From a long- range standpoint, how- ever, there's probably no choice you could make that will prove to be wiser than the one to give ster- ling to the bride. In today's economny, al preclous metals are con- > sidered good investments. The value of silver has, indeed, limbed over the years - but sterling silver fiatware has a lot more going for it than j ust the value of its silver content. is Value increaseS For one -thing, it has the kind of craftsmanship that belongs to an earlier time - the skill and 10v- ing attention that go into so few of the things we buy today. And solid silver flatware, unlike silver bars or ingots, is a possession of great value that's made to be used. It will bring joy to the bride's enter- taining during ail the years of her life. Eventu- ally; it wiil become a famn- ily heirloom that wili be cherished as much for its happy associations with mernorabie occasions as it is for its intrinsic value.

Do's and Don't's -A gu ide to using color Color can work a wonderful transformation in any room - especially when you follow some ofthe basic rules that have been discovered aboutits use. Here are "Color Do's and Don't's" to guide you* DO USE LIGHT COLORS in a small room to create an impression of greater size. DON'T USE TOO MUCH pattern, in any room. This can be distracting and tiring. DO PUT EMPRASIS on warmreds and yellowsin moins that are wndowless or face toward the north- east. DON'T USE BRIGHT COLOR in large areas, as this will detract f rom the furnishings. DO HAVE CONTINUING COLOR flow through the house, and use harmonious colors' in rooms that adj oin. DON'T USE TOO MANY cool blue hues in a north- east roomn or it wil seem to be cooler. DO MIX LIQHT AND DEEP colors in each room. DON'T. USE TOO MUCH red or yellow in a south- west room with large windows, or it will seem warmer. DO PAINT THE CEILINGo0f a room a deeper color than the walls, if it is very high. This makes it appear lower. The reverse is true, cf course, whenyou want a low-ceilinged room seem to have a highceiling. DON'T PAINT GLARING architectural features, such as radiators, to contrast with their background. This will emphasize them. DO REMEMBER COLORS are relative and must be seen together.
