GAETANO CARUSI reposes in Con-
gressional Cemetery, far from his
cares and troubles and over his grave
is white marble shaft, on which is
inscribed:
Sacred to the Memory Of
Gaetano Carusi
Died June II, l845,
In his s5th Year.
And Of His Wife,
Philippa Carusi,
In Her 18th Year
And Of Their Youngest Son,
Lewis Carusi,
Died October l9, 1872,
In His 18th Year.
There are at least two other leaders
OF the band buried in this cemetery, If
We include Carusi as among the lead
ers, and this probably should be done.
The others are Francis Maria Scala
and John Philip Sousa. Sousa's grave
is handsomely and appropriately
marked, and as a native son his burial
place should have an added attraction
for the mSic-loving WaShingtonians.
Indeed. his reputation was world
wide, and only few years ago, when
sightseeing in Warwick Castle, near
London, England, the writer became
much interested when he was informed
that in 1898. when the Duchess of
Warwick gave grand ball there. to
which King Edward VII was invited,
Sousas band played the music for the
occasion.
And this, the writer unused. was our
own Washington Sousa, who once
managed the Muffers. one Of the Navy
Yard sections base ball teams; who
led the orchestra in the old Theater
Comique; who became leader Of the
United States Marine Band, and who
for many years successfully conducted
his own magnificent band.
OF course, as much as We admire
Mr.. Sousa. yet We must not fail to
mention other leaders OF this great
organization from the beginning to
the present time. They include

been under way for some time. The
material was carefully tabulated,
systematized and finally published
under the title. style Manual of the

HOSTESS HOUSE,
is ATTRACTING.
MANY VISITORS
Furnishings of Home
Now Grace Twin
Next Door

Well, 1t was just what might
have been expected.
The original Frances Troy
NorthcroSs "hostess house." 1903
Twelfth st. N. W., in Shepherd
Park, has been sold.
1t just couldn't have been other
wise. With the hundreds of Wis
itors who inspected the lovely
home, marveling over the prop
erty and agreeing that it met the
promises of their dream houses, it
couldn't have been otherwise.
But-and perhaps I should have
emphasized this even sooner -
don't despair.
SAME CHARM
The house next door, also built
by Paul T. Stone, Inc, is as nearly
a twin" as it could be made.
The lovely furnishings installed
by the Hecht Company in the
original hostess house" have been
placed in the dwelling next door,
1929 Twelfth st. N. W., and you
are cordially invited to inspect this
property.
It, too, embodieS the charm,
beauty and ruggedness of the
hostess house" and has been
constructed to meet the most rigid
building specifications.
To you prospective home-makers
who have not yet seen these
houses it will be difficult to tell
you just why the hostess house"
is so different but let me try to
tell you about some Of the fea-
lures.
DESIGNED FOR LIVING
In the first place it brings to
the middle size income group a
structure designed to be lived in,
which has the rigidity of a sky.
Scraper and which offers those
health-giVing comforts and those
convenienceS which make the
home attractive.
1t is air-conditioned and is
equipped with automatic oil burn
ing heating plant. 1t is insulated
with metallation, which reflects
both heat and cold. The walls are
reinforced with steel.
The architectural motif is the
popular traditional colonial. 1t is
center hall in plan and the spa
ciouSneSs Of the rooms will sur.
prise you.
To visit the hostess house"
drive out Sixteenth Street to
Alaska Avenue N. W., turn right
to Holly Street and thence right
again and proceed to the home.
The Washington times., 1937-12-11

To those canny and discrimi-
mating home seekers who insist on
seeing what their surroundings
are to be like before they decide
on a house-and yet are de-
termined to settle only in new
development - Westboro exercises
a distinct appeal.
Here Is completed homes, each
distinctively Colonial, are har-
moniously blended into one care
fully worked out architectural
scheme.
Westboro is Colonial in fact. De-
veloped by the William H. Saund-
ers, Co., Inc, it is presented by
Walker and Prescott, Inc, realtors.

you prefer the old-fashioned candle
with its CHEEKY sparkle you can
have it in a new series of string
electric lights in the form of can
dies in different colors topped by
small lights. Secured to the tree
this arrangement is surprisingly
like the effect given by real can
dies.
It is a good time now to look
at the windows, walls and furnish
ings of the rooms with a critical
eye and visualize just how it or
they should be adorned for the
holidays.
And, that done, it would be pru-
dent to visit the shops and get the
desired material before others de.
plete the stocks and before the
holiday is actually here.
The Washington times., 1937-12-11

It is a good time though Tor
them to give thought to the Yule-
tide decorations which they will
use in and about the home to
add to the holiday atmosphere.
These may be as simple or as
elaborate as the taste or the purse
dictates.
TRADITIONAL SYMBOLS,
During this festive season
homes throughout the land will
again glow and be adorned with
the traditional symbols of the
season - the candle, the wreath
and the evergreen tree.
To many, a single candle burn
ing in a window on Christmas
Eve is the perfect expression. out
wardly, of the spirit of this holi-
day.
The trend in recent years how
ever has been for a much more
elaborate manifestation of greet

CONTRASTS
Somewhere in between these ex-
tremeS Mr.. and Mrs. Home Maker
will probably find the decorative
scheme which will best express
their spirit of good will and rejoic-
ing this holiday season.
While a large percentage will
prefer a fairly glowing and lumin-
GUS holiday home there will be
many others who will derive more
pleasure from making their own
Christmas decorations by use of

TO REMOVE PAINT

To avoid the permanent spotting
Of locks, door handles and other
hardware when painting wood
work, cover their surfaces with a

may then be easily removed with
a dry cloth. Be careful, however,
to avoid getting any vaseline on

drying.
