Extend Sympathy
Back Mountain folk were sorry to
hear of the death of Mrs. David
Morgan’s sister, Mrs. Frances Evans
at Taylor this week, and extend
their symapthy to her. Mrs. Evans
died very suddenly as the result of
a heart attack on Saturday.
Combine Colors for Harmony
informal liveableness, or a
definite note of formality,
to make ‘the room a unit.
Your personality will be
expressed here. How do
you go about all this?
Take stock. See what
you have, think about what
you would like, and then
see what you would have
to do to get it. If new fur-
niture is needed, this is the
time to plan as the furni-
ture sales come in Feb-
ruary.
There are two factors
that can be used in any
type of room to tie it to-
gether—color and arrange-
ment. Soft blue and soft
mauve pink are good back-
ground colors in paint or
wallpaper. Our present
style in arrangement can
be applied as well to Co-
lonial and 18th Century as
to Regency, and to a more
limited extent to modern. But as this column is but a short piece, I can’t
go into detail. I can merely wake up your imagination, and your in-
genuity and give a few ideas.
Wall Pieces for Color
Have you thought of using a colorful piece of fabric to give both
color and personality to a hall, or a room with plain walls?
Such pieces
are effective either by themselves or back of a mirror. In a hall or room
with stairs leading out of it, they give color and pattern hung on stair
wall. Against cream walls with dark wood work, as in the photograph,
setting, use modern pattern.
«choose your pattern to suit the period of your furniture.

Spots of Decoration
Whatever your type of furnishing, windows and French doors can
be made decorative by use of plants or plant stands in front of them,
during the winter months. In the French Provincial room, illustrated,
informal in character, the window group of chair tables with lamps and
the plant in the window, has a lived-in look. On a wall with or with-
out a niche, an iron bracket, with trailing plants may be placed above
a small table.
In an 18th Century room, or an early American room,
with maple furniture, you can get the same decorative effect, but use
a hanging shelf.
In an informal room, put small pots of ivy on lower shelf
and small books and ornaments above—keeping the table under it and
chair by its side.
hanging shelf hung over colorful damask.
In a formal room, the ivy might be omitted and the
