bitrof dolngover for at least one room of the house as well as by looking at rnew furniture and the beautile Tnew wallpapers If you contemplate papering room here is some professional fbdvice Use largescaled patterns in Iarge rooms and conversely close small patterns or tex lured papers for small rooms Consider disguising architec tural limitations such as beams and jogs with small allvover patterns or textural papers IUHE PATTERNS Use small allover nondirec lional patterns on walls and ceiling in gobled rooms with slanting walls Consider light colors to ex hand small room dark colors to diminish large one Use matching wallpaper and Jabric such an onehue French stripes and checks to give unity to small room Use patterned paper to set apart dimag area or an al cove from an open floor plan and textural eifeot on the re maintng walls This really does wonders Now some important Donts Dont combine patterned wall paper with bold designs in rug or fabric no matter how large the room It is too noisy too Eblusy and never really beauti Never use boldlypattérned wallpaper in room which con tains many pictures and books Dont be afraid to use dis tinctive patterns to emphasize particular type or character of furniture such as French Pro vincial Colonial American lath century Regency or modern There are papers that harmon ize with practically every furni tore style and period And never

Klexed mother writes to ask for elp in reducing her young fatty The best plan according to one forthright mother is to give the child the responsibility for keep ing the calorie score in the sec ond report on our young dieter the news is good The doctor checked our diet ingdaughter today and health wlse she is in excellent condi tion She has lost total of leti pounds Over the holidays there were some extras but she al ways stayed under 1500 calor les day and therefore did not gain it is much easier for her when school is in progress The best part about her plan of writing down the amount of calories in each food and keen ing score is that we have ex changed no harsh words Nor am constantly saying thats too fattening All say is look it up Then we dlscuss the amount of calories involved and decide what size the serv ing of certain food should he often she will decide the food costs too many calorics Its surprising how delicious bowl of fruit with its moderate col orie score looks to her and she now chooses fruit in preference to candy or cake We do not buy lot of diet ing extras The few things we buy especially for her are skim milk low calorie ice cream low calorie topping and salad dressing The rest of her diet is usually smaller servings of the food on our menu LOOKS BETTER Our daughter looks so much nicer already and is so pleased it is difficult to imagine what the loss of la more pounds will do for her She is eager to continue keeping score Her daily calories are little under 1200 dear friend and two grand parents have added an extra incentive for her ten cents HelpsDieter To Follow Rules apound for every pound lost They pay at each 10 pound loss do hope our daughters reducing story will encourage other youngsters and their moth ers to give the calorie count down plan try it is the first successful pro gram wo have tried Always be fore there were unpleasant wordsand no results Cheers My dictitinns cap is off to this spunky youngster and her mother By him child is old enough to cooperate While dicting is not really childs responsiblb lty and she cannot reduce with out the loving help of hq mother until the youngster hen self is willing and eager to co operate results are bound to be disappointing It is now abundantly evident that the food habits established in the growing up years tend to stay with the child and deter mine whether she grows up to be an overweight wall flower or happy active normal weight young lady We will be eager to hear again from this winner who finds calorie counting fasci nating game and sure way to reduce Fendleys
