Husbands Now Helping Wives
Select Furnishinqs for Home
By GAY PAULEY
United Press Women's Editor
New York TP Now dad usu
ally helps choose the carpet to
go with the carpet slippers.
An increasing number of hus
bands Join with their wives in
deciding household decorating
schemes, and help shop for new
furniture, draperies and floor
coverings, says Robert Elton,
who for eight years has run the
only National Home Furnishings
how open to the public.
Elton at prenrnt is oversee
ing 80 thousand feet of displays,
from 160 exhibitors, at the an
nual event in the New York
Coliseum.
"At the last show, we found
that 82 per cent of our audience
was married. It no longer is a
case of Pop just paying the bills.
Husbands and- wives shop to
gether . . . many of them bring
their kids to this show. We h.ad
837 children last Sunday."
Couples Seek Ideas
"Some of the couples are look
ing for ideas to put to immedi
ate use," said Elton. "Others are
just doing wishful thinking to
gether."
Elton predicted part of the
wishful thinking concerned in
door-outdoor living.
"We've built much of the show
round that Idea ... it is the
future way of life," he said
Show dining rooms open onto
patios, bedrooms onto courts or
gardens, with the decorating

den or scenic murals. Robert
S. Malkin, a landscape artist,
displayed a "garden for the
small home owner" with ter
racing, a black and white color
scheme and lily pond all in a
36 by 80 foot area.
"Ideal for the city home," said
a show guide.
"What size city," asked a
skeptic who obviously lived in
space-hungry New York.
Blends New Colors
The show indicated that
orange, gold, yellow and white
often all used together are
tfie coming colors. Traditional
furnishings pushed modern into
the background.
"We'll use more antiques,
said Elton. "It is all part of
the new elegance in the home."
Other highlights of the show
Predominance of hand sur
face floor coverings, including
vinyl tile. Usually it is white,
but sometimes is combined with
ceramic inlay in intricate pat
terns.

Experiment With Ham x
Produces Paper Fabric
Dallas OP) A local business
man plans to market by , 1958
a new fabric knitted paper,
which he developed by trying
to get more flavor into smoked
hams.
Ronald H. Marks, vice presi
dent and general manager of
Enterprise, Inc., said the fabric
is in its final stages of develop
ment and there are many things
yet he has to discover about it.
He said as far as he knows
no one ever knitted brown wrap
ping paper before. He said his
"fabric" retards flame, allows
ventilation, cannot be seen
through easily, is strong, holds
its shape, and can be washed
or dry cleaned.
Marks has experimented with
the paper fabric for four years.
He first hit upon it in connection
with smoked hams. His farm
supplies sacks for meat packers
and makes white coats for butchers.
He noted that the cotton bags
generally used to hold hams
hung in smokehoues, did not
let much smoke in. He found
that a wide-knit paper sack was
strong enough to hold the hams
when they were hung and also
let smoke penetrate the meat.
This led to developing several
versions of the weave, which he
has patented, and he found the
paper also could be used for
clothes.
It can be stitched on a regu
lar sewing machine, is crease
resistant, is loose enough to al
low ventilation but it also
opaque.

Parents Urged To Eat
Breakfast With Junior
Washington (IP) Parents:
If you want junior to get a good
breakfast chances are 'at least
one of you will have to get up
early enough to eat with him.
At least that Is the conclusion
of a "breakfast experiment" con
ducted by the Agriculture De
partment's Pennsylvania experi
ment station.
"Over a fourth of the chil
dren in the survey got their own
breakfasts and their breakfast
record was poor," the depart
ment reported. "When adults
supervised or ate breakfast with
the children, the children gen
erally ate better."
