Varied Periods in Furnishings Make Room Attractive

Times Special NEW YORK, July 1—One of the most charming decorative exhibitions of the late season, that of the Decorators’ Club gallery in the Squibb Building, is also one of the most edifying. It consists of individual arrangements of fine antiques of different periods combined together with no regard for any rules but those of good taste and harmony and sprinkled occasionally with modern things. The ide&, of course, is to indicate how attractive antiques may be in use in present-day homes already furnished with many unrelated objects. Perhaps, of all the groupings, we likéd best Chiquita Marsching’s arrangement of- an unusual halfround Italian directoire table and chair, made of a beautifully textured, satiny fruitwood and set on a small old Aubusson rug ih a floral design in shades of pale magenta, grayish-blue and. white. The chair seat is a modern striped material in thé same colors. A breakfast setting for one, of gray modern Swédish china and modern Swedish glass, is<fixéd on a blue linen doily spread oh the table. Thé handles

on knife and fork are magenta. In.

a small glass vase are magenta and white flowers.

- Directoire Pape. _créen

A directoire paper screen is the focal point of the McBufney and Underwood setting, The main piece of furniture here is an exquisitely proportioned Lotils XVI fruitwood secretaire, opened to show its accessories—an antique French inkwell and pair of antique French square bottles decorated with Chinese mandarins, a pair of bronze dore Empire candlesticks and a French white and gold porcelain bowl with cover and saucer. Over the secretaire hangs a smoky Vepitian mirror ahd before it is x a directoire fruitwood side chair covered in green ledther. Close by is a Louis XVI fruitwood table bearing a reproduction of a white Empire-style lamp and an old blue ahd white Rockingham inkstand. By the table is a Louis XV French walnut fauteuil covered in rose silk. But what we liked best in the whole group were the two small antique French gouaches, hung one on top of each other, on the wall at one side of, the secretaire.

English Regéncy Group

An English Regency group was arranged by Hortense Reit. A sofa table, circa 1805, is placed at right angles and up against a wall. Facing It is 8 Regency armchair covered in green leathér, and opposite this a Regéncy side chair. Standing against the wall i8 a book rack of the same period. The table also a pair of prism candlesticks,

Wearing Hat in Sun Is Advised to Protect Hair

BY ALICIA HART

If you never wear a beach hat and insist upon playing golf and riding in rumble seats without a hat all summer, you might as well face the fact that, during September and October, you'll have to spend plenty. of time and a good deal of money on reconditioning treatments. - You simply can’t subject - your hair to hours of sunshine, dust and

wind and expect it to remain soft and healthy. If you haven't had your summer permanént wave yet, you ought fo plan to give your scalp several hot oil treatments before you make the appointment. The night before you intend to shampoo, part your hair in tiny sections &nd rub warm olive oil on évery inch .of the scalp. Massage it in with fingertips. Leave on until next morning, then shampoo in the usual manner. Use either half a cup of white vinegar or the juice of two fresh lemons in the next-to-the-last rinsing water. For golf, you ought to wear a small hat with a little brim. When you go to spend & day on the beach, take along a Wwide-brimmed one that will protect your eyes as well as your hair froin the glare of the sun. Drying your hair in the sunshine and going without a hat for 20 minutes now and then are excellent ideas, but excessive bakings are not. Hair and scalp need air, of course, but certainly not scorchings. If you are to.spend your vacation at a mountain or country resort where it is most inconvenient to get to a beauty shop, better decide on a summer. coiffure that you can wash and arrange yourself. For straight and naturally curly locks, the old windblown effects are especially good. If you feel that you must have 8 permanent, find a’ variety that requires a minimum of care. Or, better yet, learn to set wide, loose waves yourself. It can be done, but it takes time and practice.

Salads Tasty Menu Addition -

Attractive salads are light, appes tizing dishes that provide & wel come addition to any menu, declar® home economists. As the main course of a luncheon or buffet sup= per or as a substitute for a-cooked green vegetable with meat or fish, crisp lettuce which has been keph cold and fresh in the electric refrig= erator, and Sppropriately garnished, is delicious. Salads are healthful and refresh ing. Flavor is found te be greatly improved when ingredients ars stored in the special food crisper and vegetable basket of the modern electric refrigerator. Where the re= frigerator is’ equipped with a built= in thermometer, visible proof proper food preservation is provided, ‘and the housewife need have no fear that her lettuce will wilt or that her tomatoes will soften. The modern ‘woman, wishing te pe emancipated from kitchen rou= tine and to take advantage of her new freedom, has learned to depend more and more on the electric re= frigerator and other home appli=ances; - With food always on hand, safely kept in the refrigerator, she is ready at a moment’s notice to prepare a delicious salad, or to pre=pare a- dessert that will add to the enjoyment, health and nutrition o her family.
