But a, least I can tell other pros
peetive brides and grooms that
this Is not the polite way to say
Thank you" for anything,
Using Doiies In the Living Room
Dear Mrs. Post / read In a re-
cent article your suggestion about
using doilies under lamps and
vases on tables. You suggested
small squares OF Chinese brocades
or very fine needlepoint. Up to
this time. l have been using cro-
cheted pieces which I made my
self. on my tables and on chair
backs. I thought Of making new
ones for this winter, but ! like
the idea OF needlepoint doilies for
under lamps. as my tables are
very good and would hate to
scratch them. VIII you tell me
something about their design
And IL l put needlepoint on the
tables, what would you advise me
10 use in the way OF material for
ohairbaeks to go with them ?
And would small lace and em-
broidered linen centerpieee be suit
able as a between meal dining
room table covert
Answer: ANY little vine or mold
ing design for border with
plain center (which Is covered by
the lampl would be suitable. You
might quite possibly make your
chair and arm backs of the ma
terial with which each chair is
covered. with tiny gimp or very
small matching fringe to go around
il. Or II your room Is at all Vic
torian, embroidery or lace-such
as fillet--looks well. II too white
for your room, you can tint it
eeru or cream or oyster gray. On
the dining room table, the center
piece you suggest would be all
right, or small square of Chinese
brocade. which seemingly looks
well everywhere. At the same
time, I should perhaps add that
in the fashion of today. the center
decoration OF silver or glass or
china or whatever You use on your
dinner table, is left standing on
the otherwise bare table through
out the day.

This high percentage. wages In

A recent survey disclosed that In

wages combined represented 3Sife

some Industries pay roll expense
