to the enchanting lived-in
quality of the house. Fresh
flowers, beautifully polished
furniture, well-used fireplaceS
and bright silver are the as
founding product of only
Mary Chewing, and Tilly,
who has been with the
Chewnings for more than 16
years and brought up all the
children.

and pastures. The entire fam
lily rides and they keep six
horses and two ponies, in ad-
dition to raising a herd Of
Aberdeen Angus cattle. This
makes for active hours (and
long ones) on the farm side
of life.
Popular Emily Blair, the
oldest child and only daugh-
ter, goes to nearby Madeira
School. She can pitch right

comes to doing things at

cooking goes on more fire.
quently than not.
Entertaining is casual and
often impromptu. Especially
on summer week ends, friends
who find themselves drift
ing toward the Rocky Run
pool and shaded terrace usu-
ally end up as dinner guests.
With astonishing lack of fuss
and frenzy, children pick
fresh corn, tomatoes and let
tuce from the vegetable gar
den steaks or game come
out of the freezer and
few can bear to leave the
heavenly place?
Mary claims to have sacri-
ficed quality for quantity
when she moved from the
city to the country, but both
abound. On Sunday evenings
as many as a dozen children
cook hamburgers by the pool
all unplanned-and then
play ball in the dusk. Mean
while their parents enjoy q
leisurely cocktail hour and
later sit down to a delicious
meal of quail or pheasant

hunting season and cooked
by him on an outdoor grilD.
Dinner is served at a long
glass topped table centered
with flowers and candlelight.
There's a guest house near
the swimming pool that is a
miniature treasure. It boasts

the switch from city roles to
country roles with grace and
fun.
Rocky Run Farm is a bu-
collie oasis where. by some sort
of minor miracle, none of
the surrounding suburban
houses are visible and where
it is impossible to hear a
passing car, although the
great web of concrete road
way loops close behind the
wooded hills that edge the
fields.
The main house is a study
in contrasts. Mary Chewing
has successfully brought off
a marriage of the old and the
intensely modern. When they
bought Rocky Run the
Chewnings added a small
wing to the rambling old
farmhouse. With a sure touch
and a lot of nerve-the
bedroom, dressing room and
bath were built and decorated
in wholly contemporary fash
ion.
A roofleSS. glass-enclosed
patio with a small fish pool
and an eSpaliered magnolia
tree leads from the chalk
white bedroom into the green
bath with a sunken tub, glass
shower and heated brass
towel racks. The bedroom has
wide, floor-to-ceiling sliding
glass doors in two opposite
walls which bring in the out
side lovelinesS of the country.
Brilliant blue with a occa-
Sional accent of green is the
only color used in the room.
Abstract paintings hang on
the white brick walls.
The rest of the house is
done in warm colors and
gives an impression of COM
Portable charm. A fine Early
American painting of Henry
Clay, and a bath-size porce-
lain bowl that belonged to
George Washington dominate
the entrance hall. Five dogs
and four children contribute

only two little bedrooms and
a bath. Each bedroom has a
minute fireplace with prop
erly scaled andirons, a cano-
pied bed of early Newport
design, hooked rugs and a
lovely old cherry chest. Like
the main house, the rooms
are filled with flowers and
books. Its an atmosphere that

is not conductive to hasten
ing the departing guest.
In the meantime, away
from Rocky Run, the four
children lead full days at
school Scholastically and ath-
letically, Taylor is busy at his
office in town, and Mary is
collaborating on a musical
comedy that is aimed for
Broadway next fall.

DrywoII UPkeep
By HERMAN BAUM
Contributing Writer

1.-TWO years ago we bought
a new home. One of the
things that determined our
selection was the builders
insistence that we woulc
never be troubled with plaS-
ter cracks which plagued us
in a home we formerly had.
This house has dry walls.
However, cracks have de-
veloped at several of the
joints where two sheets of
gypsumboard come together.
The builder has long since
moved away. How do we go
about repairing these I'M
slightly cracks?" Mrs. K. D. S.
writes.
Answer-When a builder
tells you that you never will
be troubled with plaster
cracks in dry walls, he is be-
ing completely honest in his
statement. If you trade in
your jalopy for a horse you
will not be troubled with gas
mileage although you may
inhehrit an oat mileage prob
lem which is a horse of a
different color.
Since there is no perfect
building material, dry walls
are subject to their share of
troubles and cracking seams
is one. If gypSumboard joints
are carefully closed with tape
and Joint cement and if the
building suffers only minor
settling. you may never see
an open joint.
Cracked joints can be re-
paired to be just as inconspi-
cuous as the original job.
Naturally, the walls will re-
quire painting after the work
is done. -
When a painter encounters
open joints, he merely fills
them with a patching plaster
and paints over them. The
cracks should stay closed I'M
til he gets paid, but little
more can be expected.

scraper or putty knife. Be
careful not to damage the
paper face of the gypsum
board.
Joint cement can be pur-
chased from any building
supply store. A roll Of perfor-
ated tape should be packed
in the bag. Mix this cement
with water as stated in the
instructions. If you do the
mixing in a covered con-
tainer, the material may be
kept for several days. If the
mix is a bit on the soft side,
it is easier to use.
The depression formed
when you removed the old
cement is filled level with
the fresh mix. A strip Of the
tape is Immediately placed
over the soft cement and
pressed firmly into it with
the joint tool. Be sure to
press out any air bubbles.
Now, allow the cement to
harden which will require
about "a hours.
More Cement
The final operation is to
cover the tape with more
joint cement. This can be
done with the wide blade
joint tool, but a trowel makes
the job easier. This joint
trowel looks like a plasterer's
trowel except that there is a
slight bow in the blade.
The cement is placed over
the tape in a very thin layer
and feathered out one to two
inches on each side. Make
this application as smooth as
your skill permits and allow
the cement to harden.
If inspection shows that
some areas are rough, these
can be Smoothed by light
sandpapering with a medium
grade paper.
1t may then be necessary
to apply a second coat OF
joint cement. Extend this
about a half Inch beyond the
first coat and smooth it to 6
feather edge. When dry
sandpaper this, too, if neces.
sary. With little effort, vol
can produce joint that will
be invisible when the wall /!

Square Dance
Time

One of the. greatest changes in
square dancing over the re ce
years has occurred in the sound or
calling. The old time patter call,
while sometimes less complicated,
was often more colorful than to-
days steady flow of directional
commanding. Phrases like Here
we go with the little red wagon,
hind wheel broke and axle drag
gin Just don't show up in today's s
patter. Gone completely from the
scene are bits like meet your hon
ey, pat her on the head. 1t she
don't like biscuit, give her corn
bread. This call actually had ref
erence to styles of dancing. or
example, biscuit referred to a
type of waist swing. while corn
bread was a swing to use when
the ladys stern parents were look
ing on two hands fully extended
for the grip!
Even today there are various
styles of dancing the same calls in
different parts of the country. Ber-
ma Morgan has recently returned
from a visit to Cordele. Georgia
where she danced with the Mel
on Rollers and participated in the
Watermelon Festival there when
that club and the "Dooley Coolers
Whitley joined her they danced
with the "Rafter Rockers in AL
bany, Georgia. They found a couple
of slight differences in styling they
thought were interesting. In al |
allemande left and a grand right
and left they use a thumb up hand
grip and the men twirl their part
ners and their opposites as they
meet them.
Three years ago there was hard
ly any square dancing in that part
of Georgia. Now there are so many
clubs that they have formed county
federations, Many clubs there. as in
many other parts of the country,
are sponsored by the county. state
or city Recreational Department
and halls are usually furnished
free by the Department to encour-
age this wholesome form of rec
reation.
The next dance in Milford will
be this Saturday night, August 18th
when Jim Cargill OF Sewell, New
Jersey will be the caller. You can
always expect a nice peppy dance
when Jim is calling. Visitors who
just like to watch are invited to
come inside and sit down where
they can hear the calls and better
appreciate what is going on.

in many places become a
