A rug of quiet and rich color
ing, either Oriental or domestic,
may be used not only as q floor
covering, but also as the basis of
the color scheme Of the room.
The lighter tones for the walls and
ceiling, the darker tones for the
floor and the richer colors for
draperies, upholstery. pottery.
lamps, etc.
Used in such a manner, a fine
n of unity and harmony can
be produced in any room. Carpets
are coming in again. In fact, they
are in. The return of the carpet
Is due to the sanitary ministration
Of the vacuum cleaner. Rugs have
not "gone out" but carpets have
"come in"
One reason for the growing
vogue Of the plain unpatterned
carpet Is the freedom thus allowed
for the use of figured materials in
window h~angings. upholstery or
walls; for with a figured rug q
figure In draperies is taboo. Then,
too, a small room carpeted to the
Dashboard looks larger than one on
which the floor is cut up by rugs,
no matter how beautiful they may
be.
Moreover, IL the floor covering
Is quiet and neutral in tone, more
vivid colors may be used in the
decorations of the windows and
upholstery.
Notwithstanding which, so long
as human kind love color and de-
sign, 20 long will rugs be placed
on the floors of our dwellings.

Should Rugs Say "He1lo?"

UGS should never say hello;
N at most they may murmur a
respectful Eat your service
Rugs are meant to be walked on;
they form a part of the back
ground of the room. They should,
therefore, be quiet and well bred
never noisy and assertive.
Rugs have improved, it must be
conceded, both in pattern and
color during the past ten years,
and in a remarkable degree, put
even now, in almost any stock, viii
be found a fair number of bad
dreams" and sad mistakes, called
by rug statesmen "brutes" and
"stickeYs."
People of taste avoid strong
colors, violent contrasts and mus
cular patterns in floor coverings.
They are always bad. AS a rule,
see that the rug is darker in tone
than the side walls, for the floor is
the foundation of the room as well
an part of the background
Should rugs be colorless and
wholly neutral in tone? Not nee
essarily. That would spell the
elimination Of the Orientals, and
every one knows there Is no more
beautiful, durable nor distin-
guished floor covering than a
really good Oriental rug.
But not all Oriental rugs are
good. Many are garish in color
and violent in contrast. And this
type of Oriental rug has no more
right to a place on your living
room floor than an ugly colored
Wilton or Administer.

The trim figure in the lutte

Somehow, as it moved, you gained
less an impression Of efficiency and
business ability than helplessness.
Barbara admitted to herself, for
the first time since her meeting
with Gerald Renard, that he inter-
fered with her work. her thoughts,
and her plans. She felt that she
was powerless TO combat the enc
ton she felt when she was with
him-and when she wasn't, she
spent all her time c~ontriving to be.
"This will never do" she unused.
eff Mr.. Byrdon discovers I've been
seeing Jerry he'll be wild" But
while she reasoned with herself
that it was all wrong her heart be-
haved disgracefully every time she
thought of her date with Jerry.
That evening. as she was dress

it she realized her mistake. Every

could not rid herself of the theory

the late Mr.. Donnes-
When the doorbell rang at 2
o'clock and Babs ran to nswer
it, an embittered widow watched
two young faces light with Joy.
In reply to Renard's greeting she
threw out a warning: "If you're
not careful Barbara's employer
may discover you two-and /
know he won't approve"
There was q gay reckiessness
about Jerry's retort: "He won't
fire Babs. And I don't mind being
fired because Of her. She's the
best reason I can think Of" He
took hold of Barbara's arm with
a frmness and a possessiveness
that almost frightened her, and
together they left Mrs. Donnes to
brood over the injustice of nan
and tomorrow's menu.
But to Babs and Jerry menus

dinner they had had together, and
If you laid the food consumed dur

Ousted from the Evansville fire de-

Democrats after Mayor Herbert
Males, Republican, was elected two
years ago, Lonnie Carter was or
dered reinstated in a decision by
Judge Caleb Lindsey, Boonville, in

Judge Lindsey also ordered the
city to pay Carriers salary from Jan.
6, 1926, when he was discharged,
to the present time.
Four similar suits, brought by
other firemen who were discharged
at the same time are pending here
and approximately twenty-five
others are being drawn, according
to BeX Trimble, Carriers attorney.
City Attorney Henry Hardin an
nounced motion for new trial
would be filed, and if overruled
the case would be taken to the State
Supreme Court.
Judge Lindsey's decision will eff

closed at the Republic Theatre last
Saturday is returning to New York
early in June. The Negro folk play
by Dorothy and Du Bose Hayward
is making a short tour. The produc-
ton is playing in Boston this week,
where it will remain a fortnight. Fol
lowing this the tour will take in the
cities of Washington, Detroit and

"Porgy" was to have been pre-
sented this summer in Germany under

who saw it here two months ago, but
the tour to Europe will wait a bit
at least until New Workers. have had
another view of the play, and the
other American cities are visited.
During its final week here "Porgy"
did almost capacity business, which
was a big surprise, considering the
lengthy run of the play.

CINCINNATI, Ohio, (By Mall. -
Reading so much in The DAILY
WORKER of what is going on in
other cities, thought it would inter
est readers elsewhere, to know what
we are doing in Cincinnati.
Primarily, we are devoting the ma
jor part of our efforts to helping the
miners. The secretary of the Penn
sylvania-Ohio Miners Relief Commit
tee has been here for a few weeks
and has arranged lectures, entertain
ments, etc. IN behalf of the miners
and has collected over S40O, together
with shoes, clothing, etc.
An Unemployed Council was formed
TO provide work, relief. etc, for job
less men and their families. They
called on the city manager, Col. C. o.
Sheriff. and, in cases where destitute
families had been refused relief by
the Associated Charities, took steps
to see that they were provided for in
tie matter of food, clothing, rent, doc
tor medicine, etc. But their demands
upon the welfare director being so
insistent, the most active members
of the Unemployed Council were pro-
vided with jobs. The homeless and
jobless men were handed over to the
City Mission (Which is maintained by
Col. VIM. Cooper Proctor, one of the
city's millionaires) and in that way
caused the Unemployed Council to
fall by the wayside'
However, a new Unemployed Coun-
Gil has been formed with three of the
comrades as a nucleus, around which
We expect to form an active, go-get-
ting committee that will produce
tangible results.
We are also having class one night
q week for new members, their
friends, families and interested SYM
pathizers, for the purpose of teach
ing the principles of Communism.
