Have Made Sweet is sweet long after the flowers are gone. The sky glows long after the sun disappears. There are people who visit us that make us feel happier and richer and leave us lonelier and poorer when they go away. Few of us understand each other. Little some people know how dependent we are on something outside of ourselves. Often a single word or look would have changed an entire day. So many, of us stand hefore each other only as closed hooks contents unknown. All the summer long w,e knew when we came near the sweetness of the odorous honeysuckle along the back road or the scent of the magnolia and the smell of the lemon trefolia buslies.

The Chinese were amongst the oldest, if not actually the oldest, masters of dye ing. Even the Persians learned from them and improved upon the knowledge, so that fine Persian rugs surpass all others in love liness and time-defying colors. In rugs, the Chinese weavers hold to a comparatively few shades', notably blue, golden brown, orange Jjted soft pink in various combinations. Of late they seem to be wrning out rugs of heavier weight and closer texture. At least the pieces shown in this Oriental rug event would indicate as much. They are remarkably substantial and the choice of sizes, colors' and patterns is broad and fascinating. For many schemes of, decoration a Chinese rug fits in as no other rug will. Many a dining room, drawing room, bedroom or guest room would seem so much finer and richer and more satisfying with the addition of one of these pieces. There are all sizes from mats to carpets 15x20 feet, with a plentiful selection of pieces 9x12 and 8x11 feet. Prices, $25 to $2500, present a considerable saving from prevailing market values.
