Worcester Democrat and the ledger-enterprise. (Pocomoke City, Md.) 1921-1953, 1938-03-04
ELIZABETH BOYKIN

tragedy if it goes out of style.
If you're buying conservative
furniture, better if possible to
get it good enough to be worth
re-upholstering.
Big lamps, big flower bowls,
big pictures, large scale fabrics
are the vogue right now in all
but the smallest, most informal
of rooms.
On the other hand the size of
the furniture should be kept
down somewhat. Have it small
enough to give the room a
chance to look spacious yet large
enough to be comfortable and
usabIe.
Remember that you have
colors that do things for you,
so make the most of them. And
avoid colors that aren't becom-
ing to you-follow this rule in
decorating just as you do in
dressing. Lamp shades with
warm glow are better-beige or
soft rose tones for lining even
when the outside of the shade
is white or another color.
You'd be surprised what
lot of decorating can be done
with cushions.
Here are some of the things
we've seen Miss Snider do with
Worcester Democrat and the ledger-enterprise. (Pocomoke City, Md.) 1921-1953, 1938-03-04
QUESTIONS and ANSWERS

Q. How can I prevent water
from seeping through my cellar
windows?
A. The seepage is most like
ly caused by water coming up
through the bottom of the
areas. This water must be car
ried away, and the best way to
do this is to install concrete
floors in the areas about 8
inches below the window sills
and pipe the water to a dry
well located at least 8 feet
from the house.
@. When wood has once
started to rot can anything be
done to stop it?
A. We know of no positive
means of stopping rot once it
has started. The best remedy
is not only to remove or cut out

MARGUERITE SNYDER has
made a profitable career telling
people how to create beautiful
rooms with the things they al
ready have and without spend
ing a mint of money.
Here are the tips that this
gayly attractive young decorator
passes on to TOWN readers:
Don't buy medium priced fur
niture, she advises. Buy things
that are good enough to keep
forever and aye, to pay to
have repaired and to love and
cherish. Or else buy things
cheap enough to discard or give
away when you can afford
better.
And in assembling furniture,
try to have one piece of furni-
ture that is a real treasure and
place it so that attention is
concentrated on it the effect
will be of a room full of fine
pieces.
Don't skimp on accessories.
Lamps and pictures give tone
and character to the room, so
that you can "trade up" the eff
feet of your old things impor-
family by we'll chosen accessories
or maybe just nice frames,
for the pictures you have will
make all the difference.
If upholstered furniture is
fussy and more or less of a fad,
buy it cheap, so it won't be a

give the inside box an all-over
coat of orange shellac, which
is all the finish it requires.
This box is attached to the
outside box with wooden mount
ing strips, light nails and glue,
A very thin covering strip of
the mahogany (or other con-
trasting woody is then fitted
over the top, flush with the in
side of the inner box. Next
drill three holes vertically
through the mounting strips
and for a trim, insert hollow
copper rivet in each hole.
The two box covers (see pc
ture Az and the bottom are also
easy to make.
Remember to stain the sep
arate pieces before assembling
the outside cover and handle.
The inside cover is all nahog-
any. For moisture, a shallow

under side of the inside cover,

MAKE new TYPE
HUMIDOR
by HAROLD T. BODKIN

ARE YOU one of those men who
are "finicky" about the condi-
ton of your pipe tobacco-or,
do YOU know somebody who is?
If so, you're going to want
to make this attra ctive hunidor
(see picture Az that incorpor-
ates a feature new to humidors.
AS you know, common huml-
doris are usually single-wall-
ed containers equipped with a
sponge to assure moisture to
the tobacco. But, if one forgets
to wet the sponge, outside heat
is conducted to the inside of the
humidor and the contents quick
ly dry out.
The above humidor makes use
of very common principle.
Like a refrigerator, it is box
within a box, the two being
separated by a wall Of dead air.
Dead air resists abrupt
changes in temperature. And
there you are-with two boxes
and an invisible wall of dead
air to protect your pet mixture!
AS illustrated, the outside box
is made of three layers of wood,
glued up first as a panel from
which the box sides are cut.
(See picture c..
The original was made Of
ordinary white pine, stained
maple, a strip of clear pine for
the stripe and a bottom of
mahogany.
OF course, it is best to stain
the different woods before glu-
ing up your original panel. This
will assure clean-cut lines be-
tween the woods. Otherwise, the
stains may run into the stripe
and spoil the inlaid effect.
Now, with flat chisel, you
can mold the top edge of the
panel and cut the rabbet into
the lower edge to replace the
box bottom flush, later. Follow
ing this, carefully saw the four
sides out of the panel on a
mitre, or, As degree angle. The
box sides are then nailed (coun-
tersink heads) and glued to-
gether.
The inside box is made from
quarter-inch thick plywood. (See
picture d. This is a simple af-
fair made with ordinary butted
corners and needs no detailed
reference here. When completed,

the affected part, but also to re-
move the cause Of the affection.
The simplest method is to keep
the wood dry. This requires
that it be kept not only from
contact with soil, but also that
moisture pockets be avoided;
that free circulation Of air be
provided and that surfaces ex-
posed to the weather, damp air,
or condensation be coated with
paint, varnish, or other protec-
tive coatings to reduce absorp-
ton.
