Sentimental and Art Values in the They Start At The Very Beginning Of By Edward H. Hall We promised to treat of the four values in home decoration in its own article. Namely: The sentimental value, the art value, the commercial value and the moral value. First, the sentimental value. Some one has said that "Home is a place where you have the greatest privileges and can do the most grumbling." That, however, is not the light in which we desire to treat the subject in this article, but rather let us think of its functioning as the happiest place on earth. An haven if not a complete heaven. To illustrate just what is meant by the sentimental value will perhaps give a clear idea. Suppose your son or daughter had painted a picture and you take it to an authority to inquire as to its value. If this judge is an artist or dealer he will use a little diplomacy and ask who painted it, because he knows well that you value it far beyond its art or commercial worth. You have given it the sentimental value. It means more to you than it does to a buyer or a collector. Into home decoration the sentimental enters rather disproportionately large. The very word "home" calls up in most of our minds feelings of sentiment, and we say with Max Ehrmann: "Whoe'er thou art that entereth here, Forget the struggling world And every trembling fear. Take from the heart each evil thought And all that selfishness Within thy life has wrought. For once inside this place thou'lt Into home decoration the sentimental enters rather disproportionately large, and it is absolutely essential in the home building. simply because it was made a hundred years ago.

Li plot to your st "Whoe'er thou art that entereth here, Forget the struggling world And every trembling fear. Take from the heart each evil thought And all that selfishness Within thy life has wrought. For once, inside this place thou'lt find No barter, servants fear Nor Master's voice unkind. Here all are kin of God above— Thou, too, dear heart; and here The rule of life is love." This is the sentiment we hope for when we speak or think of home. It is what every true wife and mother wants her home and the home of her husband and children to be. It is entirely opposite to the feeling that was expressed by the boy who went home cold and hungry, found the house all littered up, the dishes unwashed, and the mother away for the fourth time that week. Poor, lonely, cold little Johnnie looked around and his eye caught sight of the motto above the door: "There is no place like home," and he exclaimed, "Thank God." Sentiment in the Home There should be a strong sentimental value to every home and to its contents, and the true decorator will endeavor to place upon this value its true worth. Sentiment starts at the very beginning of the building of the house. You planned this line, that window or the fireplace together. Then the furnishings, that chair was grandmother's, this one was mother's and so on through the house, pictures, bric-a-brac, etc., some of which have decorative value if placed in the right scheme. What the decorator asks is that you have courage enough not to be carried away with fads which insist that you ruthlessly destroy, or arbitrarily keep these things of sentiment but to put them in the room where they best conform in design, color and purpose. If they are bad, positively bad, really wickedly bad then put them in the furnace. There is no argument in keeping a bad piece of furniture. Into home decoration the sentimental enters rather disproportionately large, and it is absolutely essential in the home building. simply because it was made a hundred years ago. Morris' advice, so often quoted, is "to have those things that are useful or that you believe to be beautiful." However, do not ruthlessly throw away things that are but partly bad. If the design and workmanship is good and the color bad, then change the color. Do not throw them away because they are not just as you would have them, for very often you can re-upholster or give them a cushion or two and they will greatly help to make that homy atmosphere that is so much to be desired. The second value is the art value, an exceedingly important one, undoubtedly the most important value to be considered. This value can only be determined by recognized standards worked out and agreed upon by capable authorities. It concerns the architecture of the house, the furnishing of the various rooms, the color of the walls and ceilings, the woodwork, draperies, rugs, etc., also the arrangement of the colors and the texture, viz: the surface of the material to be used in your decorative scheme. It embraces the designs and the grouping of the same, the motifs used in the different rooms, the proportions, dimensions, climax and it insists on balance. Now to be able to give the true art setting to home decoration requires technical and practical knowledge and is where the advice of the decorator is of value. It is also the reason why the better decorative shops have a consulting department where you can without cost get important expert advice to assist you in solving your problems. The time is not far distant when thorough courses will be given in the schools. I say thorough courses, practical as well as theoretical. This will come when we have more women on our school boards, because they know the value of such knowledge to our young people. That household decoration plays no insignificant part in the development of your decorative scheme. The art in decor character of a new individual, for images we find and way the people lines, sharp angles of the early Eg. B.C. we find his savagery.

HER AILMENTS ALL GONE NOW Mrs. Sherman Helped by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Lake, Michigan.—"About one year ago I suffered with irregularities and a weakness and at times was obliged to stay off my feet. I doctored with our family physician and he finally said he could not understand my case, so I decided to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. After I had taken the first bottle I could see that I was getting better. I took several bottles of the Vegetable Compound and used Lydia E. Pinkham's Sanative Wash and I am entirely cured of my ailments. You may publish this letter if you wish."—Mrs. MARY SHERMAN, Route 2, Lake, Mich. There is one fact women should consider and that is this. Women suffer from irregularities and various forms of weakness. They try this and that doctor, as well as different medicines. Finally they take Lydia E. Pinkham's Compound, and Mrs. Sherman's experience is simply another case showing the merit of this well-known medicine. If your family physician fails to help you and the same old troubles persist, isn't it reasonable to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound? THE WOMAN'S PAGE OF THE PLAIN DEALER, AUGUST 31, 1922 Values in Interior Decoration Beginning Of The Home Building ment of the national life has been board of education in a very prac-recognized by New York City's tical way. Some time ago there was added to the department of home economics of the public school system a course of study covering household decoration. The work is under the direction of a staff of teachers of the household arts department, and though in operation but a few years it has already demonstrated that the movement is a step in the right direction. It has been recognized by the school authorities that the matter of correct and sensible home furnishings is not so much a matter of monetary expenditure as it is a question of wise choosing and appreciation of good form and the harmony of related color and design. The teachers are given a three-year course which instruction they in turn pass on to their pupils. In the decoration of the home consider each room for its object and always let your lighting be a part of your plan. Get your lights in your closets where you can see to find things; at your dressing table, where you can see to dress, but give a dim, soft glow for the rest corners; give us shadows where they make repose. Throw interest. Should it be the frieze the lights on the points of decorative show it. If the pictures are the climax, show them. Don't leave them dead with low lights. See the clistax. Feel the repose. Don't forget that the room that has no climax has no definite object, or that the room with no restful corners has no welcome. Like writing, have a plot to your story in decoration. SURPRISE SHOWER AT JACQUES HOME FOR BRIDE-TO-BE To compliment Miss Jean Knapp, who is soon to become the bride of Mr. Grandville Lawless of Fellows, Cal., Miss Irene Jacques entertained with a miscellaneous surprise shower in her homo at the Jacques home, 124 Janss-at., yesterday afternoon. Although her home is in Los Angeles, Miss Knapp has been teaching at Fellows for two years. She will be remembered by many of the Anaheim young folk as she taught at the Kateella School two years ago, residing on E. Broadway, Anaheim. The afternoon was pleasantly passed with music and games. All were greatly surprised to find Misses Elizabeth Mott and Miss Cuba Carner enter the room carrying a huge recepticle in the shape of a pink rose. The girls laid this in front of the honoree and she found it to contain many dainty and useful gifts which will be given a place of honor in her new home. Miss Jacques invited her guests into the dining room, where they found their places around a table that was most prettily trimmed with pink flowers, favors and nut baskets.
