You Con Key Your Modern Home to Antique Decor
BV Betty lenohon

Is Early American decor suit
able for a modern home?
The question is asked hun
dreds of times by homemakerS
who cling to their love of tradi-
tional furniture but also like
modern architecture.
The answer is, of course, eyes"
The architecture of the room
in the accompanying photograph
is definitely modern and the
hooked rug, the old Boston rocker
and maple table. the quantity
patterned chintz used for the
draperies. and the copies of old
prints above the fireplace are
all harmonious.
The rug sets the decorative
plan for the room.
In planning a traditional or
provincial decor for a modern
home it is always good idea to
remember that it is not necessary
to adhere strictly to one period.
Actually, the room in which one
or two periods are skillfully
blended is frequently more in
tereSting.
Don't be afraid to use a sofa
with modern lines with an old
maple cobbler'S bench for a cof-
fee able.
Don't be afraid to put a beau
tiful wrougt-iron table. such as
the one in this room, adjacent to
an old pine piece. Let good taste
and good sense be the guide and
don't be afraid to be individual.

THE KEY TO FREEDOM
Continued from page thirty-four

Jan knew that everything de-
pended on those eyes. on Sistro-
vic's ability to bear pain. When
he pulled, when the tooth loos-
ened - that was the moment. 1t
was then that Sistrovic would
close his eyes, wincing and screw
ing up his face in pain. In that
moment, he and the girl must act.
He shot a glance across at
Brijida. He fancied he caught a
flicker in her eyes, which told
him she was ready for any call.
GENTLY he eased the Jaws of
the pincers around the tooth.
Sistrovic's eyes were on his face,
the revolver hard against his
side. Jan saw the muscles tight
en- under the puffy layer of the
mans cheek, the great bull neck
strain.
Jan gripped hard, pulled back
and wrenched sideways. The
tooth came out like a piece of
rotten wood. Sistrovic felt a roar
ing surge of pain. His eyes closed
as he gasped with agony.
1t was then that Jan, twisting,
dropped the pincers and grabbed
the gun. He had no time to try
with one hand to fire it. He
smashed it down on Sisuovic's
skull. Sistrovic fell forward and
rolled across the floor.
''QUIcK = the keyr"
Brijida leaped forward, swept
up the key and was by his side.
Her hands fumbled for a mo-
ment, and then the handouts fell
away. Jan stepped forward, the
revolver pointed.
Sistrovic came up, swaying.
He stood there, squarely facing
his two enemies. But there was
no fear on his face = only a
vicious animal cunning.
Jan vividly aware of Brijida
at his side - was pitiless toward
one who had no pity. He raised
the revolver and fired. There was
an empty click. He fired again
and the hammer clicked uselessly.
Sistrovic laughed, a low bur-
bic of ugly sound, and the blood
ran from his mouth.
Poor stupid Dorac. Did you
think / would sit there with a
loaded pistol and give you the
chance you wanted? You were

wrong. I'm no idiot. He dropped
his hand to his pocket and pulled
out another revolver. See, |
have Arto's. If l had to stay here
with you, with your friends
around, had to be well armed.
And you" - he swung the re-
volver toward Brijida - you
with your pretty little act of hat
ing the great Dorac. E. Do you
think l forget names? Do you
think | do not know that Lubitz
Cernov, your husband, was shot
last month for treason? Get the
handouts; put one on him and
the other on yourself. Then toss
me the key and. we will start
walking. Quickly!"
BRIJIDA drew back, afraid.
'Do as he says. He will shoot"
JAMS voice was deep with de-
spair. But, as he turned to her,
he saw the candle on the table.
"Quickly!" Sistrovic snapped.
Brijida began to walk toward
the post from which dangled the
cuffs. Jan tensed, waiting, for her
to clear the line of fire. When she
was well away from him, he
lashed out. backward with his
right foot.
There was the sound of falling
glass as the bottle, holding the
candle, went over; and then -
darkness. Jan leaped forward
and, as the flame from Sistrovic's
first shot scared by him, he felt
his hands on the mans neck.
They went down together and
rolled, crashing, across the room.
Brijida. backed against the
wall, heard the scrape and crash
of their bodies. 1t seemed to 60
on and on, a noisy, unfathomable
horror in the darkness. There was
another shot; a long, weary sigh
of breath and then silence.
Someone moved in the dark
ness. A match was struck and
hands groped for the candle. Jan
stood before her. Behind him,
Sistrovic lay still on the floor.
Jan Dorac said nothing. He
placed the candle on the table.
He walked over to Brijida,. put a
hand gently on her shoulder. For
a moment she looked at him.
Then they turned toward the
door. They went out together.

GIRAFFE STUDY POSTPONED

DURHAM, N. C.-(P)-Native up
risings in Africa have postponed
a projected trip of three Duke uni
versity doctors to study the blood
pressure Of giraffes. Dr. James W.
Warren and his assistants, Drs.
Henry D. Mcintosh and f. Harvey
Estes, had planned the trip under
a grant of the Office Of Naval Re-
search. The grant has been extend
ed to January 1st.
An African hunter is holding
several giraffes for the Duke medi-
cal team. Theoretically, giraffe
lives with a constant blood pres
sure that would kill any other ami
NAL, including man. The research
ers want to learn how the giraffe's
heart and artery tissues stand the
strain of the high blood pressure.
