"Color is the keynote," she says.
"If your apartment is dark and
cramped, one may get the feeling
of space and light by using pale
yellow on the walls and by avoid
ing use of large flower designs
m me draperies ana turniture
coverings."
Slip covers and drapes of
stripes, checks, and plaids are best
in this case, but Mrs. Alexander
points out thtit too much pattern
of any kind tends to cramp the
atmosphere. She added that it is
well to remember that the more
simple the furnishings the more
expensive they appear.
Food Too!
If cooking is done in one end
of the apartment, Mrs. Alexander
suggests that drapes or screens
should cover this end while it is
not in use. She points out, though,
that the drapes should be the
same color as the walls, and that
the screen should be painted with
paint identical to the walls.
Bare floors are more attractive
than those covered by numerous
scatter rugs, she says. Large rugs
are very expensive but a cheaper
version may be made by sewing
together four bathroom-size shag
gy rugs.
The books which clutter many
student apartments may be placed
in attractively painted orange
crates that will also serve as end
tables. Mrs. Alexander, suggests
that any piece of furniture that
can be made to' do double duty
should be used. If trunks must
be kept in the room, they can be
padded, slip covered and used for
window-seats.

duce the structure of the U N and
outline the proctedure of action.
The various accomplishments
and failings, as well as the U N's
future possibilities will be dis
