PRINTED FABRICS ADD COLOR AND CHARM TO ROOMS
Linens and Silks Used on Walls BY JULIA BLANSIIABD NEA Service Writer In a winter where all paths ol hospitality must lead to your own home, each room in the house should be able to take great pride In its beauty and interesting character. We can't all have rare old pieces in our living rooms, handsomely set off by richly papered walls, priceless carpets, tapestries and paintings. Nor do we all want to spill the paint pot too modemly over all our belongings to create a contemporary effect. But every one who has a home sense likes that warm glow that comes with the consciousness that his home has an intriguing, comfortable beauty about it. There is an increasing vogue for Using fabrics as the decorative forces. For years printed drapes, sofa pillows, and slip covers have added their patterned figures to the interest and charm of a room. Used for Screens Today that vogue for figured materials as ornaments has spread. We find scenic frabrics making the • most alluring screens. We find walls papered with hand-blocked linens oi* specially treated silks and satin damasks. Perhaps the newest vogue for Using printed materials is to simulate a priceless tapestry and hang Over the fireplace an attractive but by no means costly width of material one that has an ptricate and interesting pattern for the eye to trace. The walls may be panelled in ?ood. Or they may be painted or finished in rough plaster effect, but jOf monotone. . Sometimes an India print elevated to the position of over-the-fnantel decoration does the trick for qolor, design and interest. Lunch Cloth Is Good Sometimes it may be a lunch Cloth brought back from Germany, a few yards of Russian manufactured cloth or handwoven peasant Cloth from the south of our own country. 1 When such an ornamental use Is made of a piece of fabric, it is quite necessary to tie up certain ether decorative things in the room With it. xou should not, however, use the isame fabric for any other purpose in the room, because’the repetition somehow takes its decorative value from it. Get another patterned material, Cretonne, mohair, silk, damask, or Jiand-blocked linen, and have at Jeast one chair covered with it. Or you may have a screen painted br made of fabric in a design that carries out the hanging’s color and •tmosphere. Framing Gives Dignity ' If you are fortunate and have old painted piece, a desk, a ire screen, a table or a chair, which has figures on it, the use of this in the room ties up the whole and gives it meaning. To hang a piece of fabric above the mantel you can do ope of several things. You can frame it, which probably gives it more dignity and importance than anything else would, but which is out of place in most informal homes. The best way is to back it with Unbleached muslin, by stitching it on a piece of the same size. This gives it weight, holds it in place and makes it more important. A lovely room that is an exquisite example to copy in less ex-

—Courtesy of W. and J. Sloane, N. Y. Against a wood panelled wall and floor covering in light tan monotone carpet, an old Chinese brocade in white, rose and gold hangs over the pink marble fireplace, Chinese figures adorn the green lacquered screen and Queen Anne secretary, which is green and yellow, and a chintz in Chinese figures in brown, blue and red, upholsters an old wing chair.
pensive printed materials uses a hanging over the fireplace, an arm chair upholstered in figured fabric and a lacquered secretary-desk and screen in Chinnoiserie. The walls are paneled wood, which may just as well be painted plaster or paneled plastered walls, and the floor covering is a monotone. An old Chinese brocade in white, rose and gold hang over a pink marble fireplace. A Queen Anne desk is yellow and green lacquer, with green lining, and a decorative lacquered screen is the same green. The old wing chair is covered with chintz in brown, blue and Chinese red. Given an eye to color and good taste in materials and figures that go together, you can simulate the pleasing effect of printed fabrics and a few pieces of painted furniture with decorative figures on them. It is anew combination in modem interior decorating schemes. A little experimenting is likely to bring the most pleasurable results to your home.

Convention Work Ended by Clubs BY MARY BINGHAM Delegates to the convention of the : Indiana Federation of Clubs can settle back for another year, their work accomplished. They have elected as their first vice-president, Mrs. Robert A. Hicks, Cambridge City, who defeated Mrs. Frederick G. Balz of Indianapolis. They have effected certain revisions in the federation constitution, but the most important of which limits the term of trustee to three •ears, without privilege of re-elec-hon. Another states that the county chairman shall enter upon their duties following the district con.entions, instead of after the state convention, as has been the custom. Stand Behind Prohibition The federation has taken a stand definitely in favor of prohibition, and also in favor of constitutional convention. It has opposed any change in the present state school child attendance law, welcomed the suggestion for state aid in public schools, and passed a resolution congratulating the state on its park system. •New department chairmen were to be appointed this morning at an executive board meeting at the Claypool, to succeed the following, who have resigned: Mrs. Harold Lawrance, Elgin, 111., press and publicity; Mrs. J. M. Thistlethwaite, Sherian, American citizenship; Mrs. Leon Stern, Terre Haute, fine arts, and Mrs. Curtis Hodges, American home. At the formal banquet which closed the convention Thursday night, Dr. Allen Deihl Albert addressed the group on “A Century of Progress.” The greatest work for organized club women in America in recognition of progress would be to take a definite stand against war, to prove its futility, and to carry the banner of peace, said Dr. Albert. Advances Arc Cited “Life sinfte the nineteenth century reflects new processes. So extraordinary has been the transformation that life itself has been prolonged. The change in living conditions has been coincident with the advance of science.” Dr. Albert discussed the new' erain science, the recent discoveries, stating that half of the discoveries were made by accident, because of man’s continual search for an ideal. ‘‘All business is founded in science,” he said, ‘‘and has its root in it. There are no national boundaries to science.” He mentioned, as one of the astonishing changes in the United States, the elimination of poverty in normal times. Another new sign of progress is the introduction and new stress on leisure time. Past Presidents Introduced Miss Alice Goldthwaite, Marion, reviewed, ‘‘Stepping Stones of Progress in the Federation.” “The stepping stones,” she said, “are the presidents.” She introduced the following past presidents who were present: Mrs. Elizabeth Claypool Earl, Mrs. Felix McWhirter, Mrs. E. C. Rumpler, Indianapolis; Mrs. Rose Budd Stewart, Muncie; Mrs. John E. Moore, Kokomo; Mrs. Frank Sheehan, Gary; Mrs. Hamet D. Hinkle, Vincennes; Miss Vida Newsom, Columbus, and the present president, Mrs. Edwin F. Miller, Peru. A musical program was given by Miss Rosemary Cook, Terre Haute, soprano, acompanied by Elvado Tassman Thompson and Miss Maude Custer, violinist, accompanied by Mrs. S. K. Ruick.
