Women's coats and suits and hats
are not the only things that show
color this season. The windows in
In1iana homes, II they are up-to-date

petticoats ruff1ed in colors and

look as gay in them as a group of
bridesmaids at a rainbow wedding.
And the feature of all the window
wear, according to Magnus Manson,
buyer for the drapery department at
the Pettis Dry Goods Company, is
color, whether the material used in
wolfe, cretone or rayon.
"The use of white or cream mar
quisette curtains with ruffles of color
is one OF the most noticeable fea-
lures of this season." Manson said.
There are curtains with rufies to
match any bedroom color scheme,
and nothing adds more to the beauty

TIME TO BUILD,

The bone builder now has a great

beginning of the World War, &C

itect, Fl Virginia Ave. Good con-

claring now is the opportune time
for the man who intends to build a
home to get plans drawn and start
the necessary steps that must be
taken before the construction Of a
building can be begun.
According to Cannon, whose pro-
fession keeps him in close touch with
building conditions. cost OF materials
and labor are now steady.
There is not in the immediate
future any likelihood of AUCTIONS in
building costs, Cannon said. Prices
have become stabilized and the man

will not profit by delay as there is
nothing to indicate a decrease in
building costs during the coming
season. Instead OF gaining by delay.
Cannon declared. the man who waits
will lose an opportunity to obtain
the services of good contractors and
good workmen, because these will be
swamped with work in the normal
progression Of the spring building
activities.

PORCELAIN TUBS
MAKE BATHING A
FINE ART TODAY
Modern ConvenIences Serve
to PopuIarize Sanitation.

Way back in the days Of Rome's
glory. bathing used to be a fine art
and folks took a bath because they
enjoyed It rather than because they
needed it. But when the dark ages
came. the popularity OF the bath
waned, and, considering the bathing
facilities provided in those days, 1t
isn't to be wondered at. Even fifty
years ago a bath meant q swim in
the creek or an unsatisfactory splash
or two in a tin tub.
Not infrequently the tin tub was
used on other days for washing the
clothes. and 1t was real luxury to
have a bathroom with a painted tin
tub encased in a wooden framework.
Luxury, that is. until the cock
reaches discovered that wood en-
cased plumbing was just the sort
of home they preferred. Bur- why
recall such unpleasant things.
