ART OF ARRANGING FLOWERS Flower arrangement is a delight ful pastime hich lends a decorative note to the home few inanimate things can imitate. And it is not a difficult art to master if one will fol low the few general principles which really matter. One of these is bal ance. Balance means that the weight on each side of an axis is equal, as in the case of a playground see-saw, when two cbilden of equal weight balance each other on the board. In case of flower arrangement, the tame principle is observed, using the container as the axis, instead of the sawhorse on the see-saw. There are different ways of cre ating balance. First we can put an equ&l number of blossoms of about the same size on each side of the vase. Second, we can attempt to com pensate a larger number on one side, by placing longer blossoms on the other. The illustration of the see saw is again in point, as we remem ber that a heavier ?ierson on one end must give way a little more board to the lighter one on the other end. It is also possible to make what appears to be a balance of weight, by a careful choice of colors. In the illustration, light and dark roses and delphiniums are used. You will note, however, that both number and length fo the blooms cu the right side far surpass those on the left, and should in principle outweigh them. Yet, the whole is pleasing. Why? Because the roses on the left are ex tremely dark in color, and color in design always gives the impression of weight. Keep these three prin ciples of balance in mind when mak ing arrangements; they will help ycu get more enjoyment from your flow ers- SaBSJl aMBaVaMtsf i!
