To Club Women Color Expert Reviews Room Harmony Ideas Placement and color count for most In the perfect room, Wieland Bryant, Dallas, told women's club representatives at a luncheon in the SettJes hotel Thursday. "The most Inexpensive furniture pieces properly placed and bound with right colors will make a perfect room," he declared. Bryant representatiye of Sherwin-Williams company, displayed large color portraits of beautifully decorated rooms from the guide book, "Paint and Color." One striking combination was the picture of an ordinary dining room which had been re-decorated with light yellow walls and ceiling, yellow-green drapes a cinnamon colored carpet accented by the yellow-red of the dining chair scat covers. Members of the audience caught their breath when Mr. Bryant quickly switched from the warm toned dining room display to one of a bedroom in shades of coo! blue.

In order to avoid monotony of color scheming, the blue was enhanced with touches of white a rich brown. Another book which solves every color combination problem cover- Ing more than SCO shades, the "Style Guide Companion" was also exhibited. The book which (s a result of more than 15 years of research by leading art exports, deals with the 139 colors used by decorators throughout the country. Mr, Bryant showed how rug or crape could be placed with their proper combinations within moments by matching them with colors in the book. An inter ting effect was achieved when the same shade of green was framed in blue and then in yel' yellow compliment made the green appear almost a blue-green, white the blue made it much lighter.

For the benefit of women who prefer t- attempt their home decorating without professional aid, the store has placed the two books on a free lending basis. Also, demonstrations will be furnished various women's cluos on request. Among the ladies who attended the luncheon were Mrs. Gilbert Gibbs, president of the City Federation Woman's Clubs; Mrs. K.
