THE Entrance Hall bears the same relation to the home that the expression of the face bears to 

 the whole personality — it indicates the spirit that dwells within — from it are obtained first 

 impressions, and first impressions are said to be lasting. It is important then to see that the 

 decorative scheme of your Entrance Hall strikes the key-note of the spirit of your home — a quiet, 

 unostentatious richness that foreshadows the warmth of your hospitality. 



^ The Entrance Hall we picture above well illustrates our point and is perfectly possible of achieve- 

 ment, all the decorations and furnishings used being made by four of the most reputable concerns in 

 the United States. 



Cfl Nothing could excel in appropriateness for this purpose the Whittall Anglo-Persian Rug No. 337, 

 Color No. 148, used as the basic note of this dignified hall. The texture peculiar to the Anglo-Persian 

 fabric is of such soft resilience as to allow the foot to sink into the pile as into a bed of moss — the acme 

 of luxury in floor-covering, the Oriental " Tree of Life " of rather indefinite design, covers the rug well 

 — the prevailing tone being old rose — the paper, of the same shade is by Birge, the draperies of old rose 

 Cheney Velour De Luxe 2818/629 an ^ tn e furniture of Early English period is by Berkey & Gay. 



<§ Should this particular decorative scheme prove not suited to your needs, a visit to your nearest 

 Whittall dealer will help you to the choice of a rug about which to build your room. Our booklet 

 " Oriental Art in Whittall Rugs " is also of great assistance and will be sent you free upon request.
