The ceiling Of a room usually

using white ar ivory for ceilings
has bccu greatly abused. The better
practice of the good painter Of
today is TO finish the ceiling with

light on white ceilings is no; rest
ful. and the use Of ivory doe not
always produce the desired results
The most necessary element Is
rcstful reflection OF approximately
81 per cent OF light or the absorb
;ion of not more than So TO 10 per
cent Of the light which enters the

PLACEMENT OF
FURNITURE CAN
BE EFFECTIVE

A good rule to follow in choosing
furniture is to avoid anything which
strikes you as elaborate or promi
nent. If o certain piece of furni-
ture, carpet, or curtain material
stands out in a shop, you may be
quite certain that it will be even
more noticeable in a house. In
building a new house, it is possible
to plan with the future in mind.
In choosing correct forms for
furnishings, persons can be guided
only by their natural perception of
good form and lines. In furnishing
rooms that are low and long, it be-
comes evident at once that they
should not contain high, narrow
pieces of furniture. neither should
a high small room be furnished with
short, broad pieces. Slender, fragile
furniture and fabrics of delicate de-
sign are entirely out of place in
rooms where there are beamed cell
ings and heavy woodwork.
A house can be considered proper
" furnished only when it meets the
real needs of the occupants. Com
Portable chairs, sofas, and beds,
good tables, and soft carpets and
rugs are the most important objects,
and these should be the best that
the family can afford. No definite
rule can be applied TO the arrange
ment of the furniture, but balance
and wall space should be considered
first. Where a single opening is
placed in the center of the wall, or
like openings at equal distances, the
wall spaces will be in balance; in
the case of unequal openings, the
wall space will be out of balance.
At balanced wall spaces, place
pieces of furniture of relative size
and contour. These may be tables,
chairs, sofas and pictures. Leave
the more intimate and personal furn-
iture, such as favorite chairs, sew
ing table and footstool for group
ing at one side or in the center of
the room.
Balance Desired
In room with unbalanced wall
space, place against the longest
spaces the largest pieces of furni-
ture-the piano, the bookcase, the
. davenport - grouping, perhaps, a
table, mirror, and chair against n
smaller and opposite wall space.
This permits the comfortable chairs,
tables, lamps and pottery to relieve
the stiffness, since they may be
Imperial Valley press. (El Centro, Calif.) 1907-current, 1930-02-03

grouped in the center of the room.
Another way to be successful IN
arranging furniture is to think Of
groups from the very start and to
govern the sizes of the groups ac-
cordinc to the amount of wall or
floor space of the room. 1t Is cas-
Ter. also to consider central group,
because. whether a room has flre.
place or long wall space, central
group is easier to reckon from as a
starting point. Fireplaces IN rooms
immediately become the object or
interest, and the central group
should be planned from the hearth,
This group may be arranged at
either side or directly in front or
the fireplace, such as two small
settees placed opposite each other
or one big sofa placed at right an,
Giles. with comfortable chair and
q small table opposite to balance.
Also. the more popular arrangement
of large sofa placed Immediately
in front of the fireplace, with ia
he directly back of it, makes con-
vcnient central grouping, but one

dot more than three of these later
stalks arc allowed to develop they
will attain height of between four
aud five feet. A single plant if well
cared for and grown under favora-
bic conditions may produce three
sets of fewer stalks.
There is no easier flower to grow
than the hollyhock. If you have a
friend who has had them growing,
YOU should be able to obtain young
plants now after the warm rains
which has just fallen. They may be
tlansplanted when they have the
original two leaves or wait until
they have four, but as general rule
the sooner they are transplanted the
Better, as they soon develope quite
surprisingly long taproots. If there
isn't any garden available from
which YOU may secure young plants
purchase packet of seed and SOW
them in the beds preferably where
they are to grow. Keep the ground
well moistencd. Sprinkling the seed
bed in the morning rather than at
night is preferable, as this gives the
ted a chance to warm up. whereas,
if it is springfield at night the plants
get chilled and their growth is re
tardcd.
Plan now for some picture IN
YOUR garden this spring and sum
mer. There are many such combina-
lions. which viii make of your yard
beautiful spot, both from the IN
side of your house, and from the
street.

Every farm should have a good
repair shop, well equipped with a
strongly built carpenters beneh.
Good tools and other equipment
should also be considered as neees'
sarv for doing satisfactory repair
work. 1t is advisable to have III. ad.
dition to the repair bench a small
iron bench, which will be found to
be preferable for some types. OF
work. The plan shown above Is a
suggestion for n modern shop. ~
is we'll to build the shop with loft
for storage purposes, using ~ or i.
floor studs for the walls.
The motor drill, emery wheel, saw,
and grindstonc can be placed along
the rear wall, and may be connected
to a y, inch line shaft, 10 feet long
A buzz saw for cutting firewood 10,
Gated outside the shop may also be
operated from the same line shaft.
MANY would want a shallow lumber
rack along the wall at the left OF
the double door. The equipment Is
so arranged as to leave ample floor
space for repairing machines or
building new farm eonveniences. d
The shop shown is 90 feet long
and l6 or Is feet wide. 1T is a mis-
take to make the building too small
as it quickly becomes cluttered and
is too cramped a space in which 10
do ones work effectively. The win
dow By the saw is so located that II
a machine such as a mower is hauled
into the shop for repair. the lower
sash may be raised to let the tongue
of the implement slide through. in,
one shop which was built from this
plan, this window is replaced b. a
door.
The plan also shows the location
Of the forge, anvil, slack tub and

ARMY SNOWBIRDS'

Of the snow birds the LIST Army Pursuit
Group of Selfridge Field, Mich, from

back through one of the most severe
Northwest Winters on record, was de-

as he told of the cold days he and the
members of his squadron labored with
frozen, balky motors on the windSwept
prairies of North Dakota and Montana
and of the 5-degrees-below-zer tenn
perature they encountered as they
scaled the Great Divide.
Leaving Selfridge Field on January
10 with Is pursuit ships and trans
port planes the squadron flew through
snow and sleet and cold over 1900
miles of frozen country to land back
at Selfridgs Field 19 days later with all
but one pursuit ship and no serious in
1ur1eS to report.
One Plane Wrecked.
The one missing pursuit ship, the
only major casualty of the flight, lay in
pieces near a barn at Beaver, N. Oak,
where it had crashed as Lieut.. e. K.
Warburton attempted to make an
emergency landing in binding snow
storm.
The group was on its way back from
Spokane. They left Miles City, Mont,
the morning of January "a, bound for
Fargo, N. OAK, via Bismarck. They
had weather report promising them
1,000-foot ceiling all the way. AS
they neared the North Dakota border
they ran into snow storm
Suddenly. Beach, N. OAK, doomed

buildings, and they weren't very high
buildings either, so you know how low
we were flying" said the major. at

down looking for a soft place. I cut
my gun and noSed down. I saw a
wheat field through the snow and then
three fences-I ran through all three
of them. could hear my flight milling
around up there in that terrific storm,
occasionally one of them dropping
down so close to me I could almost

were all gathered together again. All
the ships except Warburtons had
landed within a mile of me, safely.
Warburton was considerably cut about
the face, but was not seriously injured.
