Demand Heavier Than Ever,
Says Manager of
Furniture Unit.

The trend toward modern furni-
ture, especially in living room and
dining room suites, is stronger than
ever" stated S. K. Prutzman, Sears
Roebuck furniture department
manager, as he pointed out special
attractions for National Furniture
Week. Even the occasional pieces
built lower to conform to this trend,
are selling we'll Since 1929, when
Sears Roebuck established the In
dianapols store, a larger selection
of higher quality and better style
furniture has been constantly added
to meet the needs of discriminating
furniture buyers of Indiana.
Two-thirds of the floor space on
the second floor now is devoted to
house furnishings.
So, it looks as if whatever is pur-
chased for the house, the modern
trend certainly must be considered.
There is, Of course, a modified mod
ern which might well fit into in
teriors Of any period. One out
standing suite of this type has a
wool frieze covering in gold, blue,
wine or beige with extra wool cush-
ions on the arms of both davenport
and chair. Doesn't it sound COM
Portable? 1t should be because it's
made with the Nachman multi
spring construction in cushions,
scat and back. Then, for the smart
touch, there is an attractive chrom-
ium base trimming.
Typical of the wide range of
stock, is the vast selection of maple
furniture so popular at Sears-Roe-
buck. They carry many Cushman
pieces which are reproductions of
genuine antiques and museum
pieces. Many of them carry ex-
planatory tags which relate the his
tory and period Of design.
Richard o. Evans, Sears mer-
chandise manager, is member of
the executive committee making
plans for National Furniture Week.

Inventory Time

Just as a business firm
checks over its stock on hand
periodically, so you should 90
through your rooms and check
the furnishings from time to
time. Scan each piece. not as a
familiar friend. but as an as
set or a liability in that par
ticular room.
See how well your essential
groups are provided for, how
efficient. how comfortable. how
Well-balanCed your present
furniture really is. Perhaps
you will learn that you have
not quite enough of certain
pieces; or too many Of GER
tain others. Perhaps several
rugs, chairs or lamps have out
lived their usefulness.
You will find a number of
pieces that are exactly right.
Start with them as a founda-
ton TO build true charm in
your home.

LAMPS SIMPLIFIED,
HOME EXPERT FINDS
Lines Must Be Simple, ColOrs Har-
monte With Surroundings.

The modern influence in homes
is nowhere more apparent than in
the lamps and lighting fixtures, says
Elizabeth Otey in Good Housekeep-
ing. They have undergone a trans
formation and are greatly simpli-
fled. Lamps are no longer disguised
as something which they are not.
To be sure, there is no specified
shape for lamp, but its lines must
be simple and clear. and the colors
must harmonic with those of its
surroundings. But above all, lamps
are for the purpose of giving light.
In addition TO lamps, many present.
day rooms have indirect lighting
system.

Color Mania

The year 1885 should be set
apart by historians of decora-

color, says House Beautiful.
Wall papers. logically, take a
large part in this mania for
color. Designs, though they
are many and good, are sec
ondary to color. Designs are
often small or delicate in con-
ception. Frequently they are
tinged with silver, which makes
them almost ethereal. FIRE.

Many fabrics are copied
from old designs. So, too, the

bellies. Some of them realis-
tic, some Of them sensitively
styled.

C.TRUCK TRAFFIC
CHANGE IS PROPOSED
Nolen Says High Level Span a,
Chain Bridge Site Would
Help.

Heavy truck trafic would not be
routed through Washington's resi-
dental section If the Chain Bridge
is replaced by q high level bridge,
but would be routed around the resi-
dental areas, John Nolen, jr., direc-
tor of planning of the National Capt.
tai Park and Planning Commission,
said today.
The planning expert declared in q
statement that under the commits
sion's program for a high level bridge,
trucks would be routed beyond Silver
Spring. Md, outside the suburban
area. along the B. & o. freight
tracks and then by way Of Conduit
road to the high level bridge. Auto
mobile traffic, ON the other hand,
would travel along the alternative
route by way of Ellicott City, Md,
Silver Spring and Western avenue to
the high level bridge.
Nolen declared bridge at Great
Falls would be Of little service to
Washingtonians desiring to travel
north and south because 1t Is too far
out. The bridge at Great Falls has
been proposed as an alternative route
/, as q bypass around Washington
trafhc. He pointed out that Wash
ingtonians utilizing the Western ave-
nue. route would not have to come
down town to go to Baltimore as they
now have to do. An alternative route
!, utilizing the Great Falls route,
would be much longer than the West
ern avenue proposal and would in
volve q great deal Of construction
