Comfort and Luxury on the Piazza BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. TRELLISES, AWNINGS, TILED FLOORS, PIAZZA FURNISHINGS AND PLANTS ARE CLEVERLY USED TO GIVE A RESTFUL, COOL, OUT OF-DOOR ATMOSPHERE TO A ON A HOT DAY The season is with us, during which out-of-door living is at its best, and those who are without the resources | of a veranda feel themselves at a d advantage. ing about the mosphere tion suggested by a veranda, some thing delightful that is quite apart from the mere fact of being out of doors. By the use of gayly striped awning cloth of country club decoration thing gala seems to be demanded of. those who sit in festive looking porch furniture, among bright cushions, and because human beings are more o less chameleon-like in character a re sponse to the mood created usually results. So one sees that it is some- thing more than the actual increase in the amount of oxvgen taken into the lungs for which a livable out-of. doors place is responsible It is of interest to study how much of the atmosphere of out-of-doors and how much of the restful and fes- tive atmosphere of a veranda can be summoned indoors by those whose desire is for a veranda and whose facilities do not permit of it. In the construction of many apartment houses the veranda seems to have been omitted from the plans. There are also many large country houses that bear witness to the same lack There are some styles of architecture | to which the introduction of a ve- randa does not lend itself without vio lating the purity of lne in its tour. In the country one sees many | such, of the old-fashioned farmhouse type, built with the front door on a level with the ground. | alone one is reminded Some- con. Porch Atmosphere. To the dwellers in such houses and | | apartments it will be helpful to know what may be done to create a “porch room.” This is an indoor room, which is given the atmosphere and appear- ance of a veranda. It may or may not be something of a sun parlor The decorative treatment is not great- | Iy unlike that given to a well-appoint- | e sun parlor, however. A sense of | space, if not present, must be simu- lated, and all things which pertain to a veranda in the out-of-doors pertain to the porch room. Decorating. The room, which is preferably a north room, should be stripped of pic tures and let its decoration come from hanging plants and trellises. The walls should be given a plain light- colored surface. Green is good in a light, neutral shade, and so is gray, or a creamy white. There are ways of painting it re- over wall-papers | thi PORCH ROOM THAT IS INVITING papering is not feasible. A painted wall is quite as desirable, as paint is mroe suggestive of the out-of-doors than the majority of paper designs. You wish u change under foot when you step from the other rooms of the house into the porch room. and some. thing suggestive of coolness. A “tiled oilcloth in black and white squares is very poster-like in effect and smart to a degree. It, or green and white tiling, helps to give dis tinction to the porch room. Lattices and Plants. is hoped that the room has sev- eral windows and a pretty view, but even if that is not the case the out look can be made attractive. In the city porch room window boxes can be placed on the outer sills, and in efther city or country lattices constructed around the windows in tones of light green or dark green or creamy white seem to transport one into the open. Creeping vines will grow indoors when rooted in ample flower pot The containers as well as the plants can be made part of the decoration It There are plants with abundant foli age which w grow quickly. Porch Furniture. Instead of the indoor type of couch or sofa, a porch swing should be used. This will do more than almost any else to transform the character of the room. Such other furniture as is used should be of the veranda va- riety. If there is any upholstery, in chair backs or seats, it should be in bright cretonne or awning cloth. Plain wooden furniture of good line is desirable. This is cool looking and, if of slender proportions, will tend to | make the room seem larger than it is. If your room is small do not over power it by the size of the furniture vou put in. ture is recommended for room. the porch Comfort and Luxury. A table with a flowering plant on it and some books and magazines suitable to hours of relaxation eon tribute to the appearance of the im- provised porch. The comfort derived from such a room will well repay the effort of making it. Its construction will offer to home-makers whose hob- b is interior decoration a great ource of pleasure. To repair to such a room, when it is completed, receive | one’s friends and partake of an iced lemonade, or iced tea, is to apprec ate that one has the ability to create luxury at small cost, and with the reward of much comfort to one’s self | and associates.

The first lessons in running and dodging the little Jumpers got in chasing each other in play. Bspecial- 1y did they enjoy playing in the moon- light. It was at night, or just as the Black Shadows were beginning to creep through the Black Forest, that mother let them out of the home nest to go look for good things to eat. Each night she led them a little farther. When they had eaten a little they | would play in some open spot where the moonlight fell. mother keeping and so they were safer. Once mother signaled them to “freeze.” Then they saw her hop out in the nioonlight. What seemed like a moving black shadow suddenly appeared behind her. Mother ran. My, how she did run! But fast as she ran that moving shadow crept after her still faster. Then, just as two sets of great cruel claws were reaching down to seize her, she dodged. Before Hooty the Owl—for, of course, you have guessed it was Hooty who was after her—could turn, she had reached a place of safety. After Hooty had flown away in dis- gust, Mrs. Jumper called the children around her. “Did you see what hap pened out there in the moonlight? she asked. They all said they did. “Then you have had a good look at Hooty the Owl,” said she, “and you have seen one of your greatest enemies. Per- haps you noticed that his great wings made no sound. Did you see what happened when he was reaching for me with those great claws of his, and thought he had me?” “Yes'm,” replied one of the little Jumpers.” “You dodged."” “Just so,” replied his _mother. ‘Dodging is a fine art. The best dodger will live the longest. If you can’t outrun an enemy, dodge him. It discourages him. Until you are fully grown vou cannot run fast enough to be sure of running away from an enemy, so learn to dodge. You will find it one of the greatest accomplishments in_ life. Dodge trouble and live long.” “Yes'm,” replied all four little Jumpers, and tried to look very wise. “Try to keep out of trouble, but if trouble finds you, do your best to run away from it, and if you find you can't run_away from it, then dodge it,” said Mrs. Jumper, looking very grave. “Yes'm,” Jumpers, the four little why mother replied wondering looked 0 serious.

The third series will start early in the Fall, Petworth Church Music. A successful musical season has just been completed at the Pet- worth Methodist Episcopal Church under the immediate direction of Mrs. John Milton Sylvester, super- visor of church music and organist. The plans for the vear's work inaug urated last November included the in fusion of new material to form a senior choir, the organization of a Junior choir, the adoption of a course in hymn study throughout the church school, a_definite and systematic plan for chorus rehearsals, a series of short lectures on church music and the preparation of special programs through the year. Mrs. Sylvester has been for some years organist and di- rector of the solo quartet, consisting at this time of Joanna Best Russell, soprano; Linda Berg, contralto; Har- vey T. Townsend, tenor, and Benjamin Y. Morrison, bass, who present music for the morning services. At the evening services and at com- munion service the senior choir, which consists of the solo quartet and a chorus of 50 voices, for the most part young singers, under the direction of J. G. Henninger, have proven a valuable and attractive feature. A junior choir of 25 voices selected from the junior department of the church &chool has been in training through- out the year under the direction of J. M. Sylvester and will be given a regular place in the church service in the Fall, singing one morning service each month with the quartet. . Healing Is Theme. Viva M.
