BY R. KENNETH EVANS "Excitiwr thinirs are haDneninir in the wallnanpp wnrlri maiea ion Morgan or. the Morgan Decorators, 517 S. Steph ens, in Roseburg. "Katzenbach and Warren's new collec tions are the most original and beautiful that those inter ested in new wallpaper in their homes, ever feasted their eyes upon, and they cost no more than ordinary papers." However, this is only one of the nationally known lines of wallpaper that Morgan Decorators makes available to homeowners, and commercial firms, in the Roseburg region. There are approximately 150 books of the latest and most original wallpaper samples from which to make selections at Morgan Decorators. These include Birge, Imperial, Stockwell in addition to the Katzenbach and warren natural illustrations, and others. uou ana ray Morgan, husband and . wife, have been rpeiriAnt. or. luMeDurg since 1949. They are both nativei of the ttate of Iowa, and both understand the tech niques and style trends of interior decorating. When the Homiu came to Roseburg Don Morgan es- lauuaircu a pauiuug ana interior decorating business on a contract ual basis. Since that time, many private homes and commercial i buildings in Roseburg, Douglas I county ana wis section of Oregon, have been painted and decorated Dy me Morgans. New Store Established The painting and interior dec orating business grew to such pro portions that, both Don and Fay Morgan decided that they could improve their service to f- jtom ers and have a wider field jf dem onstrations, by establishing an em porium where displays could be impressively made, and merchan dise available at retail, for the pa trons who desired to do their own work. Accordingly June 1, 1952 the Morgan Decorators store, at 517 South Stephens street, was open ed. The store Is well arranged for the display of merchandise which is available at retail. This includes a complete stock of paints manu factured by the W. P. Fuller com pany. These paints are made on the west coast, and years ago, when this paint factory was estab lished, paint formulas were work ed out and tested to give effect to weather conditions. This makes for a longevity of wear that cannot be secured from paints which are manufactured for universal use in all sections of the nation. Fuller Paints have always been recognized for the superior diver sity of color blending for both in terior and exterior use. Authentic color harmonies can be selected at Morgan Decorators, and the paints can be mixed and blended to harmonize with the individual environment and surroundings wnere iney are to ne usea. The background of 28 'years painting experience makes it possible for Don Morgan to aid the customers in making blended color selections I that are best suited for their par ! ticular exterior or interior paint ing. I Custom Drapery Service I A wide disnlav of drancrv ma terials is also to be found at this store which includes chintzes, Glo shecn. bark cloth, linens, ravons. silks, chromspuns etc. Fay Morgan has had many years experience in the drapery field. Draperies will be made by Fay Morgan on a cus tom basis, for the individual cus tomers. From 1930 to 1949, Fay Morgan was employed as a seam stress in the larger garment arid drapery factories in Omaha. Ne- ; braska. She is always pleased to discuss the type of fabrics that i should be used for custom draper ; ies, and explain how they will be made to fit the individual environ : ment. After the decision is reach i ed these draperies are made by j Fay Morgan and installed, j A diversified stock of Gould's and Marshal-McMurray drapery j hardware is carried in stock from which the customer may select the : type of hardware desired for the ; custom draperies made by Fay j Morgan. Mrs. Morgan is always in I the retail store during business hours and Invites those interested in interior decorating to visit the store and discuss their needs and desires. A Painttr All of Hit Life Don Morgan has been identi fied with commercial painting and decorating since bit sixth-grade school days. He served his appren ticeship in Carroll, Iowa As a jour neyman painter and interior dec orator he was employed for ten years, by the Langenfeld Studios, located in Carroll. Iowa. Don spe cialised in uesigmug stuo aecuraung iwainouc cnurcnes ana theaters. Don resigned his position with the Langenfeld Studio to accept the superintendence of the decorating department of the Orchard and Wilhelm Furniture company, the largest .store of its kind in Omaha, Nebraska. He remained in this position until 1949 when the Morgans decided to come to Rose burg. These years of experience make it possible for the Morgans to do artistic as well as practical inter ior decorating and provide all of Uie materials in addition to doing the actual work. They both can rightfully live up ta the title "Mor gan Decorators." Auxiliary to tne general interior decorating wok as outlined, the Morgan Decorators also supdIv Sun Vertical blinds on a custom basis. These vertical blinds consist of celonese ribbons, which, unlike Ve netian blinds, are vertical rather than horizontal. .Vertical blinds are much easier to keep clean and, ac cording to Don Morgan, all that is necessary to clean Sun Vertical Blinds is to place them in a wash ing machine, hang them cut to dry, then put them bade in .place looking like new. Sun Vertical Blinds are custom built and install ed by Morgan Decorators. Mirrors or all types are also an important part of the stock of mer chandise and service maintained by Morgan Decorators. Pittsburgh Plate Glass mirrors can be sup plied either in full-length for doors. or for any use that mirrors are adaptable. Mirrors can be suonlied on a custom basis to meet the spe cifications and requirements of the I individual customer. A complete stock of oainters sun- i plies, including nationally known : brands, are carried in stock at the retail store of Morgan Decorat- ors. ! . "We would like to take this op-1 portunity to express our heartfelt i appreciation for the fine accept ance which has been given our ! services Dy tne people of Kose burg and the Umpqua valley" stated Don Morgan. "Both of us have been kept unusually busy at our chosen work since coming to Roseburg and, will always contin ue to do each individual job as well as our many years of ex perience makes it possible to do."
