Homemaker's News 6y Bar6ara Sharp County Associate Home Demonstration Agent CARPETS AND RUGS Carpets and rugs have never been prettier than they are right now, the values have never been greater. But which one should you buy? You're probably con- fused because there are literally hundreds of new styles on the market, fi- bers with unfamiliar names, promises of "mi- racles" and conflicting claims. You probably haven't shopped for carpet in a long time - - after all, it's not an "everyday" pur- chase, like food or cloth- ing -- and it does repre- sent a big investment for your home. Beauty is important - but naturally you want it to last. You want to be sure that the carpet or rug you prefer is the "best buy" for your home. In selecting quality and judging performance - how well the carpet will hold its appearance, and how long the surface and back- ing will last: There's a basic rule NEWS OFFICE SUPPL ,~H COpy SERVICE Mrs. John M.

MAXI, MIDI, or There is no one-way street in fashion these days. You can pick and choose what really works for you. It is almost an infinite impossibility to talk about what's IN fashion anymore because tastes have gone beyond such a closed system. Thursday, Briarcrest Country Club, in conjunction with Beverly Braley's, held their Annual Fashion Show. The theme was "Se'ason of Choice" which amibably denotes the fall-winter scene this year. Kim Dawson, direct.or of Dallas Apparal Mart emc,ee,d the proceedirtgs. Her special touches added glamor and spice to the show.. The seven models used were prfessional and quite suited to the rush, rush, rush of changing outfits. Approximately 200 women attended the show. A lun- cheon was served before the show and a small auction was conducted afterwards. The clothes used were from top designers of Amer- ica and the World. Fashions were from Nardis of Dallas, leading designer known the world over; Costumes and outfits from Ernst Strauss, one of America's leading suit makers of California; Separates from Bill Atkinson of Michigan; and furs by Spivey Boeman. There are certain limits if you want to look together, but it's possible for everyone to wear what she really likes and feel comfortably IN and still look "With It". This fall and winter you can pick anything from pant suits to jumpsuits to almost ankle-length coats. Skirts come in every length including new-looking, knee- showing ones--the knee is still alive and well. There is something for everyone in the new looks because clothes have become symbolic of what's happen- ing inside the people who wear them. "The girl who wears something she really doesn't like, just because she thinks it's in fashion, is just plain old-fashioned." II,~. it . . ) ...... ,. .

Initial cost of a rug or carpet may account for a fourth or more of the fur- nishings budget for a room. A fair judgment of the sell- ing price of any soft floor covering is made by com- paring the price of the carpet or rug with the number of years expected use.
