In selecting hangings for doorways,
some of the principles that apply to
window curtaining are also useful,
For .xample, if the walls of the room
are covered with figured wall paper,
then the use of a plain fabric in a
somewhat darker tone serves to re-
lieve the severity of the door line and
at the same time frame whatever view
is glimpsed beyond it. In the picture
shown, which was taken by the bureau
of home economics of United
States Department of Agriculture, the
double doorway at the farther side of
the dining room leads to a sun porch,

Just low enough for the rings to slide

arranged as draw curiains by means
of a cord with two pulleys, a double
one at one end and a single one at
the other. The burean of home econo
nies will be glad to explain how draw
curtains are arranged.
Portieres or doorway hangings are
usually lined, unless the material is
decorative on both sides. The color
of the lining may match or contrast
with the right side of the curtain, but
more important, It must harmonize
with the color scheme of the room In
which it Is seen. The fabric may be
of the same or lighter weight.

Mr. Hoatzin Bird was sitting on the
limb of a tree, In the far off country
where he lives,
Along walked Mrs. Lovely Bird, who
had been so named because she was
so beautiful and so lovely.
“Good morning,” sald Mrs.
Bird politely.
“Good morning,”

“It makes not a particle of differ-

“But I've also heard it said that
you could hardly fly at all,” sald Mrs.
Lovely Bird.
“We can't. We're really hardly
birds at all, but somehow they called
us birds vears and years ago because
they couldn't think of anything else
to call us.”
Just then Mr. Hoatzin climbed to
another limb, and he used his claws,
neck and wings to get along.

This child's mother has made a spe-

so It will be attractive, and the little
girl always has her own dishes and

say also, “This food is for you-chil-

The furtrimmed idea is gaining.
Thas a touch of fur is wondrously ef
fective on gay sheer print is one of
the proud discoveries made In the
realm of fashion daring the winter
months and which because of its ex
ceeding great charm holds promise of
a widespread vogue for the fulure.
Be the dine or dance gown of sheer
print or of heavier crepe it Is almost
certain to be styled with a matching
Jacket and In almost every Instance
the sleeves of the complementary
jacket whether long or short or in
bolero fashion are quite certain to be
bordered with fur. Frequently the
temline of the jacket is also fur out
lined.
Chiffon In a woodland pattern done
fn vivid colors on a black baskground
is the chosen medium for the charm
ing frock in the illustration. Wide fur
borders the sleeves of its accompany
ing bolero. This winsome gown can
be transformed into an evening formal
simply by removing its short Jacket,
which is the way of most of the newer
ensembles, the demand for a matching
Jacket having Increased to such an ex
tent that practically every frock has
its accompanying Jacket,
An exception to the gown with a
jacket Is the shortsleeved dress,
This type also subscribes to the fur.
trim idea In that the sleeves, which in
some instances are not much more
than caps and from then on vary to
elbow length, are also bordered with
fur.
For the evening mode the new prints
are very gorgeous and for the most
part patterned in large florals. This
is In direct contrast to daytime prints
which are conservative both as to their
colorings which run largely to grays,
beige and browns together with black
and white, Navy as a background and
especially with white promises to be
in the lead.
