BUIUE CALLING ALL HOME MAKERS By CHARLES BUICE WE ARE NOW GOING THROUGH A NEW ERA IN HOME DECORATION During the past few years there has been a quiet revolution going on in furniture and decorat ing business) concerning the proper way to, furnish a home. In the past, anyone could buy a book on decorating a n d follow the rules concerni n g what goes with what^ which colors may be us ed together, how to rec ognize and use different periods o f furniture, ?tc. While there are still many such books, and while they still contain much that is helpful, there have been vast changes in the thinking of profession al decorators and furniture store personnel. More and more people are disregarding all of the old rules. Does green go with blue? Does orange go with yel low? Does Early American go with Contemporary? Many of the old rules said “no” to questions like these. Now, however, the answers may well be “yes.” There are new ex citing ideas and concepts in decorating. There is more emphasis today on furnishing a -home with in dividuality rather than fur nishing it like all other homes. It’s an exciting time in home decoration, and we invite you to come in and share in this excitement— come in and see all the new items . . . the new col or combinations . . . and the new ideas. And then you can enjoy the thrill of starting to furnish your home in beautinful new ways. sure to go by Max well Brothers Furniture, 204 North Broad Street, Clinton, at your earliest convenience and let one of our experienced salesmen help you with exciting new ideas about making your home more decuioiive.
