ALMA BIGELOW SPEAKS AT WOMAN‘S CIVIC CLUB rounding woodland, was a fitting setâ€" ting for the program of the Woman‘s Civic club given by Alma Bigelow. Miss Bigelow is one of the few women of the world who has won disâ€" tinction in the field of design and inâ€" terior decoration. ‘She is wellâ€"known as the creative ‘artist who designed and executed the beautiful panels in one of the churches at Pontime, Mich., and at Marquette. She is also interior decorator and designer for the Tobey Furniture company. y | Miss Bigelow is one of the artists, whose home is in Ravinia, of whom the community is justly proud. She handled her subject, the "Growth of Interior Decorating, its Weeds and its Flowers," in a fascinating manner, giving the background leading up to the recently recognized art of today, now known as interior decoration. It is a‘sign of the times, a leveling of class. There is a turning to the sinâ€" gle styles such as the early.American and French provincial. It has taken time to get people ‘used to paneling and light colors. : "Design counts most in selection," says Miss Bigelow. The decoration of a church is especially fascinating beâ€" cause of the inner meaning to be exâ€" pressed. The decoration of public buildings has become a specialty for some firms. Miss Bigelow‘s talk was preceded by a charming group of Swedish songs beautifully sung by Mrs. Edâ€" ward Christenson, accompanied by Mrs. Harvey Pardee. ; wWOMEN VOTERS BOARD IS IN SESSION HERE The board of the National League of Women Voters is holding sessions this week at the Moraine hotel in "‘The greatest success in interior decoration is achieved through simâ€" plicity with some well chosen, sincere adornment. Jt will take time and education to bring about a recogniâ€" tion of the fine decoration as opposed to the ignorant."
