THE LIVING ROOM

If you prospective brides and
groons who are busy furnish
ing your homes can choose your
own wall decorations you can see
to it that if the living room is
dark light wall paper is chosen
or if very bright and sunny a
deeper shade is used. Avoid pa
pers with large, decided figures.
saw a living room done in a
paper that had a large bird sit
ting stiffly every few inches all
over it, and felt that if | had to
live in that room / should go
wild. Plain papers or small, in
distinct figures are much better
and afford a better background
for your pictures. Start with a
color scheme in your furnishing
so as to have everything har-
monize. Get as good furniture
as you can afford for it will re-
pay your care. It is Joy TO
polish good woodwork. Have a
few good pieces rather than a
lot of cheaper ones. You can
gradually buy more. What is
true Of furniture is true Of cur
tains and draperies. Good mate
rails will cost more but viii re-

longer than shoddy ones. How
ever, if you cannot buy expen-
sive things in the first place do
not be discouraged. There are
many inexpensive ones that may
look Just as pretty with a little
ingenuity on the part of the
bride and you can get better
ones later.

skating Without Ice

Skating Kinks, where ice skates are
used, without ice, is a new departure
IN Germany. The floor of the rink is
coated with composition made Of
various chemicals. including alum, So
IA and borisc acid, mixed with small
quantity of oil to reduce friction. The
stuff is melted and poured Oh the floor
ard when it hardens it has practically
all the qualities of real ice, without
the disadvantage of melting readily.
When the surface becomes too much
cut up, it can be refinished by going
ever it with a jet of steam, which
mclts it slightly, giving a new and
smooth surface.

A novel exhibition has been thrown

collection of toys entirely made by
children and brough together for the

boys and girls own invention, while
others were constructed under the sup

INSTITUTES MORE POPULAR.
Number of Meetings and Attendance
at Them is Steadily increas-
lno Each Year.

Both the number OF farmers insti-
tutes held each year and the attend
ance at these meetings is steadily in
creasing, according to a report on
farmers institute work which has
Just been published by the United
States department of agriculture as
Bulletin No. 269. During the last
year, the report states, 25,23S of these
Institutes were held throughout the
country, with a total attendance of
3,655,381. This is an increase in at
tendance of 90 per cent over that of
any previous year. On the other
hand, the expense of conducting the
work was nearly $4,000 less than
last year, the total cost being $447,-
-S97.51.
The farmers institute organization
conducts its work under many differ
ent forms so that it is almost impos-
sibIe to summarize its activities brief
Iy. For example, in addition to the
ordinary meetings, there were nova
BILE schools in Is states which had a
registered attendance Of 112,49S diff
ferent people. Field demonstration
meetings were also held In Is states,
although no record of the attendance
was kept Special railroad trains
were organized in IL other states for
the purpose Of giving lectures and
demonstrations A detailed analysis
of this work showing the number Of
different kinds of meetings in each
state, the attendance, and the dura-
ton of each, is contained in the bulle-
tin already mentioned. This bulletin
also contains number of notes on
AGRICULTURAL extension work of a sim
liar nature in foreign countries.

Under the government of Ireland
act of 1920, it was laid down that
northern Ireland (Ulster) shall con-

constitutes her frontier for all time
and that it cannot be abridged with
out the consent of the government,
