THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL.

Christmas week is as good a time
as any for changing the furniture
around
Many persons, men as well as women,
get a great deal of pleasure out of
rearranging the tables and chairs OF
the so-called living quarters.
This is an era of experimentation:
why not introduce the idea now and
then into the living room?
A little planning, a little hauling
and tugging, and the first thing one
knows the old room doesn'-. look bit
natural
Whether it will look better or worse
-ah, that is the fun Of it!
One would not advocate going as
far as the worthy who had a picture
on each side of the frame. so that
when he got tired of looking at his
rooms he merely took the pictures down
and hung them up backwards.
1t is not bad idea, but it probably
puts too much accent on the framed
pictures. With the majority of home
owners these constitute a problem
which many solve by using as few OF
them as possible.
Framed pictures, photographs and
the like may well be left where they
are in such homes; the real work CT
arrangement comes with the fur
niture.
Every household contains at least one
conservative, one liberal, or even radl-
cal, in such things.
The conservative member believes in
letting well enough alone, as he says.
radical rnPr1hPr wants how
the room will look if the sofa Is put
over on the north wall.
The home conservative never will
ingly would move so much as a chair.
Once a piece of furniture is placed, 1t
is placed forever as far as he is con-
cerned.
There are. of course, extremists, in
this as in all things.
The extreme conservative is found
everywhere.
He it is, she it is, who is responsible
for the old homes in which nothing has
been changed in a lifetime. Everything
sits as it sat in the beginning.
And no man dareS change thing
during the lifetime of the owner.
If chair is moved so much as a
quarter of an inch, the conservative
shortly moves 1t back again to just
where it was.
Chairs cause much misunderstanding.
Somebody is going to write great
novel, some day called, simply,
Chairs" and it Will be done with a
truly French clarity and restraint
Just the story of couple of chairs,
how a conservative member OF the
household wanted them faced at one
angle to the windows. and how the
ultra-conservative member wanted them
at a slightly different angle.
There would not be SO much as two
inches. perhaps, between the two plac-
ings, but in the minds of the persons
involved the difference would loom
/ large
Daily the two chairs would be
straightened out to the satisfaction OF
the one, to be altered slightly by the
other.
Resulting mental friction would equal
storm clouds, without SO much as line
showing Then, one day, murder would
/ be done-and no one, not even the in
spector, could find a motive
Only those who understood furniture
well would understand

SHOOTING STARS.
BY PH1LANDER JOHNSON.
HOLIDAY EXampie

Holiday Example.
Old Santa Claus brings out with glee
The reindeer for his sleigh
It's model nineteen thirty-three,
And labeled IN. r. A.
He represents the willing hands
And gentle, loyal heart;
And everybody understands
Old Santa does his part.
Old Santa never fears the storm
That may arise anew
When he is ready to perform
He never skipS cue.
He does not ask a worlds applause
For eloquence or art
Let's take tip from Santa Claus
Who simply does his part.

A Word to the Man Who
Contemplates Marriage
IN the Edt0r az The Star,

To the man contemplating marriage
in these troublous times I would sug-
gest marrying the quiet, home-loving
and intellectual type of woman. The
modern, up-to-date, non-intellectual
tyne cannot be bothered with preparing
a husbands breakfast, lunch or dinner.
You see, this type is usually too busy
with such matters as bridge parties,
dances and sensual diversions, which
she refers to as having a good time"
Even all this cannot ward of boredom
for the up-to-date everyday woman.
The more a wife has in herself the
less she'll want from this so-called
society. This is the reason why a
high degree of intellect tends to make
a rercca appcar unsocial.

Sees Danger in the
Habit of Smoking
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
The letter published in The Star from
Thomas w. Gilmer anent the wave of
cigarette smoking is timely and to the
point. 1t is perhaps only fair to say
that the average woman, girl or boy
who accepts a cigarette for the first
time, just to be "sociable" or smart, as
the case may be, has really no thought
of becoming a tobacco addict, but the
trouble is that it never stops there, and
before they know it or realize it the
habit has taken such a hold of them
that they seem absolutely powerless to
shake it off, even if they wanted to. A
number of methods of breaking off the
habit exist, however. for the benefit of
those who really wish to do so before it
is too late. These should be given
wider circulation than is being done.
The churches could do much, but for
some mysterious reason they are silent.
