Household Hints
Let Your House Match Your Personality
RH MARIAN YOuNG

0y MAAhAhIN 1OOCNN (NEA Service Staff Correspondent
 New York-There's no mystery about interior decoration. Any wo- man can do good job on any room in her house if she will just be her. self-her bravest self.
 These words of encouragement come from William Wright Crandall, prominent industrial designer and interior decoration authority, who has recently been appointed director of industrial design for the Ameri- can School of Design.
 Before you decide on new color scheme or buy single access sary, write memo to yourself, tell ing what kind of person you think you are, what kind of home best suits the needs of you and your fam ily," MT. Crandall explains.
 SUIT DECORATION
 TO MODE OF LIVING
 Buy furniture or curtains as you buy hats-because they please you and your husband, bring out your own best features and, in general, suit your mode of life. You wouldn't buy only afternoon hats when your way of living calls for sports clothes. So why go in for a formal color scheme when you know very well that you live and entertain informal ly most of the timer"
 MT. Crandall lists reseda green, cobalt blue, tobacco brown and cedar as fine informal colors to consider. He puts chartreuse, turquoise, prune and fuchsia into formal category.
 One of this interior designers pet complaints is that altogether too many amateur decorators stop deco rating too soon. Bare rooms, he thinks, are as unattractive as over crowded, cluttered ones.
 "When I see 8 room with walls practically bare, books concealed behind doors, magazines in a rack in the corner behind a chair and nothing on the largest table except small ash tray and a humidor, I shudder. I know immediately that it was decorated by a woman who takes rules too literally, who prob ably never takes enough clothes on trip simply because she read some where that it's smart to travel light
 "So I repeat, get all the expert advice you can about colors, trends and so on, but don't let 1t restrict your own tastes and preferences to the point where your rooms have an unlived-in look"
 MT. Crandall concludes: Be brave about colorS. Dare to hang pictures that you like whether you have seen pictures of similar type on other walls or not
 Don't consider only the legs on chairs or sofas when buying new ones. Look at piece of furniture as a whole-not simply as the part neaerst the floor. If it is comfort able and if you like its lines, get it even though its legs aren't of the same period as the rest of your fur~ niture.
 Put paper on your walls instead of always playing safe and having plain ones. Know that with the proper use of lamps you can decorate wall with shadows. And do keep flowers in your vases whether you understand the so-called art of flower arrangements or not. There's entirely too much elf-consciousness about flowers, about the use of color and about the selection and hanging of pictures
The Waterbury Democrat., 1940-09-25
DIDN'T UPSET
 EATING HABITS

food should be offered again. If the child still refuses to eat, the food must again be quietly removed without comment. Usually by the time the thirr meal is offered the child's hunger is sufficient to over come his Stubborness and he will take some solid food. When chil- dren refuse to eat any food they may be sick and should be carefully watched. They may go 24 to 48 hours or even longer without food if they have plenty of water, and sooner or later hunger will win.

continued. Each time lost a pound I felt 8 year younger. Now, in a size 16 dress, instead of size 20, I feel like a young person rather than a middle-aged one. For the first time in years, enjoy buying clothes"
 NOW ENJOYS
 WALKS AND PARTIES
 She also went on to say that for the first time in years she now en- joys walking, going to parties, danc- ing.
 T am not as tired after a hard days work as I used to be-" the attractive woman continued. And I have more poise because of the self-conhdence I get from knowing that I look well in my clothes. It may be very vain of me, but I feel that I am much prettier."
 She is prettier, too. And her painless method of reducing ought to be interesting to anyone who wants to lose a few pounds, or sev- eral.
 DIDN'T UPSET HABITS
 She didn't upset her faznily's eat ing habits or make nuisance of herself by discussing her diet when she lunched with others. She didn't go on any kind of fad diet, thereby endangering her health.
 She kept right on eating the kind of food she and her family like. Only she ate small-really small portions of everything. including dessert. She never took second, of anything on the menu, and she never ate or drank anything between meals except orange or to- mato juice.
