For Wear and., Tear Colonial maple is another good idea for a younsg room, for this furniture :s informaA enocugh for the room in its early years, yet apprcpriate for a more mature room also. Then too it can takeâ€"an awwful lot of wear and tear. Provintial furniture of various types has these same qualifications, particuâ€" larly French provincial pieces of the simpler types. Such styles as Siwedish, Swiss or Tyrolean peasant furniture are amusing to improvise out of handâ€"meâ€" down pieces or homeâ€"made builtâ€"in Jobs. If your child is a gentle and resâ€" trained soul, you might venture to begin a collection of walnut or mahogany furniture in a period design. There are several groups of children‘s furniture desizgned for babyhood but with the main pieces convertisle. for older useâ€"often by very ingenious deâ€" vices. The advantages of these pieces is that they‘re specially braced so as not to tip over and of course all the edges and corners are rounded. Besides, being planned for a child to manipulate without help. Paint finishes are free from any injurious materials and are very bright and gay and young, They Unles you just want to indulge yourâ€" self in an orgy of cuteness, better not invest too heavily in nursery furniture that will.be outgrown you know it, You‘ll need a. crip> of â€"course,, but skip the bassinette if you can bearit. And a small chair is a comfortable convenience,. Otherwise, all the furniâ€" ture that you buy to begin can be selâ€" ected with a view to growing up with Its young owner. The small table will do as a bedside table or a lamp table or eventually as a coffee taible. Unit chests or bockshelves, combined at first for very youthful duty, can later be put tegether in other older ways. Modern unit furniture is the most versatile of all for children‘s rooms because it is so amenga‘ble ts changs. In either natural waxed finish or painted, this furniture is attractive and suitable as woell as practical. Ci‘ten this isn‘t poss‘‘Y‘s, but lots of times it would dbe with a little fineâ€" agling. A friend of ours provided separate rooms for her two small chilâ€" daren by simply having an inexpensive partition of plyboard built to divide one medium sized room into two small rooms. By jogzingzg the partition she worked in a couch nitch on one side side and a closet on the other. A relative of cours partitioned off the sleeping porch with compo board into four small but private rooms for her youngsters, while many households can stretch the house by finishing of and insulating the attic. Beée that as it may, the fact is that children 6f today are at least more pleasure than they were in other genâ€" erations. Partly because they‘re healthâ€" ler, partly because we don‘t have so many of them â€"and therefore have breathing space to enjoy those we have £0o much more. And we‘d venture a lot on the idea that both children and parents find life a lot more satisfaztory when each young fry has a rsom of his own. Aifter all, a child is as much of an individual as an adult, and everybody knows what a room of cn° s own means to a grownâ€"up. It remains to be present generation 0o really superior they‘re taller and mo to vitamins and al ing to pedagzozical th te better adjusted t with more serenity, 1 than we poor wor before.

The floor is inlaid in a geoâ€" metric pattern to indicate rivers, fields, roads but this is treated abstractly so as ‘to represent simply a pattern to the older child. There is a wall mural of similar type. A graphic scale cf feet running horizontially around two walls at the dado line provides an elementary standard of size for a child as he beâ€" comes interested in measurements. The furniture, in natural birch, includes a crip, high chair, unit chests with drawâ€" ers, ~shelves: and cupboards, an ceasy chair, hassocks, a playâ€"workâ€"bench.
