Then paint a set of four tables to match the chairs â€"four colours, of course. This bridge unit would be terribly effective with natural rattan> furniture, white curâ€" tains and a black linoleum floor. The nest of tables?

If she‘s at an age where a roomâ€"ofâ€"herâ€" veryâ€"own is beginning to loom large in bher scheme of things, you can assemble odds and ends of this and that and, with an intelligent paint job, please even the most finicky and demanding of daughters. How about painting all the furniture a greyed green and havâ€" ing the walls papered in a small patâ€" terned design: against dusty pink. French grey furniture against dusty pink walls is nice too. Or if she‘s litâ€" tle and cherubic, why not a peasanty background? Here the paint brush will work overtime, not only covering the various pieces in colour but adding stencils as well. Try pale green wells, windows trimmed gaily with a Tyroâ€" lean patterned chintz. Enlarge the pattern in the design of the chintz (by tracing it and then "blowing it up" by squaring it off) and make a stencil of burgundy chair with jade green . . . that‘s what we mean. Hussies! Naturally if your living room is forâ€" mal as all get out, you won‘t want such painted pieces (hussies?) aroundâ€"but. if your room is like so many others, a pleasant combination of this and that acquired through years of family living, a bangâ€"up paint job on some of the less inviting pieces will add dash and the touch of sophistication that most ladies demand these days. So much well designed furniture is available in the unpainted state nowaâ€" days that it dces seem a shame that more . ladiesâ€"onâ€"aâ€"budget don‘t avail themselves of a golden opportunity.

Review of the Weather As noted in the temperature reports tli>r maximum, minimum â€" andâ€" mean temperatures although not the highest on record, were well above the averazge, and the month just passed has been ~mn> of the warmest Junes on record; a feature worth noting is the fact that there were no frosts during the month; on or two mornings there were cool heavy dews but it is quite unusual not to get som»e kind of a light frost espeâ€" clally at the beginning of June. Horâ€" ticulturists have certainly nothing to complain about this year regarding June frosts., Rainfall over the past month has cen exceptionally heavy and three new records have been established for Jung. The heaviest single rainfall on record fell on the 18th, when a terrific thunderstorm occurred, with very vivic lightning and a deluge of rain lasting approximately 1% hours and recording 2% inches of rainfall; widespread damage was caused by this deluge and considerable inconvenience to the varâ€" ious mines and municipal works deâ€" partments in the district.

C. Wheeler. of Hollinger weather obseratory. One of the chief factors in the unusual amount of rainfall was the deluge that flocded the Timmins area on June 18 to a depth of 2% inches. The previcus record was in 1928 when 4.40 inches was recorded.
