»—THE MILL CITY ENTERPRISE
By JIM STEVENS
Alex Builds His Own. . .
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.

“Is it too Ulte,
Doctor?”
SOONER OR LATER. 1 out of
every 5 living Americans may ask
his question about cancer.
'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?”
