THE SUNDAY N these days of more compact living, of economy of time, space and energy, the old-fashloned parlor that was only opened for the honored guest has almost com- pletely disappeared, and in its place has come the modern living room, usually the most generously propor- tioned, the brightest, most cheerful and comfortable room in the house; especially In the newer houses, where there Is nearly always a big open fireplace, more than likely a sun porch, at one end, or a terrace lead- ing out into a garden. Of all the big, fine developments in house planning and building, it seems to me one’ of the best and most po- tential is the growth of the living room, as we know 1t today. Never before was there such a need for the quiet nad comfort, the space and harmony of a well planned, well fur nished room, where the whole fam ily may gather In the evening foi relaxation, for study, for music, for work or play. The outside distractions are %o many and so varied, especially for the voung people, and the wear and tear on the nerves of the older ones is so great at times that they all need a haven to which they may turn after the stress of the day is over, and too much Importance cannot be placed ot too much time and thought and money be spent on making this family room the most comfortable, the most attractive and cheerful one Primarily, it must have ease and i in the house. especially ; in other needs of each individual in the family and yet harmoniously combine the tastes and pursuits and requirements of all. This may sound difficult, but it Teally is not.so much a matter of the proper combination of the physical elements as it is one of spirit. and thoughtfulness reign a family room somehow expresses this spirit, no matter how homely its furnish- ings, and not all the wealth in the world can inject peace into a room where it is lacking_among the mem- bers of a family. There {s certainly something very intimate and appeal- ing about favorite chairs and oid These are things that give a room its indi- viduality and charm. Therefore, when you find you cannot afford the new overstuffed suite covered with mul- berry mohair don’t bemoan the fact, but keep your old things scrupulously clean and usc to their fullest advan- | tage their softly faded colars and thelr air of _timeworn ' but true triendliness, and perhaps by next year you will have outgrown your desire for the mulberry suite. Aside from the spirit expressed in your living room, its big underl. ideal, there are, of course, certain fundamental principles which aid us PEOPLE OF NEAR EAST FEE T OTHER LANDS Appalling Situation Depicted in Connection With Plea for Red Cross Funds. “An appalling situation of suffer- ing, involving hundreds pf thousands of peope who have been forced to flee from their homes in the near east and to seek refuge in lands already burdened with care, has emphasized to the people of this country that the American Red Cross is our na- tional emergency fund with meet great crises in disaster, tary Hoover said yesterday, in a plea for the roll call. “The accentuation of the fact is the greater in that the | particular_calamity now appealing to humanity has fallen just in ad- vance of the American Red Cross an- nual roll call. “The resources of the American Red Cross must be annually replen- ished through the roll call. This year the summons is seconded by a con- crete’ emergency of the kind that is ever liable to be precipitated upon the world. It Is impossible for the Red Cross to'be dependent on a pub- lic appeal for specific objects, because when emergency and disaster face us we have no time to walt until funds can be ralsed. The Red Cross is our sver-ready agency for responding to the call of calamity the moment the alarm is sounded. “The American Red Cross should have a minimum membership of ten million in order that its reserves may be equal to our domestic and our foreign emergencies in humane pur- poses. In the light of my experience in relief work throughout the world I feel it a duty to express my per- sonal hope that the people of America will show their confidence in their Red Cross in this roll call in unmis- takable terms. Let's all get behind the Red Cross and give it ten million members for its gerat work.” NEAR EAST RELIEF WORK + REPORTS SET AT REST The local Near East Relief mana- gers have received & letter from Charles V. Vickrey, general secre- tary, in New York, stating that “some of our state directors have been d turbed by the Associated Press dis- tch with reference to excessi customs charges in Constantinople that threaten the continuance of Answering &ny bjections,” Mr. Vickrey stated that direct cable from Constantinople assured him that customs difficulties are tempo- rary and such as are naturally inci. dent to new regulations of & new government. “Similar rulings,” continues, “have frequently been made in Constantinople in the .past, de- 1al transac: mittee in Constantinople will on this occasion be secured for relief supplies. “It is vitally important, however, to remember that only & frac- ttion of Near East Relief work is in Constantinople, ~The &ut majority Shier o e Teamacatcasis.” Byria: Palestine and now - centering mi o STAR, WASHINGTON, The Home With a Personality XVII—The Living Room < By Celestine B.

Keep the walls light |and warm, especially in a small room, i but do not make the mistake of hav- ing them too light, for then they have an_unpleasant staring appear- |ance. For the average living room Ithe rug or floor covering is better ikept as part of the background, | whether it be a plain carpet or a softly colored figured rug. With ‘a 0od background as a foundation the | planning of the rcom is very much | simplified. The lighting in the living room is very important. It should be bright enough for reading and vetj soft enough to avold the possibility : of having any glare. Lamps with silk _or parchment shades and wall | brackets give sufficient light and yet | keep it colorful and soft. For read-| ing- the gold, tan or sand-colored shades are best. | Arrange the furniture for conven- ! | ience and comfort—a desk and chair | near a window, a davenport or stool lor easy chairs near the fireplace,' chairs near the.large library table, a lamp and a stool cohvenient to the davenport; but avoid the mistake of | | having the room overcrowded.
