in North Korea.
A broadcast recordet' by the

camp was located far from any
military target or main supply
route. However, Allied planes also
seek out relatively isolated bivouac
areas because the Communist
armies often travel across coun-
try far from main roads.
The broadcast listed the fol-
lowing as dead: Capt. Robert
Hansen, c Company, 9th (possibly
29th, nc 9th Regiment in divi-
sion) Regiment, I'd Division; Capt
Melvin Stai. A Company. 23d REG

Ideas for stretching the home
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1951-02-10
By D. M. Derwin

Every glance at the calendar
assures us that winter Is almost
gone.
While the thought is comfort
ing, it is also disturbing because
many Of those things we planned
to do last September haven't been
done, such as getting new lawn
furniture made. or shopping for a
circulator fan with which to take
the hot spot out of a room.
Unfinished redwood lawn furni-
ture is high on the preference list
of many home owners because it
wears well, withstanding all types
of weather. One manufacturer,
realizing this, has designed two
seating pieces, an unpadded set
tee and chair which are COM
pletely foldable.
Shipped Assembled.
Not only can these be shipped
completely assembled and folded,
but no tools Of any kind are re-
quired to set them up, since the
pieces can be taken from the
carton and unfolded into position.
This is advantageous when winter
storing in the attic, basement or
garage is considered. Hardwood
bowels are used throughout at
all folding joints.
Adjustable Circulator Fan.
The newest floor model type cir
culator fan being marketed by one
firm is all steel, featuring a tilt
top for directing air wherever
desired.
This circulator provides $50 de-
gree circulation of floor zone air
and can be used in winter to dis
tribute warm air throughout the
room as well as cool breezes dur
ing hot, humid summer days.
The unit also features a three
speed control as well as a safety
guard which provides protection

Single Piece of Furniture Can Key Decoration of Home
By GIodys Miller
Secretary, N Y. chopssr.
American Institute Of Decorators

A well-decorated room looks
simple when you first enter it.
But the room that says, I'm
decorated" does not reflect the
owners personality even though
decorators principles are followed.
The fault lies in the lack Of
understanding Of the real value
of good decoration. Generally, peo-
pie assume that decorating is
either something superficial, or
that 1t is q fad or passing fancy.
The time is coming when boys
and girls will study the Importance
Of well-furnished homes, offices
and places of work to his mental
and social wellbeing. Then we will
give real consideration to each
purchase we make for our homes.
Old Patterns Breaking Down.
We will purchase furniture
pieces knowing that they may not
always be used as we will first use
them. The new house does not
allocate space by rooms, but by
areas. The old living room. dining
room, bedroom room pattern is
breaking down.
Nevertheless. if you have a de-
sire for a Dutch cupboard In
maple, cherry or pine, and hope
some time to have real dining |
room, buy it. For the present,
use the cupboard in your living
as bookcase. Later it can house
your fine china.
But when you have bought |
this piece, you have keyed the
decorations Of your room and your
home to a mellow informality
that should be retained. That
doesn't mean that everything
should be Early American, but it |
does mean that the hand-crafted
look in materials will be more
effective than the smooth, shiny
surfaces-that brass. pottery.
glass, toleware (painted tin) and
early lusters will be made in char
acter than silver or china. |
Textured Weave Rug.
You can give a contemporary
look to the room by using tex
tured weave rug on the floor, light |
in color value, instead of a hooked
rug or rag rug. You can use a
chintz covering on your simple |

sofa in a larger scale than the one
your ancestors might have used.
The draperies and sheer curtains
may hang straight to the floor
in simple lines and loose deep
folds. The lounge chairs may have
boxed pleated skirts, and the
cushions may be filled with foam
rubber.
Despite all Of these innovations
of your time, the atmosphere of
the room viii have a well-sea-
soned look of permanency. The
fabrics may wear out, but the re-
placements will be similar in
character, only changing with the
innovations of the times. Good
things are always good.
