Uuke fleet of to; battleshlpa like
the model In Fig. 1- It will not take
long, because I have designed model
made of parts that can be cut out and
assembled quickly. Having built the
fleet, you will have Iota of fun. Be
cause the model It mounted on wheels,
you can ran It upon laud aa well aa
sail It upon water.
In Fig. 2 la a drawing of every part
of the toy battleship, and In Fig. 3
te 8 you will find the same parts drawn
to scale with dimensions marked upon
them. If you build several shls, I
would suggest that you make all of
the parts for one boat, first, and then,
using these for patterns, mark out and
cut the hulls (A) for sll the other
boats, then the decks (B). then the
masts (C), and so on. The work of
cutting and assembling will be simpli
fied If you follow this method. A piece
of soft pine, cypress, or other soft
wood will be easiest to shape. In
marking out the hull, draw a center
line as shown In Fig. 3. and lay off
the measurements either side of It, to
get the sides alike. The upper deck
(B. Fig. 4) extends three-quarters of
the length t the bull, and it l of the
same shape as that portion of the hull ;
therefore it can be marked out with
the hull as a pattern. The holes shown
along the edge of the deck (Fig. 4) are
made to receive the guus of the sec
ondary battery, the holes along the up
per face are made to receive the masts,
funnels, etc. The position of each part
Is Indicated Id Fig. 2.
The masts (C. Fig. 5)) can be whit
tled or dowel-sticks of the given di
ameter can be used. The fighting-tops
(D and E. Fig. 5) are wooden button
molds. The larger one (D) must
have Its hole enlarged so It will slip
over the mast, the smaller one (E)
rests on top of the mast and Is held
in place with the nail F (Fig. 2) driven
into the mast-top. v.
Fig. 6 shows a funnel (g). Use a
dowel-stick If you can get one. other-
c p
wise whittle a stick to the given di
ameter. Bore out the top of each fun
nel if you wish.
There are two gun turrets K, Fig.
2) and the size Is shown in Fig. 8.
Whittle the guns (L) of the shape and
size shown In Fig. 8. and glue their
ends In holes made In the sides of the
turret. Drill a small hole through
the center of each turret through
which to drive nail pivot M (Fig. 2).
The aecondary battery guns (N, Fig.
2) are the ends of burnt matches. Fig.
8 shows the length.
Cut the" forecastle blocks H and I
Flg. 2) square, of the dimensions given
in Fig. 7, nail them together, and fas
ten to the deck with the peg J (Fig. 2).
The spool wheels (P, Fig. 2) have
stick axles (Q) cut to fit snugly In
their holes, and the axle ends are sup
ported by screw-eyes R, which are
screwed into the hull. Start holes for
the screw-eyes with an awl, screw the

screw-eyes into the holes, and then
drive the axles through the screw
eyes and spools.
The wireless telegraph aerial Is sus
pended between the must tops (Fig. 2).
; Use toothpicks for spreaders S. thread
for wire strands T and end loops V.
When fhe toy battleships have been
assembled, five them a coat of paint.
0lrrM J A Nnlf Halt I
Don't let the preparation of a stand
ard for the Christmas tree go until
the last minute.
In the illustrations are shown three
good schemes for standards.
The cross standard In Fig. 1 re
quires two pieces of 2 by 4. 18 or III
Inches long (A and B. Fig. 2). To
cross these pieces with tops even as
shown. It Is necessary to halve them,
that Is. cut from the center of each a
piece equal to the width of, and one
half the thickness of, the other piece,
as shown In Fig. 8. Then they will
fit into one another. Saw along the
sides of the notches, then split out the
wood between the saw cuts with a
chisel. The hole for the tree should
be at least 2 Inches In diameter. If
you haven't au expansion-bit that can
be set to rut a hole of this diameter,
bor a ring of small holes, and trim
up to the 2-Inch diameter with a
chisel. To the uuder side of A and B,
at the ends, nail the shoe-blocks C. It
Is not necessary to nail A to B, If you
make them fit snugly.
One advantage the standard In Fig.
4 has over that in Fig. 1 Is that it Is
not necessary to bore a hole for the
tree trunk. Also, It is more plenslng
In appearance. The plan view (Fig,
5) shows how the four arms A are
fastened so as to enclose a pocket for
the tree trunk. You will notice that
each piece is fastened with nails
driven through Its face into the end of
the adjoining member. A pattern for
arms A is shown in Fig. 6. Boards
inch or inch thick should be used.
The center shoe B (Fig. S). and the
shoes C, should be cut of the right
size to make projections of about
Inch.
A Christmas tree will not dry out
and drop its needles as quickly if
stood In water, and Fig. 7. shows a

collar with vestee to match. Ilk that
shown above.
Pretty Pcrtfder Bowls
Pretty powder bowls and basket are
sure of a great vogue for Christmas
gifts. The four pictured Include
a little basket covered with plaited
silk, at the upper left, and Just be
low It the puff attached to its cover
and ribbon-covered handle. A similar
basket, at the right. Is surmounted by
a little ribbon-dressed doll a dis
guised powder puff. At the lower left
a glass bowl supports a puff holding a
doll's head and at the right a net
covered Jar . enthrones a Jap baby.
Lace and ,Satin Piece
scheme which 1 have found successful.
For a water receptacle, get a wooden
or Iron scrub-pall (A, Fig. 8). Cut a
square block to fit In the pull bottom
(B), and through the center of this
cut a round hole to receive the end of
the tree trunk. Make a box of Just
the right size for the pall to fit In (C,
Fig. 9). Perhaps you can find a box
of the right size or one which will re
quire but little alteration. Make a
cover for the box out of two pieces of
board of equal width, as shown nt D
(Fig. 10), and notch the center of the
inner edge of each, so that the pieces
will fit around the tree, trunk. Pro
vide screws or hooks-nnd-eyes for
fastening tle cover bourds to the box
top. After setting the pail Into the
box, fill the square comers with sand
to make the standard more solid.
There , will be, Jio need of painting
the standards In Figs. 1 and 7, If you
dress them with crepe pui-er.
Wide satin ribbon and Val lace
give a good acconnt of themselves In
the attractive neckpiece shown above.
It Is a vestee and collar combined,
with a small "V-shaped chemisette
of lace, set in the vestee. The collar
and chemisette are edged with nar
row lace.
