have the double e-decker bunks. If DOS
sible, because your sons will not only
prefer them, but they make the room
larger for them to play in. Add ships
lights and clock, plus bright-colored
cretonne curtains and pillows. and you
will have made hit with your son.
In a bar also use the maple furni-
ture, and have the center light a ships
wheel suspended from the ceiling,
with three or four small white ships
lights standing upright on the rim
of the wheel for illumination. This
attractive arrangement I saw recently
at a gun club on a nearby river. Buff
colored paper with just a few touches
OF red gives you an opportunity to
use any gay-colored materials for
decoration that you wish.
Some of the other jaunty nautical
patterns in wall papers were inspired
from the annual regatta held at
Marblehead, the world-famous yacht
ing center on the rugged coast OF
Massachusetts. One has background
of shades of gray to denote the sky
and water, with trim sail boats of
bright red gliding along. with red sea
gulls hovering about. This design
may also be had in a lovely shade
Of green with the figures In white.
Another unusual and well-named
paper is Venetian Waters" 1t has
q soft green background. with large
golden moon shedding its light across
the canal waters, in the path of the
gondolas. as they ply their way be-
tween the bright-colored, striped
poles.
ONE of the most adorable nursery
papers that I have ever seen isN
called Fluffy" I don't believe there
is a child IN the world who wouldn't
love to look at the many little white or
spotted dogs, looking over little white
picket fences surrounding old-fash-
ioned gardens. bright with flowers.
Maybe your child would prefer little
birds. If so, decorate his room with
a paper having a light eggshe1l back
ground, with a design Of two little
birds outlined in green on a branch
laden with red cherries. The birds
are delightfully."- done, being dressed
In checked coats and plain green
vests.
The terra-cotta papers with pale
gray designs are attractive, as are
those with the deep blue backgrounds.
but they need to be IN q large room
with furniture that is in keeping
With this type of paper, have the
woodwork painted an oyster white.
When looking for wall papers for
the different rooms of your home be
sure to look at the panels that are
very handsome and come in the most
beautiful colors as we'll as striking de-
signs. They are bought in sets of
five with an extra panel II necessary
that will fit between any Of the other
panels One reason that so many
people like this arrangement is be-
cause each panel has different
scene. where in the regular roll paper
the scenes are duplicated.
There are several makes of paper
on the market that are washable,
ideal for children's rooms, bath rooms
and also in the kitchen and pantry
After you have papered several of
your rooms. you may feel that the
others are little dun looking, al
though the paper is in good condi-
ton; If this is SO. don't be discour-
aged! There is an excellent cleaner
on the market that will make your
old paper look almost as good as new.
You will be surprised to find how the
colors will sparkle again and give the
room that clean fresh look for which
we are always striving.
