For, while virtue lay formerly in brevity of hair- dressing a mere comb through the hair and a shake, it has now to be elaborate and careful,; any many of the little curls need!. extraneous aid really to look their best.

Walls do not present a formid- able problem in Spanish decora tion. Many are left roughcast, but there are mote picturesque ways of dealing with them. One hotel lounge has the walls paint- ed with scenes from Don Quixote. Another has a dado of graceful Moorish diaper pattern, with 7 trellised frieze of orange and lemon groves.
