GAY COLORS, PATTERNED WALLS

Animals and Scenes From Books Declared More

In furnishing a nursery. adults must

If you are remodeling the nursery as

should be decorated in such manner
that the decorations are readily under
stood and appreciated by the small oc-
cupant of the room.
Colors should be gay and bright
not a riot of color. but clear. primary
colors used sparingly. Subtle and un-
usual colors should be reserved for the
adult, who appreciates more readily
skillful gradations and variations of col
oring.
