Different C0I0rs on Walls

place. one end may be made a setting
for some special piece Of furniture,
such as large sofa. Sometimes a
wall with double windows and draperies
may be featured by painting it shade
darker. These variations from the
usual style of room painting are often
not noticeable at first glance, but,
nevertheless. subtly enhance the deco
rative effect of a room.
Painting the wall of a bed room
against which the bed Is placed is an
other interesting decorative plan. In
smart New York suburban home the
master bed room has this wall rose
tinted, with the others light yellow.
The yellow and white bedspread is in
effective harmony with the rose-gold
walls against which it is placed, as are,
in turn, the rose-tinted curtains
against the yellow walls.
Alcove Treatment.
The shallow recess or alcove often
provided in bed rooms affords a chance
for variations of the wall color. Some
times these alcoves are made while re-
conditioning an old house. This was
done in one of the huge rooms of a
Victorian brownstone dwelling, in the
new fashionable upper East Side. Clos
cts were badly needed, so one was con-
structed in each Of the two corners Of
one side of bedroom. The space be-
tween them provided decorative set
ting for the head of bed, recalling the
charming alcoves found in French in
teriors.
Upstairs rooms with walls that are
broken by slanting roofs or dormer
windows often lose their ungainly air
when camouflaged by varying the color
on the walls. The sides of the dormer
window space, for example. may be
painted slightly darker shade. When
furnished with a desk and books, or a
bed, this part becomes not handicap,
but unified and charming addition to
the decorative scheme.

FUEL WASTE CITED

For a number of years owners Of
industrial plants have known that
an uncovered steam pipe or boiler
means dollars wasted in fuel bills.
The same method Of insulation used
in such large plants is needed in the
home. for an uncovered furnace in
the cellar with unprotected pipes
leading from 1t will mean Just the
same percentage Of waste as would
occur in giant foundry or coke fur
mace. Insulation used for such pur-
poses is easy and economical to ap-
ply and is just as important in hav-
ing an effective heating system. .,

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. November 3.-Paint-
ing the walls of room different COL
ors seems as revolutionary as French
Designer Paul Poiret's notion that
each one of pair of women's stock
ings should be in a different tint. Yet
varied treatment of the walls of a
room was practiced even in Colonial
times. for antiquarians report that
the hearth end of an interior was
frequently paneled in the mellow
brown of pine, left natural or painted
dull red to suggest mahogany. while
the other three walls were plaster,
painted white, buff or light blue.
Recently New York decorators have
been creating gracious, pleasing ef-
fects by slight or even decided vari-
ations in the wall treatment. A bed
room. for example, was seen the other
day with three walls in Spring green
and the fourth, background for the
dressing table. in yellowish green or
chartreuse. The decorators idea was,
of course, to emphasize the dressing
table. just as the fireplace was en-
phasized in early days. Sometimes. 1"
he said. I'VE paint walls differently in
order to stimulate the effect which
sunlight might produce in certain
parts Of the room."
Different Effect.
In an attractive room on display
in New York shop, the wall farthest
away from the windows is yellowish
cream, with the others painted a
slightly darker, brownish hue known
as cafe au lait-the coffee-and- cream
color of the French. Thus, the side
which would have been darkest in the
daytime was made to appear Just as
well lighted as the rest Of the room.
The whole provided a harmonious
background for the mahogany fur
niture, the brown, red and blue ORR
entail rug and the curtain and up
holstery fabrics in tone of deep brown,
rich blue and red.
Varying the hue of the fireplace
wall is especially desirable when the
fireplace opening is small or the
mantel not highly decorative in itself.
Whether paneled or plain, it is often

The members Of this industry are
buyers of the services represented in
the administration of the construc-
ton code, which thus represents an
adverse interest. The telegram to
President Roosevelt and accompany

administration ask that the separate
code be granted in the interests both
OF the consuming public and the in

Silver Kills Germs.

Water is sterilized, given germicidal
power, through a recent process by
which minute quantities of silver are
electrically dissolved in it. Tasteless,
odorless, consuming little power, the
process is said to be applicable to mu-
nicipal, industrial use, swimming pools
and treatment of fruit juices.

TREATED AIR USED
More and More Systems Are
Being Installed.

"Air conditioning will play an i'm
portant part in the recovery move
ment. Theaters we're the first to in
stall this system, which resulted in
the retaining of business in the Sum-
mer. Newly constructed banks and
Office buildings have been equipped
with air conditioning. Restaurants
have installed this system to a very
great advantage. In the past few
years air conditioning has been in
stalled in the modern home. Columbia
University's new library has air con-
ditioned its shelves for the preservation
of the books. This improvement may
revolutionize our future industry and
take the place of the automobile or
radio industry in bringing about re-
covery. From talk by H. r. Hough-

Basketball.

Now that there is only one day left
before the basketball season opens
officially, some of you have begun to
wonder about the outcome of the
teams efforts. In the Askov lineup
there are four lettermen from last sea-
son. This would seem to give them
slight edge in the game Friday.
Coach Sails has been drilling the team
for well over month and the results
are very promising. Considering the
material, experience, and preliminary
practices, Askov should cut an excel
lent figure in the district champion
ship race. Remember the team last
year and the years before? They
were every inch as good as any high
school team in the district but for
some reason they didn't make the
grade. My guess is that they didn't
have the support of their fellow stu
dents necessary to make a champion
team. We have come to regard the
basketball team as an institution en-
tirely aside from the school. We for
get that the school is judged, in a
large part, by the impression it makes
in public demonstrations such as this.
If the team presents an unsportsman-
like attitude on the floor it is only
reasonable to believe that such an i'm
preston should stick for the entire
school. Remember that whether it
be basketball, kittenball, or declama-
tory teams, they represent yours and
my character. l take it for granted
that every one of you would like, to see
the team win, but without 1000 sup
port from their fellow students they
are sunk. Let's get behind the team
support.
Assemblies.
The program Wednesday, Nov. 25,
was short but very interesting. Mr..
Glenn was the sole entertainer
In short speech he explained. how
music could touch the heart string of
people. He then seated himself at the
piano and played two beautiful CLASH
cal selections, which were very much
appreciated by everyone.
during the elgntn PERIOD, the CHRIST
mas spirit began to seep in when some
of the old Christmas and other ia
vorite songs were renewed.
The Old Gym.
Most of the settlers of AskOv,
are people of Danish extraction. They
have the characteristics of this ma
tionality. One trait is the. fondness
for physical training. The Askov
school was built at two different
times, but it did not occur to the
people to have a gymnasium built.

Honeymoon.
But whatever politics, militarism.
big-navy talk, assassinations and
coups detat may mean to the rest of
the world, it still loves a lover, in
this case especially the duke of Kent.
youngest son of King George and
Queen Mary of Great Britain, and his
bride, Duchess Marina of Kent, for
merly princess of Greece. A week
ago today they were married at West
minister Abbey, London, with all the
pomp and circumstance surrounding
such events in tradition-loving old
England, and now the young couple
is about to depart on a honeymoon
trip to southern Europe, North Africa
and India.
They, at least, seem unworried
about the ups and downs of the world.

and pots and pans adorned the walls.
1t was then known as the cooking
room. Later it was converted into
high school assembly, and was the
scene of programs, declarations, and
singing. 1t was finally considered UNI
fit for this, and it is now being used
as a gymnasium. 1t is hoped that the
third time an addition is made to the
