This new paint, which brings the
popular member of the paint family,
resin, outdoors, can be used over
cement block, concrete, brick, sand

tile, asbestos siding and stucco. 1t
comes in white and in eight colors:
Ivory, cream, buff, tannish brown,
light blue, gray, light green and

which is thinned with water so that
one gallon, costing about $275 or 50,
makes one and one-half gallons, to
be applied with a large brush or
sprayer.
There Is no reason why masonry
parts of frame house should be
neglected. Cheap paints for these
surfaces sometimes have been in
efficient in coverage. Good paints
often required good deal of pre-
paratory treatment of surfaces, such
as acid washing, sand blasting, siz-
ing and printing. But a resin ex-
terror paint covers well, dries under
normal conditions in about an hour
and can be applied to a wall which
is merely brushed or washed down
to a surface free from loose par
ticles and oil or grease.

Shades for Pieces

Give as much thought to select
ing harmonious colors for your gar

to choosing the right accessories
for your new summer ensemble. So
advises Lenore Kent In an article
in the current issue Of Better Homes
and Gardens.
"If the furniture will reside close
to the house on porch or terrace" :"
says Miss Kent, study the colors
you see on the outside OF the house

even the shades and curtains in the
windows.
Suppose you live in a house with
a gray roof, white body and trim
and lettuce-green shutters. You've

If your house Is Of unpainted

cream trim your choice is bit
more limited. But cream, green or
dark wood browns would all be
pleasing to the eye"

Speaking of the outdoor furniture
that is not so close to the house
that its color harmony is impor-

New Paint for Masonry.

Perhaps your house doesn't need
a new coat of paint this spring Yes,
Of course, you would like to put
fresh face on it, change the color
scheme perhaps, do something to
make it perk up and face the sum-
mer and winter ahead. But the paint
you put on last year, or the year
before. looks all right. Only some
thing is wrong; something has been
overlooked.
Could it be the chimney? Could
It be the foundation walls? Paint
for these two masonry parts of a
frame house is of different kind than
that used on wood. Maybe last time
the house was painted you forgot
about getting masonry paint and
making the chimney and foundation
walls as clean and bright as the rest
of the house. And maybe these
forgotten parts of the house spoil
the whole effect.
But luck Is with you. You can do
the two neglected parts this year,
when the walls themselves do not
need painting. There is a new resin
paint made expressly for outside use
over masonry materials. 1t is in

sively, in lead.
That is news to many people who
have believed that lead flashing is
a medium for expensive residences
only. But it demonstrates the fact
we have been heralding for a long
time, that manufacturers, through
the last 10 years and more, have
been experimenting to bring mate
rials within reach of modest budgets,
so that we can get old materials in
new and cheaper form today than
ever before in housing history.
With lead it was done through
the development of hard lead, which
is pure lead alloyed with between

TiIelike Board
Makes Modern
Wall Covering
Comes in CoIors
And Without Scoring
For Panel Use
BY DOROTHY DUCAS and
ELIZABETH GORDON.

Modern walls In kitchen and bath
room commonly are made with
shiny surfaced, colorful board, which
goes under the name of tile
board" That is because it is avail
able and popular in a scored-off
pattern which looks like glazed tile.
But this same material can be
used for the surfaces of walls in
kitchens and bathrooms without the
scoring. Indeed, many interesting
treatments are possible without un-
broken surface-horizontal panels,
plain walls above scored-off VAIN
scotings, contrasting colored large
panels running from ceiling to floor.
We bring the matter up because
we have been looking at some de-
signs for bathrooms and kitchens
suggested by one maker OF this kind
of board One, bathroom, is treated
with pale green and peach vertical
panels with chromium molding
strips. Very good looking. Another
uses black horizontal panels for the
lower part of wall behind re-
cessed tub, with white panels of the
same size on the upper part of the
walls.
Some of these horizontal panels
have scoring on observation-disclosures
of contrasting color, usually black
or white-but they run horizontally,
not in squares. Sometimes the scor-
ing lines are at regular distance all
the way up the wall; others are
made with a series of three lines
every two feet or so. You'd be sur
prised how unusual and handsome
the effect is.
The board has a lustrous water
proof finish which is not damaged
by steam, hot water, fruit juices,
fats or oils, household acids or alco-
holic beverages. 1t feels just like
tile. And it comes in Is standard
colors, which include lively rich
shades Of yellow, red, blue, purple,
green and buff. You can get the
usual scored-off tile effects, too, of
course.

sheet lead, so that the weight Of
material necessary for flashing Is
reduced by about one-half. And an
increased use of lead has brought
down its cost pound.
Lead flashing has certain advan-
tages: 1t is easily worked and
formed into the wide variety of
shapes and designs necessary for
proper flashing Of windows. doors,
roofs and chimneys. 1t resists cor
rosion and does not stain adjacent
masonry or paint whenever rain
water runs down from the lead to
the other surfaces.
Hard lead chimney caps are es-
pecially popular. Chimneys are vul-
nerable parts of any house and de-
terioration due to weather can set
in at the top of a chimney when
moisture penetrates its joints. Base
f1ashings and chimney caps of lead
are not expensive. They can be In
stalled by any sheet-metal worker
or building contractor. The caps
make metal top for the chimney,
like the ferrule of a walking stick,
except that there are openings to
let out the smoke.
Lead also can be used for una
brella roofs over entrance doors,
window and side wall flashings and
for Innings of hanging wood cutters.
