Colorful Furniture Said Sign of Spring Chicago 'IP Home decorat ors had a bad case of spring fever this year, and their ail ment showed up in the new spring furniture. Every material from wood to wrought Iron has taken on some colorful spring changes, says Dorothy Iwig, University of Illinois home furnishings spe cialist. In wrought iron lawn pieces, says Miss Iwig. rich blues, greens, and even lilacs and terra cottas are used with the old standard white. When chosen tastefully, she says, this colorful furniture can do much to lighten and brighten a room. But the furniture must f;t into the character of the room, she warns. The practical homemaker doesn't have to buy new furni ture to keep up with the trend, says Miss Iwig. Either paint old furniture or add colorful cush ions, she advises.

REPLACE YOUR OLD MATTRESSES and count what you SAVEI W Five Million Youngsters Go To Camp By GAY PAULEY United Press Correspondent New York 'IP This is the time of the year the children head for the hills and the, weepy parents for the handkerchiefs The end of school signals the beginning o f the camping season, and by the July Fourth holi day, ai. esti mated 5 mil lion you ng sters from 6 to 16 will be over running 14.000 camps Gay Pauley of all sizes and descriptions, both private and public. It will take 250.000 staff per sonnel to direct all this youth ful energy into the proper chan nels. This statistical look at the cr.mping picture comes from Maxwell Alexander, a practic ing attorney, former camp own er, and executive director of The Association of Private Camps, Inc. Few Tears Natural Alexander, who has been in ramp work for 30 years, said it is only natural for a parent to shed a few tears when John ny heads for camp. ' But some times." he added, "you'd think it was a permanent parting." Alexander believes the camp ing benefits parents almost as much as the children. It eives each a vacation from the other, he said. The parents have a clisnce to "re-evaluate." the child a chance to "develop se curity, to quit treating the par ent as a crutch." "Most children are hanny at camp." said Alexander. "That's why parents often are startled when on their first visit they find the child so busy with ac tivities he has little time for Ihem." Trv By SJaqe He conceded that some child ren do not "take" to camping especially to the long two month period with only a couple of parental visits. He suggested in such cases the parent let the child try camping by stages stay three weeks one summer, four the next. "Don't cram it down his throat." said Alexander. "To the mother worried about placing her child in the hands of 'strangers' for the summer, I would say they are not strang ers. They are substitute parents. Seventy per cent of all camp personnel today is recruited from the ranks of college stud ents, teachers, and principals. And all camps are under regu lation by state health and labor departments."
