Shades and Screen for Fixed Lighting
Fixtures

The lights IN all sCoHCPs or brackets

OF screen to make them toierable TO the
eyes.
This becomes a problem in rooms done
in severe period fashion, for in the old
days, when candles were used, the light
was so soft as to need no sCreen-only
sometimes a glass globe 10 protect the
flame from draft. So We lind no prcce-
dent for our screens.
Electric light, however, Is too pow
erful to make for eas" in II room where
Il Is not shaded. We may use either
small candle shades of silk, guu2e (silk
lfned) or parchment, or we may use
screens of the same material, either one
to each light bulb or, ii the lights are
arranged In pairs, We may have screen
covering both.
In choosing the colors for these
screens we must consider the color
scheme of the room and also the colors
which best admit of the diffusion oi
light. We must choose from our cOlOl
scheme one of the warm colors, rose
amber, champagne or II soft yellow
never deep red or certainly never blue
green or violet, aS the latter give &

For instance. the league would be COM

were formed. And YOU would have TO

And I replied, ''Don't!
Don't try to be entertaining: there
is nothing more ,tircsome or unattrac-
tive than girl who is always putting
herself In the limelight trying to be
the center Of things.
Other girls who are starting out,
making friends slowly, accustoming
themselves to their new surroundings,
are bored with a girl of their own class,
a newcomer, who is forever attracting
their attention to herself.
They don't want to be bothered
with her.
