THIS certainly Is a gem Of a season, judging
by the Importance Of jewelry to the current
II mode. There is scarcely a costume, either
for day or evening wear that does not demand its
own special type of jewelry. For daytime wear
jewelry is divided into pieces developed for formal
wear. In the latter class there are some interesting
novelties made Of leather, wood and dull metals.
Glass jewelry in all sorts Of fascinating colors and
shapes, adds its glitter to the mode.
For the more formal events there is a host Of
intriguing pieces to charm us. Clips emerge as

HOME SHOULD Be
DECORATED FOR
SUMMER TIME

When April comes to Southern
California, we begin thinking of
summer time, summer homes, and
summer vacations. If our summer
ONE is to be in Imperial Valley, it
is even more essential to think of
redecorating its interiors to meet
changed living conditions which the
season brings.
Light airy curtains, and cool
cheerful colors used throughout the
house whether in walls, slip covers
or china, do much toward keeping
cur spirits cool. 1t is quite unneces-
sary to live all summer with the
browns and oranges which we love
so in winter. Each season has its
colors given to it by nature, and
we have become so accustomed to
;.ssociating those colors with these
seasons, that Immediately upon com
ing into a room, which has cool
greens, blues and lavenders used in
its decoration, we think of summer,
end sense of appropriateness fills
our minds. Whereas, if we enter q
room in summer which has a great
deal of upholstered furniture, rugs
and side curtains, we think of a glow
ing on the hearth, and become much
warmer. Therefore, it is essential
for our nerves and dispositions to
10 some rearranging of our furnish
ings.
The material which goes into the
decorations of our summer homes
need not be expensive, but should
he washable. Some of the prints will
be found most appropriate for cur
tains, and table covers, but are not
heavy enough for slip covers. The
glazed chintZes will be more durable
for these. If our budget permits we
ray carry our summer decorations
farther and purchase some of the
coiorful china. There is good looking
ware to be had for such a low price
that the most modest budget could
afford at least breakfast set.
In redecora.i,.g she living room
for summer the open fireplace often
presents a most difficult problem.
This may be overcome by making
either an embroidered or stenciled
fire screen to conceal the fire open
ing. The mantel shelf may be used
during this period as a shelf for
flowers.
