Most men and all boys enjoy this sort of work and it becomes a chore only if they do not have proper tools to work with and a proper place to use them. A regular workshop can be fitted up In nearly every basement with a few hours’ work and slight expense. Many builders pay almost as much attention to the basement plan of a new house as to the living quarters. There are a few hard and fast rules to be observed in this: The Holland vapor-air heating plant should preferably be near the center; the position of the stairs is determined by those above; the fuel room must be near the driveway and close to the furnace, and, finally, the laundry tubs are most economically placed beneath the kitchen or bathroom plumbing. But a little ingenuity and intelligent planning usually will leave a good-sized space for an extra room, as in the case of the plan shown here, which was taken from an actual house plan and laid out practically, The presence of the Holland warm air furnace will keep the workshop warm and dry and with a good circulation of air at the proper humidity. The partitions are of matched lumber or wallboard to stand- ard 2 x 4 uprights. Cc The floor joists above % need not be sealed un- less for sound-deaden- ing. The masonry walls are not lined but may be painted or whitewashed, Nothing need be done to the cement floor, as it is the most suitable for this sort of room—easy to sweep and clean and hard to damage. bench is the only covering necessary. Lighting is an important feature as work undoubtedly will be done at night sometimes. If electricity is available, one or more extension drop cords should be run in, with a high-powered bulb and opaque shades. An adjustable slide slipped on the cord will enable the worker to move it about and hang it over the bench at the right height, The workbench and its stool should be placed under one of the windows. Build a rack for small tools on the wall above it. Shelves for larger tools, materials and articles in work will keep the room looking passably neat, as will a good-sized hinged box and a large waste basket with solid sides.

HAWK FINDS THAT TURTLE MAKES A GOOD TAXICAB Visitors at the county fairs where the animal exhibit of the state game commission is being shown are seeing a new adaptation of the old fable of the tortoise and the hare. A marsh hawk, confined in a cage with several turtles and unable to dem- onstrate the quick manner in which it can cover space, has learned to be con- tented with the speed of one of its cage mates. While confined in the offices of the Commissioner at Harrisburg one of the turtles and the hawk evidently became friendly. Finally the hawk, instead of walking about the cage, spent most of its time perched on the turtle’s back. Now the hawk seems satisfied with the slow method of transportation and de- pends almost entirely upon the move- ments of the turtle to get about the cage.

And this, in spite of the fact that of all diseases preventable by public health measures, smallpox is the easiest to control,” said Dr. Theodore B. Appel, Secretary of Health. “While Pennsylvania's smallpox rec- ord in the more recent years has been a very enviable one, it must be realized that vaccination alone has been re- sponsible for it. And it this connection the state’s vaccination law, which re- quires that all school children attend- ing public, private or parochial schools must be able to show satisfactory evi- dence of vaccination, has been an ex- ceedingly effective weapon against this dreaded disease. “The misconception, however, that only children need to be vaccinated is a more or less general one. Smallpox is no longer a childhood malady. Of the cases reported in Pennsylvania the vast majority for years have been adults who never submitted to vaccination. While smallpox occasionally is seen in children in this state, it has occurred only in the un-vaccinated of pre- school age in isolated instances also in children whose parents had succeeded in evading the vaccination law. “Many adults, having been vaccinat- ed in early life, are resting under the false security of life long security, which frequently does not occur. “By the simple and painless expe- dient of effective vaccination of every individual in the nation, smallpox, ex- cept for imported cases, would be non- existant in the United States. That this disease still shows its power in this country is therefore an indication solel yof personal carelessness and of disregard. “To aid intelligently in Pennsylvan- ia’s fight against smallpox, the follow- ing rules should be observed: 1. Have all children over one year of age promptly vaccinated. Do not defer until the health authorities insist up- on it. The compulsory vaccination law applies equally to the public, private and parochial schools. 2. If one is a mature person and nev- er has been vaccinated, be vaccinated without further delay. 3. If one is a mature person and has not been vaccinated since childhood, consult a physician regarding the ne- cessity of further protection. FARMERS MAY FIND NEW REVENUE FROM THE STUMPS “The pot of gold may be in, not un- der the old walnut tree stump. That is, if they are the right kind of stumps, and if you have enough of them.” That was the information made pub- lic yesterday by the officials of the De- partment of Forests and Waters, who report a good demand for old walnut stumps that are suitable for veneer. A representative of the department who is making special tree growth stu- dies in Western Pennsylvania has re- ported that agents in some sections are willing to purchase all walnut stumps that meet the requirements. He told of one instance near Mount Morris, Greene county, where a farmer gladly accepted $10 for three stumps. The agent agreed to dig them out and haul them away. The best walnut stumps, ofifcials said, are from large trees cut many years ago. The more aged and gnarled the stump, the better veneer it will make.
