"DEAR MRS. SPEARS: have
- a pair Of lamps for my
dressing table, and I would like to
use some Of my curtain material
to cover plain shades. Can you
tell me how this is done? C. H."
Here is a method that is shown
for a living room lamp in Book I.
It may be used for a shade of
any size. You will need the top
and bottom rings from an old
lamp shade. A cardboard founda-
ton is cut to fit these, and the
chintz or other fabric is pasted to
the edge of this.
The ABB line in the pattern dia-
gram is as long as the diameter
Of the bottom ring. The dotted
vertical line is approximately as
long as the depth of the shade.
The CD line is as long as the
diameter Of the top ring. Draw
the diagonal lines to touch the
ends of the ABB and CD lines.
Place a tack where they meet at
E. Place a pencil through a loop
in q string, as shown, and draw
the bottom line Of the shade max
ing it as long as the measurement
around the bottom ring plus a
half inch. Shorten the string and
draw the top to fit the top ring
allowing for a half inch lap.

is in d position to be in close

Lighter materials, produced
largely through pioneering in the
aviation field, permit reduction in
the weight of vehicles, yet increase
power output, Bohn declares.
AS a net result of these improve

greater output due to the fact that
compressions will be lighter, re-

important will be the direct i'm

With all Of these factors Of de-
