A Hello again was just talking to someone about the timidity we seem to show in giving our homes an individual personality. We each yearn to do something daring in the way of decorating, admire the airy light touch of the new designs, and yet because we don't see them used in the house next door we feel timid about going ahead with such ideas at home. Now that's unusual when we have the same feminine charac teristics that make us want to be the first to wear a new style in hats or silhouette, and wouldn t be caught dead in something the same as our neighbor! Or the masculine traits that go all out for a boat or fishing equipment with the latest notions. Funny, aren't we? We all spend about the same length of time doing the same things eating, resting, entertain ingbut we are all individuals with individual taste. If we could look objectively at our given si tuation at home, study our de sires and requirements, we might find that we are "getting by" without the things that would really make us happy and give us convenience. Let's ask ourselves a few questions are we eating our meals without the pleasure of a garden view? Are we reading without adequate lighting, with out a convenient table for cur rent magazines and books at arms reach? When we invite guests in for the evening, is it a problem to group them for easy conversation, do we have to dis arrange the whole living room? It's easy to answer this question after your guests leave and see the arrangement of the furni ture. If chairs are in the same places as before, you have no problem! To work out practical and logi cal answers to such searching 'questions may develop the 'in dividual" look you want to achieve in your goal. It isn't too difficult to install glass doors opening to the back lawn, or to put in low windows for a garden view.

Try unrolling a ball of twine behind you as you walk through the living room in the most used traffic-lanes. This will show ex actly which pieces of furniture r lAft flnatin off to them selves. This may be the answer to the former question, of why fnmiture is alwavs shifted. Logic may seem devoid of' the artistic touch until you are through with these changes but thn th results will show it vas worth all the trouble, and your home will speak more clearly of noven, wagner ana weoer. 10:30 a.m. CBS Preliminary program, "Your Invitation to Music."

From a sta rlit g roup at 5 STATESMAN SUNDAY 4 Record Seven Symphonies of Jan Sibelius By MA3CINE BUREN Statesman Music Editor The seven symphonies of Sibel ius, played by the Stockholm Radio Orchestra directed by Sixten Ehr ling were recorded by Mercury and have already been issued. Nos. 3 and 7 began the series and were pressed on one record. Also pressed on a single record are 5 and 6, all others take both sides of the disks, thus completing the series on five recorcs. This week we heard Symphony No. 2 in D Major, of which one music writer said "It is too old (1901) to be called modern, ani too individual to be classed with other creations of its period." Ehrling is obviously a fine con ductor and his orchestra is first class. Previously we reviewed to Nos. 3 and 7 and No. 4 available at local shops. George Szell conducts the Cleve land Orchestra and Rudolf Serkin plays the piano in the Brahms Con certo No. 1 in D Minor on a Columbia recording. The concerto, which has had quite a history, was originally conceived as a sym phony, then as a sonata for two pianos, and finally in its present form. It is difficult, pianistically. but because of the real demands on the pianist, not because of any grandstanding or exhibitionism Serkin is the man who can per form it, and he does in this ex cellent recording, made in the fall of 1952 at Cleveland. Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 5 in E Minor was another of the records on this week's listening. Anatal Dorati directs the Minne apolis Symphony Orchestra in what is a lively and clear recording? Howard Hansen Conducts the Eastman Rochester Symphony or chestra in a reading of three works that take their inspiration from song and dance. The Mercury disk includes Riegger's New Dance, Hovhaness' Concerto No. 1 for Or chestra and Cowell's -"Symphony No. 4. All of course are contem porary, and represent a wide range of backgrounds.

Acknowledge his courtesy with d smile or even a nod, and he'll be glad he stopped. The hard way . . . We hope that the father with the big smile on his face who " was driving a. shiny new tractor and disk out our way, can keep his smile a long time. We suspect him of being new at the tractor driving game, for standing at his back, poised on what must be a precarious footing just in front of the disk was his happy young son. We shuddered then and are still worry ing for one misstep, or one unexpected tilt of the tractor and the boy might slip into the sharp blades of the disk. You can't go up to a man and say "Do you realize that you are endangering your small son's life?", but we were certainly tempted . . Maxine Buren. Speaker,.
