r Alj Cj b COMBINATION FURNITURE IS USEFUL IN SMALL HOMES

Four-in-One Bookcase Is Bright Idea 7 BY JULIA BLANSHARD NEA Rtrrlce Writer NEW YORK. Aug. 19—Combination furniture is not only new and modern. It is extremely useful for those of us who are cramped for space. Since most boys seem to draw the small rooms of the home, some smart-looking combination pieces have been designed to give them utility and at the same time add smartness to their quarters. There are studio beds for boys' rooms that have bookcase ends, in set back manner. Plain, almost severe. are these. Yet some way hey have a mannish strength about them that make boys like them. For the young man of college age, a studio bed with a bookcase on one end and a flat table for a reading lamp and smoking materials on the other, is extremely good. A “Four-in-One” Model Among the latest pieces that combine several kinds of furniture in a single unit is a modernistic bookcase that has radio cabinet, desk and chiffonier arrangement as well. This “four-in-one” comes in unpainted version or you can get it in maple or other pretty woods to match other things in your room. The radio cabinet part of it t scarcely noticeable and the <Jesk end pushes in and closes with a plain front. There are book shelves under the desk and radio cabinet part and in between are shallow shelves for magazines. Under the radio is a single compartment that opens with drawers inside for handkercheifs, gloves and other costume accessories. Or you can store your receipts, manuscripts and other business equipment there. An Electric Kitchenet Very new for women or men who are apartment home addicts and yet enjoy a bit of cooking is the kitchenct table that has electric equipment in a drawer that pulls out, a chair that fits into the front when not in use and a top that opens out to use for a table. Then there is the electric refrigerator. a tiny one, that is made with an electric stove on top of it, thus saving much space. The comfortable easy chair that has a single drawer under it for linen is not new. But there arc brand new contrivances, sets of two big drawers or one even larger one. that fit under beds and can hold all your bedding and clothes* These are made very well and so pull out easily and you can run them back in by pushing with your foot. Dining Room Substitute The combination units for the room with no dining room are extremely good. These are made to hold your china, silver and have drawers for linen, and all the time the thing that you notice about them are the one or two shelves holding decorative bits of porcelain or the newest books. Some of these, for use as kitchenet units, have a front that let down to be used as an emergency eating space. The good thing about any’ of these is the inspiration they are for your own ingenuity. Just what a handy man about the house, or a handy woman, for that matter, can do with a couple of good crates can scarcely be underestimated.

HANDY FOR BOY’S ROOM

A handsome four-in-onc combination piece of furniture, especially good for a boy's room or a man's apartment, has a desk, radio, book and magazine shelves and a compartment for neckties, handkerchiefs and other things. It is made of fine walnut and so sleek is its design that it appears much smaller than it really is. (Designed by Donald Desky.)

PARIS, Aug. 19. Colette: 'Pierre, I have taken a decision!” Pierre: ‘‘Be merciful, Colette—!” Colette: "Do you imply that my decisions are ever foolish?” Pierre: "They lack a sense of economy at least.” Colette: "For once I want to be economical, Pierre. I thought of substituting anew all-tube plate and trellis metal furniture for our old set—something rational, practical and hygienic.” Pierre: "Excellent idea. Only what is going to happen to you? If I change my furniture, I want a wife to match. Not a darling, rosy and blond and delicate crea-ture-like you. How about a handy, nonrusting, tin wife?” AND IF HE HADN'T SMILED! ana I THOUGHT that was good. Because I always sorta felt that way about tin furniture myself. When you go modern, be careful HOW you go about it—for you can spoil some charming effects and replace them with cold and unfeeling on. N Think whether modern furniture becomes you or nt>t, and if so, what TYPE of modern furniture. Tubes and machine wheels and brass railings are all right for smart cases, but they are NOT an appropriate background for a lovely lady. His den, perhaps, and one or two rooms in the hall, that's all. There are other modernistic twists to be given the sitting room, and especially your boudoir. ana Unless you sit down and send a 2-cent stamp to the Dare Department of The Times for the leaflet telling you how to make several parts of a fall ensemble achieve innumerable complete costumes, you know perfectly well that you’re going to be able to afford only one or two fall outfits.

Well, you can, with the proper figuring out —and that’s what we do for you so that you don’t have to! i a a a CHIFFON and lace can be nam-by-pamby unless it is in the hands of an expert.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES'.

Mother of Big Family Is Heroine BY MARTHA LEE Among the outstanding unsung heroines of the world are the young mothers of little broods, whose husbands make barely enough to keep things going. These mothers, in the good old days, were frequent enough, if one is to believe the chronologies of pioneers. But in a day when life is lived in a two or three-room apartment and the average salary barely supplies what we moderns consider necessities, a family of three or four children almost is a menagerie. Fifty years ago a woman married and settled herself to the task of having a family and keeping house. She didn’t care if she got a little heavy and matronly of figure. All the other wives did. too. She didn’t try to keep up with literature and art and music and politics. Such matters were entirely in the hands of the men cf nation. A woman who showed much interest in such things was considered unfeminine and rather queer. Wouldn’t Like Her The men who stand around talking about how great it would be if girls were like grandmother don’t know what they are talking about. A 1900 model girl would be as distasteful to them as a 1900 Ford (if there is such a thing). Men demand that their sweethearts and wives know more than how to beat up a one-egg cake and tat lace for the pillow slips. They demand that they have more selfpride than to become flabby and unwiledly in an age when other women are slim and chic looking. But they still want their wives to take care of the house, cook fine meals, rear a family of children and have plenty of .time and pep for a good party once in a while. These young mothers who are rearing families on small incomes are the unsung heroines I’m talking about. Read Advice Columns They read in the advice columns and hints to successful marriage (which was something wives of former generations never had to be worried with) that if a wife wants to hold her husband she must keep herself, her home and her children dainty and fresh. That she must keep up with him mentally. That she must read and improve her mind so that she can be interesting to him. That she must be on her toes every minute. That’s a tough assignment for a young woman with two or three children and no servants to help her. Dear Miss Lee—X am 25 years old and have been married five years. I have two small children. My husband makes a fair salary, but we just have enough to make both ends meet and X have to do all my own work. We both have had college educations, and are Interesting in keening up with the times. Since I have the children and all the work to do. X rarely find time to read or do anything but Just sit and feel tired. I have noticed my husband's lack of interest in my conversation, which consists mainly of things about the house and children, but I resent the fact that he does not understand what a really big job lam doing. We have ouitc a number of chances to attend parties and gatherings. and I am almost always to tired to go. And does he resent that? How can I make him see my side of things. MOTHER HUBBARD. If you could arrange it, the best way in the world to make him understand would be to change jobs with him for just a day. You happen to be placed in the same position of a number of young wives. You must be maid, cook, washerwoman, wife, mother and playmate. And you’ve got to fill all the jobs or lose out someplace. It’s pretty hard to see around the mountain right now, but the outcome is worth the struggle. You have no alternative. You either must carry on in high or quit altogether.

THE LAST CLOTHES OF SUMMER

There is a certain poignancy about the last party of summer. It seems selfish not to be your most beautiful and glamorous best, just to do it justice. To make it a memorable occasion, one that lingers tantalizingly in the minds of all males present, you should wear a trailing gown of loveliness, like any of these three. Left to Right—For real distinction, Molyxieux sends a green and white chiffon gown with tight hipline, accented by a bolero and an unusually dainty decolletage, a camisole bodice with the narrowest of shoulder straps. Daintily colorful is a

Maggy-Rouff Presents Stunning New Ideas in Her Lavish Paris Dresses

Following is the last of a series of dispatches describing the winter fashion opening in Paris. BY JOHN WHITE United Press Staff Correspondent PARIS, Aug. 19.—T0 strains of soft music, the Baroness Maggy de Besancon welcomed guests to her evening showing in her large salons on the Avenue des Champs-Elysees. The house of Maggy-Rouff was filled with flowers. Guests wore evening attire. In may be said, in summing up the collection, that Maggy-Rouff pushes black, was not opposed to a vivid green, and had many stunning new ideas not seen elsewhere. This question of black is becoming a problem at Paris openings. The

Pale blue velvet, the shade of the chiffon, makes a smash bow at the back of an evening gown and fashions the hem which joins the velvet in an intricate design of nervures, put in by hand. There is the same fine tracery of nervures around the hipline and all over the top of the bodice, which is round in front and dips to a deep V in the back. It is from Wi orth.

frequent offering of browns is the only thing that saves the situation for an American. For, elegant as black may be, it is difficult to persuade the American buying public to see things that way outside of New York or a funeial. New York wore more than usual last winter and may become still more somber this year. But buyers from Detroit, Cleveland, Kansas City and points west will turn to warmer tones. Among the ideas that characterized clothes at Maggy-Rouff’s was a way of fitting suit skirts over the hips, and buttoning them tightly down the middle of a back yoke with three buttons. There were a number of ensembles made of a heavy outer coat in rough black or brown tweed, sometimes green, lightened with white or creamy spots, the inner suit—short jacket and pleated skirt —made of a light, supple wool which fitted nicely under the big coat, and often designed to furnish an inner front vest and collar effect when the coat’s fur collar was opened. Fur collars were another of Maggy-Rouff’s points. They were huge, stand-up reaching almost to the top of the head, and extending four to six inches on

either side. Made of galliac, astrakan, chinchilla, and the shortclipped furs, they achieved a glossy, blocky effect in harmony with modern dress lines. Sometimes the. short furs were varied by the use of lynx. One model, “Tant Mieux” (so much the better), was a vivid green ensemble, the coat with high collar or lynx and the dress of crepe de chine, designed in narrow pleats. Maggy-Rouff used palest blue satin with black and with the deeper or mahogany browns, and many tissues of unusual mixture or combination. One of the most popular, lightest chiffon, printed with transparent velvet flowers, was seen in many evening gowns. These were sometimes pretty, when the background and the flowers were enough the same tone or blending tones to look like a melting together of nuances and sheens. But when there was too much contrast, the dress looked spotty from a distance and was not as effec '. ! ve as the simpler silks for night ligii-s. One of Maggy-Rouff’s most effective was called “un conte” (a tale) and displayed silver roses on a flesh-colored background. There was enough black and red in the flower design to give character to the robe.
