A HOME

Many women have demonstrated
their abilities as interior decora-
tors, but Miss Emott Buel has
gone a step further and is now de-
sigDing stage rooms.
Her latest efforts in this direction
are shown in Fools Errant,' a
Broadway production. The interiors
she designed have so much char
acter with so little apparent effort,
and such balance and simplicity,
that ones first impulse is to ask:
Why can't we get such effects in
our homes?
So L went to see Mrs. Buel in her
studio full of antiques and bits of
loneliness gathered all over the
world, and put the question to her.
1T is much easier to get beautiful
effects in a home than on the stage
she assured me. 1T is not what you
I spepd, but how you spend it that
makes a successful room.
Study Rooms First
in decorating l always study the
room carefully and form a mental
picture of how the place should look
as a whole and build 1t as a whole.
| keep my values right and eliminate
when necessary. That's my system.
The first thing to consider is the
exposure of the rooms-dark rooms
or those facing on a court, need to
be decorated in bright colors-deep
yellows, bright blues, or that Italian
yellow-pink. Sunny rooms need to
be softened with neutral colors.
plain walls are by far the easiest
| to work with, paneled ones should
not be attempted without being most
carefully planned. Unless one par
| tg1tt1o ,1p MO nt. thA affnp, 90 1nNtr
ceiling, one should avoid drop cell
ings, wide holdings and wainscots
that break the lines and take away
from the simple dignity.
IF a house has these defects they
may be remedied by keeping the
woodwork, wall and molding all the
same tone.
IF one has very ugly furniture
and sometimes we do have-this fact
may be rendered less obvious by
doing the walls in a very lovely
color or in a figured pattern that will
draw attention to its own beauty
and keep ones eyes away from the
badly designed chairs.
in a room where much figured
material is being used and where
there are many colorful objects to
be used, the walls should be of an
lnconSplcuouS color ana the ndnS-
ings subdued.
MANY rooms are ruined by a bad
floor treatment. Conspicuously new
hardwood floors, yellow and shiny,
often throw a whole room out of
key. They should be mellowed Gown
to a dark, inconspicuous tone.
"Windows are most important.
Some of the most effective curtains,
however. are also the cheapest. One

Your Health
(By DIR. II. II. Bishop
Normal Development

NOTt1ldi D~CtCioDilth
Each one of us has a certain nor
mai size to attain. Whether we
reach his size or not depends large
~ on the first few years of our life.
IL we have good care and are well
nourished up to the age of five or
six, the chances are we shall reach
that normal height and weight.
There are two periods when the
growth of children is especially
marked. They are, first. from six
to nine years of & in boys and
girls, and second, from eleven to
thirteen in girls and from fourteen
to sixteen in boys.
Increase in height should be fol-
lowed by an increase in weight.
Whenever there is an increase in
height in progress, the child is apt
to become thin and anemic. This is
because the making of bone quickly
uses up the red corpuscles in the
blood. The child becomes nervous
and irritable and requires extra
care, both at home and in school.
He should have plenty of rest at
this period, and care must be taken
in the selection of his diet. He
should not be pushed ahead at
school, and If worried over his
studies, a vacation may be desirable.
Proper nutrition plays a large
part in satisfactory growth and de-
velopment.
Easily digestible food is important
during infancy and childhood.
A healthy appetite for plain,
health-producing food should be cul-
tivated from the beginning. Much
dyspepsia and ill-health in later life
is due to early food i~rregularity or
indulgence in wrong kinds of food.
The mental growth must be care
fully watched from the beginning,
as the impressions made on our
minds during childhood are ones we
carry all through life.

LAUNCHING THE MARRIAGE

: BY ZOE :

mendous news.
Inside a white-enameled fence
that made al enclosure five feet
square a chubby year-old little lady
wobbled in her first efforts to walk.
Her pink rompers were adorned
with an embroidered chicken and an
embroidered pup respectively, and
On the wee o~verblouse was an m
hroidered kitten. These cherished
animals served a noble purpose.
Whenever their owner fell down,
to see if any Of them were hurt
which saved many a baby tear.
Just now her round cheeks were
tanned with sun and flushed with
pleasure. her blond curls awry with
the breeze. Her fingers were tightly
clutched about a gnarled forefinger,
and a deep seagoing voice gently
rumbled:
"Avast there. Commodore. port
your helm or you'll sink your craft.
You're a bit short of sea-legs and
you heel too much to leeward. But
your old shipmate's standing by"
And the baby gurgled and beam

in her voice. But you're a spe-
cialist in navigation so l oughtn't

her dinner. Will you come and get

Captain Dale heaved up his big
bulk reluctantly.

"Listen!"

Around the curve of a boulevard
that led from Manhattan Island to
the pretty new suburb of West For
est Hills, in Queensborough, swept
a bright new Gypsy, with Fred Dale
in the seat. He swirled up to the
porch, jumped out, tossed Nora for

locks which needed no rumpling.
