Sinopse
Características

Furniture is one of the chief requisites in our lives, promoting, as it does, health and happiness. Few have wealth, but all must have a home. Do we realize what a factor the furnishing of a home is, in the scheme of modern civilization We have as much a duty in educating the home-maker in the selection of furniture as in preaching civic beauty. To create harmony in a home is to raise the average of culture and intelligence. The home life is influenced by its furnishing, and in the home the nation is moulded. Without pleasant surroundings the child will seek outside amusements, thence the street corners and the attractive and well-furnished saloons. If one desires a well-furnished house, one should make house furnishing a study. Hoines are brought up to the standard in ratio to the study which is put upon them, it being impossible to build higher than ones ideals. The writer has been associated with the home-furnishing business all of his business life, from clerk to buyer, and then manager of one of the largest concerns in house-furnishings. He has kept in touch with the furniture markets by visiting them semi- annually for many years, as well as familiarizing himself daily with the demands and needs of the consumer, and has been closely affiliated with the State and National Furniture Association work.
