SHE'D , ) hmlik ) for it y 52ft 'A INSTEAD OP (Mia Kln is PortUrtd girl, whose flret new ' papr work was published in The Journal w- ,nl yrm ago. Bbe now 1 located in New York.) All I know about interior deco rations is what I've picked up around restaurants with a knife and fork. But I sure wish I could see spots" that ain't soup stains. 1 was out the other day with one of my gang and she throws a fit over a bolt of bandanna cloth, and can't live till she buys an eighth of a yard off It. ,1 couldn't figure what she was going to make out of It, but she soon put a period to my Ignorance when she started raving over what a won derful "spot" it was. I had to admit that if she had bought enough to square off a hand kerchief It would show up in a crowd ; but she didn't get enough. And then she drags me up to her apartment, makes a dive for a ham mer and tack and says, "I know just where that's going to go." She nails it up on the -kail and then she slides . down deep Into a chair and drags on a cigarette, look ing at this rag like she thought it was going to disappear or change into a kimono. Then she says : "That's just what I've been look ing for. I needed that spot right there." As far as I could get any idea, it seems that she's daffy on interior decorations. She stands in the mid dle of the room measuring every thing, like a detective trying to get a clue. Finally she settles on a one line picture of a bovine browed dame and suddenly asks me what I think of that print! For a minute you'd think she'd run down a finger print. To me that ain't up, on any thing but news print and linotypes, a Holbein looks like a Hoist el n. I don't dare to get in bad, so I just keep still! But all the time .I'm hoDin' the yellow teapot ain't just for an ornament ! Well, anyway, all you get out of life are the thrills! And so If you ge'. a kick out of color it's a lot safer to look upon the rag that is red than the wine that is wood al cohol. Personally I gotta be square and confess that I prefer interior deco RATIONS like planked steak and fried sweet potatoes, but maybe that's because I run more to sole than soul. But I've got wise to one thing. Whenever I see anything in any body's apartment that I can't fig ure out, I just remark that it's a wonderful "spot" and right away they think I know all about every thing artistic But I' wonder where the "spot cash" comes in on that stuff. It must be a good graft for somebody or there wouldn't be so many "spot " ters" working at it. Open Shop Decalrwd by Barber Spokane, Jan. 14. J. E.
