business and bought all the BAN
quettes for $3.50. He moved them
in his own car. Then he bought
some sheets Of fibre glass and
some fibre glass string. He also
bought some used theatrical spot
lights and prevailed upon an art
list named Ota Gregar to hang
paintings on the wall and, pos
sibly, sell same. For $4,000, Gen.

would probably cost anybody else
$4,000 and then he added some
more showmanship.
He cooks everything at your
table on a gas stove and an cleo
trio stove which are on wheels.
He's a great guy for flames and
for using intense, sudden heat
for the finishing touch. To get
the kind of sudden heat he wants,
he uses an ordinary metalwork-
er's blowtorch. It's bit unusual
to see your steak cooked by blow
torch right in front of your table.

week would be likely to use it?
This should give you an accurate
idea of both what you really
need. and what you can At in.
For example. if you do most
of your cooking on top Of the

the right combination. These
two appliances could replace

A GUST RIGHT" LAMP
Three reasons are usually given
for do-it-yourselfing. It's fun
to make things yourself. It's
often less expensive. And the
only way you can obtain the
sizes and styles of some items
you need. is to make them.
This last reason is especially
important in apartments. since
most furnishings are still being
made with the idea that they
will be used in houses, and often
fairly large houses at that.
Take lamps, for example. We
recently spent many hours shop
Iping for a single table lamp
which had to be fairly high. and
yet have a small base and a
medium size shade. Actually
the lamp could have been made
in less time.
Lamps are among the easiest
of do-it-yourself items. All you
need is a light cord. a lamp
socket, wood. metal or glass for
the base, and a shade.

First. list all the appliances

of those which are indispensable,
and which you already have, such
as vacuum cleaner, fan, toaster
and coffee maker. Check off also
all those for which space could

against which there are apart
