Storage For School Supplies LAFAYETTE—PenciIs, papers, crayons, rulers, and books all need their special storage place, says Ezelle Johnson, Purdue university extension housing specialist. This space should be located near the study surface and should. be the proper height so that it can be easily reached by the user. If your first grader has shelves filled with toys, some of these might be rearranged to make room for school supplies. About 24 inches of shelf space would probably be adequate for the first two or three grades. Not only will this shelf serve to keep his supplies neatly organized, but having a special place for books will encourage his appreciation and care of them. Ready made, unpainted shelve may be purchased. These can be painted in his favorite bright colors or covered' with a selfsticking plastic. Sturdy cardboard boxes provide inexpensive temporary storage. Two or more cardboard boxes, nine to ten inches deep, can be fastened together with white liquid glue or masking tape. The surface can be painted with water base paints or covered with

self-sticking plastic. This gives * he child a unit of furniture all lis own and at a young age, owning something is very important. Shelving constructed of bricks and boards provides another type of storage. It is simple to make, economical, and very flexible. This structure can be adjusted easily and enlarged to meet various needs. Metal strips some in a free-standing pole style and others fastened to walls, have the same flexibility. Older children can make good use of drawer storage. If you have a small chest-of-drawers left from his infant days, this can ba easily converted for school supplies. It can be slid under a table or combined with a door or piece Os plywood to make a study and storage unit. If this is the year of planning furniture for the child’s roim, you may want to include stack units consisting of shelves, cabinets, and chests. Measure carefully to insure shelving of .adequate depth and a large work area. A peg board and or bulletin board offer added flexible space to store items that don’t S3em to fit shelves or drawers. Mr. and Mrs. David Gadsin and family of r 3 Syracuse lave returned to their home at Louisville, Ky., for the winter.
