Pipe* Laid Under Floor In Radiant Heating In installing radian: heating by means of hot water circulated through pipe coils in existing houses, two methods are used. The pipe coils may be laid directly on i the old Soar with a new floor laid ; or top over two-by-fours or the pipe coils may be installed between joists j in ordinary open joist construction. When pipes are installed in e:ther of these ways over a basement, in sulation on the underside is neces sary if the basement is not to be heated. About three inches of min eral wool or fibre glass is suggest ed. When installed between joists ] with access from the basement, it is j easy to compensate for errors by installing additional piping. In radiant heating installations, j either in new houses or in old, it is ! advisable to ran the return from each room separately to the boiler. The return should be equipped with a valve so that the flow of hot water to the room may be increased or decreased in accordance with the heating requirements of the room. 1 Special On Nationally Known Summer Blankets COLORS:— Green, Blue, Cedar, Rose. 25 per cent Wool 75 per cent Cotton ONLY 55.95 o - SOSSAMON - TYSON FURNITURE CO. |/slk! !

If you have either c i these preb .ems and cannot find a moe mate rial for curtains, perhaps you have an cte chintz bedspread ce or apery material tucked away in an old trunk in the attic. This J ideal fsr sewing gay attractive framing for kitchen window*. A single-sired bedspread wU usually yield at least two pair <rf ace or two piece curtains for kitchen windows Yes. this intrudes ruffle from the same material too. Os course, if you prefer to make the curtains look just a arils bit mere tailcred. then you might coc tider trimming the edges with a con trasting colored piping particularly if the pattern cf the material is well-covered with a floral design. Your best pattern for kitchen win dows is to cut a tissue paper fac simile of the curtains you now use. I am assuming they are the cor rect length and fit properly. The Important thing in windows is to nave sufficient fullness so the cur tains dc not look skimpy. If your heme, and particularly the kitchen is done in a very early American motif or is strictly mod em. you might forego some of the fullness for an effect cf simplicity or gtod tailoring. Then you will plan tc clothe the windows differently: avoid the ruffle, settle for bric-a-brac or a contrasting band arc-usd the edge, and let the curtain fall in soft folds rather than in a gathered ef fect. Correct Measurements For Carta in s Curtains are generally me armed from the red to the sill. If you do not have curtains that fit well, it is well to make the measurement and see that you have ample fullness and length. If you are using a piece of old material as suggested, ar.d it has I ff! If you hole a uom*>ut bed spread. . . . been washed, you will not have to allow the two inches per yard cf shrinkage as is done in new mate rial, but you will have to make al lowances for the following: bottom hem, which is two inches plus a one-quarter inch turn; top head ing which is one and one-half inches and casing which is cne inch plus one-quarter inch for turning. If you are making sash curtains —two piece or half curtains, as they are sometimes called —measure from the center red to the bottom of the sill for the lower half. For the upper, half, measure from the top rod to one and cne-fcalf to two inches below the center rod. If desired, the two parts- may be in different materials and colors. Procedure Given for Making Curtains It- is very important to have all edges absolutely straight before starting to sew on the curtains, as ISEEIIIB eel— ~ _L L l ) \ _J Seu tome kitchen curtains. they hang within plain sight of ev eryone and can give a slightly askew appearance to the room if they arc lopsided Straighten the ends of the fabric by tearing or pull ing a thread.

Little Bpy This tittle gentleman doesn't have to be so self-corse io os be cause he's well turned oct in a two-piece ensemble of kiduroy. the new corduroy that can take a beating snch as only a yoangsaee can give it. and if necessary straighten the fab ric. Watch this closely when work ing with a printed fabric. Seme women prefer leaving the selvage on the curtain tc save sew ing a side, but it is advisable to cut it cfl and -- : the material The selvage edge may shrink and give the curtains, and r a rurally the room, a hinarre „ ,-r.egra, ,ce. If the selvage is removed, make a hem cn the fabric. If plain stitching is not desired for the hem. the material may be nemst-tened or named with col ored stitches, feathersikehed or even bound in harmonizing nr cen tra stir, g colors. Casings at the tip cf the curtain usually depend upon me size of the rod. This rmay reqdre from nne and one-half to two mines If you are worried about shrinkage, place a tuck acres, th* -nrmair cc fine in side below the casmg "sea i-r.g stitch on the mac:me fir mi. or baste is place. If you have decided upon ruffle* for your curtains, men measure one of the long sides and the bottom and make the ruffle two and one half times this length. Use long stitches on the machine first, then gather to fit toe curtain, the ruffle going to the inside of the curtain and at the bottom. If you have tie backs for the curtains, here again, use two and one-half times the length of the tie fer making the ruf fle. For placing the ruffle on the cur tain stitch in place and finish with a fresch seam. For the tie backs, however, tuck the ruffle in-between the material itiebacks are made of a wide piece of material folded) and stitch once or twice on the edge, depending upon the fabric. Furnishings Women who are handy with the needle can do a lot toward mak ing the home attractive and liva ble. Slipcovers and draperies, well matched and with an eye to good taste, car, bring together a room if it contains many odd pieces of furniture. For dark rooms, consider the lighter fabrics to add cheer to the room. For bright rooms, you may use darker colors. • If you live near an industrial section, choose fabrics that laun der easily so that you can keep clean and still be kind to your cleaning budget It is worth while to buy good fabrics with good finishes for covering much used chairs, etc. When selecting binding and draperies for chairs and sofas, make sure that the material is washable or easily cleaned. It’s far better to hunt than try to mend or re-dye the binding after the first cleaning. Special patterns are now being created in cotton to make that tex tile attractive even for dressy frocks. Lady-like elegance is the phrase being used more often as we get back on a prewar basis in the world of fashion. That’s why you're see tng flowary hats, swathed in veiling dressy suits and blouses that art the height of trilliness.
