QUESTION: A housewife from Lincoln, Me-, Mrs.
H. w. Pendergasf asks "Whaf are the factors that make
for good taste in the home?' We asked Bemice FIfz-
Gibbon head Of her own advertising agency and
Der of the Board of Directors of Montgomery Ward TO
write down OF the ideas home decorating for which
she has crnS0ded.
ANSWER: Everyone his own TASTE said the old lady
she kissed the cow and for 30 years American home
makers have relied on the old adys principle in deco
rating their families homes think it's time somebody
sent up warning signal.
The lesson American women must learn - or relearn
- is simply that there really is such thing as good
taste. We all born with taste other than the
taste in our mouths. When say Il know what like
really mean Il like what know Good taste. I'm
sorry to say just isn't of those things that
naturally. II has to be acquired.
And this may surprise you but it's harder acquire
than money.
Very often the well-heeled, solid citizen lives in
House Horrible, which is sometimes clutter of busy
ness, or as drab and empty prairie in mdwnter.
Here some general (but not inallibe) rules that
can help:
1. Open Your Eyes. Learn how see. Don't be like
the old farmer who backed out of his farm driveway into
the teeth of oncomng traffic. Don't you look?
one driver yelled. "Sure always look he said but
don't see too good" Look at your home freshly if
you stranger and had entered your house
before Then have the courage to discard pieces that
don't stand up to your objective gaze.
Look at new things effectively Perhaps clean grace
full naked lines will startle you if you've been used to
lush, overstued stuff. That's good If thing doesn't
startle you little don't recommend shrunken head
for the mantel thought, it will probably prove bana
and tireSome.
2. Choose TlHere Each room should he decorated
around CENTRAL underlying, hematic idea. Everything
that goes into the room should help carry out that idea
The theme of room could be lghtness or airiness

An Unlucky Horse
Sailor has been logged by in
Juries since the start of his
career. Not long after his 3
year-old debut at Hialeah he
developed a growth just above
the hoof and was slow to re-
spond to treatment.
Sailor won eight of IL races
as a 3-year-old. defeating such
oder stars as Bobby Brocato
and White Skies in the six-fur-
long Toboggan Handicap at Bel
mont Park. In that race, Sailor
was injured and forced out of
action five weeks.
The Campbell was his fourth
start as a four-year-old. He was

fourth in the Santa Anita Ma
