Readers of Vogue and 
House & Garden, who have 
enjoyed Miss Dryden’s cov¬ 
ers, will be interested in the 
atmosphere with which she 
surrounds herself. It is old- 
fashioned, quaint and very 
simple, as in the dining 
room shown above 
An early American air is 
given the bedroom by the 
old-time, curly maple bed, 
the old painted chest, the 
curtains of moss rose chintz 
with light-blue box-pleated 
trimming, and the hooked 
rug. The walls of the room 
are plain 
The dressing table in the 
bedroom is early American 
maple. It and the mirror 
above it are covered with 
the blue of the box pleating 
used on the curtains. Sil¬ 
houette portraits, of which 
Miss Dry den has a collec¬ 
tion, hang here

MISS HELEN 
APARTMENT 
Besides the Welsh dresser 
and the old oak refectory 
table there is, in the dining 
room, a rare red lacquer 
desk. The walls are cream 
and the curtains flowered 
chintz on tan ground, 
bound with pale lavender 
taffeta
