WOMEN DECORATORS
BETTER THAN MEN. SAYS EXPERT Many women are conducting successful businesses of their own as painters and cisco raters, and manv more hold highly responsible positions in some of the leadiDg firms. “Women of artistic taste and. of good physique find the work very congenial,” said the head of a prominent firm of decorators. “They are frequently far more successful than men in planning decorations in private homes. A woman knows instinctively the particular purpose for which any room in a house is best suited. Consequently suggestions for colour schemes and so on that she is able to make to a ciieut are usually of far more practical value than those put forward by men.” Most of the girls entering the trade do so as apprentices.
