Fine for unexpected guests in the small menage, or in a push a member of the family could use It all the time. And Egypt never had the likes oi the sofa-beds that are available today. Well tailored, with smart slender lines of period design, they open out easily into full sized comfortable beds. There are now love seats that open into beds, as well as chairs that stretch out to make amazingly comfortable beds. The in-a-door beds are holding their own, and of course the studio couch that turns into a double bed or two single beds is a hardy perennial. What a far cry are these from the old folding bed of our childhood. Remember those imposing wardrobe- beds, the kind that would start closing up if you got too far.down at the foot of the bed? * * • A White Garden. Helen always looks so pretty at her gardening that it's hard to believe she's so good at the job. But in her flowered housecoat she has the magic touch and could make things grow on a sidewalk I do believe if she really put her hand to it. But hers is no hit or miss effectit's an all white garden which is charming with her red brick house.

Enchanter is declared the most perfect Percheron stallion in America by livestock Helen looks so pretty at her gardening. She's gotten to. be, quite an authority on white flowers for all the Seasons. There's method in her madness. Not only do white flowers look dramatic outside thq house but they're just right for cutting and arranging inside. The living room has pale green walls and light green carpet, furniture covering in the peach-copper- gold-brown family of colors and curtains in gold-colored taffeta that lights up dramatically when the sun streaks through them. So you can see how lovely accents .of white would be here. > The dining room has darker green walls, peach carpet and white ninon curtains made to hang in wide sweeping lines. The wall opposite the windows has a pair of gold brackets that need Helen's white flowers to complete the design of the room. Helen's own bedroom is in yellow with aqua carpet, honey maple furniture, white swiss curtains and spread of white chenille.^Wbite flowers seem to pull this room together and give it just the right style and finish. \ © By Betty Wells.--WNU ServU*.

Grouped Furniture Makes An Effective Arrangement Furniture in the living room should be arranged in groups anc^ not just strewn around the walls. In' even a small living room a better arrangement may be worked out if the furniture is placed in related groups. In a faflfhily where there are children of varying ages and* consequently different interests,;® there can be an arrangement of the, living room furniture which will accommodate the needs of all if it is properly grouped. Remember that many a living room is spoiled by having the furniture lined up all around the walls, with too much space in the center. ;Q : ^ Furnish Living Ro^on te Meet Needs of the Family The living room is primarily a room for the entire family and should be furnished as such. Every member of the family is entitled to his or her own chair. If there are six members in your household your living room is incomplete without six comfortable chairs, with six small tables beside them and enough lamps to give adequate reading light. Living room furniture should be the sort that is easily moved. Chairs should have coasters on them to permit of easy sliding around. ; Judgment of .$10,000 was awarded to Samuel Wenk in Chicago who testified that went into a health club feeling "fine" but came out after a massage with a broke nvertebra. • esutts lhi« tire was ENGINEERED lot jtnd built to gir« you longer.
