Window Treatment Can Work Wonders For A Room Did you know that beautiful window treatments can work' wonders for a room? That is true, states Mrs, M, B, Taylor, home Economics Extension Agent, They can set the decorating mood. They may be come a part of the background or the center of Interest; dramatise a lovely view or screen off apoorone;complementpleas ing architectural features or con ceal lack of them. In addition, they often play an Important functional role in sound absorption and insulation. The windows of your home provide a transition between out side and Inside living. They may control fresh air, light and privacy. The type of windows and the way the room is used influence the type of window treatments you select. There should be a feeling of harmony or unity for all of the windows as viewed from the outside of the home. On the Inside there should be a pleasing feeling of coordina tion as you move from room to room. Deciding on window treat-, ments becomes much easier lf you will: check your window types, consider different basic types of window treatments and possible ways to add individuality, decide on the right hardware for each window and carefully select the appropriate fabrics and trims.

And Immediately brother Bob Pugh, secretary of the Scottish Rite Bodies, and brother Nelson Baqks, recorder of Sudan Tem ple, became two of us and made themselves right at home among us. And while Carson Splvey Sr. and George Buck were cutting up the onions and D. J. White was frying them down, the charcoal grill was being prepared for cooking those steaks to the de sired taste and flavor; then James White arrived to assist with the cooking of the steaks; and in the Interim our guests from New Bern were passing around among the crowd and putting In a plug for the Scottish Rite and the Shrine wherever possible. When all were ready to eat, President Splvey called the party to order and asked secretary George Buck to give the invocation; then those steaks, hamburger patties, onions, french fries, and ice tea rapidly disappeared.
