Plans for Making Small
Dining Room Appear Larger
BY WILLIAM X: CLARKE

THIS BUSINESS of camou-
flaging a small room TO look
twice its size is as varied and
many.sided as the facets of a
well-cut diamond.
There is, for example, the
compact dining rooms so preva-
lent in houses and apartments
today. Too large for a dinette
suite and still much too small
for a full size dining room group,
its decoration is frequently a
thorn in the side of the home
maker.

matted floral print above each.
Put nothing on the window
