Instead of hanging pictures separately, group small pic tures together on one wall to create a decorat ing center of interest. Grouped Pictures Add Charm to Rooms Slop hanging pictures nn walls so that they look like mis placed postage stamps. Improperly hung pictures will create havoc in a room setting quicker than you can say "Modigliani." Probably the commonest fault in hanging pictures, re ports the Picture and Frame Institute, is to place one small picture on a big wall. Needless to say, you'll soon need a pair nt binoculars to locate that cherished art masterpiece. The best way ot solving the picture hanging problem is to lake slock of your present as sets. You'll probably discover that you have quite a few small pictures scattered around the room. Stifle that tendency to leave them where they are because you can't stand a bare wall, and plan instead to group the pictures together on one wall. Whereas one picture on a wall can be a liability, a grouping of several pictures can be a striking decorative asset. Keep in mind, however, that the suc cess of most picture groupings depends on how well they are Hints From Heloise Dear Hclnise: I havt literally ruined my favorite orlon sweater by carelessly tossing it in the washing machine with other clothes, and now it has little black knots all over it. They will not brush off. Can you help me? HOMEMAKER Dear Mrs. Lewton: It might make you feel good to know that many people make this mistake. Just not being the only one helps, doesn't it? Well, the only answer we have is to take your husband's razor and CAREFULLY shave 'cm off! Lots of people shave sweaters! Now ... I don't push advice down anyone's throat, but I do send a hint this time. (After I got knots on my own sweater!) I have learned to turn a sweater wrong-side-out and button it up hefore ever washing it. Thus, the outside doesn't rub against other materials, which causes these knots. HELOISE Dear Heloise: An easy way to keep socks together when washing or lo keep straps from wrapping themselves around everything in the washing machine, and In protect all lingerie, is In put these "trouble makers" in a bag made very simply of two dish cloths. Buy the type of dish cloths that are made of loosely woven threads. Such a cloth lets plenty of suds and rinse water get inside. To make the bag, stitch two cloths together nn three sides so that it will look like a sack. It is usually best to stitch these sides several times so they will be secure. On the open side (or top of bag) slitch a hem about one inch deep. Turn the bag inside out so thai the seams will he on the Inside, and run a drawstrong through the top. Your washing machine bag is finished, ready for months of Service. , Actually, Hclnise, it almost lakes longer lo tell how lo make one than the time it takes lo make it. I can make a bag during the time it lakes for one long TV commercial. NANCY H. Pear Folks: I now possess three of these hags. In one I put my nylons from day lo day. Each week end I just throw the entire hag In the machine. Another bag holds husband's sox. The third bag holds head lettuce! When I am having company for dinner and want the lettuce real crisp, 1 just dampen the bag and place the head of letluce in it. It's great. Also absorbs that excess water from the lettuce. HELOISE Dear Heloise: After washing my tennis shoes in the washing machine, I spray them with thin starch. This puis a Ihin film over the cloth and prevents the soil from clinging to the fabric. The insides are still soft and at comfortable as can be. SANDRA designed in relation to the fur niture. Heavy pieces of furniture or a large furniture grouping re quire a large picture grouping to create balance. More delicate groupings, with fewer pictures, work well in small wall areas with lightly scaled furniture, advises the Picture and Frame Institute. Don't worry about the subject matters- of the pictures being in keeping with the room decor or even with each other. Framed pictures are meant to he ac cenls and some of the most ef fective accents are those that are highlighted by contrast. manners by muiett Guests shouldn't sit on arms of furniture, nor should they tip hack in a chair. n I'M JUST HAPPY wiih HOGAN'S . .

SCHARPF'S TWIN OAKS 699 High Street, Eugena By GAY PAULEY or the t'nltrd Pmi International NEW YORK fOPD Dangerous waters always have challenged Georgie White in the same way Mt. Everest always has chal lenged mountain climbers. As a result, Mrs. White boasts that she is the first person ever to "run" the rapids and cata racts of the Colorado River without portage. Today, a lithe, handsome and vigorous woman of 51, she has "lost count" of the number of times she has traversed the Col orado's hazardous course on a 330-mile run from Lee's Ferry, 125 miles north of Flagstaff, Ariz., to Temple Bar, Ariz., where Lake Mead begins. Mrs. White since 1951 has piloted passenger boat tours on a course which includes about 195 miles of treacherous rapids and cataracts. "Experts vary in estimating the number of rapids," she con tinued, in an interview. "They run from 200 to 400. Of course, it depends on what you call a rapid. To me, it has to be a mighty surge of water ... I know the Colorado so well by now." Winter Realtor Mrs. White, the wife of a re tired transit worker, lives in Los Angeles during the winter months where she and her sister, a school teacher, operate a real estate business. From early April through September, however, she is the pilot-navigator of the "Georgie White" boats, which actually are Navy surplus ncophrene rafts. The cruises last either 12 or 17 days, include stops along the way for hiking and overnight camping, and run either the full 330 miles or just the "smooth part" which is Glen Canyon. Mrs. White is consultant to Johnson Motors on the use of powered craft in rough waters and came to New York this week for the start of the an nual National Motor Boat Show. She said she uses two sizes of rafts. One is nine feet wide, 17 feet long; the other, nine feet wide and 30 feet long, ln each case, she hitches three of the rafts together broadside with nylon rope to provide the pas sengers a safe journey through the formidable waters. She said she never has had an accident. Shouts Order "The first day down stream, when we approach the first rap ids, I yell, 'Hold on, everybody,' and you can see passengers sit ting there frozen . . . wide-eyed and scared," she said. "After that, they can hardly wait for the next ones." Mrs. White said, "I think people enjoy this sport because it gets them completely away from everyday problems . . . back to rugged living. And there aren't too many things you can do these days to gel away from civilization." Mrs. White, a native of Chi cago, has had few dull moments in her life. During the Depres sion of the 1930s, she bicycled from New York to Los Angeles "just to see the country." She used to belong to Chicagos Polar Bear Club whose mem bers brave the ice of Lake Mich igan for winter swims. She says: "I always have liked the out door life . . especially the water." Diet Hint Studies of American diets show that calcium and ribofla vin (one of the B vitamins) are the two nutrients that most oft en fall short. Milk is richer in both these nutrients than any other food. &0W6 o : Jrvtevlo'iA DECORATING j AND SIFTS M -JTI. , Make an appointment today to have one of our decorators help you with your plans to beautify your home with: k carpets k draperies k lamps furniture k pictures 505 E. 11th DI 3-6241 . )W "IT T It T-i"T- Ti USE OUR BUDGET PLAN T IMIT RIGHTS 5 LANVIN PERFUME MIST "The Best Paris has to otter" ARPEGE MY SIN CRESCENDO 800 heavenly measured sprays in a convenient and beautiful designed container, 1 Vt oz.
