The Peoples Outfitting company opens a contract department offering free interior decorating. The service plans entire home layouts, featuring walnut dining and bedroom suites, coil mattresses and alabaster lamps. No external decorator needed as staff designs and outfits rooms in one package.

It describes two dainty lamps with white crock bases, a yellow glazed chintz boudoir chair, and a den with a white utility cabinet and a five piece kitchen featuring a green finish with gold touches.
