Roller Shades

Now says Miss Ruth Jamison

Roller shades today are dec

Gu m made Austrian or
Roman curtains made Of a semi
opaque material.
Woven wood and bamboo
shades put accent on styling
and are nice in their natural
colors or when spray painted to
match the wall or a drapery
fabric.
Roman shades are recessed
into the window and are attrac-
tive in unusual designs to blend
with other furnishings. When
used without curtains or drap-
cries, Roman shades provide
an inexpensive way to decorate
the win doWs. Austrian and
Roman shades look best when
used in rooms where the wood
work and walls are finished in
the same color of paint.
Translucent shades of cambria
OF the same color on both sides
can be used with sheer, semi
Opaque curtains and draperies.
You can use a valance to hide

By BETTY BEALE
Star Staff Writer

Mrs. John F. Kennedy has
accepted an honorary mem
bership in the Junior League
of Washington.
This is unusual both be-
cause Mrs. Kennedy is not
and never has been a joiner
of organizations and because
the Junior League of Wash
ington does not cuStomarily
bestow such memberships.
In fact, Jacqueline Kennedy
is the first First Lady to be
offered an honorary member
ship. But in accepting she
continues a traditional asso-
citation between the Junior
League and the White House.
ELEANOR ROOSE WELT
became a member of the Jun
ior League of New York in
1902, one year after this
first group was formed by
Averell H arrim a n S sister,
Mary Hartman Rumsey. She
started it for the purpose of
interesting young women of
well-to-do families in the
welfare needs of their COM
munity.
Back in 1902. when few
such girls went to college, and
still fewer held down jobs,
they had leisure time to spare,
and Miss Rumsey had them
doing menial jobs in settle
ment houses in no time. To
day every league member has
a job or is knocking herself
out in this servant-leSs world
being a housewife and q
mother, but still she must do
regular volunteer work for
her community.
MARGARET TRUMAN be-
came a provisional member
of the Junior League in 1916
and subsequently transferred
to the Kansas City league and
BAR A EISENHOWER
Joined the Washington league
in 1859, worked hard at
numerous jobs here and as a
nurses aide in the Gettys-
burg Hospital when she
moved up there. She still
does an excellent job at that
hospital where she is a board
member.
