Basic Rules In Color Matching You Must Follow Them If You Intend To Do Your Own Interior Decorating As a guide to those who prefer to do their interior decorating in the fall a set of basic rules for color matching has been issued by a housing authority. Although most homeowners do their redecorating in the spring a good many like to do it just before the cold fall sea- son. The rules are basic, so much bo that they apply regardless of color preferences. The recommen- dations are as follows: 1. Gool colors such as greens, blues and greys are light, airy and restful, and generally should be ap- plied to rooms with southern ex- posure getting a generous supply of sunlight. 2. Warm, colors such as yellow, orange and the various tones of red are generally most successful in rooms with northern exposure. Make Small Room Larger 3. Strong colors such as red, or- ange, dark blue, make a large room look smaller. Small rooms appear larger when light colors are used. 4. Avoid using strong colors on large surfaces. 5. Color affects lighting; lighter colors reflect more light than dark- er colors. 6. At least three colors are con- sidered necessary to make a room interesting. The light color is used on the ceiling. 7. Dark color on a ceiling makes a ceiling seem lower; light color makes the ceiling seem higher. 8. Usually the floor should, be the darkest area in the room, giving the effect of a firm foundation. Falling' Glass Hits Women LONDON, Ont.â€"Showered with broken glass when a second-storey window at the . Original’s Club was mysteri- ously shattered, a number of women who were passing 104 Dundas street at the time, es- caped without injury. Two women were almost immediately below the win- dow when it broke, but man- aged to run to safety when they heard the crash. They and others standing nearby were showered with small fragments of glass. Officials of the club could give no explanation for the breaking of the pane. They said that no one had been in the room for several hours and no missile could be fôund when the room was searched. Fashion Features Bloused Effects Lumber Jackets Popular; Arm- holes Are Wider PARIS.â€"New Paris sports cos- tumes, like those for tailored wear, are Independent of other style trends, adopting only those ele- ments that are both practical and smart. Bloused effects lend a new silhouette to many winter outfits. Lumber jackets, always sports fa- vorites, are more popular than ever and tlieir bloused fullness is intro- duced into many dresses, sweaters, coats and longer jackets' for both active and spectator sports wear. Armholes are growing ever wider. Dolman or out-and-out kimono sleeves appear even on heavy tweed sports coats and jackets. However, their cut has been carefully studied and gores and gussets cunningly placed to allow complete freedom of movement to the arms. Goose Woman by REX BEACH SYNOPSIS; Amos Ethridge is found murdered in a country lane with a crude cross of twigs on his breast and a scented sheet of note paper in his pocket. He was the richest man in the state with power and influence enough to make him- self candidate for Governor. With his death came hints of an unsav- ory private life, of wronged women and betrayed husbands and fath- ers who had reason to wish him dead. There was also a powerful secret political organization oppos- ed to him . . . Mary Holmes, called "the goose woman†by news- paper reporters, lives nearest the scene of the crime on a small chicken farm where she ekes out a poor living and tries to find in drink the forgetfulness of past glories when she was Maria di Nardi, world-renowned opera singer . . Gerald Holmes, a talented , young artisf, is hated and loved by his mother who is embittered because his birth caused the loss of her voice and wrecked her operatic ca- reer. He has been befriended by the murdered Ethridge, and is en- gaged to another of Amos Eth- ridge’s proteges . . . Hazel Woods, lovely and brilliant young actress, has been helped to success by Ethridge. She lives in a small cottage owned by Ethridge . . . Jacob Riggs, eccentric old-time ac- tor, now a doorman at the theatre where Hazel Woods is playing, has appointed himself her guardian and lives in a room over her garage. CHAPTER X It seemed to him that Hazel had never appeared so lovely as when she snapped on the lights in her hall, dropped her light wrap, and turned to him with shining eyes, Her lips were parted, her face was eager; she held out her bare arnjs. It was a joyous, impulsive gesture of surrender; her look, her atti- tude, was one of complete abandon. She melted into his embrace, warm, fragrant, throbbing; her lips clung to his and he could feel her trem- ble in response to his ardor. After a1 while the girl withdrew herself, then, flushed and smiling mistily, she disappeared into the dining room. Gerald slowly filled his lungs. He came out of his ecs- tacy when he heard her in the pan- try, and he followed, volunteering to lend a hand. But she laughing- ly refused his aid.

While.the girl came and went, Gerald talked, answered lier breathless interruptions, inter- rupted her. He watched her with adoring eyes. When she passed his chair he detained her long enough for a caress, and when she finally succeeded, despite his interference, in setting the table, he drew two chairs up side by side. Probably they ate something, but neither of them could have told What it was. Distressing Secret Hazel was indeed a different girl from what she had ever been be- fore. During liis absence her love, it appeared, had suddenly burst from the bud into full bloom. The miracle would have made Jerry completely happy except for that hideous thing in the back of his mind. He tried his best not to think of it, but. it would not be ig- nored; the more openly in word and deed this girl confessed her love, the more his secret distressed him. "What ails you, dear?†she asked him finally. "You're in trouble of some sort.†He hesitated, then lie broke out: "Yes, I amâ€"-frightful trouble!†In- stantly Hazel's hand closed over his, concern leaped into her eyes; her tone changed as she urged him to tell her what it was. ‘‘I suppose I must tell you, butâ€"- it’s like cutting my own throat.†"Why, Jerry!†“1 swore I wouldn’t, couldn'tâ€" and all the time I knew I'd have to. Tonight, of all nights!†He shook his head and groaned. The girl eyed him in growing al- arm. She had become quite pale when she inquired: ‘‘Is it some- thing about us? You don’t want to â€"marry me?†"Oh, nothing like that. I haven’t done anything, either.†“Then it can’t matterâ€"†‘‘Wait! I drove out to see my mother this evening about the Eth- ridge -case.†‘‘Ob, please don’t!†Hazel cried, sharply. "Please don’t let’s talk about that. I cant bear toâ€"to hear it mentioned.†".I’ve 'got to talk about It. You see, 1 knew how she must feel about the way those reporters had treated , her, and I was afraid it would set her to drinking againâ€" afraid she might say something or do something to make matters worse. You’ve been awfully sweet about her, Hazel. Not one girl in a million would have been so charit- able." “She isn’t the only woman in the Narrow Line In Skirts In contrast with bloused tops, many sports skirts: maintain a narrow line.

I suppose she must have some ma- ternal affection for me, somewhere, but she succeeds in concealing it mighty well. It was the same as usual tonight. We had a terrible row. She broke out finally and told me how she hated me and why: told me why she had always stood in my way and tried to strangle whatever talent I had. Oh, it was â€"hideous. : . . You’re the only person to whom I shall ever reveal what she told me: I’ve got to tell you, no matter what. the conse- quences.†Gerald repeated in a few short sentences the story he had heard from his mother’s lips. It was not a pretty story; he made no effort to soften it. ‘‘Imagine hearing a tiling like that fromâ€"your mothfer! I try to tell myself it’s a nightmare; that slie didn’t say anything of the sort or that .she was lying. But she wasn’t lying. Worst of all, she confessed casually, without the slightest feeling, that she had been â€"bad ! That’s the hardest to bear. She was a bad, a guilty woman! I â€"don’t feel as if I could ever look anybody in the eye,s again.†He dropped his head into his hands. Hazel rose and crossed the room to a window. -She stood there star- ing out into the blackness for some time. Jerry raised eyes, bleak with suffering, dark with apprehension; after a while he got heavily to his feet. “I can’t blame you,†lie said, hus- kily. “She said no nice girl would marry me. T dare say no nice girl could marry me. I feel like a crim- inal ’to hurt you, butâ€"I was des- perate, I snatched at an hour of happiness. Iâ€"†He choked, then he made blindly for the hall. Hazel turned, ran after him, drew him back to the couch upon which they had been sitting. “You poor boy!†she exclaimed. When she tenderly piit her arms about him a wave of relief swept over him; lie completely lost control of himself and gave way to his grief. He liid his face upon her shoulder. Like a mother she comforted him. “Noth- ing is going to make any difference with me, so long as you love me. She told you that no nice girl would have you and you believed her, did you? You foolish, sensitive Jerry! mwYOU CAM OF course, you have no men friends if you've let yourself become dull, cross, and nervqus.
