‘Streidiing' A Room
MIRROR MAGIC adds illusion of spaciousness.

CHICAGO—Ideas for furnishing a house in a way that will make
it appear more spacious as well as attractive were featured at the
winter furniture show here.
This was done in many exhibits by using full windows and massive
mirrors. Floor coverings were extended the full size of the room. Low
chairs were used to create an illusion of height. Novel pastel color
combinations played their part, too, in “stretching” a house.
Such was an exhibit created by Mabel Schamberg of Chicago and
Dorothy Draper of New- York. Their exhibit exemplified the dramatic
and individual touches given to many modern designs.
Ebony-finished bookcases and a Honduras mahogany cocktail table
with a black glass top set before a sofa slipcovered in green and white
striped material with a huge mirror above the lounge was an example
of their idea of homefurnishing.
FIGURES on sources of the
1945 U. S. farm dollar are
from American Meat Institute
tabulations of Government
figures. About 4% govern*
ment payments excluded.

Of the 32,000,000 British men
and women of working age, 22,
000,000 were in the armed forces
or industry by mid-1944.
Printing was done first upon
skins and fabrics, and later upon
linen, papyrus, parchment and
hand-made papers.
