HANDMADE SCRAP BASKETS.

YOU can make lovely scrap baskets,
singly or IN pairs, for your own
special room. With tall, round coffee
cans and scraps of colored silk or
fancy paper
First, enamel the inside of the can
to suit your color scheme and let 1t
dry thoroughly. Cut your silk in odd
shapes and glue these on the outside
OF the can. You can make a sort of
design with the plain and figured
pieces, or just put them on hit and
miss" If you're short of pieces, enamel
the outside some neutral shade and
cut your pieces to form a spray or a
geometric design around the bottom
Or cut silhouette Of black material
and use it with a white or bright
colored enamel background.
If you have some fancy wrapping
papers, you can work out quite a pic
ture-a horse and sleigh, stars, q
moon, tree or two. or a house and
flowers. There's plenty OF scope for
expressing your own individuality.
Use a contrasting band top and bot
tom. Cut the material or paper twice
the width you want the band to be,
and long enough to go around your
can. Now fold this and glue it to
form band inside as we'll as outside
the can. When the glue is dry, give
the finished can a coat of spar varnish
to protect 1t from wear and make 1t
washable.
These scrap baskets have the ad-
vantage Of being handmade and
unique as well as inexpensive.

Dear Sirs:
Returning home one Sunday night
after day in the country with my
girl friends, we were compelled to
cross a railroad track. It was after
dark and there were i've Of US in the
cab Of a truck.
Seeing what we supposed was the
headlight Of IN automobile on the
nearby highway, We started across the
tracks, only to hear the approaching
whistle Of q train.
Il leave you to imagine our panic
when we stalled, with this numbering
train moving steadily toward US! It
was horrible feeling!
I'VE piled out As fast as possible
and two Of the people pushed the
truck OF the rails. (We girls were too
frightened.) Breathing with relief ss
the train scared past, we realized that
it was . slow-moving train and that
we were not on the same track. But
it indeed was q scare and hope that
I will never have to experience it
again.

Meanwhile Jack cut the rope tying

swiftly into the boat. With q rough
command he ordered the two girls to
the front of the boat and turned to
start the motor.
