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. ' .
Paper manufacturers at a
recent convention said that to
day, the American housewife
.can hang her wash on a paper
clothesline that will last for
years. She can carry home gro
ceries in a bag that can be
converted into a sailing toy
for Junior. And tomorrow, she
may even live in a paper
house.
One of the newest develop
ments in the field is a twisted,
knitted paper which can be
boiled, washed or dry-cleaned
and reused as many as 30
times.

The U.S. Department of
Agriculture said that sales of
sour cream, are soaring - a
jump from 73 million pounds
in 1857 to 100 million in lass.

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.
