Visit to 3 Local Homes Reveals Enticing Spots For Attracting Guests
Coburns’ Summer Place Has Old World Courtvard With French Street Lamp; Circus Room Provides Gay Setting at Hess’ House.
By VIRGINIA MOORHEAD MANNON Never before has home-making had so many lively In an era in which it's next to impossible to keep guests safely anchored in the living room the wisest procedure is simply to face the facts and fix up a cozy spot in or around the house to which they'll naturally gravitate. One glimpse of the little walled courtvard at the rear of Mr. and Mrs. Erwin Coburn’s summer home on White River is enough to see why it's a magnet for everyone who wants to go to Paris and can’t get there. From the old French street lamp which once threw its rays along Paris boulevards to the painted iron grill work from the New Orleans French quarter which guards the windows and rails the steps, it emanates old world charm. limbing roses trail outside the painted brick wall while pots lums hang on the outside. On the upper ledge stand lue boxes filled with pink petunias. There's a semicirin with a row of old tiles above it at one side and a nware English fountain in a corner. A flock of brightwooden birds nestling together atop the bricks > china pigs across the cobblestone courtyard. ‘iveled red a reen peppers, golden ears of corn d notes of color which are completely eclipsed by mage of Poily, the gold and blue macaw, who swings adjacent to the house. English ivy trails from ground around the small trees. Circular wooden he spreading maple tree which shades the chairs le with its yellow bowl of fruit and wooden coffee grinder: \ gly ready to play its hospitable part.
