timers in the civic work
are all congratulating it on the sue
cess. But they are also cautioning
this husky youngster to be just as
careful and just as thorough in
preparing for the other steps it
will take in its civic career.

Out came the sheet Of wrapping
paper, the pencil, the ideas-and
hobby No. 2 was blueprinted.
Once started, things went full blast.
From a firm in Palatka, Fla, the
lobbyist secured a fence Of the type
he wanted. built of red cypress. This
was shipped to him by boat and train.
Rock used in building terrace walls,
pool ornamentation, etc, all came
from the hills Of Virginia, the greater
part from Seven Hills, the estate Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Jay Jerome Williams.
There he got an ample supply Of flint
rock. in which can be seen traces
of mica and two or three kinds Of
metals. Stepping stones of rough
granite of all sizes and shapes, Just
as blasted out of the ground, help
to give an unusual appearance 10 the
whole setting.
To one side of the rockery is large
pool, 10 by l6 feet, in which water
lilies. lotus and several varieties of
goldfish flourish. A fountain in the
center of the pool is built along the
line Of bu5bllng spring with the
water dripping over rocky mound.
At one end Of the pool is bird
bath, so placed as to form part of
the rock work.
To Mrs. Havenner is due much of
the credit for the success of her hus-
bands latest hobby. She is great
lover of flowers and many OF the
plants in the garden, including about
500 lockwood plants bordering the
whole garden and terraces, were grown
by her from cuttings. She also ar
ranges and plants the Spring and
Summer flowers.
This Summer she has had a bed
of scarlet sage bordered with dusty
miller, bed of petunias of all shades
and a bed Of varigated coleuS. Her
Spring flowers are tulips, hyacinths.
jonquils and iris, all so arranged so
as to afford. with several Towering
shrubs, an abundance of color.
