(Fourth Fleer) An Idealization of Se Seems the Christmas Shew of Furniture The cabinetmakers, "by royal appoint ment" te the Geerges and the Louises, could they see this Christmas exhibition, would likely be "took aback," as Cap'n Cuttle would say. Without undue complacency, however, they could say they had net lived and worked in vain. One may net be always conscious of it, but furniture has its own intriguing quality ' for everybody that is, certain furniture. Surely, this did net originate yesterday. We think it even antedates the time when men first learned te fashion things of weed. Probably it gees back te the beginnings of civilized living and further, te the be ginning of all things. It is in the heart of the infant whose little hands stretch out se impulsively for the thing that is ornate, gaudy if you like, or otherwise novel, just as it is in the hearts of kings and queens and laborers. Getting back te the cabinetmakers of tha Bourbons and the Haneverians, it is some thing te knew that the geed work they did lives after them, lives here today in a thou sand forms; that the spirit and outline of it remain in all their pristine attractive ness, only enhanced in many ingenious ways undreamt of in their day. We hope this is a Christmas furniture display worthy of the men who spent their lives trying te make furniture mere beauti ful and interesting. We hope it is worthy of the desire te make furniture the vehicle of an artistic aim; worthy, tee, of the desire te provide things of ease and luxury for people of years. Hew large and varied it ;s "c r ;.- ye'i te say, but all things censHe'"-! i ,' hi said that a piece of Wanami'r fr . t.jre, with your best wishes, is a gft of genuine value, a gift in gecd taste modern in the best sense, yet ir.timrtMy linked with what we can't help feeling were elegant and de lightful old days.
