Cafeteria Style With
Same Econcmy Note
By JEAN SPICKLEMIRE
Times Homes Editor EW furniture this year is being served up cafeteria style at cafeteria-like prices.
Manufacturers, through
their adept designers, have
individualized their lines. An unusual drawer front here,
a different type of leg there, a "special finish: give them an originality stamp: Typical are these bedroom groupings, all from JohnsonCarper. Created by clever Edmond J. Spence, each modern unit is unique as- though it came from a separate company. . =» =n n SIX VARIED woods in widely diverse finishes are utilized In each group there are eight basic pieces, Flaxen Korina, a blond Phi lippine wood like mahogany in graining, makes - the Chinese modern suite. Its drawer fronts are beveled picture framing in reverse. Handholds are concealed in the design. Baseboards melt into the tapered legs, bend to the floor, then return to the piece for support. Double dresser, five drawer chest and bed will cost approximately $289, An extra economy note: Young moderns could buy the dresser with a pair of junior chests now, place them in a long line as the character piece in an all-purpose room. Then, when larger quarters are available, the chest could return to its correct setting. n » on INLAID STRIPS of mahogany contrast with tawny Korina wood in the classic room pictured, Big style. note is the recessed drawer panels, Economy idea: The four-drawer
chest, a single dresser and
Hollywood bed will be sold under $200.
The vanity arrangement shows how easily a small piece can be dramatized for the long wall of a room. Night stands of the same height and depth
are used in unit formation to expand the vanity top, give added storage space, extra importance, singer spices the sophisticated pieces pictured. Made of Philippine mahogany, the units have cradle bases which extend up over piece bottoms. Shallow fluted drawer panels and the bases are the devices used to distinguish the group. The polished. brass hardware is as restrained as the rest of the furniture. The eight-drawer dresser, seldom seen in such an inexpensive grouping, keys the units to the much taste-little-money-in-the-pocket family The price? Three hundred dollars for eight-drawer dresser, six-drawer chest and bed Lined up “kick pleat” panels give a horizontal look to the brown bisque maple pieces shown. The block bases set beneath give additional contour interest. Hardware is dramatic with the muted. finish. Dresser, chest and bed will retail for $250. All the groupings may be ordered at Banner Whitehill.

According to psychologist Dr. George Lawton, other young people are equally bitter at the fate that links them to the century that discovered the A-bomb. “It is not fair,” one young American told Dr. Lawton, “that we should be so threatened before we're even grown up.” Commenting upon this problem in a recent issue of Parents’ Magazine, Dr. Lawton
writes, “A healthy person does not experience panic in advance of a real situation.”

To be truthful, I would like to see adults generally discard the.’ A-bomb as an alibi for anxieties that often have their source in fears that existed long before Hiroshima. The fact is—and check this with any psychiatrist if you wish--that thosé of us who worry excessively over the bomb would go right on worrying about something else if by some miracle the threat were lifted from us tomorrow morn-

He and his children were not afraid of dying because they were not afraid of living. One of my favorite psychiatrists is Dr. James T. Fisher. In his thrilling book, A FEW BUTTONS MISSING, he says: “We cannot continue indefinitely vearning for peace while anticipating war; groping for love while indulging in hatred; struggling for security while breeding insecurity.

Playing People as Well as Cards Important
RIDGE humanics—playing the people as well as the cards —enters into
every phase of the game. In recent columns we have been discussing the best tactics to use when the opponents have a part score, I have recommended shading the usual high card requirements a little to open the bidding in those situations. In, following this practice, however, it is well to consider Miss Brash Your current
partner and opponents. :
Mr. Abel didn't use very good
| judgment in this respect in to-
day's deal. His partner was Miss Lucy Brash, than whom there is' no looser bidder. His opponents were Mr. Dale and Mrs. Keen—not the hest perhaps, but quick doublers and reasonably sound in every department of the gaye, ” IN THIS SET:U P. Mr. Abel elected to open the * biaging on

And, as you see, it would have been pretty difficult to make either four diamonds or four hearts on the East-West cards. In other words, Miss Brash might have got to play three spades, down two, -only 100 points, n “an : AGAINST THE actual four spade bid, Mr, Dale opened the trey of diamonds which was ruffed on the board.
