IN A NARROW UPPER HALL 
. 
It is rather difficult to solve the decora¬ 
tion of a narrow upper hall. A passage 
from one part of the house to another, 
it cannot he blocked by too much furni¬ 
ture and yet it should contain some 
furniture lest it have the barren appear¬ 
ance of an office building corridor. 
Here an air of dignity is created by high 
oak paneling. The coved cream ceiling 
is enriched with gilded sprays of wil¬ 
low leaves. A little dressing table 
and a commode, set at one side of the 
passageway, furnish proof of habita¬ 
tion. The rug lends its color notes
