STUDY Up the Statute

Before the so-called luxury tax
had been in effect more than a day,
complaints were received by the in
ternal revenue bureau that it was
being abused. In some instances
customers of retail stores reported
that they were charged far higher
prices than the old prices plus the
new tax. Much of this over-charg-
ing it is true. was accounted for by
misinterpretations of the law by
salespeople. In other cases, how
ever. advantage was taken of the
tax deliberately to increase profits.
d. The public should not submit
to the practice. Redress is obtain
able under the law that imposes the
luxury tax. Dealers and salespeople
are liable to a severe penalty for
adding an excess charge to the re-
quired 10 per cent. Customers, as
we'll as those who sell comm odities
subject to this tax, should acquaint
themselves with the terms of the
law and should see that the meas
ure is not made a convenient instru-
ment for swelling profits on sales.-

The Magic of the Lamp

A room in which the colors of the
furnishings have been chosen with
the utmost care to harmonize the
colors can be transformed to a look
of heavy dullness by the mere
switching on of lamp. And, like
wise, rosy glow that suffuses every
thing and vies with the open fire
for the warmth of it's welcome can
also come from lamp. 1t all de-
pends on the color of the shade.
Oftentimes blue turns to green
when lights are turned on, and rose
color looks brown. Dull shades are
sometimes made bright and the love-
liest colors turned drab. And it is
all the fault of the lamp shade!
Sometimes by using dull-colored
shade the glow that is cast over the
room makes little change in the tone
of the furnishings. Often, however.
since the darkness of the night
makes brightness and cheer desir-
able, it is best to sacrifice some of
the BEAUTY of the colors in the fur
nishings for the sake of having a
brilliant lampshade. The ideal, how
ever, is to experiment until you find
Just the color that will look warm
and inviting when the lights are
turned on and yet will not seem to
dull the tones of your furnishings
