WORK OUT A COLOR
SCHEME BACKWARDS
One of the best and easiest ways
to color scheme is to start with
printed fabric, and choose all the
colors, for the room to match the
colors in its pattern. But what if
you aren't starting the color
scheme? What if there already
sxe colors in the room that must
stay as they are? How can a good
color scheme be worked out by
changing only a few things? Ac
tually most' color schemers must
use colors that are established,
the starters-with-a-clean-slate are
comparatively few. But the idea of
color scheming with a fabric pat
tern is still good it works back
ward as well as forward. When
there are established colors, say in
furniture covers, walls and the rug,1
mn a xaorcc mat comnines tneir
colors. It will center the color
scheme and give it meaning by
bringing together the shades that
now may be unrelated and scatter
ed. Uae this key fabric for slip
covers, drapecies, those' things
which can be new in the room.

On Etiquette
By KoberU Lao
Q. What rules apply to a bride's
displaying her wedding gifts?
A. Sometimes the gifts are
shown only to the relatives and
close friends. It is quite all right,
however, to let all the guests for
the reception view the gifts, a
special room being set aside for
displaying them.
Q. I know of one person who
makes a habit of placing his hand
on a person's arm while talking
with him. What do you think of
this?
A. This may be a friendly ges
ture, but it is very annoying to
some people, and it is better to
avoid the reputation of being a
"pawer."
Q. Is it all right for a person
to butter an entire slice of bread
at a meal?
A. No; the bread should be but
tered onls a small piece at a time.
