Holiday Display Room.
N passing through the Sixteenth
L street lobby of the State Bank
building, Polly paused in amaze at
the sight that greeted her eyes the
other morning. Drawing more than
ere person through the big glass
door opening into the lobby, is a
wonderfully arranged display of
oriental rugs hung upon a back
ground of dull mahogany panels.
Heavenly blues, rich tones of red,
blue and brown, as we'll as magnih-
Gently colored rugs in dainty shades,
all strinkingly eloquent reminders
that oriental rugs make the choicest
of gifts. On entering the showroom
one enjoys also the grouping OF
artistic pieces of gift furniture in
dull, dark mahogany. Priscilla sew
ing cabinets, knitting standards,
oddly-shaped tables, many surpris-
ingly low-priced, suggest themselves
as possible and probable gifts. This,
my dears, is the display room which
