In tbe summer when one wants to darken the moot against the Sun and: yet leave the windows opený it is, bard on polisbed fingernails to lift screens every time one wants to close the blinds,. Little, handles can be installed to close tbe blinds without disturbing tbe screen or even openîng the window. to C. E. Wickman Craig B.

Place for Sports' Para phernalia I15 A n Important Item With the growing interest in sports, ail the members of the family need sorne place to keep their golf clubs, tennis racquets, badminton bats, hockey sticks, skates, etc. The bouse that bas a large closet or smnall room that can be used for the accommo-, dation of such articles is lucky.
