Shows Value of Taste
In Work of Daily Life

The value and purpose of the work
now being conducted at the Metropoli-
tan Museum of Art is that modern in
dustries trades, designers and decora-
tors of home interiors are helped to a
realization of the Importance of design
in daily life, of it's selling value in
commerce, of it's magic power to make
straw into hats, dyes and cotton bolls
into chintzes and ores into lavallieres.
Design is the most ordinary thing in
daily contact and experience. II Is in
carpets and teacups. In doorknobs and
buildings. IN automobiles and parasols.
It cannot be lodged. it cannot be de-
MED. Customers choose and buy on
the basis of II and they pay higher
because of its presence. The raw ma
terials Of clothing gain 500 per cent.
by virtue of skill and design before
the materials are ready for the con-
. sumner TO wear. Design makes or
breaks the product for the manufac-
turer. sells or kills the product for the
retailer. and by the same token II
helps or spoils home interiors.
From the museum these designers
go back to the factories, to the foun-
dries and the mills. Giant machines
work over their conceptions into wool
and silk and cotton. laundering
mechansms work over conceptions

since the war the pace that mas oeen

New York is unquestionably the huo

TO do with the cultivation and progress

Unseeing Eyes Pass by
Valuable Hints to the Wise

Mr.. Bach says that the use of an OBJ
iect Of art from an inspirational stand
point is very much like the use of
book for study; the same volume may
offer untold riches to one student and
remain bank and colorless to another.
He told of an Athenian vessel twenty
centuries old that had been passed by
thousands of visitors until designer
Of commercial containers saw it and
copied II as model for modern jar
to hold cosmetics. A tapestry which
had remained the despair of scores of
artists and designers was taken by a
manufacturer of rugs as the nucleus
of new designs to improve his own
product, A designer Of dress fabrics
spends most of his time in the alrnory
of the museum copying designs. as
does also a prominent maker OF neck
tie silks. A manufacturer of delicate
china gets designs from Russian laces,
a maker of sport skirts is receiving
inspiration from embroidered crests,
chased metal work affords an intricate
pattern for cretonne. Italian velvet
and French brocade is giving wall
paper manufacturer new thoughts for
decorative skill. Florentine bottles Of
colored glass furnish suggestions for
printed voiles and Chinese pottery
lends colors for painted furniture for
the boudoir. A painted soap wrapper

while a talcum powder receptacle is
half concealed in an ancient Japanese
print from a Shinto temple. An old

tisement of a movie" star, a Persian
lacquered book cover the conception
for a Palm Beach or Newport sash. a
Buddhist statuette the central thought
for the cover of a booklet advertising
mems clothing, while a Spanish fan
lends the play to forms and mesh for
costume laces.
In all cases the idea. the motive. the
form, the colors have been assimilated,
digested. melted down in the crucible
Of the designers mind and in their new
application or dss to suit modern needs
of material mode of production or
utility. In other words manufacturers
are giving art a chance to produce
money.
