An unusual treatment for a French 
doorway leading from a library to 
a dining room shows heavy, ecru 
colored casement cloth edged with a 
wide, coarse cotton fringe and se¬ 
cured at top and bottom by divis¬ 
ible rods. On the dining room side 
of the door rose colored chiffon crepe 
has been used, fastened in the same 
manner, with graduated tucks run- 
ning from l" to 7", with the widest 
at the bottom. J. C. Demarest & 
Co., decorators

In the living room shown below glass cur¬ 
tains of sheer French net are ruffled and 
bound in blue taffeta. Hangings are violet 
taffeta with a scalloped edge, blue rosette 
tie-backs and looped valances—a happy 
color arrangement against the jade green 
glazed paneled walls. Mrs. A. Van R. 
Barnewall, decorator 
This Italian Louis XVI loggia, done in 
soft gray and yellows, has particidarly in¬ 
teresting hangings. The valance is shaped 
to conform to the arched openings. Hang¬ 
ings are taffeta edged with a decorative 
fringe and a narrow tracery of embroidery 
culminating in a feather design. Walker 
& Gillette, architects
