For Holiday Protective Wax Reduces Damage Christmas activities center

around the home. So plan to have, the house looking its best before

the busy holiday season arrives. Along with clean

windows,

freshly ironed curtains and gen-| eral cleaning, it's a good idea to give a little special attention to]

wooden furniture.

Shining furni-|

ture does a great deal to nid}

sparkle to the house. And giving it a fresh coat of protective wax also helps reduce damage which might be done to table tops by spilled foods and beverages and sticky little fingers.!

Soap and Water

It wooden furniture

the first step is a thorough soap-|

and-water washing. This must be done with care, however, so that the water doesn’t have a chance to soak into the joints,

‘The surface should be: washed,|

a small area at a time, with suds] made from mild soap and lukewarm water, Then it should be quickly rinsed with clear water and dried thoroughly with a soft cloth. The best way to speed the progess so the wood is wet for the shortest possible time is to use two containers—one filled with soapy water, the other with rinse water, Place them within arm's reach along with plenty of soft cloths,

This “room with-a view" combines dining, generous-seating space. By JEAN TABBERT IT'S TIME to fall in step with TV. The home decoration trend, already recognized by those with television sets, adopted by the many new homes receiving video for Christmas, Actually the rules governing furniture placement are simple. formula that headlines comfort, for easy mobility and maximum

Many owners prefer the console in a recreation or informal setting, When this is the case, make furnishings frankly efficient. Shown in the photo are counter-high cabinets for food serving and storage. More shelves hold record albums, In such a room the old rule of never putting a plece of furniture diagonally across a corner can be ignored In the interest of better viewing.

Designing Woman—

Novel Flower-Candle Holders Will Be Tuesday

By ELIZABETH HILLYER HERE IS A novel idea for table decoration that makes use of containers you have by the dozens. l.ook no farther than the china cupboard for combination flower and candle holders --goblets, sherbets, footed tumblers, compotes, even small dessert bowls—all do very well, The trick to this idea is the florists’ wax that sets the candle securely in place. With the candle secured, fill the glass with water and flower arrangement is merely a matter of tucking in a wreath of small blooms, » » . FOUR TO six flower-candle decorations are most effective used together, require compara-

tively few flowers and insure enough holders that match, Try pom pons and daisy type

chrysanthemums now, roses and carnations later in the winter, all kinds of spring flowers when their season comes. This is party decoration, for the club tea, a shower or buffet supper, but is so simple to work out it can be used often for dinners at home.

Decorating With Pictures Large, Wide Mats Give Bold Effect

Sometimes the best furniture arrangement for a room places a big desk with one end against the wall. In this position, the desk may look almost too big for the room, and seem to jut out more than it should. Treat this problemi with your best decorating skill, Use pictures to lead the eye up the wall, away from the bulk of the desk.

Group Them

A few scattered pictures won't the trick. There must be enough of them, reaching high on the wall from near desk top level, and at. their best they spread to the exact width of the degk. Subjects of the pictures need not be large or complicated—they
