DECORATING TIPS By GENE TIMMS SOLID WOOD VERSUS VENEERS TIMMS Many people have a mis- con^Antinn about the desirabil- 12^^^ Ity and dura- 3 bility of solid I wood furniture I a s compared I with veneers. Actually, there are so many advantages in using veneers that the great majority of fine furniture is made with lami nated veneers today. First of all, the beautiful grains of many fine woods which you see on bedroom, dining room and other furni ture can only be accomplished with veneers. Wood veneer is a thin cross slice or lamination of boauti fully grained woods and this art has been going on since ancient times in Greece, Egypt and elsewhere. Very often, three, five or more layers of these lovely ve neers are cross grained and glued to a solid wood base, and this process makes the furniture more durable than the solid wood furniture. This does not mean that all veneer furniture is better than all solid wood furniture since it all depends on the quality of furniture referred to. But the only way you can get the advantage of the really exqui site grains of wood is with ve neered furniture. We brought you this dis cussion today because so many folks have asked us about veneers vs. solid wood. We hope you found it interest ing. And, don't hesitate to .stop in anytime and discuss furni ture with us. We’re here to serve you — whether you’re ready to buy or not. And re member too, you always get a diacount at our store whether you buy on our easy payment plan, or pay cash. .Mrs. Walter Harmon, Charles Blanton and Mrs. Dickcy entertained together last Friday morning at the Country riub at a going-away party for .Mis. Harold Gilstad. The Herald last iweek inadver Women^s Health Mrs. Charles Preston has re turned to Tallahassee, Fla. after visiting her parents. Mr. and Mrs. Frad Owens and family. Mrs. Preston is the former Pat Owens. ‘‘Who’s that boy I saw you with the other day?” ‘‘That’s no boy, that's my pop!" If it’s your impression that fa thers are younger these days, you’re right, and a survey by the Institute of Life Insurance bears you out. In 1940, the average numiber of babies per 1,000 fathered by men in their late 40’s and early 30's was higher than the fatherhood rate of men in their late teens and early 20's. By 1962, the re verse was true. In 1940, reports the Institute, young men between the ages of 15 and 19 fathered only 7’A of every thousand babies. By 1962, the rate had almost tripled to 21 per thousand. In 1940 men be tween the ages of 20 and 24 fa thered 912 of every thousand, as compared with 195.6 in 1962. TTie percentage increases are correspondingly high through age 34, and then the number of children born to older men be gins to fall sharply. This due, in part, the Institute believes, to more effective birth control methods. Women of childbearing years, and especially pregnant women, ' should avoid contact with anyone jwho has German measles (rubel la)—even infants who might have contracted the disease be fore they were bom and show no symptoms after birth. (Rubel la may cause heart disease, deaf ness, cataracts, mental retarda tion, and other defects if con tracted by an unborn baby)^ Doctors at New York Univers ity’s School of Medicine and Bay lor University, Texas, report that such infants may harbor the virus for months after birth without showing any symptoms. They may, nonetheless, be car riers capable of infecting others. Eight nurses and one resident pediatrician who had been in close contact with the infants de veloped rubella symptoms. The roommate of one of the nurses and the wife and child of the pe diatrician also contracted the ill ness. It’s just not true that poor, uneducated women don’t care how many children tliey bear. When some 2600 women attend- ! ing public health maternity clin ics in Florida were asked whe- ’ ther they wanted more babies, 70 per cent said they did not. 01 those who wanted additional cljildreo, 907o said they want;;d to space their pregnancies. Two experts confirm what most of us have long suspected: We can diet faithfully, but cal orie cutting alone is not enough. Exercise plus sensible diet is a must for effective weight reduc tion. Harvard researcher Jean May er, Ph.D., studied motion pictures made of 56 high school girls at a summer camp. Half the group were overweight, half wrere not. Yet the overweight girls ate 300 to 400 less calories a day than their slim friends. What made the difference? Exercise, says Dr. Mayer. The movies show that the heavy girls spent only one-third as much time being physically active. Playing volleyball they ran around about 20 per cent of the time, while the slim girls raced about some 60 per cent o'- the time. The overweight girls were even more inactive in the water and on the tennis court. That sedentary life and obesit> go together is also documentec, by Frank Konishi, Ph.D., of Southern Illinois University, Car- bondale, Ill. Noting in a recent study that it would take 18 minutes of brisk walking to burn off the 96 calories in two strips of bacon, 15 minutes for a slice of bread and butter, 667 minutes for a hamburger, Dr. Konishi concludes: "It is apparent that physical activity should be a major factor to consider in preventing or treating obesity. However, the prevalence of obesity in the U.S. suggests that many individuals fail to appreciate the value of physical activity.” Bndge-Luncheon Set For Wednesday The regular monthly ladies’ bridge luncheon at Kings Moun tain Country club will be held Wednesday morning at 10 o’clock.
