Cotton Is Finding New Favor as Floor Covering
By Giodys Miller
Seere'ory. New York Chapter
American Institute Of Decorators

During the war, when good car
pet woods were at premium, cot
ton came into its own as a fiber
for floor coverings.
Perhaps it all started with the
long woven bath rugs or the cot
ton string rugs that came from
Puerto Rico. Some clever decora-
tor sewed these string squares to-
gether to make a large rug.
Then domestic manufacturers.
who had been experimenting for
many months, decided now was
the time to use the few looms at
their disposal to make cotton
rugs. A wide variety of materials
was launched. Rugs were made
with twisted loops. cut or uncut.
to give shaggy appearance.
But there is always one stumb-
ling block-the cotton fiber itself.
It wears well. it dyes beautifully,
but it does soil more quickly than
wool. There is constant expert
mentation in treating cotton yarns
with plastic coatings which will
protect the small fiber ends from
absorbing accumulated dirt, with
out adding too greatly to the cost
Of the rug.
Meanwhile, cotton rugs and car
pets continue to be used and their
popularity grows. They are less
expensive than the same type of
wool carpet. they are decorative,
and even the wool shaggy type soil
more quickly than the closely
woven materials known before the
war.
AS most people consider the in
itial expense and the overall effect
more than they do the upkeep,
cotton rugs have a place in our
decorating scene. In warm cli-
mates. cotton rugs are extremely
acceptable.
Perhaps you have noticed I have
used the word rugs more than
carpet. I have done this inten-
tionally. In simple bedrooms. the
small rug which can be used on
either side of a bed or in front of
a chest, is small and light enough
to be thrown into washing ma
chine when soiled. It comes out
beautifully clean and good as new.

Widely Applicable Passage

Here is a passage, from VOL
colt Gibbs's review in the New
Yorker of 7. S. EIiot's play, "The
Cocktail Party" that would
probably be q true comment up
on many a play and book and
poem and story: There are
times when Mr.. Eliot's ideas
seem swallowed up in his own
subtlety and eloquence, and the
effect is rather like listening to
a brilliant man who has reached
that point of intoxication when,
while it is plain that his mind is
a treasure house of profoundly
important thoughts, the things
he actually says are no more than
fragmentary clues, majestic in
sound and syntax, almost un-
endurably provocative, but i'm
possible to piece together into a
coherent whole" From this Mr..
Gibbs went on to remark that
maybe the script, if one could get
at it, would make the meaning
clearer, because a reader can al
ways go back and read over
again: but it's different in the

In announcing the concert,
Mrs. Mary Jo Mclean, the Gra-

information about the pianist:
Ruth Geiger made her New
York debut in 1914 at Town Hall
under the auspices of the Naum-
burg Foundation. Even before
then she had begun to attract at
tention around New York as one
of the city's most frequent radio
performers. Today her reputa-
tion is secure not only in the ma
tion's metropolis, but is rapidly
gaining stature on a national
basis.
Born in Vienna, Miss Geiger
started her study Of the piano at
an early age and, while still a
child, appeared as soloist with an
orchestra. Another of her early
accomplishments was perform
ance for the world famous vir-
tuoso, Emil Saner, at the age of
eight. Her parents brought her to
this country before World War ii
and, when Is, she began her stud
les with Josef Lheyinne, under
whom she continued at the Juil-
lizard Graduate School, where she
held a fellowship for five years.
Since her graduation from Juil-
lard she has been working with
Ernst Rosenberg, who is her adj
wiser and coach.
miss Geiger is perhaps best
known for her unusual record of
having won two distinguished
awards in as many seasons, the
National Music League Award in
1912 and the Naumburg Award
a year later. In 1948, after COM
petition with 100 of Americas
most gifted pianists under %
