Mar It— Attractive-
, ness~What __to Use
Several inquiries have been made
concerning the once 01 the terms
“warm" and “cold” as applied to
colors used in decoration in the cr-
tlcle in our last week's issue. Color
has the ability to attract. or repel
lizht. and its use in decoration has
been carefully studied. The use or
cold and warm colors is a. basic one
,in all interior decoration. I! one
compares the stained glass Windows
in a. church. he will find those on
the south side full of blues and cool
greens. The north side or the
Church has window's where the reds.
yellowe, and .rich brow us are mostly
used. This is the some theory that
applies to decoration-in the home.
White. all shades or blue. and some
greens are known as "cool" colors.
Really their makeup is such that
they repel light. Reds, oranges.
browns. purples ,and some yellows
are “warm" colors. and attract light.
Nature follows out these color
schemes in all her own natural ef—
fects. Note the color of the sun. a
fire, ripened fruit—ail warm colors.
Then the color or snow—a clear sky,
all cool colors.
North light is cold. If one adds
to this erect by making the interior
of cold colors. the criect is one or
cheerlessness. .
“For instance." said 18. E. Gorham
or the Gorham Co.. "in a dining
room facing-east or south 1 should

white on the woodwork. together

and 30: little sun. then I might turn
to the use of rose. or warm browns.
"The home builder should also re-
member one big thing in painting.
Always see that the wood is dry be-
tore the paint is applied. This is a
rule that should be strictly followed.
It will double the life of the paint.
If. however. there is moisture on the
surface and the “paint is applied. it
looks all right for a while but sooner
or later it begins to peel.
“As to other decorations in the in-
terior. we find that wall-papers are
coming back enough. There was a
time when well papers were passe.
Here they are back again. though.
We find a wry strong demand (or
