Laundry
 Eliminates Woshdoys

The. Washday Blues will be as out of date as zither when apart ment dwellers begin to enjoy the planned laundries now being de- signed by manufacturers of elec- trical appliances.
 The laundries, of course, will be equipped with automatic washers and differs with built-in coin meters All the homemaker will have to do will be to place the clothes in the proper receptacle, deposit coin and wait for the machine to do the work. Comfortable chairs and writ ing desks will be provided for re- taxation and shopping list prepara- ton.
 Planned laundries will be in stalled without expense to the apartment building owner. In ex- change for the space, the operator of the laundry will install the equipment, provide furnishings and lighting and keep the equipment in good running condition.
 To make them even more attrac- tive, many planned laundries un- doubtedly will be finished with modern wall and ceiling building materials, such as asbestos cement board, which will resist severe mois- ture conditions and clean easily.

Frame Construction Has Utility Value

A One-Story home, neat and com pact yet spacious enough to house medium sized family comfortably is the dream of many potential builders. An attractive dwelling an- sWering that description, and design ed to save on hard-to-get lumber has come from the drawing board of a Texas architect.
 This home is simple in design yet appealing to the eye Despite its three bedrooms, lar5e living room and ample kitchen, it requires a frontage of only a little more than 40 feet. Each bedroom has windows to admit sunlight from two sides. The living room has a real fire place
 The house is of frame construc- ton, with the exterior finished with asbestos cement sidings Besides reducing the amount of lumber needed, the asbestos sid ings keep down maintenance costs. They are resistant to rot and weather and will never need any preservative treatment. Since
 asbestos cement sidings cannot
 burn, they help protect the home
 from wind-borne fire hazards.
 The convenience of this asbestos clad residence arises largely iron it's grouping of the three bedrooms Two are located at the front of tht house and the third at the rear

)ne-F Family Home Appeals to Majority of Planners
Bring Wrought Iron Furniture Inside

Metal furniture, long associated with the terrace and porch, comes indoors these days to serve a dou- ble purpose. Due to it's lack of bulk decorators find it a happy sugges- tion for the small homes, particular ly in breakfast hooks or double pur- pose living rooms.
 Veterans wives who choose wrought iron furniture with glass table top and upholstered seat chair seats for their crowded and renovat- ed barracks apartments can relax in pleasant anticipation of the fu- ture. These sets are ideal for use later on the porches, back lawns or sunrooms of their permanent homes. The furniture is sturdy enough to make this long range planning prac- ticdl.
 In one home, a decorator has contrived small corner by means of wrought iron furniture on long mirror to catch every bit of light. Since the corner is dark, this use of glass top table and lacy iron chairs gives a fresh and glowing charm to this corner of the small apartment home.
 Iron furniture is right, too in the more spacious home. It com- pines well with pieces of modern inspiration, and in one home, it was placed in living and dining room combination with an upholstered sofa in brightly colored stripes and very modern glass coffee table The one window in the room was fitted with glass shelves of trailing ivy, so that the general effect was one of cool gaiety.
 Iron furniture is now in the stores and is available with small round center table, or a long oblong one finished in white or with the popu- lar greenish-blue tone that blends so well with garden greenery and lush, dark earth. Rust proof, it is easy to keep fresh by wiping with a lightly oiled cloth Growing plants set into the table stretcher give a new decorative turn to the use of this furniture indoors.

Summertime Closet Plan

Stripping the rooms, substituting colors and fabrics more in harmony with Summers breezy airs is an old story to most practised house. holders. To get the best of over stuffed closets so they don't raise ones temperature every time a door is opened is an altogether different natter Ruthless packing away in moth-proof boxes and containers of every single thing that isn't needed is a tiresome chore but it does add space to bedroom closets.
 A few extra yards of the material used for your Summer bedspreads can be handsomely utilized to line your closet walls and shelves. Care fully measured and sewn to light muslin or theatrical gauge backing they are simply installed on closet walls by taeking from the top, along the sides and a baSeboard witt small colored pin-tacks.
 A simpler treatment is to use wide bandings of your bedroom chintz quilted and edged in a contrasting color if possible-on shelf edges, hal boxes and lingerie cases which res on the shelves.
 Various of the new, thin plastic fabrics lend themselves beautifully

Folding Doors Add Much Space

The most difficult door problem likely to face the home planner occurs when a door is necessary and yet there is not enough space in which one may operate.
 One solution to this problem which conforms to modern space saving requirements is the accor- dion-type metal frames providing durable foundation to which fabrics may be attached and at the same time permit a. wide choice of mate rials for the interior decorating scheme.
 In remodelling homes it is ire quently possible to install accordion type doors where there is not sui fcient space for the swing area re- quired by the regular type door.

to both bedroom and closet decora- tive effects. One recently seen pale grey with snowflake motifs of encrusted silver-is available by the yard. Lush, full window curtains draped and fiounced to the hines, could easily be turned out on ones sewing machine.

Painting Over Window Glass

To paint over window glass, as is sometimes desirable when the glare of light in a room is too strong paint vehicle should be used which has a good adhesive quality and elasticity. A thin paint coating reduced with turpentine should be used. Make sure that the glass is perfectly clean before paint ing 1t and, as a final precaution, wipe over the glass with denatured alcohol to remove any fngerprints or other greasy marks.

POLISHING TIP

It is good idea to keep the fux- niture polish in a warm place. Not only will it spread more quickly, it will also do a more efficient clean ing and polishing job. Slightly dampening the dust cloth with hot water will also help spread the pol ish.
