is furniture like this, summer furniture in name only. It may be termed instead a new
American style. .Hundreds of years have produced comparatively few furniture styles, but from the few basic designs of the summer furniture of only a few years ago, the so-called summer furniture of today has gone very far, It has developed individuality and character that is more than fashion. No furniture today is newer, more practical or more livable or makes more change in the American home, : a 8 8 MATERIALS ARE rattan, wood and metal, wrought iron for the most part, and because of shortages less steel and aluminum. The new furniture includes many kinds of new pleces. One is a table on wheels which is both a console against a wall and a serving cart that can go anywhere. Black is by far the favorite metal color and many pieces are of wrought iron with upholstery. and

Here's How
To Place Furniture
OU'VE heard that it's never right to place furniture at- an angle to
walls in the corners of a room.
There are few iron-clad rules for. home furnishing, but this is a near one—it has almost no exceptions. Certainly sofas, long tables, chests and benches shouldn't be angled in corners for very good reason—because they look haphazard and uncomfortable there, But a chair that isn’t too large often fits a corner more comfortably when it faces outward from a corner than when it parallels a wall. If it does, there's no reason it shouldn't be placed that way. ; u = » THE NEWEST corner problem comes with television— sometimes the best seating arrangement depends on placing the set in a corner. A good answer to this question is the television table that has a separate movable top. The table can be lined up with one wall and the set swung out to the right angle on its versatile top when the screen is in use.

cloth over it, coming just to the edge of the table.
Gold rhododendron leaves studded with gar--

IT WAS especially nice to have three grandmothers at this wedding, one of whom, Mrs. 0. G. Pfaff, wore a most becoming red velvet toque.
