with or without shelves on either

ROOMS SIZE is
FURNITURE KEY
Large Space Should Take
Large Furnishings to
Give Coy Effect.

Is your living room generous in
size? Then you have problem in
the selection and arrangement of
furnishings quite different from
that presented by the small living
room. Since the effect of spa
ciousness is assured, there is no
point in trying to make the room
seem bigger than it really is.
Your real problem is to make the
room intimate and liVable, and to
avoid the appearance Of stiffness
and lack of hospitality which large
rooms oftentimes reveal if the
homemaker has failed to appreciate
the Importance Of unity and bal
anCe.
Haphazardly chosen furniture,
carelessly placed, tends to produce
in a large room the impression that
the room is falling apart" Skill
full harmonizing of the design and
color of each piece, aided by COR
rect grouping, will overcome this,
and result in a room that takes full
advantage of its liberal area, yet is
friendly, inviting and comfortable.

Exciting Shades Put Into
Play as Winter Is
Nearing.

There can be no f1nality about
any report on the fall fabric situa
ton. Say honestly that the great
part of the new lines consists of
smooth, shiny, elegant stuffS, and it
may be concluded that rough-teX-
tured materials will be out. Which
is no rue. Or say that the designs
are bigger and wider spaced (and
most OF them are) and you're being
unfair to the small, perky styled
designs which have so much zip.
The whole story is that anything
goes-lush velvets, virile, tweedy
woods; both sleek and rough mo-
hairs. crisp chintzes, taffetas. satins,
CottonS and all manner of quilted
materials. Don't think, though.
from this, that what you had last
year Will do for another season,

Colors are the give-away. They
are completely new and exciting and

CLOSET IS AID TO
ACCENT IN HOUSE
Papering of Room Will
Offset Color Scheme.

A smart treatment for a closet is
to paper it in the dark shade used
for accent in the room to which it
belongs.
A room predominantly coral, with
touches Of black and white, had a
closet papered in a white-doted
black paper. 1t was fitted with
black-initialed white boxes. A vel
low room with brown furniture
boosted a closet papered in brown,
finely patterned with yellow. The
closet fittings and the inside of the
closet door were painted yellow.

Stores Show Variety of
Effects Now Favored
in u. S.

Mexico-the land Of bright col
ors, bull fighters, senoritas and ia
maIes-has now crashed the china
and hostess departments Of the
downtown stores.
Mexican pottery, glasses and straw
holders, both manufactured in the
country itself or with a Mexican in
fUence and bearing a Made in the
Z. S. A" label. are favorites right
now for informal entertaining.
A clever idea for a Mexican table
is set up with a bright scarf Of
many colors tablecloth, and using
copper serving plates, wooden salad
plates and bright orange cream soup
dishes in glazed pottery.
A toy toreador takes the center
of the ring. fenced in for the cen
terpiece with a toy bull. Outside
the ring dance crepe paper senori-
tas. Further decorations are painted
gourds in purple, red ard yellow.
Miniature trains, planes, ships and
automobiles all connected with a
table-sized world globe make an at
tractive and colorful centerpiece for
the bon voyage party.
A table set in the spirit Of the
fall harvest features small sheafS Of
wheat dyed yellow and orange,
clustered with purple grapes, tiny
lemons and smaller oranges.
A white plate forms the base of
the table service, with a smaller
orange plate holding a yellow cream
soup. Glassware is clear crystal IN
the gunmetal shade.
Salad mixes we'll and tastes bet
ter in a huge decorated wooden
bowl. In the bottom, a weeping
onion lass holds hands with her
bright red tomato boy friend. Both
figures have been burned into the
wood and painted. The bowl is al
cohol, vinegar and hot water re-
sistant. To serve the salad there
are sets of wooden forks and spoons.
Having a cocktail party? Don't
miss the amusing canape bird dis
played at downtown stores. They
look like porcupines with colored
toothpicks stuck in their side
which, after the hostess is finished
with them, should hold tidbits for
the appetite.

STUDIO COUCH POPULAR
Pull Back Rail and You Have Full
Size or Twin Beds.

One of the smartest and yet most
practicab of the new studio couches
deries its name from the ease by
which it may be operated. There
is nothing to lift-nothing to bend
over and pull out from under; in
fact, you merely pull the back rail
lightly toward you and the couch
slides forward. With this gesture,
you have available either a full size
bed or two twin size beds as desired.

The new small pieces Of furniture
solve the gift problem for any new
lyweds in the family. They arc sure
to appreciate an ottoman. tea Ia

racks and smoking stands. All Of
them welcome to the couple fur

AS in the case of other invest

COLORS
POPULAR FOR
DINING ROOMS
Comfortable Chairs Are Aid
To Digestion, Say
Doctors.

Is the time near at hand when We
shall speak Of the dear, departed
dining room? Not much, say home
lovers and furniture dealers, in one
loud chorus. For one thing, there
are too many grand pieces Of din
ing room furniture to buy.
For another, entertaining at home
is on the increase and gathering
round the groaning board is the
favorite American way of entertain
ing.
Dinette suites, representing the
latest development in dining room
furniture, are this fall of such style
color and price as to delight the SOU
of every woman. Light colors, gay
upholstery, new and different woods
in pleasing combinations, give new
incentive to decorating the dining
room.
Good for Digestion
Since the family uses the room SO
little, at best but about an hour and
a half day, it is all the more i'm
portant to have it as attractive as
possible. And then the doctors have
something to say about eating n
pleasant surroundings.
Bone white, up and coming sew
eral seasons ago, is now the leader
in the field. One suite has bright
blue leather on the chairs. Another
has a fabric in the increasingly
popular coral. Who would not hurry
home to dinner in a room so de-
lightfully furnished?
Comfort is the word In dining
room furniture. Chairs are the
right height for that upright but re-
Taxed sitting posture the doctors are
always raving about. Upholstered
settees increase the comfort.
Besides modern styles, Early
American and the lighter period de-
signs are reproduced for use in the
dinette. The simple charm Of Early
American seems especially suited to
the small dining room.
In the big dining room magma
ton can go the limit in selecting
furniture and decorations. Here we
see the tempo again. Furniture
made of striking combinations OF
exotic woods, streamline Bullets and
chairs of greatest possible comfort.
Period Styles Popular
The heavy period styles, the tudor
oak. William and Mary, and Queen
Anne have always been popular for
the large dining room. These re-
quire the traditional heavy hang
ings, lush carpets and dark walls.
For those who banker after period
reproductions, but don't care to take
them so heavy, there are the eX-
quisite Chippendale, Hepplewhite
and Sheraton reproductions. These
artists seemed to take special JOY in
making pieces for the dining room.
Careful reproductions and thought
full adaptations are now available
for everyone.
The large dining room also per-
mits of the tea table group-table
and armchair beside the fireplace or
near a window.
For those who just won't have a
dining room there are the dining
pieces which are made to use IN the
living room. The corner cupboard
harbors the dishes and silver. A
chest of drawers accommodates the
