Wrought iron is now as dignified as a dowager and may be. used inside the house as well as out side. Rattan, with its remarkable new finishes, is steadily gaining a renewed acceptance. These two elements, rattan and wrought iron, have combined for an indefinite stay. I ' portability is" news in Uhe line 9f cast aluminum furniture which also resists rust Canvas chairs are still favorites. Such items as a side chair with set and back of tightly-stretched duck with heavy leather lacing on a wrought iron frame show good prospects. Sun lounges are still made in a va riety of materials, , The peacock chair of the illus trious past is one of the more exciting items in the field of furni ture! intended for either the draw ing room or patio. Wrought iron upholstered furni ture has expanded and there are such new additions as upholstered- back sectionals - and armchairs.

Living Room la planning the refurnishing of your living room, or if you want to add a new note of interest with a single furniture piece make the sofa be the salient unit! Today's styles vary to fit any room any arrangement! Your sofa can do, or undo space prob lems and room limitations. For small rooms, love seat sofas take up less, space, yet seat two people comfortably and, when larger accommodations are avail able move smartly into bedroom, hallway or for extra seating in a bigger, living room area. . Sectional pieces too, help meet decorating problems. They offer multiple seating plus the versa tility of being ; easily -adapted to smaller areas. Sectional pieces whether classic hi styling, or contepiporar ily modern, can be placed to form a semi-circle, an extra-Jong divan. or can be used in a smart, comer arrangement! For those homes lacking facili ties for (accommodating extra sleeping gtfests, sofas that open into comfortable beds with no loss of handsome styling or added hulk, offer handsome solutions. CUCUMBERS ESPALIERED For a crowded garden area, try training your cucumbers to grow on your fence. Use strong cord, not wire,for supporting ties. You will have better plants-if you pay close attention to their watering requirements and do not plant those that require lots of water fight next to those that prefer a drier, airier soiL RADIANT HEAT LIKE SUNLIGHT IN PRINCIPLE If you think heat rises, you're wrong. Hot air does, but heat alone doesn't rise any more than it falls. ; .That distinction is an important one for many home-owners, ac cording to American Builder magazine, which says that a radiant-heating panel in the ceiling of a room can be just as efficient as If it were in the floor. : Comparing a ceiling panel to the sun, the magazine says the ceiling panel warms occupants of the room in the same way heat is "received in a downward direction from the sun that is millions of miles away from the earth." Radiant heating is one of the newest home heating systems. Heat is spread through a house by circulating hot water through coils of pipe embedded in floors, walls -or ceilings of the rooms. The heating coils are completely concealed. A radiant-heating system is aot intended- to heat the air. In stead, it heats the persons and other objects in the room. High air temperature is not .necessary, American Builder says. Big Ben, London's famous clock, has faces 22 feet across, says the National Geographic Society.
