Motalwarc Foremost in Fall's Houso
Goods, Stool and Iron Seem Plentiful
By Sue Gardner .
There is a good deal of metal
in the new
ules for the
housewares sched
retail market this
fall. Steel and
iron seem to be
-plentiful at the-
- moment and
- many manufac
ture r s a r
showing them
in preference to
I other materials
y"L featured inpre-
J vious seasons,
v A new utility
table of steel
v has t h r e e
" . shelves, s emi-
. tubular legs,
and a three-socket electrical out
let with an extension cord
mounted on one leg. This Is a
good item to use for breakfast or
buffet service outside the kitch
en, - when electrical appliances
are needed to heat food or keep
it warm. You can have the ta
ble in white, red, or yellow en-'
amel finish. It can be used as a
storage unit and there will be a
plastic ' cover available to keep
the table dust-free.
Another large metal item is a
combination dresser and ward
robe with a walnut crackle fin
ish. It provides closet space for
suits, and has a hat shelf and
three full drawers.
Large Boasters
Apparently there has been a
problem of fitting large-breasted
fowl in standard sized roasters,
because several companies are
featuring large roasting pans to
accommodate the bigger birds.
These are being shown at mod
erate prices in enamel with var
ious colored finishes.
Stainless steel is popular with
many designers and you find it
in new streamlined table ware,
in mixing bowls with easy grip
rings, in new automatic coffee
brewers, and in heavy-weight
cookware. For gardeners, there
is an all-steel watering can with
a supported spout, shown' with
colored finishes. A steel laundry
cart is a new note in the replace
able plastic laundry bag.
For those homemakers with
freezers : and refrigerators that
present ; a defrosting problem,
there is a new compound design
ed to absorb moisture and check
frost build-up. This product can
also be used between storm win
dows and regular windows dur
ing the winter. A new chloro
phyll moth preventative deodor
izes and kills moths when pla
ced in closets. Another innova
tion in the housewares field is a
small "aluminum packet which
contains crystals designed to
keep foods fresh by absorbing
moisture.

Excursion From
Portland to State
Fair Scheduled
A large scale Portlanders ex
cursion to the State Fair is being
planned. Fair Manager Leo G.
Spitzbart said Saturday. -
- After conferring with Portland
As color has a psychological ef
fect on our reactions to tempera
ture,! it naturally follows that we
take iclimate and seasonal
changes into consideration when
we plan our rooms.
Warm colors include all the
reds,: yellows, browns and their
derivatives. The blues, greens.
blue-greens, and blue-violets have
cooling effect, ' also are more
ght absorbing. A north room, for
instance, might have soft peach
walls or pale sunlight yellow.
for warmth and light during win-J
ter. This could be modified and
cooled down by using soft green
or blue slip covers during sum
mer months. Green walls and
carpet would be an excellent
choice for a room with a southern
exposure easily warmed up by a
crimson sofa during winter
months. Sofa (which might have
summer sup cover), would also
add dramatic color emphasis to the
room.
