Young To be 70 years young is some times far more cheerful and hope ful than to be 40 years old. "It requires about twoâ€"andâ€"aâ€" half times the average annual salary to buy a home today whereas it took about 2.6 times the average annual income to purchase a house 10 years ago." However, it is easier now for the average famsly to own a bigger, better home for less money than it was 10 years ago. Walton explained: the averâ€" age price of single detached houses financed under the Naâ€" tional Housing Act increased 26 per cent in the last 10 years from $12,400 in 1954 to $15,600 t the end of 1963. Incomes of borrowers (applicants or purâ€" chasers only â€" not family) unâ€" der NHA have risen 33 per cent from an average of $4,800 in 1953 to $6,300 in 1962 "Houses are selling like mad and fewer properties are listed for sale. These supply and deâ€" mand factors are more likely to be reflected in a general price increase rather than a market slowdown," Walton says. "And there is no slowdown in sight," according to Toronto Real Estate Board President R. G. Walton. "In fact latest statisâ€" ties show an acceleration in the frantic pace at which people are buying and selling homes!" Colours that are so deep and vivid that they might have been distilled from rubies, sapphires and emeralds are indicative of the current Spanish influence. Fiery reds team with black and black and white or black and brown to reflect the growing popularity of the strong tones that are reminiscent of Madrid, Barcelona or Seville. From southâ€" ern Spain, where the Iberian penâ€" insula is washed by the Mediterâ€" ranean, come the blueâ€"greens of the sea with the golds and yelâ€" ‘"The white, off â€" whites and beiges are seldom sold now", Mr. Winson said. "‘The home decoraâ€" tor today is looking for the glowâ€" ing, darker shades that make subtle colours look bright and ‘bright colours look even livelier." Real estate records were shatâ€" tered like clay pigeons when the first quarter of 1964 enterâ€" ed the pages of economic hisâ€" tory. Electric, vibrant reds, oranges and hot pinks from the Mediterâ€" ranean, once considered daring, are now being used to brighten the bride‘s first apartment, or to provide a bold, new background for the matron‘s treasured furniâ€" ture, lows of the sun, some as solid colours and some as handsome new sparkling prints. Not all of this movement away from the softer hues is attributâ€" able to the Spanish influence which originated in the United States. Rather, the young wife is tending to choose colours that she likes, colours that suit her personality. "Canadian woman, at least the ones that I have sold to for fifteen years", Mr. Winson said, "are not overly concerned with trends, nor are they conâ€" cerned with whether their colour schemes are ‘in‘, so long as they are happy with the effect. But both the city and the suburban customers are beginning to exâ€" periment with new and exciting ways to use and combine colâ€" "Suburban women are not colourâ€"shy", declares the owner lof the city‘s newest drapery store, Ross Winson of Kingsway Drapâ€" Wages Rose Higher Than Home Prices A logical development is that Using Border Colours In Interior Decorating the shopper is not content with just buying drapery fabric from a salesman. She wants to discuss her purchase to be sure that it fits in with her basic plan. Toâ€" day, more than ever, fabric is being used in many ways, even as wall coverings. To aid the customer in making the proper selection of fabric weight, texâ€" ture, colour, and choice of print, stripe, tartans or solids, the drapâ€" ery supplier must be a part of her decorating team. "The idea of having your whole home planned for you by an interior decorator is diminishâ€" ing. The client today wishes to express her own personality, but is seeking guidance through the maze of all the exciting fabrics and colours that are offered for sale. The drapery store must provide decorating counsel, good service, excellent workmanship as well as a diverse line of maâ€" terials and designs, if the client is to be really wellâ€"served and happy with her selections."
