four very important projects have
been accomplished on the Island

individual members.

ADDRESS Of
DONALD w at a
recent meeting Of the
ST. Croix Landmarks League

ST. Croix Landmarks League
Mr.. Downs spoke as the dele
gate from the St. Croix Land
marks League to the Sixth
Annual Meeting Of the National
Council for Historic Sites and
Buildings held in Washington,
DC, November IA & IS 1852, par
ticuIarly reviewing the accom-
plishments Of the st. Croix Land
marks League over the past year
or two on the Island Of ST .Croix.
Said Mr.. Downs 1T was a great
pleasure for me to be at this
meeting in Washington as a dele
gate from the st. Croix Land
marks League, appointed by our
president. There were assembled
members and delegates from all
over the United States, a most in
telligent and interesting group.
One chatted here and there with
the editors of the New York
Times, Home and Garden Maya
zine, Antique Magazine, Holiday
Magazine, etc, architects from all
over the United States, presidents
of colleges and universities, di-
rectors and curators of museums
and art galleries, state and local
historians, the personnel of the
National Park Service and others.
This was a very important meet
ing as then, it was voted unani-
mously to amalgamate the Nation
al Council for Historic Sites and
Buildings with the National Trust
for Historic Presentation. In the
past their two associations had
worked side by side as one with
many of the same officers and di-
rectors in each. However, the ma
tional Trust, a non governmental
association the same as the Ma
tional Council had been approved
by an act of Congress. Therefore,
in the future it will be the "Na-
tional Trust for Historic Preser-
vation' generally termed "The
National Trust"
The meetings covered a two
day period, the first morning
when the business meeting was
held at the Hotel Statler followed
by a most interesting speech by
Mr.. Hepburn of the firm of Perry
Shaw & Hepburn Architects of
Boston who did the work of the
restoration of williamsburg, Vir-
GINA. Mr.. Hepburn's talk was IL

attending members and delegates
from member associations went
to the White House, where they
were received by Mrs. Truman
and shown over the completely
done over White House. That
evening there was a dinner also
at the Hotel Statler.

ber." that's a good sign against
loosening bristles in the future.
Painters say they test a brush
for bounce" by brushing the
briStles against the back of a
hand. A Springy and elastic feel
ing to them, with the bristles not
tanning out too much, means a
good brush.
Argument Over Width
What's the argument between
painters unions and contractors
over the width of a brushP
You've read about labor disputes
over a half-inch in brush width.
Well, obviously the wider the
brush you use the faster the work
goes, but the painters contend
that quality of work depends on
the right width for each speci-
fled task.
Brush manufacturers say that
a brush ranging from 8 to 6
inches wide can be perfectly sat-
lStactory for large flat surfaces.
But they add that the 4-inch
Evening star., 1953-10-17

brush is the most popular.
Brushes of this width are used
for walls, hatting, stucco or
calcimine.
Trim or sash. however, calls
for brushes ! to 3 inches wide,
with the most popular being 2 to
2h inches. For enamel. an
enamel brush is used.
Thin window sash, dadoes and
trellises require a fiat or oval
sash brush of the same size
l to 3 inches. Time can be saved
by using the widest brush prac-
tical for the job.
But when you come to calci-
mine or whitewash, widths of 6
to 8 inches are entirely prac-
ticable.

How to use paint brush is
one of the top secrets OF a
good paint job. The wrong size
or type of brush, or the right
brush used in the wrong way. not
only can ruin a quality paint job,
but also can ruin the brush.
Take a fiat brush and use 1t
to paint pipes and similar round
surfaces and you'll have a fish
tail" brush. It will look like
that.
Use fiat brush edgewise to
substitute for a narrow brush
and you'll wind up with "fln-
gered" brush. Painting with the
edge of brush causes the f1bers
to divide into clumps, or fingers.
which after few hours become
set in shape.
Squeeze brush into light cor
ners and crevices and you get a
matted brush with briStleS curled
and knotted hopelessly together.
Dip a brush too deeply into
paint and the uncleanable heel
will harden, swelling the ferrule
and spelling the brush.
Let your brush stand on its
bristle ends and the weight of
the brush will permanently curl
the briStleS.
Flagging Is Important
One sign of a good brush is
the amount of tagging" at the
ends of the briStles. This means
the splits in the bristle ends.
The number of flags" add to the
paint-holding capacity of the
brush. Hog bristles are naturally
ragged" Synthetic bristles are
artificially tagged"
Then take a look at the fer
rule, which holds the bristles. If

Daughters Dodge Duties;
Shift Burden to Mother

your sisters, have been so spoiled
that they dodge them. OF course,
there may be mitigating circum-
stances III their cases, but since
you mentioned none, I'm taking
the situation from your angle.
Your parents aren't doing their
daughters a favor by shielding
them from responsibility. Girls
who are old enough to marry,
must be made to shoulder at
least some of the cares of mar
ried life, though your mother
can't be wholly blamed for want
ing to cushion the worries of her
youngest child, at least. A girl of
II is too young to be married,
but when it is a fait accompli,
all that can be done is to teach
her to stand on her own feet
and face the world as wife and
mother, not as a carefree school
girl. Any protests you make
will be put down to "sour
grapes" so it's clearly up to your
parents to give their children
shove and make them stand on
their own. This will take little
time. so be patient and I'm sure
