Decorative Screen Lends Refreshing Touch t-o Room

By ANNICE DRINK

A decorative screen can be one of the most useful pieces in a. room. And if you cover it yourself. changing it as fancy dictates or new interior fashions unfold. it actually brings a refeshing and renewing touch to the room-

Whether you use it simply in a dark and empty corner, or to hide a door that is not used. or to incline a temporary work or dining section. or to stand in the way of a draft—the screen proves its value.

How to go about covering one yourself?

HRST, you must choose a frame. This may be simply the framework itself. or a frame- work complete with nanels of compo board»

Either one may be decorated with wallpaper. fabric, tea caddy papery-old periodicals or flower prints, or even old and beautiful materials.

Ifit is paper you‘re going to use, the compo board equipped frame is best. For fabric. the frame is sufficient.

Canvas or burlap must be used as a foundation for the frame- work screen when a material is to be the covering. This should be cut larger th..;i each panel. then stretched and tacked to the edges of the panel. It should be tacked along one long edze and stretched kngthwise as you go along.

BACKING of the screen ‘- usually another fabric, less ex- pensive, and plain. Sometimes a good grade of burlap which is used for the foundation is suffi- cient for backing, too.

When applying wallpaper the compo board, which been secuzed to the frame. the panel smoothly and with w llpaper paste and the waﬂpaper.

British Still Not Understood Away from Home

LONDON. Aug. 2.—(G.P.)—"Bet- ter travelling facilities abroad and a considerable improvement in the mB-nhsrs and attitude of our own tourists. have done much to kill the legend that the British all wear knlckerbockeis. and have lIIOminent teeth, but. we are stiTi. individually and collectively. enor- mously misunderstood in foreign Willltries." said the Prince of Wales when he received members of the British Council for Relations with Other Countries at St. James Pal- ace.

The Prince said that of all the great powers this country was the last to let the world know what it owed to British achievements in these spheres.

“Our failure to do this," he pm. ceeded. "Ls due in part to our nat- ional shyness and, in part also. to cur irisularity, which led us in more palmy days to believe that the foreigner wouid come to us in

in the village of Mala Krsna.

any event, and that there was no need to offer him any special ln- ducements. nor to care how much or how little he understood us and our somewhat haphazard way of doing thing".

"Moreover, while our financial reputation is universally respected. a better knowledge o! our commer- ciol m€th0ds and institutions cannot fail to overcome the tendency to think we are old-fashioned, from which our, perhaps, noisier rivals have not failed to profit.

"Other countries appreciate the importance of making themselves better known to the rest of the world. Let us therefore, not be backward in undertaking a task of supreme importance to this country, not merely in s. narrow nationalist spirit, and not because we think that others can learn from us while we have nothing to learn from them, but in the general interest of international understanding and sympathy."

Pioneers Recall Good Old Times

LONDON. Ont, Aug. 2-(C.P.)- In a little white cottage, nestled among trees, holds the busy high- way No. ‘l, which runs through Prospect Hill, lives a woman who has Just reached the age oi’ 89 Years, writes Mrs. Warner s. Hud- son in the London Free Press.

In spite of this advanced age she arises at six in the mOHfn’; and during the summer month: goes outdoors into her garden, in which she takes a delight. Gladioli are he": favorites and she has more than 1.000 of them. The octogen- arlan is Mrs. William Blatchford and she likes to talk of old times,

The ﬁrst Methodist minister was a Mr» Ksrshaw and Mrs. Blatch- ford can remember well hearing him coming through [he wuod; on horseback. a saddle bag on each side of the horse, They cou‘d hear him away in the distance singing B- fﬁvflii-e hymn. In the early days there were paring bees when huge quailtities of apples were peeled 8nd quartered. to be dried for win- ier. Wocl bees were held when wool was picked to pieces ready to be 501m. The wool was dyed. They did their own dyeln}. Carpet rag bees were also common when rags were 59W?! iﬂgethef. ready to be ~wov=n into carpets.

The neighbor women used to go to the tamarack swamp and gather gocseberﬂes, wild raspberries and plums. These they preserved with rinaple sugar, and put away in s‘orie ars. .

Mrs. Blatchford tells hcw her father made a broom. He went in- to the bush and cut down a hick- ory sapling. At night he would sit. before the fireplace and peel it in strips about a foot, ‘Ike the strands of a broom. Then he would tum the peeled parts down and tie it down with a. string-like piece he would shave off. The long part or handle was whittled down with the axe and ﬁnished by using a draw knife.
