Mr. Polston has been a resident of Henderson for many years, and has been connected with the furniture business and banking business of this city. Mr. Polston has a host of friends in the business and residential sections of the city and extends a cordial in vitation to all his friends to visit him in his new connection. A well known furniture man and widely experienced in the furniture needs of the people of Henderson and Vance county, Mr. Polston says: “We will be 'better equipped to furnish the home than any store in this vicinity, and will appreciate the privilege of showing this beautiful and well bal anced stock whenever we are given the opportunity.” Does Your Dining Room Setting Make Guests Spirited Or Bored? It is surprising now sensitive most neople are to their environment. Place them in a large room with pan eled walls, heavy draperies, somber decorations and a deep carpet that deadens sound ... and pretty soon they'll be conversing in whispers and acting as though attending a wake. Move the same group to cheerful, col orful surroundings and they’ll be to tally different people. There's a hint for the hostess who wants to be known for her gay, amus ing dinner parties. Does your din ing room encourage hilarity or give guests a feeling of restraint? Is the “atmosphere” indefinable as that may be —imbued with good cheer or a thread of boredom? It’s all a matter of simple psychol ogy ... just like living up to one’s ?iothes. Any woman knows that a ‘giddy” hat will change her entire Imposition ... and a man who skips bis shave some morning is quite apt to feel out of sorts all day. Comfit uu/ f Jsic. HENDERSON, (N. C.) DAILY DISPATCH, WEDNESDAY,' SEPTEMBER 29, 1937 0 Secretaries Still in Demand —Flat Tops Are Very Smart The writing desk at home where dad does his figuring, mother makes out her marketing lists and every one writes letters should be as beautiful as it is useful. Some of the latest designs in writ ing desks are very smart. Made in walnut, mahogany and oak, sturdy flat-toppsd desks, smaller than the average office size, look very chic and businesslike in the study. Sharp Lines Fascinating. The sharp lines of these low desks are fascinating and harmonize with modern designs of the latest living room pieces if you have nc seperate study. The low height permits the hanging of prints on the wall above and the flat top makes a table in it self which holds such useful orna ments as desk sets, a few books, ash trays or the telephone. Low, smart looking chairs go well with these new designs. Secretaries, the high ones, have long been popular and are still in great demand. Their lines are grace ful and they are made in finishes that fit into almost any living room ar rangement. DO YOUR ROOMS MEET DEMANDS OF FOUR POINTS? There are four viewpoints from which to judge'your room: (1) Line: you don’t want a graceful curved chair beside a straight, angular table. (2) Color: check the floor covering, wallpaper, pictures, draperies and ac cessories, as well as the upholstered furniture. (3) Finish: this means the exposed wood of the furni ture. (4) Proportion: you don’t want a massive table beside a small, dainty chair. If there’s something out of line on any of the four counts, put it at the top of your list of furnishings to be replaced as soon as possible. COLOR LEADERS The repo*!: of the National Uphols tery and Drapery Textile Associations shows green decreasing but still lead ing in upholstery colors, with blue and gold increasing. Gray also is in creasing as against white and off white, which are falling off. Tams, beige and mauve are rising while the deeper browns decline.
