says House Beautiful. Talk wakes
to brilliance in rooms where there
Is comfort and intimacy, and
wanes to remarks on the weather
and hollow pauSes where there is
no focal point or plan for a room.
A fireplace, for instance, is the
perfect and appropriate center for
a room. But without a fireplace
you may use window as the focal

When you plan your rooms for

If you can manage the placing of

change has taken place in paint
and varniSh making. New devel-
opmentS have been made in the
types of permanent finishes. To
day there is a specific finish for
each purpose. A finish for walls,
another for dwellings, woodwork,
furniture and new finishes for
keeping floors bright and shiny.
Ten years ago, wall finishes
were either glossy or flat. Then
came the development Of the
semi-gloss finish which is easily
washed and kept clean but not
sufficiently glossy to be consid-
cred gaudy by those seeking
dignity and good taste. This
marked quite a step forward in
attractive interior finishes.
White Popular
White has long been a popular
color for interior room treatment
but difficulty was encountered IN
its use. White paint had a ten
dency to become yellowed. In the
the flat finish, dirt was quickly
embedded in the finish, and it was
hard to keep clean.
Today this following has been
almost eliminated. White can
now he had that is a white white
and because of its smooth hard
surface, it is inclined to stay
clean.
Other outstanding improve
ments in the new finishes are
their ability to dry quickly and
their durability. It is possible to
do painting, around the house or
refinishing Of a piece Of furniture
at night. BY morning it is dry.
These finishes also dry harder
than the old paints. Because they
have this hard, tilelike surface
they can be used for a number of
new uses. Certain paints are now
used for the kitchen and bath
room, for refrigerators, iceboxeS,
gas or electrical stoves and kitchen
accessories, as well as for the walls
and ceiling. For the refrigerator,
a modern chipproof finish is on
the market that is particularly
suited for a metal surface.
With the development Of new
pigments, the question Of color
need never be a problem. Instead
Of having only a limited selection
from which to choose. there are
now many tints and shades avail
able. This is Of great advantage

Wn1Ie Cne new furnaces CnaC are
on the market are designed for
economical use of controlled heat,
most dealers in Washington do
approved Of installing burners in
the old furnaces under certain
conditions.
They insist that the furnace be
in good working order and in good
condition.
One concern in the District
stresses the use Of a combustion
chamber.
THIS Is built inside of the old
furnace Of brick and high temper
allure cement. In this way all Of
the heat Is utilized. The cost Of
this installation is included with
the price Of the burner.
Important Facts
After the sale is made, the en-
cheering expert goes into the
home, figures on the size and
radiation Of the old furnace, then
draws off on paper a plan for the
combustion chamber.
This plan is checked carefully.
The plan Is designed for each type
Of furnace so that the greatest
amount Of heat economy is gained.
The bricks, Of course, do hold the
heat.
When the automatic oil burner
IS installed. the burner can be on
for 10 minutes, then turned off
five. The extra five minutes of
free heating is gained by the heat
holding power of the bricks.
There are several types of oil
burners being featured in these
conversion jobs.
They all have several features
in common. It Is important to see
that there are no excess gadgets

The varniSheS have also been
improved. A few years ago, furni.

they came in contact with water.

rarely crack and water has no
effect on them.
In applying varniSh to hardwood
floors and linoleum, a new gadget
on the market makes it possible to
apply this without getting down
on hands and knees to brush it
on. This mop-like spreader applies
it quickly and thoroughly.

year will work harder than ever
in getting legislation through Con-
gress for a new Juvenile Court law,
and for the 40-hour week for
women workers Of the District.
And this mentions but two Of the
many serious interests for women
that the League will seek this year.
The 100 members comprising the
five circles Of the Department Of

The close second to the flatiron
in causing electrical fires is the
flexible cord. If the wires in the
walls have been properly installed
by a capable electrician and have
been inspected, there is not so
much danger from this source, but
when the circuit is extended out
into a room through a flexible
cord there seems to be no limit to
the abuse that a cord can get.
In checking on a cord Of this
type it is important that the in
sulation be Of standard thickness.

to get out of order and that the
oil is burned efficiently.
The oil is atomized in almost all
cases and mixed with air before
being ignited.
Many gadgets are on the market
for regulating the amount of air
and gas that are blended.
One thin mix fuel control blends
the air and oil in proportion of
IS per cent air and per cent
atomized oil. There also is in
cluded gadget to hoard the heat
and see that every bit is focused
into the heating system. The in
stallation is done by trained men
and in many cases a jacket Of as
bestos is advised around the old
furnace and on the heating pipes.
The purpose Of insulating the
pipes and the furnace is to prevent
any loss Of heat in the basement
rooms. However, certain engineers
suggest that special heating ar
rangements should be made in the
basement rooms.
Another installation that has
proved popular is an oil burner
using projected flame. This
also burns very efficiently and Of
terS great convenience.
The question of whether coal or
gas is more economical is de-
batable. It depends on many fact
ors and is problem to be figured
out in each home.
A very neat conversion burner
Is also on the market for using gas.
This can be installed in any
furnace that is Of good design. A
refractory material for increasing
the heat output is included in the
installation so that heating loss is
reduced.
Different Types
The types of oil burners for in
stallation are based on the same
three principles of construction
that were discussed last week.
Certain advantages are claimed
in each case. The pressure oil
burner with low pressure feed is
popular here. The rotary flame
type also has a large following, as
does the pot type or gravity feed.
The selection depends on the size
Of your house and the type Of old
furnace that you have in your
basement.
In the oil burner, the amount
Of oil used is automatically regu-
lated by the size Of the house and
the size of the heating plant.
When the desired temperature is
reached, the heat is turned off.
The Washington times., 1936-10-10

Probably the most common IS
flatiron fires. It is surprising
how often housewives and maids
forget their irons and let them
ignite the ironing boards.
These fires can be avoided by
automatically pulling out the
plug after each use. When the
cord has been disconnected there
is no question about the iron
being off. If the iron is con-
nected to a key or a pullchain
socket, it is easy to make a
mistage and think the iron Is
off when it Is really on.
The Washington times., 1936-10-10

Interest this week centerS on
fire prevention in the home.
During this past week a national
program has been undertaken in
order to present to housewives
the hazards that prevail in GER
tain basement or attic rooms.
The prevention of electrical
fires is also stressed in this
program.
The majority of the electrical
fires result from these three
causes: Tempered fuses, defective
wires dncluding flexible cords)
or overheated flatirons. e.
