Why neri. try rigging up a base-
ment playground to be used for wash-
day or for those dismal rainy days
when the young fry cannot go out
of doors? The equipment does net
have to be expensive and father
could likely be persuaded to lend
a hand with the preparation.
Get a few wooden boxes, to be used
as trains ,etc. Kiddies even like piling
them one atop the other and this
helps strengthen muscles while they
play. The child with imagination can
find any number of ways to use them.
Get a few boards at the lumber yard,
12" wide and varying in length from
about three to nine feet, Suspoaled
between boxes these become walks,
runways for cars, or bridges to Ie
climbed over, under or upon. When
elevated at one end you have a slide
and old bread wrappers to bit on II
a
'Mahe the. slide .041te 44, While you
are at the lumberyard Dee it they
have any .old m111 ,ends, rather could
cut these into blocks of 'WRNS. sixes,.
• Mother thing you could make
would be a basement wagon to save
time and labour in lugging the opt,
door wagon up and down .the stairs..
This can be made by putting four.
sturdy casters on .a wooden boa.,
.And why not have a sand box? For
the .sides of the sandbox ,use lumber
2" thick,, 8" to 8 " wide PO 4' long.
Across eithorend put a shelf by us- •
j;Ig boards the same depth and thick-
riesa as the sides of the box, but 4 feet
4 inches long You can use the base-:
merit floor for the base and it will
take about half a cubic yard of OM,
mon sand. The children will soon
learn not to throw sand around if
they know they will be taken from
the box and it takes only a few min-
utes to sweep up the little bit that
dribbles from the box or over the
edges of the shelf as loaded trucks
are travelling back and forth.
A very large cardboard box or
carton with a door and windows cut
in it will make a pladiouse and an
orange crate can be made Into satis-
factory cupboards where a variety of
treasures can be stored. If a large
enough carton is not available, a play-
house could be made from packing
crates, plasterboard, or even an old
blanket thrown over a wooden frame-
work. The wooden boxes used for
chairs, trains, etc, can be stored In
the playhouse when not in use.
The overall cost of the basement
playground is a mere trifle when com-
pared to ragged nerves for all con-
cerned on washday and you may be
able to think of numerous other

MODERN FAR Ii ING
DEPENDS UPON
POWER EQ IP E F T
The ability of Canadian farmers to "deliver the
goods" is due in a very large degree to their skill
and eagerness in adapting modern mechanized
equipment to their operations.
Now, more than ever before, fare eys ore looking
to machines to help them overcome the scarcity
and high cost of farm labor, to tho work done
quickly and at low operating cost, aacl to main-
tain and increase production.
Through continuous research and engineering
Massey-Harris has developed new and improved
tractors, combines and power machines which
prove helpful to users in establishing mere efficient
farm operation.

Basement Playground
Ends Washday Blues
A good many mothers of young
children have to wash in the base-
ment and know what a grim chore it
can be when the children are too
small to be left safely alone outdoors
or upstairs. Comparatively few of
these mothers are fortunate enough
to have tiled floors and finished walls
in the basement and their time i3
divided between running clothes
through the wringer and scooping
wee ones out of the coalbin, There
seems to be nothing for the children
to do but get into trouble and they
soon become cross and irritable. Long
before the last piece has gone through
the' wringer the mother feels as if she
