Scallops on Radiator Shelf-Repeat Those of Your Draperies Cornice

T'HIS winter as last we should * remember that the purpose of a radiator is to radiate heat and that we are not getting the maximum from fuel if we box the Radiator in with a tight cover. The shelf shown here is built well above the radiator and curving up under the shelf is a metal heat reflector which also covers the wall back of the radiator. The front and end of the shelf are

trimmed with cut-out wooden scallops repeating the curves of those used for the cornice shelf above. The cornice fits over the top of the window frame but is considerably wider to allow the overdraperies to hang straight at the sides of the radiator which is the width of the window. The sketch at the left shows how nails hold the box-like cornice in place and how the draperies are held inside with cup hooks. * • • NOTE —The attractive chair beside the radiator shelf is made with pattern No. 265. Scallop pattern No. 207 illustrates the steps in making cornices and also gives actual size pattern for scallops for cornice and edging of the shelf. Patterns are 15 cents each. Address:
