These Metal Bed Frames
Have New Swing Hinges

The new development by thi,
manufacturer that will help you
most in setting up q twin bed
room are the Swing hinges
which fasten the frames to the
headboard. producing q stable
dependable connection. One
hinge bracket Is screwed into
the foot Of the headboard, the
other bolted to the frame. They
are held together by q close fit-
ting metal pin.
When this arrangement 1.
used, the headhoard bears part
Of the weight and will not wob.
BILE, float or walk" forward
every time the beds are swung
apart. The swing hinges are in
stalled on the outside corner OF
each frame. Since there is nc
leg at this corner the headboard
bears the weight and conse-
quently only three casters are
required for each frame.
The frames can be equipped
with casters Of your choice, in
sizes ranging from 1ss inches
diameter to three inches. You
might consider special brake
casters which stay put on the
smoothest. most highly polished
floor and can be released at che
touch Of q toe.

New metal bed frames espe.

making and cleaning. This cuts
down q chore that even the most
devoted homemaker doesn't par.
ticularly relish. Bedrooms o.
limited size now take twin bedl
comfortably. using economically
space that would not permit two
single beds in normal arrange
ment with q night table between
them.
To start your project, select
an 80-inch headboard finished
in wood to match the other fur
Initure in the room, or uphol-
stored in colorful fabrics. Your
furniture dealer offers q wide
variety Of appealing headboards.
III the man Of the house is a

One national manufacturer
is marketing q line of metal

80 inches If you're using two box
springs and mattresses Of that
size with the Hollywood head
board. Siderails Of these frames
ARE II inches long.

of twin-bed is that the home-
maker reduces to q minimum
bed-making and cleaning time.
Either bed can be swung far
enough apart for daily Dedmak-
ing and then restored to its
usual position. When the rug or
carpet under the beds is to be
vacuumed, the beds can be swung
to an extremely wide angle or
even detached from the head
board BY lifting out the pin.

WHY GROW OLD?
Correct Defects
OrForget Them
N By JOSEPHINE LOWMAN

The woman who is vitality
interested in life. the one who
is in love with life. is apt
to have a keen interest in her
personal appearance. It is
usually when she has given up
to hopelessneSs, when boredom
dulls her days. or when she
has lost sight Of herself as an
individual that she becomes
dowdy and careless in physical
care and enhancement.
Concern as to how she looks
is one Of the first signs Of
recovery after a woman has
had a serious illness. It is also
one of the first attitudes
physicians try to stimulate In
mentally depressed or de-
ranged individuals.
So we need not consider
ourselves vain If we have a
lively and healthy interest in
our appearance. Nevertheless,
some women take this outlook
SO far that they forget some
of the more essential ingredi-
ents of charm and popularity
and happiness.
Almost Ruin Lives
I have had letters from
women who were allowing a
bad case of freckles, black
heads. too little height or too
much. acne. an oversize nose
or slightly knocked knees.
nearly to ruin their lives. Be-
cause Of these physical defects.
they were not assuming their
natural roles and indulging
in activities they enjoyed or
meeting new people they would
like. Their personalities had
become negative and apologetic
because they had become self
conscious and shy.
There is help for most
physical defects. Many Of
them can be remedied and
practically all of them can be
improved. AS all of you who
read this column know, I be-
lieve in correcting all Of the
defects which can be corrected.
Certainly take corrective and
preventive measures and then
forget your defects.
Measure Of Life
However. from the larger
view 1t seems silly to measure
life in inches, in the state Of
the complexion, in the shape
OF a leg or the turn of a nose.
Warmth, a sincere liking peo-
pie and an interest in them,
good spirits, enthusiasm. love
OF life and understanding. are
the touchstones for happiness
as well as for popularity.
