Recently I gave a talk to
nurses and doctors wives in
the recreation room Of a big
New York hospital, and we
had a good time together. I
talked informally about the
Importance of little things
and said, "I'd rather. do a
small thing attractively than
attempt something that was
going to take a lot of time
and money to prepare"
To demonstrate, I had two
card tables set up. One table
had a large black and white
check squares about 8
inches) tablecloth with let
black napkins. Vivid orange
plates with white undersides
showing, held daffodil yellow
bowls. White candles in shiny
glass candlesticks stood guard
over q centerpiece of crispy
beige rolls in a straw basket.
Goblets were Opaque white.
Briefly, the other table was
set with a pink and rosy-red
plaid tablecloth, solid rosy
red napkins. Centerpiece,
make-believe pink roses and
lily of the valley in a small
glass bowl. Plates, brown
bottom pottery, grass green
border with a floral center.
Green goblets on a plain
glass stem (pretty enough to
use as small vases.
Mrs. L. n. L. Asks:
Il have a large bedroom
for my two girls. The walls

beds. Would you please tell
me what color spreads, rug
and curtains to put up to
give it a lot of life? I would
like pink and white striped
chintz cafe curtains. Do you
think that would be right?
Please give me your idea"
Dear Mrs. L. N. L.:
I think pink and white
stripe cafe curtains would
look very pretty. Be sure
the stripes are wide enough or
you will get an all-over pink
effect. White bedspreads
with dust ruffies of the pink
and white stripe would appeal
to your girls I'm sure. And a
bright red rug and a bulletin
peg board painted the same
red would add a little red
pepper to the pink and white
confection.
