We have been wasteful and I believe .it is probably time we stopped throwing away those bits and pieces. Let's see what we can do with them, This column will show you how to make a bun warmer from scraps of leftover mate- rial. 1 enjoy sewing by hand and small projects like these are easy to carry and sew on while I attend meetings and lectures. To begin, make a paper pat- tern. attern. Cut a large circle 141/2 inches in diameter. Divide the circle into six equal pie - shaped sections (Fig. 1) . To do this, measure from the exact center to the edge 71,4 inches. Now make a dot on the edge and measure from this dot across from edge to edge VA inches, then make a dot. Do this six times, then draw three diameter lines across the pattern by matching oppo- site dots. Now, using the same center point, draw a smaller circle inside the large one using a radius of one inch. Now erase all lines inside the smaller, circle; the remaining lines 61 inches in length are your sew- ingiine guides (Fig. 2). Using the pattern, cut three circles of material (cotton, linen, felt) almost anything washable, except knits, is sat- isfactory. Mark sewing guide lines with tailor tacks or sew- ing carbon. Now, to finish raw edge, sew with bias fold tape of con- trasting color or roll edges. I like rolled edges myself. When all edges are finished, lay two circles together one over the other and sew by hand small stitches on the lines drawn. You now have six little pie - shaped pockets. Place the third circle of material on top of the two in such a manner that the sewing lines lie half- way between the original sew- ing (Fig. 3). Sew this piece only to the center piece.

At this point attach two lit- tle snaps to the outer edge of the top piece midway between two of the seam lines. Attach a back snap at the outer edge center of the third wedge on either side (Fig. 2). This equally places the snaps one- third of the way around the circle. You may wish to sew a small loop in place of the snaps, add two small ribbons F;e4 in place of the back snaps, and tie in a bow through the loop (Fig. 2). When in use fluff out the pockets and fill the pockets with hot buns or rolls. It really helps to keep them warm. When not in use unsnap and store flat (Fig. 4).' These make lovely bazaar items and are especially nice made of felt; burlap -or Indian head. Experunent and have fun.

EXPANDED SERVICE TO FARMERS IN NORTH HURON Earl Long, Harry Winters, "Jack Van Bussel and Herb VerBeek, proprietors of Huron Tractor Ltd., are Pleased to an- nounce the official opening of their brand new John • Deere Service Centre in Blyth, the first of its kind in Ontario. They and their staff extend a cordial wel- come' to all to come and visit them at their new -facility in Blyth to see first hand the many ways they are prepared to service the farmers of north Huron and area. Earl Long, manager of 'the Servi a Centre, said, 'Over the years we havealways sold equip- .ment,in .the area but only in the past couple of .years has the equipment population increased to a point Where it became viable for us to invest in a Service Cen- tre. "Also many farmers wishing to pirchase John Deere equipment in thepast, have hesitated due'to the distance from their farms to Exeter. "This Service Centre concept is nothing new even though this is the first of its kind here in On- tario," said Earl Long. "There are many of them in the United States and atjeast eight in West- ern Canada. "The Service Centre will 'be operated much like a regular dealership in so much as sales, papts," and shop service are con- cetned. The only difference is that we will not be maintaining 11an outside inventory and display of new and used equipment: We will have a Parts Manager and initially two servicemen. "Sales will continue to be han- dled out of our Exeter location, but once you have purchased John Deere equipment from us, service will be provided at the more convenient location—de- pending on whether you are closer to Exeter or Blyth. "We at Huron Tractor Ltd. look forward to providing you with even better service in the future, and if you are contemplating new or used equipment, we urge you to consider the fact that service will no be available to you at two locations."
