City Toymaker Could Give St. Nick Lessons in Constructing Playthings Mrs. Maude Chriswell Has Delighted Children for 30 Years With Products, Made of Contents of Rag Bag, Waste Basket. BY HELEN LINDSAY , It may be true that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks But there are plenty of Indianapolis mothers who think Mrs Maude Chriswell. 3403 Broadway, could give Santa Claus a post-graduate course in toy-making. No twentieth century mechanical wonders are necessary for construction of the toys with which Mrs. Chriswell has delighted children
for more than 30 years. There are no patents pending on the playthings she fashions in instruction classes under the Parent Education schedule of the Governor's Commission on Unemployment Relief. If those toys were taken apart and examined carefully, they would reveal that they originally had been the contents of w'astepaper baskets and rag-bags. ‘‘Money Not Needed" ‘‘l am trying to show mothers that they don’t need money to teach their children how to play," Mrs. Chriswell explains. "There is nothing in (he home that needs to be thrown away. Everything there can be utilized in the home-manufacture of some useful article or toy.” Demonstrating this point, she points to her dining room table, the top of which is covered w'ith ingenious and colorful p’lythings which would put the most modern toy shop to shame. Paint Gleams on Toys A set of doll living-room furniture gleams with bright paint. There is a divan, on which two paper-doll ladies are seated, apparently conversing. Originally the divan was a small candy box. At the piano (which once w'as a cardboard box containing cleansing tissues) a small paper-doll gill is resting from practicing her music lessotl. The sheet of music leans on a rack which on close observation proves to be a paper match folder. The floor lamp near by is made of the cardboard spool on which a bolt of ribbon formerly was wrapped. The shade is made of the inside of a Christmas envelope, pasted on a piece of shaped cardboard. There is furniture for other rooms of the doll house, all the results of Mrs. Chrisw'ell’s clever fingers. The gas stove is made of other cardboard boxes, and the gas is turned on, in make-believe, of course, by small keys which once opened sardine cans. More Use for Cardboard Tiny cooking utensils have been made from round cardboard boxes, and the dining table, which was made of a corrugated box, is covered with a white crepe paper table cloth, and set with dishes also made of round cardboard boxes. The food has been cut from advertisements, and in the cupboard at the side, there are other supplies. Mrs. Chriswell has cut out houses, mounted them on cardboard, and with them quickly constructs a miniature city residential section. From the automobile advertising, she has cut automobiles to run along the street in front of the houses and paper-doll children play along the sidewalks. At the corner is a filling station, all of paper and cardboard, with the exception of the gas-tanks, which are talcum powder boxes in disguise. A home-made stop and go signal is in the center of the intersection. “This is an effective way to teach

grown-ups will get a laugh out of this skill game, I do believe. It’s just one of the array of playthings I saw in the Toy Dept, at the PEOPLES OUTFITTING CO. Better take the children in to see Santa Claus and have their pictures taken. You might interest yourself in some of the toys while they consider buying your present in the Gift Shop. Half-prices prevail on these things as well as the games.
children safety rules,” she explains. ’They can understand that they should not disobey traffic signals any more than they would want their paper-dolls to.” Mrs. Chriswell began her work when her own daughter was a small child. Two years later she took a kindergarten course, and later taught in the Grand Rapids (Mich.) kindergartens for 24 years. Mrs. Chriswell began her classes for the GCUR in October, and now teaches daily classes at Schools 33, 41, 32. 22 and 39. and at the Meridian Heights Presbyterian Church. Only a Sideline "Toy making is really only a sideline of the course which lam giving the mothers," she explains. "In addition, we have study classes on family and home relationships: the use of money and budgets and leisure time activities. "But the mothers have been so enthusiastic over this home manufacturing. that we have enlarged on it.” In the last few weeks. Mrs. Chrisw'ell has been demonstrating in addition to the making of home-made toys, making Christmas gifts and tree trimmings. No Sodas Needed Ice-cream soda straws have been cut in inch long strips, and strung alternately with round colored pieces of paper, for tree trimmings. Mrs. Chriswell has taught mothers and children to make Christmas bells and Christmas greeting cards. Tin boxes which originally held medicine have been laquered and decorated. for stamp boxes and pin trays. She has taught the mothers to make games for their children, by placing nails in a board, marking them w'ith scoring numbers, and using canning rubbers to toss over them in a mock horse-shoe game. If she were to be asked to giv<* mothers and children a motto by which to live in depression days, she probably would point to the things made of discarded materials. "Waste not. want not." Mrs. Chriswell would say. "Not even tor entertainment.” SORORIT FmOTHERS TO AID MISSION Dolls are to be brought, by members of the Tri Psi Sorority, mothers’ organization of Delta Delta Delta Sorority at Butler University to a Christmas party at 2 Friday at the chapter house, 809 W. Hamptondr. Mrs. R. C. Cashon, social chairman, and her assistants announce that the dolls are to be given to the Wheeler City Rescue Mission. Other members of the committee include Mesdames Walter Jones, F. P. Tretton, E. D. Ten Brook, J. H. Patton and Thomas Bowser. The program for the afternoon is to include songs by Mrs. Conrad Graph wold, accompanied by Mrs. Russell Sanders who also is to tell the Christmas story.
