Woman‘s Club To Visit ‘ Art Institute When Mrs. Thorne was in Rome ten years ago" she happened to s¢e two exquisite Venetian silver chandeliers of doll house size lying on the showâ€" cease in an antique shop. She wasâ€" so entranced that she purchased them imâ€" mediately and before her trip was over she had filled two trunks with these little miniatures. Thas was the beginâ€" ning of the hobby that has gained famefor)ln‘rbmedfloverthe worldâ€"the reâ€"treating . of authentic period rooms in miniature, true to scale andz:lfectinevery’ detail. Today she has little rooms on display in eastern museums, in London and on the west coast as well as in Art Institute in Chicago. £ After viewing these famous rooms, the club members will go to the planeâ€" tarium for a short visit, have luncheon in the loop then spend the afternoon at the Lighting Institute in the Civic Opera Building. This demonstration at the Lighting Institute is ‘very worth while. It not only teaches proper lighting but the beauty of different lighting effects. The ‘housekecper of the future can change her interior decoration by pushing a button which changes the color scheme and thus makes her furnishings apear new. Mrs. Thorne has done a great deal more than merely assemble the approâ€" priate furnishings for these . rooms. She is an artist by nature and has created~ that intangible quality, atmoâ€" sphere, and feeling of place, which, coupled with an artistic color sense and regard for exactness of scale and proportion, make each one of these period interiors a work of art. So many thousands have visited Mrs. James Ward Thorne‘s ‘miniature rooms at Art Institute in the past few months that the* Education Committee of the Highland Park Woman‘s has chartered a bus for Friday, Ocâ€" tober 24th to take club members‘ to view these rooms. The group of rooms that club memâ€" bers will see on Friday is American, many of which are replicas of rooms in histric houses of old New England, the anteâ€"bellum south and the Spanish west. Others are important in the evoâ€" lution of American interior design. All are important pieces of Americana. An amazing achievement is the acquirâ€" ing of actual paintings and pieces of sculpture in miniature. In the Ameriâ€" can rooms these are executed by American painters and sculptors while the tiny repicas of books are in many instances written by the famous auâ€" thors themselves. Mrs. Thorne does the actual assemâ€" bling herself. She paints, palers, marâ€" bleizes, and upholsters, often working with a magnifying glass and tweezers. She learned wood carving so she could make tiny pieces of furniture and the petit point that covers the chairs is her handwork. At 2:00 p.m. this same day, the Garâ€" den Class of the woman‘s Club will meet at the clubhouse to hear Mr. J. Burdett speak on "The American Tulip Industry". He will illustrate his lecture with colored slides showing the vast fields of tulips in Portland Oreâ€" gon.
