Lighting Home
To Be Correct
Portable Lamps Perform Only
One Duty In The
Home
CENTER FIXTURE

By RENJAMIN R. FOX

By BENJAMIN R. FOX
However deserving is their
popular usage, portable lamps will
never effect complete discon-
tinuance of lighting fixtures since
they each perform distinctly
different duty in lighting the
home.
Frequently minor changes in fix
ture installations in homes already
built will considerably further bet
ter lighting. Seemingly obsolete
fixtures need not be condemned,
nor yet resignedly accepted, but
like old dresses remade. fixtures
may become quite rejuvenated by
changing their hanging height or
trimming them with shades.
Selection of fixtures for the new
home might be likened to the pur-
chase of a new hat-milIions from
which to choose, at various prices,
yet the decision will be made
through personal choice.
This problem will not be so
staggering if few determining
factors are kept in mind First, the
shape of the room; second, the
height of the ceiling. and third, the
color of the walls and ceiling
Center Fixtures Recommended
Center fixtures are heartily
recommended throughout the house.
and in long narrow rooms two are
advisable. These may be supple

The liying-room, dining-room and
bedroom are first to be considered
because in these rooms self ex
preston is evidenced, involving
wide variation in fixture choice.
The shower" fixture suspended
on chains used in rooms whose
ceilings are very high, is frequent
ly desirable because the light
source may be suspended at any
desired height.
For those to whom hanging
fixtures are Objectionable. those
carrying several lamp sockets
placed snusly into filter mounted
close to the ceiling may be had.
