o' oc5tene 40 he Successful Should Be Based on Use
10 Which Rooms Are To Be Put and Their Dimensions

assist and aid the eye in immediately
explaining hte structural features Az. any
dlvlslons OF the room. Architecture
should not appear as merely a baek-
ground for decoration, but the decora
Ilon should be subservient to the arehi-
lecture, tending to strengthen and en-
phaslze its lines. In many cases the
structural lines are weak or missing
and 1t is necessary for the decorator
TO supply in some way points of
decorative interest that will tend to aid
IN strengthening the structural aspect.
Some rooms have more architectural
details than others and to these in
many cases, no color is applied as for
example; columns, beautiful woodwork,
pilasters, etc, in which case the scheme
ftreatment must be arranged to fall
IN accord with these permanent
features, so as not to weaken their
natural color or strength of line, II,
however, color is to be applied the
decorator should sufficiently emphasize
these details so that they will not be
overwhelmed by blaze of color ap-
piled to less active portion of the
building, such as the wall. AS gem
eral rue then, we may say that the
selection of color not only depends
upon the use to which the particular
room will be put, but also on the
architectural features it contains.
What Is Best for Small Rooms
1t is customary to use very pale
tints, jupst off the white, for the trim
IN small rooms, as it reflects more light
and gives the impression of greater
size. The same treatment of trim.
however, in large wcll-lighted rooms
would be entirely out of place, just as
a dark trim that would look we'll in
large room should avoided in small
rooms since it only tends to apparent
iy diminish their size.
In low ceiling rooms perpendicular
lines, such as narrow painted panels
could be introduced to extend the feel
ing. of height, while horizontal lines,
such as, chair rails, friezes, etc, that
only tend to accent the lowness of cell
ing, should be carefully avoided.
The size of the particular room, its
height and natural illumination also
impose certain limits as to the colors
that may be used to best advantage in
it's decoration. The old idea of simply
deciding on this as pink room or that
as blue room is not enough, il the
best results are to be secured unless

BY julius Rose
Of J. Rose G Co.

Wherever gas is obtainable- and
that is nearly everywhere nowadays-
the gas range has taken first place in
the kitchen. With the advance in
modern conveniences, oven insulation,
equipment and sanitary construction
there is no method of cooking more
efficient for all purposes than gas.
Even in remote country districts many
kouseholders cook by gas, depending
upon shipnl ents of gas in tanks.
As for the big cities, who could
imagine them without gas ranges :?
Try to picture one of our ten-story
multiple apartment houses with an
old-fashoned coal stove in each apart
ment and you will realize how revolu-
tionary has been the effect of using
gas for cooking. Talk about the SER
want problemi Bad as it is for most
of US, how much worse would it be if
we lacked this sanitary and conven-
lent means of obtaining heat at the
moment it is needed.
Gas Range Boon to Housewife
The gas range has not only elinli-
mated the irksome work of carrying
and loading fuel, but modern cabinet
ranges make it possible for house
wives and cooks TO watch their yiands
from a standing position.
The advantages mentioned are of
course only the obvious ones. The up
to-date range has gone much farther
than merely to improve on the coal
stove in these simple respects. To-day,
a good gas range is SO fully equipped
with time-saving and labor-saving ap-
pliances that it almost cooks the din
ner unattended. At least it allows the
mistress of the house for something
else the hours formerly spent lowering
over a hot stove.
Modern sanitary finishes, or porce-
lain or porcelain enamel, and pol
ished black surfaces, have made clean
ing easy and eliminated blacking alto
gether. The range, instead of being
cumberous, unattractive object, has be-
come a thing of beauty.
The appearance Of the modern gas
range responds to the demand of house

Perfection Of Gas Range

Health of Family; Attractive Fixtures Nov;

wives for cheerful, dainty. al1uring
kitchens, in contrast to the dull and un-
systematic ones of q few years ago.
Some OF the ranges are of pure white
enamel throughout, and add wonder
fully to the attractiveness OF the kitch-
en- Others are gray, and black and
white; and the finishes are actually
burnt into the metal, giving perrna-
nently glossy surface which is very
easy TO clean.
Rangemakers have exhausted the in
genuity of inventors and designers IN
their efforts to cut down the gas con-
sumption of their ranges. Better in
sulated ovens, automatically regulated
burners and wide varieties OF burner
sizes, all have contributed to the 1uei
economy of the gas range. The better
ranges also heat much more quickly
than the old style range, which means
that less gas is used IN attaining the
proper baking temperature.
Advice for Gas Users
There are many ways in which eco
nomy must depend upon the cook. The
best range IN the world will become
clogged up, or will burn an imperfect
MIXTURE, unless it is watched and at
tended to occasionally, and either OF
these conditions will result in some
Wdelc VI IL - o8k ~ ASt~S 49,
much you can reduce your gas cost III
a year by the simple habit of turning
off the gas before, instead of after,
removing the utensil. Never use
large burner for a small utens2l. And
be sure that the fame always burns
blue, never partly yellow. The blue
fame results from q perfect mixture
Of air and gas, and this is regulated
by the valves on each burner.
To the wise home builder the selec-
ton of a gas range is not matter to
be decided off hand. Not only the
nourishment and health of the family,
but the sanitation of the kitchen de-
pend upon the type of range you choose.
The variety of styles and sizes is al
most unlimited, and your choice will
be largely dependent on the size of
your family and the space you have in
your Kitchen. Get the size that will
serve you longest, it viii allow as great
variety of meuns as possible.
New-York tribune., 1921-06-26

study OF conditions has shown the
room suited to scheme Of that nature
Sequence of Color for Interior
All colors for the interior must be
chosen from the harmony Of sequence
or the harmony of contrast. The har-
mony of sequence may be composed of
tones of one color or of related colors,
such as yellow, yellow green, green,
etc. In small rooms that are poorly
lighted pale tints of this harmony
could be employed to advantage. The
harm ony of contrast, on the other hand,
consists of those colors that are in no
way related, as for instance, red and
green, or orange and blue, the sharp
ness Of contrast depending upon how
nearly one color compliment the other
and on whether the coiors are strong
or weak. Pure or strong colors are
seldom used in the interior except in
small spots until they have been neu-
tralized by the addition Of another
color or extended into their tints or
shades by an intermixture with white
or black
The size of the room to be decorated
imposes in general way certain limits
as to the colors that may be used to
advantage. For example, in large
rooms cold receding colors would best
be avoided, as they only tend to make
the room appear larger, more formal
and uninviting. In the same WY
sharp contrasts should be carefully
avoided in small rooms, as contrast in
wolves warm advancing coors that al
ways tend to make room look smaller.
The advancing or luminous colors are
those which contain red or yellow in
the asccndancy, while the cold receding
eolors are those in which blue predon-
mates. These shades of green ap-
preaching yellow may be considered ad-
vancing colors and the same with violet
as it approaches red, but green or
violet as they near blue become, in the
reverse way, cold colors of receding
nature. All colors or hues may be con-
sidered advancing or receding, accord
ing to the ascendancy of orange or blue
in their composition.
Height of Room Factor
The degree of natural illumination
and the height of the room to be dec
Grated also influence the selection of
color. For instance, in small rooms
with low ceilings, that are we'll lighted,
New-York tribune., 1921-06-26

the harmony of sequence should be en-
ployed of receding greens and blues,
with cool gray as the dominating
color, while luminous, advancing colors
should be avoided. Large low ceiling
rooms, however, that are poorly lighted,
should incline toward a dominating
color that will be softly luminous, such
as a soft orange, yellow or yellow
green, for these tints of sunshiny ma
ture, if carefully arranged with con-
trasting color, will do much toward
Tightening and frightening the dull,
gloomy atm osphere.
dominant color, as mentioned
above, should be planned for each room,
color that will prevail over the
others by it's greater area and strike
the keynote upon which all of the other
colors are based. This dominating or
controlling color is quite essential, for
1T lends repose and character to what
otherwise would result in a room where
each individual color claiming the same
amount Of attention would cause the
eye to wander here and there until the
final impression would be far from
restful, regardless of how pleasing the
colors might be.
Few Words of Wisdom
Here are few practical suggestions
of color treatment: In small rooms
avoid luminous or advancing colors,
use light woodwork, avoid contrasts
and employ harmony of sequence in
soft, receding colors. If the result is
q bit somber it can easily be relieved
by touches of bright color in the
