Tabernacle Recently, several pastors, youth leaders, and interested young people met to form the Castlegar Christian Youth Fel- lowship (CCYF), the purpose of which is to provide fellowship among all young people from all Christian church backgrounds, Also, it is hoped that all young people of Castlegar will feel welcome to attend all functions that the CCYF hold, even if they do not attend any church at all, Too long the Christian community has been fragmented by petty differ- ences and theological argumen- tation.

VIN 3H4 - Formalize a Room - Instantly interior Tips By LIN KRAUSE of Interiors Beautiful What formalizes a room? Not necessarily French Pro- ivineial furniture, or velvet ‘drapes, There are a lot of little . ‘things that can formalize a ;Froom almost instantly ... they ‘are additions to an existing ‘room. A plain drapery, for’ ex- ‘ample — add a contrasting stripe down the inside and across the bottom and tie back; add a tassel fringe to the inside ‘edges and tie back; add sheers dehind'the drapes; change the plain traverse rod for a deco- ‘fative one, especially a brass + one; add a valance or a swag gnd cascades in a contrasting color and fabric to the existing © window treatment. + Lamps — add a silk shade or a pleated one for the. con- ventional stove-pipe shape; trim a shade with tassel or rat- tailed fringe; hang prisms from a font-shaped lamp base if possible; put in a softer bulb. + Furniture — give it that old, formal over-stuffed look by adding lots of plumpy cushions made of formal fabrics auch as Satin and velvet with tassels on the corners or ribbon trim around the edges. Walls go in two directions to formalize — pastels to show off carved wood furniture or dark heavy panelling. In each case, add moldings about four feet high all around the room with solid wood below and a formal wall covering above or in panels with mitred corners. These moldings, placed on a wall to be painted-and then’ antiqued, can be very unique and striking. Floors — plush carpeting with a minimum texture and in a solid color should be chosen if you have to re-carpet. The: beautiful scroll or floral prints in Axminster wool can truly set the stage for a formal atmos- phere, but defines what the rest of the room will have in specific colors and patterns. If the floor is to stay and isn't too patterned, consider adding a small area rug .— especially one with fringes on the edge — to define a formal "ea. Lighting — in the case of a dining room, there is nothing quite like chandeliers, prisms or fine fluted chimneys on lights to create a formal look. The new brass light fixtures with candle bulbs are fine in any setting. If the investment is too much at the moment, use lots of candles instead, and try auctions or second-hand stores for lots of crystal or silver- looking candle sticks. More soft lights are better than one very bright source of light. Accents — these are the most ‘important and, in many ways, the easiest to come by, since they are small. A cluster of tiny china florals, ash trays or figurines on any table or the mantel, silver pieces or well- polished brass give a classy look which will catch the eye on a table with the lamp directly lighting it. Big ferns on a tall stand can fill an empty space and are synonymous with formal de- cors, Statues have to be obvious marble or porcelain or they appear gaudy and can spoil the total effect. One single painting with a separate lamp placed ina space all it's own will achieve a formal feeling, especially if it has an elaborate antiqued frame. A small cluster of oval or square needlepoints in antiqued gold frames can really dress up a small bare wall, Basically, satins, velvets, porcelains, silver, brass, crys- tal, and lots of trims, tassels and fringes will formalize a room for you.
