It is building time now as well as growing time, and rare is the man without the itch to take out of the house and go for one chore or the other. In tune with the season, I'm , trying to use this space for a spell to j provide aid and comfort for build- I itchy readers. So we come to young Alex Ellen- bacher, Hungarian born, now a fac- I tory hand in New Jersey, and his new i house with living room, kitchen, din ette, bath, two bedrooms, full base ment, and a large attic in which more bedrooms can be made. Reader”« Digest tells that the house I was all built by Alex and his wife I with their own hands, except for in- I stallation of plumbing, heating, wir- | ing, and application of plaster. They I spent $8,600, and have a house ap praised at $14,000. Mr. Ellenbacher was a building j greenhorn at the start. How, then, did he even begin? Dress-Pattern House . . . Several times in this column news notes have given on the fact that most retail lumber dealers keep in i stock a pile of patterns for the build ing of all sorts of useful and ornamen tal objects of wood. These patterns serve the amateur woodworker and builder much as clothing patterns serve the home dressmaker. Most retail lumber dealers sell the pat terns. One, No. 910, is for a two- J bedroom home. The Ellenbachers knew where anr how to begin after securing Pattern 910, because it told what tools to get, and what materials, with directions on the position of every piece of lumber in the house and on marking and cutting each one. No question of the kind was left unanswered. ! The amateur was even told how to 1 buy materials as needed, a package each week or so. Two years seems to be the average time that such a "build yourself” pro ject takes. In terms of man-hours' cost, the savings over employing con tractors and carpenters are no great shakes. The thing is that with Alex, as with other cases I can name, the financial situation was such that it was build themselves in spare time or have no new home at all. Thus, self-building does not lose jobs and w'ages for people of the building trades but makes more jobs and wages. Such projects call for some skilled craftsmen at various stages. Without the self-building these calls would not come. ( Imrcli \ctivitirs HELP SCIENCE HELP YOU Give to the Rock, Oil Rock, Fill Rock My Own Size. . .

'HE answer may be: "let . . . I'm afraid so . . But, today, the doctor can say to .ncreasing numbers of cancer victims, 'No, it is by no means too late . . . There is much that u e can do . . . In fact, your chances for recovery .re good.” This heartening reply of medical wience gives us good reason to l<- iieve that, as the years go by, the .ncient dream of conquering tins disease will be realized. Cancer research supported by the American Cancer Society has already yielded new surgical techniques and improved methods of using x-ray and radium. More recently, research with radio-active isotopes has re vealed new facts about cell processes, hormones and certain anti-cancer drugs — thus making possible more effective control of some types of ancer. Part of the money you donate will >upport research that may save mil lions of lives. Give generously—so that sometime in the future doctors may never have to say: "I'm afraid it’s too late?” r North MUI City Sunday school at 10 a.m. Morning worship 11 a.m. Junior church 11:00 a.m. Evening service 7:30 p.m. Wednesday prayer meeting 7:30 p Phone 1906 Rev.
