ANOTHER CONSTANT READER. Efficient operation of the oil-fired, home-healing plant is of high Important thia year both aa means of conserving oil and saving hipping apace. I Arthur H. Senner, mechanical engineer of the Bureau of Agrcul-tural Chemistry and Englneerihg, reports observations Indicating that firing an oil furnace at a tilth raie even though the burning time may be shorter likely to be con-sider- i ably more costly than firing at a lower rate.

And it also gives an Indication of the leanings toward domesticity to which she might devote herself were it not for her well-disciplined singleness of purpose. Hollace is known for several distinct accomplishments.

Her wonderful coloratura soprano voice is known to radio listeners a.s that of Vivian" oloist with the Phil Spltalny orchestra. It Is also known to lovers of symphonic music in her interpretation of difficult classical and operatic arias as soloist with several of the country's outstanding symphony orchestras, both in concerts and in recordings. She has also been known to Broadway and theater audiences In other cities as thesprightly, lovely-to-look-at young singer in three musicals, in each of which the mutic was excellent but the interest apparently not sufficient to give any of them a very long run. Her last musical was "Crazy With the Heat" and before that she played In "Higher and Higher" and "Very Warm for May." Daughter of Musical Family Apart from this public aspect of her life, Hollace is the daughter of a minister, eldest of five children and a member of an old California family. Music runs like a theme throughout the family, every member being musically gifted in some way or another.

She looks like a college senior and is not much older, being only five years out of Pomona College and is, to even the most critical eye, extremely lovely to look at. She is tall and lithe and slender. Her hair is really golden and falls softly in a long, curling bob. Her eyes are a fascinating blue-green, set above high cheekbones In a beautifully planed face. Her voice is gentle and pleasant and in speaking gives no hint of the extraordinary power of volume, trueness of pitch and remarkable range for which music critics have praised It after hearing her undertake a whole succession of difficult arias.

She has a great deal of natural dignity, poise and modesty. Although by all modern standards she would be rated as a success, she feels that she has not "arrived" at all. She does not feel that this Is her present, her peak of accomplishment. She has her eye on the future, she works exceedingly hard, disciplines herself like a Spartan and is willing to proceed slowly but with infinite surenevs and with a development that is not merely superficial, towards her goal. She wants to become an operatic and concert singer and hopes for more symphonic work, and she feels that to attain that goal she has many more years of work ahead of her.

In this she reflects the wisdom of her mother, for which she is so grateful. She has always wanted to sing, ever since she was very little.

The overall efficiency means that fraction of the heating-value In the oil that Is available for heating the house. In bringing the dfferent burning rate down to dollars and cents, Senner used an oil price of 7 cents a gallon, and an electric current cost for the motor; of 3 cents a kilowatt hour. At the firing rate of one gallon an hour the gross cost for the season was $138 of which approximately $8 was for current.

At the firing rate of 1.65 gallons an hour the gross cost was $153 of which approximately $6 was for current. At the higher burning rate the motor runs a shorter time and some money Is saved on current but the saving Is more than balanced by oil cost. At these prices, burning at the higher sate would cost a net of $15 a sea.son more. Where fuel prices are higher the saving Is greater. Cleaner Is Very Necessary To get back to the vacuum cleaner, she needs it for her apartment on W.

57th Manhattan, for which she selected the furnishings and in which she keeps house happily and entertains her friends and members of her family. She chose cool blue for the walls of the high ceilinged living room, a gray-beige rug and upholstery covers of a cool green, varied with flowered yellow chintz. She loves to cook and cheerfully does so at the drop of a guest's hat. Her favorite recipe "it comes out differently every time I make it" is Hungarian veal veal cutlet inch and a half thick, cut in two- THE BEAUTY OF THIS ROOM is more than skin deep for the wolfs serve a practical as well as an attractive purpose.

She finds that they have a true appreciation of good music and that the level of this appreciation is far higher than they are generally given credit for.

Sounds arising within the room are subdued and there is less transmission of noise from outside. In creating pre-decorated walls and ceilings, the boards are applied in panel, plank or tile shapes to form the desired pattern. The edges are beveled to make grooved lines where the boards meet.

Additional lines, grooved in the board, further the pattern structure where desired. One pleasing effect is to use boards of various widths, and in harmonizing wood tones, to give a random plank appearance. Another arrangement, utilizing large tileboards in an ashlar pattern, simulates the beauty of fine masonry. Patterns Unlimited Attractive ceilings can be obtained by using smaller tileboards in single color or in an harmonious blending of tones. The tileboard can be put in place to form plain or irregular checkerboards, squares and rectangles, diamonds and such designs as herringbone, plaid, basketweave and ashlar.

In fact, the number of possible patterns is almost unlimited. Mouldings and cornices of the sulatlng board or wood are frequently used to finish the room and provide Just the right note for complete harmony with the furnishings the room is to contain. Pre-decorated rooms are Even walls have personality these days! Home decorators point out that these surfaces no longer need be cold, bare expanses, dependinif entirely upon pictures and other wall hangings for their beauty. New finifhing methods now permit the home-maker to have walls and ceilings, too with built-in patterns which stamp each room with its own Individuality. One of the materials which make possible these, "personality interiors" Is insulating board.

Although now also note for its decorative effect, insulating board was originated to meet an utilitarian need. Its purpose was to keep homes more comfortable In Summer and Winter by retarding the passage of heat. Decorative insulation Is ft wall-board product, but a far different material than the plain boards of other years. It is produced in soft, pastel colors and interesting surface textures. Prefabricated in units of various sizes and shapes, it opens a new field for room de-.

sign. Color, texture and pattern are built into the walls and ceilings themselves. Now for All Roomi Insulating board has been used for many years to finish smart recreation rooms and for attic and other quarters needing extra protection from heat and cold. Its new beauty has extended its use to living rooms, dining rooms and almost any room in the house. Besides providing Its own dec Keep Wood Dry To Prevent Warp Bulged table tops, sticking wooden drawers, and warped ironing boards are familiar household problems In Summer.

Wood experts of the Forest Service of the U. S. Department of Agriculture explain that, in hbt humid weather, raw wood swells from absorbing moisture from the air. To help prevent this trouble, close the pores of the wood with a coat of varnish or other moisture-resistant finish while the wood is dry it isn't a Job for a rainy day. Apply spar varnish to all sides of drawers inside and out and to the underside of tables that have been left unfinished.

Wooden ironing boards are especially likely to warp from the moisture aggravated by the heat of ironing. Cover all sides of the well-dried board with phenolic resin varnish before padding. Eitaania Janay City, 30 A.M. L. Battary eark.
