If — Remember Desk in Attic IN MODERNIZING an attic, don’t forget the advantages of a built-in desk, like the one shown in the illustration.

The door may be made the same height as II . -- ^ \-S’ I ft the space between the shelves or) 1 it may extend above the top shelf.' In the latter case, you'll protect the contents of tne shelf and have a larger writing surface. Both fhe dealt door and the shelves are made similarly, by forming frameworks of 1 by Si inch lumber, fastening them to gether with corrugated metal, and gluing Masonite 3/16" Tem pered Presdwood to both sides.

A Room for Two Children ■y^'HEN two youngsters occupy the same room, ordinarily they have little privacy. However, by using a bit of imagination and ingenuity, the fix-it-them selves family can create a room that has two of everything, plus built-in privacy. First, the room is divided by means of an extra-wide divider desk and closets. This way, there’ll be a separate study and clothes storage area for each child. The separation of the epace is com pleted by a sliding door. Other features may include a radiator enclosure, fluorescent lighting, spacious drawers in the desks and an attractive soffit. Use of Masonite hardboards for the closet walls, desks, soffit and as underlayment for the flexible floor covering makes such a room improvement both economical and easy, A large variety of hard boards for the o purposes are available at lupiber yards. Hardboards made by Masonite Corporation, the pioneer producer, nre made by exploding'clean wood chips in huge guns and then compressing the fibers into thin, strong panels under extreme heat anjl pressure. Being all wood, ! Jhesc panels ipay be worked and ' finished like wood.

For the Home | Emergency Supplies 'p’OOD, water and light are often shut off to families whose homes have been damaged by floods, fires or other disasters. In the event of an enemy air at tack, these essentials of life would pose problems for all peo ple in the area. The answer is to keep emergency supplies in the home. * A A convenient and safe way to store the supplies is to use cov ered galvanized steel cans or pails. These containers are avail able in several sizes, so there Is one to fit the space needs of every family. They are strong and durable, so fire, moisture and rodents cannot destroy supplies kept in them. f. Items stored in tho contained should include bottled water, canned foods, flashlights, candlife and matcher. These are basjc ’ emcrgqpty supplies. A family which is isolate*! from its neighbors might al*i elect to keep a portable batterj powered radio and extra clothiiij among the emergency supplies, even though this may require using more than one cover*! ' metal storage can. An important point is to kei p the emergency cans of materia s' where they can be reached nuic i ly and easily NATIONAL TICKET For President Dwight D.
