Are You Matching Colors ?

one of the most trying and arduous
tasks in the job of the shopper is to
match colors 1t often makes all the
difference in the world IL two shades
as Just a nuance off. Something
like it," almost" mot quite" and
similar expressions usually spell dis
satisfaction to the assiduous shopper.
Matching the color is a task for the
skilled shopper, and here are some of
the ways in which she does it.
First of all, manufacturers have
done much to standardize colors. To-
day bois rose or beige means only one
shade each, not any one of several.
Through widespread cooperation, a
woman today can order powder blue
silk. wool, worsted. cotton, flowers,
nat and slippers without difficulty.
One hundred and fifty-four colors have
been standardized thus far.
New tints are constantly added SO
that the standard colors are not the
'old" ones. In most shops today a
woman need only to learn the name
of shade to be able to buy it in any
material or article that she may
choose. This fact will be of interest
to the woman who has had to tote
her stockings all over town to find
slippers to match, or vice versa.
At the same time a little caution
helps in the matching Of colors. Don't

We modern mothers are too apt to

its homely and alluring significance.

Men almost universally like pies

matter. Can you think Of any of
your acquaintances who would refuse
a piece of juicy BURBERRY pie Or
cut of luscious fresh peach pie or a
portion of green apple pie with
crust like frill about the edges?
