' Pleasant chimes greet the visit- j
or as he pushes the door bell of :
the new home of the C. F. Wrlehls i
at 2343 Olive street which is this
week's Register-Guard "Home of:
the Week." The house was com-
pleted last October. From the en
trance hall one looks into the liv
ing room which is finished in I
Tdustv peach plaster and with fur-
uniture to match. A large mirror
over the fireplace showed two
tsides of lovely matching bouquets
toi apple blossoms.
J This room has special casement
curtains instead of Venetian
'blinds; these can be pulled clear
.,of the windows to give a full view
of the scenery and the landscaped
terrace in the back.
4 The dining room is to the left
!tmd it has two arched niches in
kthe corners which hold pottery
leases of a delicate blue. Mrs.
"Wright confessed that after she
fiiad searched San Francisco for
fhe right color, she found these in
''Eugene's green stamp department.
Cheerful Kitchen
The kitchen and utility room
jroom with a breakfast bar are
'cheerfully finished in red and
"white, with built-in corner cup
, boards which keep everything in
neat order. The U-kltchen was
"planned by the Wrights and has
J large cooler drawers built in the
) corners which will hold a box
of fruit at a time if necessary.
J Mrs. Wright says this is very
handy. She also likes the idea of a
5 concealed garbage can. It Is under
ithe back porch.
The house is furnished with
multi-breaker switch connections
i which are much handler than the
told fuse type connections.
J All the doors downstairs are
, plank and perfectly plain which
tMrs. Wright says are a great aid

Advice Given On
Spring Roof Repairs
When repairing composition
roofs, good use may be made of
a liquid asbestos roof coating.
First, the roof should be checked
over for nails that have become
loosened or pulled up by the
hot sun or frost. These should
be driven back into place thor
oughly. After the surface is
brushed clean, all breaks in the
old roofing as well as loose
seams, cracks and apertures
around nails whose heads are
rusted off should be filled with
the roof coating.
The coating should be spread
for two or three inches beyond
the break itself. A strip of mus
lin, large enough to cover, is then
pressed down firmly into the
coating so that no tag ends show.
Over this is poured enough
coating to thoroughly cover the
fabric and an additional inch
beyond the edges. The coating
should also be applied around
flashings after they have been
nailed down fast to prevent
leaks. The same type of treat
ment may be applied to badly
rusted gutters.

Proper Size Rugs
Add To Tone Of Room
By HELEN M. DAGGETT
Decorating Consultant
One of the sure harbingers of
Spring, traditional home refurn
ishing time, is the appearance of
new developments and new styles
in rugs and carpets. Generally
acknowledged by decorators to be
the foundation, the focal point of
a room, increasing attention is be
ing paid these days to the rug, and
to the many innovations recently
Introduced by America's rug man
ufacturers. Size ind Style Now Equal
to have a far-reaching effect on
to have a raf-reaching efect on
America's carpeting habits. For
years now size has been almost
an after-thought when buying a
new rug, secondary to the chief
requisites of style and pattern. But
now size is accorded equal footing
with those other important .con
siderations. Manufacturers are
turning out "Tailor-Made" rugs,
made in a wide enough range of
sizes to fit and fit correctly any
room, regardless of dimensions.
This new turn has the solid back
ing of decorative experts. One of
their most ironclad decrees is
"Good decoration starts with a
rug that fits." All of them agree
that a right size rug will make a
rom larger, better balanved, more
homelike. '
Allow 6 to 12 Inches
As an authority recently put it,
"A too-small rug is like a too
small suit. Both detract immeas
ureably from the appearance of
the wearer, in one case a room, in
the other a man. No room can pos
sibly hope to be smartly turned
out, to achieve that desirable dec
orative 'tone' or atmosphere, un
less it has a correct fitting rug on
the floor."
