The merchants have also been asked to make the bar gains to be given on the. concluding days the most appealing of any that have gone before.
 The series of bargain days which have been held in Ensley during the past 90 days have served to bring pa irons into this section in growing num- bers and has extended the shopping territory of this city over a very wide section heretofore accustomed to trad ing elsewhere.

Color in the composition of a room may be a valuable ally or a de- structive enemy-a servant or a tyrant.
 Color can lift a room of ordinary furnishing into something charm ing and unusual-or it can turn an interior filled with whimsically beautiful things into drab, ugly, utterly uninteresting spot.
 Not every woman can have elab- crate and costly furnishings, but every one can make a room orig inal, charming and thoroughly in- viting by means of an intelligent and unusual use of color.
 The basis of all colors and color combinations is found in three primary hues, red, yellow and blue. From these three, by va ried combinations and properly graduated proportions, all other colors are derived. Then the sec ondary colors, green, orange, viO- let.

Choosing the right
 color scheme

Colors are advancing, warm Cred, yellow), receding, cool (blue) and neutral. An assertive, strong, characterful color is called ad- vancinR; because such hues stimu- late nerve restlessness-they are know mas warm colors.
 A receding color is not .insistent; it gives the effect of sinking into the background; 1t has a quieting, restful effect upon the nerves and so is called cool.
 Neutral colors are often of a dull character, with no tone predomi- mating, such as gray, drab, putty, buff; etc.
 In selecting a color scheme first study the size and exposure of your room, then settle it's main color, avoid too much of any one and accent the main note by bits of contrasting and related colors> so as to secure variety.

Many Children's
Shooting Accidents
Suggests Need of
Laws with Teeth

Here is something I wish you
would call to the attention of the
public" said the chief clerk of the
inland fisheries and game department
yesterday. Il .have been requested
by numerous correspondents and Wis
itors, especially of late. to give some
thing to the newspapers regarding
the game laws governing the possess
sion of fire arms by children and the
duties and responsibilities of parents
and guardians in the premises. as
well as the jurisdiction Of the depart
ment of inland fisheries and game.
These requests have been made in
consequence of the large number OF
shooting accidents among children

conditions?" asked the press repre-
sentative.
Law Amendments SUGGESTED

Law Amendments suggested
MANY suggestions have been re-
ceived for amendments to the law,
the most feasible of which appear to
be the following:
Amend the air rife law so that
such fire arms as are found in pos
session of children under Ia years Of
age may be confiscated by game
wardens. Under the present law, the
only penalty is not less than S. nor
more than $50, imposed against the
party giving away or selling an air
rifle to such children. Some cor
respondents have recommended that
this penalty be increased also.
Another recommendation is that
no child under IA or 16 years Of age
be permitted to have fire arms IN
possession, except when accompanied
by parent or guardian, or adult rep
resentative thereof.
Other correspondents feel that the
commissioner Of inland fisheries and
game should be given more author
ity under Chap. 173-that the revo-
cation clause of this law should be
amended SO that the commissioner
would have authority to revoke a
boys license IL he figures in a shoot
ing accident of any kind"
