Practical beauty for Porches Decorators are ever talking "keynote" as if furnishing were a concrete or symphony. And there is a relation, a very close one, between color harmony and music, composed of stress, rhythm and tone value. For porches, the keynote is beauty, the stress is on comfort, the rhythm and tone value varying according to taste. Porches indoors—that is, roofed and glassed, porches out doors, terraces and loggias too, furnish separate types of problems for solution. Upholstered pieces are comfortable for porches under roof, while open-to-the-sun furniture must needs be weather-proof. Was it Mark Twain who said, "A great deal is always said about the weather but nothing is ever done about it?" One must do something about it if one is furnishing a terrace or other open air living room. Favor Reed and Wicker Thought turns quickly to reed, fibre and wicker furniture for porches. Besides the ordinary chairs and rockers, with a davenport to match, one finds a number of other pieces of great interest. A foot rest of more than usual size, with an upholstered cushion can be so placed with a straight chair as to form a luxurious chaise lounge. Tea time suggests tables, usually with plain wood top, and graceful either in ovals or circles. A drop-leaf tea cart is another handy of food reminds us of many charming painted pieces for the meals to be served in the open. A drop leaf table is a general favorite, and can be so interesting in shape when the leaves are up. Table runners and mats on the gayly colored surface, pottery or flower-sprigged china, bits of colored glass, all combined make good food twice as delicious. Chairs of Windsor Type Chairs to match come in many Windsor types, or, with ladder backs. A serving table belongs to every set now, and sometimes a dresser with shelves for the display of china. Natural wood finish in mahogany or walnut makes a more quiet set, but it has a quality of reserve that is very fitting for some porches. Aquariums, too, have handsome wrought iron stands. Flower holders are somewhat similar. These also may be suspended by chains. A black glass top or black and gold table of wrought iron with either a marble can add a dignified touch to the loggia. Out-door porches and terrraces may be furnished with any of the furniture described if it is taken in, when the rain comes. Hickory pieces can stand the weather fairly well, and stone furniture still better. Stone, however, really belongs to the garden proper. Chinese Lanterns Favored Smartness is not so much a matter of fabric and color—rather it a subtle something that the master designers, by their creat ing imaginations, evolve from fa rcle and cloor. To be smart is know how to choose from an ove whelming display those garmen which somehow not alone decla themselves smart, but smart you—that were created for your particular type. P. I. CAPTAIN COMES SAN FRANCISCO, March 24. Captain Thomas J. Hanley, we recently arrived in the United States from the Philippines. Thought turns quickly to reed, fibre and wicker furniture for porches. Besides the ordinary chairs and rockers, with a davenport to match, one finds a number of other pieces of great interest. A foot rest of more than usual size, with an upholstered cushion can be so placed with a straight chair as to form a luxurious chaire lounge. Tea time suggests tables, usually with plain wood top, and graceful either in ovals or circles. A drop-leaf tea cart is another happy idea—no one wants to go indoors at tea-time, and such a conveyance will bring all the accoutrements of the tea service, one's hand, as it were. A desk is another pleasant addition to the practical beauty of one's plaza. Or do plazzas grow only in the South? Chinese Lanterns Favored Lighting the porch is a proposition affording opportunity to display one's originality. Great Chinese lanterns are very effective and can be used anywhere on the roofed porch. Brass lanterns can be fastened to the wall, or those wrought of iron. Electric sockets are a great addition to Balmy Spring Bree Reveal Smart New New straw weaves are evident in these smart hats and Bangkok is again a favorite. Some are embroidered in heavy threads.

Center Street BUTTONS TO URGE WOMEN TO VOTE When the delegates to the Biennial Convention of the General Federation of Women's Clubs assembled in Los Angeles, June 3-13, hundreds will wear a blue bordered button bearing the words, "I vote. Do you?" Thus the great national organization, which is steadfastly non-partisan, takes cognizance of the indifference of persons to their first duty as citizens and seeks to impress upon all club women the importance of casting their ballots in the coming national election. In 1920 less than 50 per cent of the electorate of the nation took the trouble to express at the polls an interest in the choice of a head for the United States government. When the shocking facts regarding the small proportion of votes cast in the various states were published, public spirited women immediately began to work for the necessary reforms by which a representative vote may be assured. The League of Women Voters has pledged itself to do all possible to assure at least 75 per cent of the registered vote in 1924 and other organizations are working to arouse the citizen conscience to a sense of great responsibility and high privilege. The "I vote. Do you?" buttons should be worn not alone by women, but if the reminder they carry for all who behold them has any effect it will do much good. A few thousand women can influence millions of voters. The Biennial program will stress the larger interests of life and will emphasize the wider human relations which make every citizen answerable for governmental corruption or lack of efficiency.
