MUSIC IN THE AIR
We are to have musical rooms now—not rooms which will play at you as soon as you step inside, but rooms which have symbols of music dotted here and there by way of decoration. '1 he result is attractively effective. Violins, guitars, and many other musical instruments are used with success to pattern fabrics, and curtains or bedspreads are sprinkled with violins instead of flowers. Nor are fabrics alone decorated in the musical manner. Rugs show designs with harps and key signatures skill'ullv mingled, as do even carpets of gigantic proportions. Tea sets of fine china have their decoration made up of trophies of musical\instruinents, and while parchment lamp shades decorated with a line of music are ljot so very new, they will be considered so if used in connection with this latest fashion in decor.
