Bone Fish.


Bone fish are known as Lady,
fishes and Banana fish. They
are universally distributed on
sandy coasts of all tropical seas.
They range northward as far as
San Diego and Long Island and
are generally abundant.
The bone fish is little valued
as food except in Key West,
where it is held in high esteem.
The bone fish is a fighter. His
scrapping spirit attracts anglers
from afar.
The bone fish is rather long
and has small brilliant silvery
scales. The big head has a comic
snout. shaped like that of a pig
and overlapping the small in

eye is large with an annular
adipose eyelid. There are many
blunt teeth on the tongue. The

Slip Covers Can Help Your House Shift to Fall

little pattern in your living room
I advise patterned draperies. A
large floral pattern in blue, beige
and pink on maroon back
ground would be nice. Use a val
ance or cornice across the top
of the window and a wide Vene-
tian blind in ivory. Put books
and knickknacks on the shelves
on either side of the fireplace.
Question: The wall of my bed
room are knotty pine, the CELL
ing is painted blue and the furni-
ture is walnut. What colorS
would you suggest for the car
peting. draperies and bedspread?
Answer: With the knotty pine
walls in your bedroom, rust would
be a good color for the carpet
ing. A floral pattern in brown,
coral and beige on a background
the same shade of blue as the
ceiling would be nice for the
draperies, and for the bed I Sug-
gest a quilted coverlet in beige
with dust ruff1e of the drapery
fabric.
Question: We have a big old
fashioned kitchen. We do not
want to do any extensive re-
modelling but there is an old
wainscoating on the lower walls
which we want to remove and
replace with tile. The wood
work is an oak finish which we
do. not want to change. What
colors would you suggest for the
tile, upper walls and ceiling,
linoleum and breakfast set? The
ceiling is nine feet high: is there
any way that I can make it ap-
pear lower?
Answer: Painting the upper
walls and ceiling Of your kitchen
a dark color will make the room
appear lower, a dark shade of
green would do the trick. Use
bright yellow tile on the lower
walls and red linoleum on the
floor. Chartreuse would be a
good color for the breakfast set.
Question: The rug and the
wallpaper in my living room
have two-tone gray floral pat
terms. The sofa is green, a chair
is gray and the lamps are white
with green trim. What colorS
would you suggest for draperies
and another chair?
Answer: For the draperies in
your living room, suggest rose
and for the other chair, wine.

ors would you suggest for cur

Answer.-Chartreuse would be
good color for the curtains in
your powder room and for the

green.

By Betty Lenohon

When crisp autumn days come,
the gay airy effect wanted in
the home for summer looks for
lorn.
A change-about to rich. vib-
rant furnishings is in order; with
bright, warm colors that will well
come both family and friends like
an open hearth.
One can achieve this effect by
making a slip cover of a sturdy
fabric in the rich hue wanted.
Corduroy is especially suitable
for winter slip covers. 1t is sub
stantial and warm-looking and
companion color striped fabrics
can be had for the reverse side
of the cushions to add variety
to the decor.
A few lessons from the local
sewing center will help even the
amateur seamstress to do a truly
professional job. Keep the cor
duroy slip cover simple and tai
lored, with self welting, a fab
Recovered cord welting easily
made with the cording attach
ment on the sewing machine.
This style, with smart, inverted
corner pleats, will give the fin
ished cover real decorator look.
To estimate the yardage, take
the measurements of the piece
to be covered. AS a rule, the total
of all lengths of all sections of
the furniture pieces is figured.
All measurements should be
taken from the floor up. Find
the total number of inches and
divide by SO for the yardage re-
quired. Add another yard and q
half for welting and founces.
Cut the fabric in blocks for
each section of the piece. The
up-and-down of the fabric should
follow the up-and-down of the
chair or couch. Allow one-inch
seams on each piece and three
inches for tuck-in allowance at
inside back and sides. Pin blocks
right side out on the furniture
piece. Be sure to follow each
seam line in the furniture or
the cover will not fit properly.
Draw material to fit snugly.
Mark seam lines on fabric,
preferably with a blue pencil.
Use sharp scissors for cutting
and trim all seams evenly to
one inch. Notch seams at CEN
ter points and where fullness
in one section is to be controlled
when joining to corresponding
sections. Check fit carefully be-
fore cutting. The better the
pin-fltting job, the more sue
cessful the slip cover.
The skirt for the average fur
niture piece is at least 7 or 8
inches in depth and should clear
the floor 112 inches. Be sure
to cut on crosswise grain of fab
ric. Allow 2 inches for seam
or hem. If spaced pleats are
wanted measure the length
around the sofa or chair and
add the number of inches to be
taken up for each pleat.
Make the welting before JOIN
ing seams of slip cover. Re
member to use the cording foot
attachment to make this opera
ton an easy one. Material for
Welting should be cut on the
bias of the fabric.
Before joining seams, stitch
Welting first to one section, be-
ing sure to place stitched line
of welting directly over marked
line. Set the sewing machine at
10 stitches to the inch for pest
results when sewing corduroy
Do not try to insert welting and
join seams in one operation.
Join each seam section carefully

New York Next Stop
After Kramer Evens
5edgnlan Series
BY the Asseeioted Press

LOS ANGELES. Jan. SACK
Kramer, king Of the professional
tennis players. isn't abdicating
just yet.
Beaten by Frank Sedgman,
the Australian Davis Cup star.
in the opening match Of a 90
match tour, Kramer came back
last night to show why he's
rated the worlds best. Kramer
won in straight sets, 6-3. 60.
Pancho Segura beat Sedg-
mans fellow countryman. Ken
McGregor. for the second con-
secutive night, 6-2, 60.
And in what to many was the
evenings biggest surprise, the
Americans teamed up to whip
the Aussies in doubles, 81. 6-3,

Kramer in Complete Control.
Where Kramer in the opener
was having trouble with his
serve. and was plagued by re-
turns into the net time after
time on crucial points. he was
in complete control of the situ-
alton last night.
He crossed Sedgman often
with deep saashes to the corn
ers, his drives were hitting
inches from the sidelines, and
his play at the net was superior
almost all the way.
What is Kramer's own assess
ment?
"The man who is sharper each
night-maybe only a little bit
sharper-will win that night"
Thus, as the quartet flies out
today for New York and matches
in Madison Square Garden Sat-
urday and Sunday afternoons.
before going on to Washington,
D. c., next Wednesday and
Thursday, it looks like a tour as
tough as any Kramer has had to
keep his crown. In earlier pro
tours he has mastered Bobby
Riggs, Pancho Gonzales and
Segura.
Segura ut His Best.
Segura, the little Ecuadorean,
was at his cocly best as he poll
tshed of McGergor again. Before
the match, he said he thought
he could do his job more de-
cisively the second night than
the first. and he went out to
prove it. He broke the lanky,
23-year-old Ken's service twice
in each set, and the outcome was
never in doubt.
Kramer needed only to break
