the teen-agers to answer,
among them a query as to the
benefits" the children would
expect II their house was air
conditioned"
A teen-age panelist gave
this succinct reply:
"The difficulty about the
air conditioning is setting 1t
to suit everybody. The guys
wear sports coats and the
girls have to wear sweaters"
Another made this COM
ment probably not calculated
to warm the hearts of the
air conditioning people:
II think it would be nice II
you could do something about
the humidity. You end up
clammy instead Of cool, and
there's a big difference"
Another Waterloo
And the Better Heating
Cooling Council, an industry
trade organization, had this
question for the boys and
girls to answer: rs your pres
ent heating system pleasant
to live with?"
An outspoken youth made
this comment:
We'll. our heating system
is miserable, to tell you the
truth, because upstairs is al
ways cold and the downstairs
is warm, and then when the
heat goes of, the whole house
cools of. and then it takes
SO long for it to warm up, and
then as soon as it gets warm,
1t cuts of and gets cold
again."
On the some subject, an
other said:
q. it is all right, except
that our house is designed
in such a way that you can't
get the house at a constant
temperature. And since my
father likes the upstairs
warm, the thermoStat is
downstairs. He won't let any,
one downstairs let any cold

Let's Go On to the Next Question -

wanted to know how various
advertising mediums may
have influenced choice Of
plumbing fixtures. A girl pan
elist spoke up:
II don't believe my parents
would be influenced by any
thing they read" she said.
"They wouldn't be influ-
enced by anything they
read?" the surprised mod
orator asked.
Evening star., 1959-10-24

II don't think they would"
the girl said stoutly. "They
might. II something caught
their eye. they'd look at 1t.
but they are influenced much
more by their experience in
the past"
And so it went . Doubt

perience for the hopeful

air on anything. Therefore.
some parts Of the downstairs
are pretty cold, since we have
to keep them sealed of from
the thermostat. otherwise the
upstairs temperature will get
too hot or too cold. So 1t
isn't convenient. :"
A third panelist also had
some reservations about the
heating system in her own
house. She said:
g. Sometimes the heat
from the kitchen heats the
thermostat and the rest Of
the house gets cold. :"
At that point the modera-
tor exclaimed:
Lets go on to the next
question"
Fostering Is Lothed
The iconoclastic replies
spared none of the sponsors
completely. The National
Bureau for Lathing and Plas-
tering, also an industry trade
group, wanted to know
whether the kids liked plas-
tered walls. hoping, naturally,
that they did.
The following colloquy took
place:
:. Nails and things are
likely to chip plaster walls.
That is the only objection I
have to plaster walls. I think
for walls I would like it If
it didn't chip as much. For
ceilings, though, definitely
plaster"
A girl panelist had a ques-
tion.
II thought that If you just
put Scotch tape over the
place where you are going to
drive your nail it won't crack
your plaster" she said.
But then when you take
the Scotch tape off, the
wallpaper or paint come of
with it," was the boys reply.

AAAYBE the teen ayers
wv hadn't heard the die
tum: go along to get along"
Or maybe they were feeling
perverse. At any rate. they
threw a bit of CONSERVATION
into the ranks Of building
materials makers at recent
sessions Of the 1859 Family
Conference on Housing held
here recently.
The leading questions were
supplied by industries trying
to promote new and lavish
uses Of such things as bath
rooms, air conditioning, brick,
lumber. and automatic heat
ing. The kids supplied the
answers, and some Of them
were gems.
Purely American
A stenographic transcript
Of these sessions is crammed
with smiles. laughs and out
right outlaws, plus a great
deal of insight into a lot of
matters purely American.
For example, the brick
makers had a whole list Of
questions designed to elicit
comment on new vistas for
their product, and ran into
such teen-age replies as this:
Il myself do not care too
much for brick for an inter-
ior design because, for one
thing, If you rub your hand
against 1t. it is awfully rough,
and it could present a diff
Guilty when you put furniture
against it."
Discussing this question
posed by the Plumbing Fix
ture Manufacturers Associa-
ton, What do you think Of
the Importance of having
separate areas for husband
and wife for washing, groom
ing and dressing?", one teen
ager replied:
1T Is very nice, but I don't
think that it is terribly i'm
portant in the family. I don't
think they would pay an
extra $500 just to get the
privacy"
The National Lumber
Manufacturers Association,
also one of the sponsors, cook
ed up this question: TCan you
give us some examples Of the
use of wood in your home
that has especially pleased
you?"
Evening star., 1959-10-24
One Drowboek

One teen-ager answered
the question this way:
Our front porch is wood,
and I like it except where
Daddy has to paint it a lot,
and I think with a lot of lit
tie kids it gets more dirty
more often, and we have to
paint it more often than you
would if we did not have so

10 inches. with lilac flowers.
In addition to these four
there are several species not in
cultivation and o. jaburan has
a variegated form, variegatus.
Undoubtedly, o. Japonicus is
the best Of a spreading ground
cover, since 1t spreads by UNDER
ground stolons and so soon
forms a turf.
AS indicated above, the Lily
turf are not demanding as to
soil or situation. They do thrive
in shady situations and being
comparatively free from insect
and disease problems should be
more widely used than at pres
ent. The plant divisions should
be set out in the spring. but
fall planting is usually safe in
this area. Most paintings are
spaced a foot apart since within
a few years a solid row VIII de-
velop.
Few gardeners bother to feed
or care for their paintings Of

the value Of this little known

Lily-turf is the common
name for two related genuses.
Liriope and Monde. Both are
fall Towering perennials APP
parently hardy in this area and
In general have not been as
widely used as they deserve.
Perhaps 1t is q bit difficult to
get enthused over a plant that
is seldom mentioned in garden
literature. More especially, the
planting in the triangle at 18th
and Pennsylvania avenue.
which is largely on the Penn
sylvania avenue side, is too
dirty and drab to inspire gar
dening interest.
When used as a border in q
shady, or difiicult situation.
then the true value of the lily
turf becomes apparent. Seem
ingly they will thrive in almost
any kind Of soil. They will
grow in shade or sun. but are
best in shady situations. They
provide an interesting floral
display in the late summer.
The lily-turf has a dark
green, thick grass-like foliage
which varies from 6 to 10 inches
in height. depending upon the
species. The low-growing species
has been promoted as a substi-
tute for grass. but this use has
been well disproven. All make
a good ground cover but are not
q substitute for grass.
The species, L. muscari, is
probably the most commonly
grown in this area. Its deep
lilac flowers on tall stems sug-
costing the early spring flower

doubtedly the basis for the
name. However. this is q tall
growing species, is to 20 inches
which makes an excellent bor-
der plant for the north side Of

L. spicata is a creeper with
low growing foliage. about 8
inches. and a pale lilac or near

genus. also has two species-O.
