New Ways of Adapting Plywood

New ways of adapting Harbor Douglas Fir Plyrvood to interior walls and ceilings are demonstrated in the accompanying illustration of the living room in the home of A. R. \Muest at Aberdeen, Wash. Mr. Wuest is vice-president of the Harbor Plywood Corporation. While Mr' Wuest is interested in finding out various uses for plyrvood in build- panels so smoothly that when finished with or without plastic paint the joints cannot be detected. In Mr. Wuest's home the Colonial style permits the de'corative use of mouldings to conceal the joints in the plywood panels. l,I/'aIIs, cailings and floors of this handsomc Colonial liat'ng room are all made of Harbor Plyzaood. The ptr'nels are d.esigned to utilize ztarious sizes of the material. ing construction, his primary object is to have a beautiful. artistic and practical modern home and none of these features have been sacrificed to permit a wider use of plyrvood.

"By taking advantage of the variety of sizes in which Harbor Plywood is produ,ced," explains Clarence W. George, the ar'chitect who planned this house, "and taking these into consideration whe'n designing the panels, it has been possible to produce parti,cularly pleasing effects and at the same time .conserve material and make a saving in labor."

"The use of Harbor plywood for walls prevents any possibi,lity of damaging and defacing cracks," says Mr. George, "and the surface will receive any form of finish desired and is one of the finest bases for paint or enamel ; also it will 1>roduce extremely attractive results lr'ith the use of stain, and 'rvhen used in libraries or dens may be left in its natural form and treated with rubbed wax finish." "In fact Harbor Plywood will receive so many diversified finishes," Mr. George further states, "that it is possible to adapt it to any scheme or design 'required from the plain, simple wall and ceiling treatment to the most ornate design."

The ar.chitect and contractor find that Harbor Plyrvood lends itself admirably to the most attractive modern treatments, when used for walls and ceiling,s. Where perfe'ctly smooth walls are desired it is quite ltractical to join the

In the Wuest home, Haibor plywood has also been used for sieathing and its use for both sheathing and interior r,valls permits all joints to be sealed to prevent air circulation within the walls, protection is afforded against heat, cold and noise. The floors in all the rooms that are to have carpets or linoleum are also made of plywood; large panels are used requiring only a few joints and these are sealed so as to be practically invisible, and according to the architect these floors cannot squeak or become noisy as plywood does not warp and its surface remains smooth.

And Now They Are Advertising Eggs

Somebody is advertising eggs-no particular lcind, just eggs-in the New York newspapers, taking about three inches to display a life.size portrait of an ordinary, unbusted hen's egg. The copy cannot be criticised on the grounds that it is ultra-modern, emotional, or institutional. It reads simply, "Eat more eggs," "Eggs for vitality," o,r something like that. Brief, businesslike, and to the point. Yet we cannot get excited about this advertising. For in our mind's eye we cannot help seeing what an egg advertisement might be-a plate bearing a pair of fried-eggssrlnny-side-up, two perfect orbs, flanked with four, five, maybe six strips of bacon, the triumph of the American breakfast. When the egg-men show us dEfinite results from these ads we will shut up. But until then, daily over our morning paper, we shall groan, "What is so homely as a plain egg?"-Advertising and Selling.

The Art Of Convincing

"The way to convince anottyif," said Benjamin Franklin, a shrewd observer of humgrrf nature, "is to state your case moderately and accurat;f,y, and then scratch your head or shake it a little and gfy that it is the way it seems to you, but that, or coursgliou may be mistaken about it; which causes your listgier to receive what you have to say, and, as like as not, {urn about and try to convince you of it, \ since you are in\oubt; but if you go at it in a tone of positiveness and arrogance, you only make an oPponent of him."
