How the enterprising Decorators are halting the crowds by using the suggestions in The Review's article of July 3 ^^^^VIAYE you noticed the fre- with a small ice-cap, under the edge of rock on the waves caused by the w AVE you noticed the fre- quent items in the news- letters the last two or three weeks about how the enter- prising decorators are flag- ging the perspiring pedes- trians by initting in special summer windows ? It all came about because of the arti- cle, "Cool Windows for Hot Weather," in" The Review for July 3. It set the quick wits and nimble fingers working.

A dis- play that gives the idea of coolness is sure to attract a crowd. People are searching for a cool spot, and if they can not find one to get into them- selves, they will stop and watch one in a disjday window. This is the thing to be l)orne in mind when one is dec- orating
