A work shop in the home, fitted with va rioui kinda of too la, is becoming aim oat aa common as the long popular den. Woodwork is being taught in moat high schools and is an outstanding hit with boys and even a good number of young girls. , There are any number of pub lications and books packed with ideas, tips and directions. Pat terns are the latest thing on the market. The idea for these pat em? came from the tissue-paper patterns used in dress-making They are tremendously popular \ because of the simplicity of dir ections issued with each one. The patterns and directions are said to be virtually foolproof, even ' for beginners. Working with a pattern helps I the worker to proceed without wasted time, material or effort. The pattern-line includes such items as several stylishly differ ent types of balance to fit any window, lawn furniture, coffee tables and card tables several easy-to-build chairs and many more advanced projects. , Beginners are advised to get the feel of tools by making a few simple things before trying the more complicated projects. For those who are ready for extensive home craftsmanship, power tools, J such as an electric hand drill, electric jig saw, table saw, band saw and drill press are recom mended, In that order.
