Family Portraits In, Style Again Chicago (UP It's back in style to hang family portraits on the wall if they re framed like oil paintings and artisti cally grouped on a "picture wall." . . Decorators start such a wall with oversize portraits, fram ed as a group. For a touch of whimsy, consider using elabo rate period frames in contem porary rooms. And ask for the new, almost invisible, glare- proof glass, now widely used to protect wall-hung portraits against dust and dampness. The best way to arrange portraits depends on the wall selected for them. Popular choices include master bed room, family room and hall way walls. . .. If the wall selected' needs extra lighting, -it can take such forms as over-the-plcture re flectors, ' mantel reflectors, spot lights and lighted picture frames. Once the wall Is selected and properly lit. it's a good idea to lay the framed photo graphs on the floor and shove them around to determine the best way of arranging them. , Some decorators advise grouping them in an imagi nary rectangle. Others suggest flanking a hall mirror with portraits or hanging them from a family' tree painted on the wall, or combining por traits and hanging sculpture. For the growing family, it's a practical idea to mat and frame portraits in a rainbow of colors and hang them on white hardboird that's perfo rated like & pegboard to. ac commodate more pictures as they come. . ' "Paper Age" Brings New Developments New York - IUPD - One day, historians may refer to this as the Paper Age as well as the Atom Age. ' .

In Order to Better Serve You NORGE LAUNDRY & CLEANING VILLAGE Corner 13th and South Central Today's Hats Inspired By Those From History By GAY PAULEY , UPI Women"! Editor New York - A milliner made your Easter bonnet In 1961 but her inspiration was old hat For spring hats, although new as today, like other cloth ing styles hearken to the past. Take for instance those doll- size hats for grown-up dolls which are a big item this Spring. They also were the fashion in the late 1930's, and in the Civil War 1860's. The deep pillbox, a favorite with Mrs. John F. Kennedy, can ba traced through the cen turies to the Turkish fez, to Nepal where shallower ver sions once were part of the native costume for men, or to Portugal where the shape was also traditional garb. Historical Hats A look at hats through his tory is possible with a visit to the costume institute of tha New York Metropolitan Mu seum of Art. , . . , There, Polaire Weissman and her staff' have assembled literally thousands of hats rep resenting various periods in style. ' , A look through them shows what Miss Weissman, the in stitute's executive director, maintains - that "nothing is new. Always elements of the past can be found in the pres ent. .But it is what we, do with the old that counts. . . How we translate it to our way of life today." Some of the hats need no modernization to walk into to morrow's Easter parade. One hat preserved from 1913 is a pale lilac straw covered en tirely with lilacs and pale pink and white iris. Its tall, round ed crown and tiny brim are as much 1961 as all the other new flower-covered chapeaux. An 1860's Breton, with its off-the-face brim, needs only a fresh ribbon to go to church tomorrow. '., Some Perennials The wide-brimmed sailors, a perennial each spring, can be traced at least to 1900 when the Gibson girl pinned yellow leghorn straws atop primmed versions lor wear with suits arrived about the same time. The cloche, with its helmet shape, has been in and out of fashion at least since the 1920's. Some versions in the institute collection from that era are just as good today. The same holds true for some of the slouch shapes popular ized by Garbo and Dietrich. And those huge, face-hiding hats which were fashionable a few seasons ago can be found also at the turn of the century in "motoring" hats shaped like upside-down flow er pots. I Miss Weissman said ostrich plumes trim seemed to be about the only trend in mill inery to disappear and not re turn. Bonnet shapes also are gone from the adult wear temporarily. But they're still her . pompadour. Narrower- going strong with little girls. Council Meeting v For Saleswomen A meeting for saleswomen is planned by the Christian' .
