WHEN PAINT
MASQUERADES
Stimulating Tile, Wood
And Marble.
ELLEN Yeoman

Increasing in present-day popu-
larity are the initiative finishes
which may be done with paint.
These are often more practical and
inexpensive than the real material
and frequently more in keeping with
the spirit of a room. Marbleizing is
one of the simplest and most effec-
tive of these. 1t is generally used
around a fireplace or for the wood
work, especially in the bathroom. A
piece of real marble is copied for
veining and color. Suppose that or
dinary black and white marble is to
be simulated on wood or plaster.
The surface is properly prepared
and a coat of fiat white paint APP
piled. When this dries, it is sand
papered smooth and a coat of white
paste paint, mixed with three parts
of oil to one of turpentine, is put on.
Before this dries, small ox-hair
pencil is dipped in lampblack
ground in oil and the veins traced in
the wet white paint. These should
approximately initiate the marking
of the marble. Then the black and
white are blended together lightly,
with a badger blender, until the
lines become very faint.
Graining on plaster to obtain the
effect of wood is often suitable

York, on December l and 2, favor
ing practical compensation to far
mers and landowners for game pro-
lection and restoration work as of
vital Importance in saving game
from disappearing, in providing wild
er hunting areas and in preserving
wild life beneficial to agriculture.
But he also urged the establishment
of large game farms supported by
the states, an increase in revenue
to conservation departments and a
closer cooperation between state
and federal agencies.
"It is time to cease riding hobby
horses and pickering over lesser
problems and to get down to large
and practical fundamentals" he de-
clared. Solution of our individual
will have to come by ex-
perience and our wild life is not
waiting"
Though debate on the farmer
proposals resulted,
mainly as to methods to be adopted
and the reaction that might be ex-
Dected from landowners and sports
men, statements from the game men
soon indicated conclusively that
realized the need of |
an immediate move to bring land |
owners into active game work by
giving them share in the game
crop.

Cause OF Hard Times

1t is both amusing and pathetic
to observe what reasons different
groups of interest assign for the
hard times. Many of them naively
but seriously put the whole blame
on those persons or those things to
whom or to which they stand Oppos-
ed.
Democrats have blamed the Re-
publicans and have been blamed by
them. The bakers convention de-
cided the trouble came because peo-
pie do not eat enough bread; anti

used for stenciling to obtain a tile
effect are generally semi-transpar-
ent. Either a tube glazing color or
ordinary house paint which has
been thinned to the consistency of
cream with a glazing liquid is suit
able for stenciling. The stencil is
fastened to the wall with glue siz-
ing and the design pounded through
the cut-outs with a stencil brush
dipped in the paint The brush is
used like a hammer; not stroked
back and forth. When the design
has been filled in, the stencil is pull
led straight away from the wall to
avoid smearing. A stencil pattern
should be chosen that resembles a
tile design and tile colors may be
copied from piece of real tile. The
diversit yof tiles that are manufac-
tured today suggests a wide selec-
tion in color and design. An imita-
tive tile effect is widely used for |
bathrooms and kitchen, as we'll as
throughout the Spanish or Italian
house.

Quick Frozen Poultry

A new method of marketing froz-
en- poultry by preparing it full
drawn has come into considerable
use in the last few years, says the
Bureau of Agricultural Economics,
U. S. Department of Agriculture. AT
ter the poultry is dressed, the head,
feet, and entrails are removed, and
the giblets are cleaned, wrapped in
parchment or waxed paper, and re-
placed. Then the whole carcass is
frozen by a quick process and mar
keted in a frozen state. 1t is
thought that the meat is sweeter
and finer favored than when the en-
trails are not removed; and remov-
al of the inedible parts saves
freight.

where it is more practical to use
plaster than wood for walls. If it is
carefully done, the illusion is per-
feet. The granting is accomplished
by smoothing and sizing the surface
and coating 1t with a ground color
of fiat wall paint. This is generally
buff but may be tinted to match the
wood which is being initiated. When
it has dried, the wall is covered
with a graining combination which
may be selected in the colors of
various wood finishes. While still
wet, the surface is manipulated with
graining comb to initiate the tex
ture of some specific wood. A final
coat of fiat varnish gives the sur
face fiat finish.
Graining on wood in imitation of
other wood is employed when it is
necessary to match up different
woods or when it is desired to make
an inexpensive wood look like an
expensive kind. The surface is fin
ished in the ordinary way with two
coats of fiat paint. Then the liquid
color is applied. If the finish is to
be vanished or shellacked, vinegar
is often used as the liquid. Other
wise, any semi-transparent color !
may be mived with the stain, such
as raw or burnt umber, sienna or
chrome green. While the stain coat,I

what should Z bid? How should he
analyze the bids of A and W How
could A bid two spades and Y bid two
no trumps, if both were bidding sound
ly? His own holding in spades really
made rs problem fairly easy. 1t was a
certainty that A could not have a spade
bid for, if he did, Y could not possibly
bid two no trumps. Such bid should
indicate at least one stopper in spades
and that stopper could only be three
or four spades to the king. AS two

bid, made to induce Y Z to bid two no
trumps and thus give A a chance to
make a set-up club suit. Z correctly
figured this out and decided that his
best chance for game lay in the spade
bid, particularly if his partner should
hold four spades to the king. z, there

clubs, thus verifying rs deductions.

spades and thus won a rubber tina:
2ny would have lost. If Z had noe

liking a bluff bid, he would have
yed the hand at no trump and thus

l. i fine example of "calling til,

The bidding in Contract would have
been exactly the same.
All Bridge players of any experience
know perfectly well that it is wiser to
play hand with a sound suit as
trumps than with no trumps = un-
less, to be sure, the no trumper is
fawless and with no hole in it. Some
hands, of course, do happen to work
out better in no trumps, but these
are the exception; anyhow, | think
there is no real argument as to which
is the better proposition = trumps or
no trumps. 1t is, therefore, a strange
business that these self-same players
will be seen time after time taking out
a suit into no trumps under the
smallest provocation. As often as not
declarers do this simply to enjoy the
fun of playing TIE combined hands
with these | have no
quarrel = they are there to get what
fun they may out of the game, but not
the best results; and as that is their
point of view about Bridge, why worry?
With the rest | do find fault - in
fact, Ecannot understand their point
of view at all, for they are not selfish,
and they do want to get the best re-
suits; yet, knowing full well, as in their
heart of hearts they must, that they
are playing against their own interests,
they still will bid - yes, and re-bid =
their no trumps against l.ai tnsiO suits.
