3. The parents welcome their
children's friends and see that
they have a good time when they
come to the house. While keeping
a weather eye on how things are
going. they don't interfere unnec-
essarily, or criticize their chill

4. There Is play space and
work and play material for all
the children in the family. places
for storing personal possessions,
and, despite obstacles, practical
arrangements for some privacy
for both children and adults.
3. The adults are usually good
humored. They can see jokes and
laugh with a child. not at him.
This is an important distinction
and practically rules out adult
teasing OF children.
s. II parents lose their tenn

can snap out of 1t quickly. They
let bygones be bygones and are
not irritable. self-absorbed or

7. The parents know children

Of what IL is reasonable to expect
Of children at various ages. They
will not, for example. demand the
same politeness from a four-year-
old as from a ten-year-old, the
same sense Of responsibility from
six as from a sixteen-year old.
8. The parents realize that no
two children are alike. There

as individuals. each with his own
strengths and weaknesses: they
avoid comparisons which point TO
one as the superior OF another.

9. Parents are not surprised or
over-anxious when their children

Every room either adjoins bath,

Members are encouraged to have

Lisner Home Inspires
Younger Spirit by
Service 10 Others
Each Resident Gives
New Talents for
Feeling Of Partnership
By JESSIE FAINT EVANS.

The new Lisner Home at 5425
Western avenue N. W., which is in
terpreting the word home" to
women who might otherwise be
faced with economic necessities
they could not meet, in addition to
the loneliness of mounting years, is
making social service history in this
city as a cooperative organization.
From its entrance to its popular
lower floor hobby shop, there is
nothing which suggests conven-
tional, institutionalized procedure.
The result is at once apparent in
the brisk, humming activity of those
who are making it their home. This
is in marked contrast to the list
lessness so often found in institu-
tions where lack of occupation and
rigid mold of fixed rules and re-
strictions sets its stamp on initiative
and individual responsibility.
The gift of the late Mrs. Abraham
Iisner and her husband, its beauti-
fully planned buildings set amid
fine old trees, green lawns and a
charming flower garden was especi-
ally designed to meet the require
ments of its guests. There is ele-
vator service to all floors.
Draws Children.
Here since February %, a non
sectarian group of still active but
aging women has been proving
quietly and unobtrusively it is pos
sible to grow younger in spirit, by
continuing to be of service to others.
With the instinct children have
for seeking out congenial environ
ments for their own activities, the
youngsters in the neighborhood
have way of dropping in with
their pets and their toys to visit the
women who live there.
Recently, a lonely Texas cowboy,
en- route for his home range in
a dusty jalopy stopped by to inquire
whether he could get board and
lodging for the night, because this

The Lisner Home ladies do en-

To Hear Hoover on

~ the Associated Press.
Senator Taft, Republican, of Ohio
suggested today that the Senate call
on former President Hoover for ad-
vice when it tackles the contro-
versial price control measure already
passed by the House.
Senator Taft, who Is sponsoring
substitute price legislation, said Mr..
Hoover acquired vast practical ex-
perience IN price-fixing while serv-
ing as Federal food administrator
during the World War.
IT the Senate wants to learn from
some one who really knows how to
f1x prices We should invite Mr..
Hoover here, he said. He did more
real price-fixing during the last war
than any one in our history"
Glass to Speed Action.
The Ohioan made his suggestion
As Senator Glass, Democrat, of Vir-
ginia, acting chairman of the Senate
Banking Committee. announced he
would seek to speed hearings on the
disputed House bill. These begin
Tuesday with Leon Henderson, act
ing price administrator, as first
witness.
ITS not going to be any eight
weeks before We get out a bill"
Senator Glass told reporters, ap-
parently referring to the long House
committee hearings on the measure
Senator Taft. however. thought
that the complicated issue might
necessitate hearings to continue for
several weeks"
Senate Majority Leader Barkley,
a member Of the Banking Commit
tee, was expected to lead admins
tration forces in an attempt to have
the bill provide for the licensing of
business dealing in controlled COM
modities and for Government power
TO buy and sell such commodities.
House Bill Held Toothless.

ministration requests covering these
points, and consequently the House
approved bill has been criticized in

Most Senators said the chief
battles in the Senate probably would
revolve about price ceilings for farm
products and demands for controls

minded Senators, one of the most
potent combinations, have been ask
ing controls over wages and pro-
testing ceilings only on agricultural
products for several months.
