Show One Week... Complete Transformation In the course of a week a group of ambitious Brigham City women tackled a special upholstering class taught by Miss Bessie Hansen, home demonstration agent. The ladies arrived Monday morning, Feb. 2, at the Third ward Scout House with chairs, couches and foot stools that had seen much better days, and by Friday evening, Feb. 6, the items had been completely transformed. Tearing down the items and refinishing the wood took a good share of the first day. Many had spent weeks before sanding the wood. A penetrating wood seal, not varnish, gave the articles a completely new look. Next came new springs, padding, webbing, muslin undercov-erand finally the outer cover, Saw horses and tables raised US the upholstered items to a comfortable height for working. Lovely Victorian chairs, an antique chaise lounge, occasional chairs of various vintages, easy chairs, fireside chairs, platform rockers and an enormous hassock were among the items completed. The class is taught annually in early spring by Miss llanseti. Those learning upholstering techniques this year were: Mrs. Fullmer Allred, Mrs. Wallace Reeder, Mrs. Wayne Burt. Mrs. Reuben Rasmussen, Mrs, M. E. Gibbs, Mrs. Marvin Wright, Mrs. Frank Reeder, Mrs. Reed Simon sen, Mrs. Clair Huggins, Mrs. Mrs. Cecile Neal, Lloyd Davis, Mrs. Francis Todd, Mrs. Hazel Mclntire, Mrs. McLaren Funk, Mrs. Elbert Beecher and Mrs. Warren Hyde.
