BY LAWRENCE CROLIuS.

The colored or wood grained ma
terial which you see in almost uni
Versal use on restaurant or drug store
counter or table tops is now available
for numerous applications in the
home.
The material itself is very interest
ing as it is an outgrowth of the ma
terial that radio enthusiasts used, for
radio set panels, and was originally
invented for use as substitute for
mica insulation. With the trend
away from home built radios and
general change in set design, the
various manufacturers were forced to
turn to other fields to apply their
products. They found ready mar
ket in the decorative surface business
as there had been a definite need for
a covering which would be imperviolls
to chemicals as well as intense heat.
These laminated bakelite materials
are made of numerous layers Of resin
impregnated sheets of paper or cloth
pressed together at great pressure
and high temperature, the resulting
composition having a hard, smooth
surface which is not affected by al
cohol or burning cigarettes.
AS any design which is present on
the top layer of paper will be main
tained even after the pressing process
is completed, it is simple matter to
reproduce wood grains that will rival
the original forest product. 1t is also
possible to press designs of aluminium
or other colored materials into the
surface of the substance. thus OPEN
ing an unlimited field Of decoration.
There is a wide range Of colors
available, and the surface may be
attained in either satin or highly
polished finish. 1t may be applied in
sheet form to almost any fiat surface
by using a special cement supplied by
the manufacturer, or obtained already
bonded TO either plywood or metal
backing.
Bath room walls made of this ma
terial are particularly attractive, as
various color schemes can be used,
fish and marine vegetation designs
worked out on the surface as well as
many other designs in the modern
manner. Combined with these deco
rative possibilities are the advantages
of being easily cleaned and completely
waterproof.
In the kitchen the home mod
ernizer will find the material ideal for
wainscoating and kitchen cabinet tops.
Pantry and sink shelves may be COW
cred with the sheet material, or the
built-up product used to replace your
present fixtures.
Some of the most modern houses
are now featuring laminated bake
lite basing and mop-boards. The
material is resistant to alkahnes in
cleaning solutions and will give long
service without injury to the finish.

To Have Own Post Office.
The Scouts will have their own
post off1ce, through an arrangement
with the Post Once Department. This
will be one Of the permanent Struc-
lures to be built by the committee
and will be located at the Virginia
end of the Fourteenth street bridge
This post office will handle all in
coming and outgoing mail for the
Scouts.
The committee decided to defer de-
cision on whether the Scouts will be
allowed to swim in the Tidal Basin.
This subject has been under discus
sion for some time and the committee
announced that further talks on the
subject will be held with C. Marshall
Finnan, superintendent of the Ma
tional Capital Parks. Swimming fa-
cilities for the Scouts has, SO far, been
a stumbling block in the plans, it was
said.
Guarding against the possibility that
camp facilities might be prepared for
$4,000 Scouts and only half that num-
ber show up, the committee has de-
cided to start construction on May
