There can really never 
be too many attractive 
trays to call into service 
in the summer house 
—they are always in de¬ 
mand. Here is one that 
is ebonized in black with 
a Japanese gold lacquer 
design as decoration. It 
measures 14" x 11" and 
sells for $2.50 
And still another bridge 
table cover. Of the new 
designs we have select¬ 
ed one of black duvetyn 
which when smoothed 
out will not slide. It is

one-inch gold braid. In 
one corner is a conven¬ 
tionalized flower of rose 
duvetyn applied and 
corded on with a con¬ 
trasting color silk. The
