Cut out pictures of rugs, flowers, dishes, lamps, stand spreads, etc., and also keep in the store.

! 6 Have the man and wife go to I the store and "buy" the furniture I they wish for their house.

7 Take a magazine or the cover of a small box and have it for an automobile. 8 When they get the furniture home they can hire a lady to help do some of the "work." 9 Next, place all the paper children "with a few ladies in a corner or nook and call it the Children's Home. The ladies are the matrons. 10 Have the man and woman go to the Children's Home and adopt several children; then, when they

"grow up," have more weddings,

Take a small slip of stiff paper and paste one end on the back of the furniture and bend the loose end out slightly so the article will stand. A good way to make a stand or table of the blocks and the way to make the lamp stand on it: Take two blocks or dominoes and stand on the long edge and place two more dominoes over the top of the others to cover tfiem. Cut out a colored stand spread of paper and cut a slit in the center just large enough for the base of the lamp to slip throueh, then slip it between the two dominos that cover the standing ones. This works well.
