With the simplest of items - ice cube trays, planks of wood, plastic pails, spray paint and new wallcovering - the room is easily and inexpensively transformed. A play space can be constructed in even the smallest of bedrooms. Designate a corner of the room as a place the child can all his own and build from there. A plank of wood installed at a height suitable for the child provides a counter with space for storage above and below. Plastic wastebaskets sprayed bright colors are perfect for housing stuffed animals, building blocks and other large playthings. They are safe, durable and easily managed by small hands. An array of dime store ice cube holders provides a way to hold children's small toys which usually get underfoot. The clutter disappears and the child does not have to look far to find his favorite tiny toys. The childs domain even becomes more his own when the walls are covered with favorite characters such as Big Bird, Ernie and the Cookie Monster.

The stripe pattern, Sesame Street on Parade is best used to accent a wall and can also be cut to form bands which easily wrap around the storage baskets, can finish a window shade or form a decorative chair rail. A cut-ou- t of Bert playing his guitar or Ernie clapping his cymbals blued to an ice cube bin is the perfect way to help the child identify what toy goes where. Big Bird, Ernie and the rest of the muppets marching around the storage items tie the whole activity center together. The bright colors in the wallcoverings can all be picked up as accents in the room. Use spray paint on wastebaskets and ice bins to creatively coordinate the play space in colors such as Popsicle orange, jungle green and daisy yellow. Every child loves a bright place to play. A simple makeover like this organizes toys, allows for a special place for the child to be creative and provides a happy environment.

If the water in the gauge glass is not clear, or if the water at the bottom of the boiler looks muddy, it would be wise to drain it from the valve at the bottom, and put in fresh water. In refilling, the water level should rise to about the midpoint of the gauge. Steam boilers usually have a cutoff outside the jacket, and at the bottom of this control there is a hand valve. That valve should be opened to allow any sediment gathered there to drain out, so the cutoff will be functional. If you have a heating system, the boiler and the entire system is full of water. It is a sealed systems, and generally it is not desireable to drain ttie water. When water is let out, fresh water automatically comes in, bringing dissolved oxygen with it, which can cause gurgling in the piping. Check the pressure gauge on the boiler. When the water is hot the needle should not be pointing to the red area on the gauge. If it is, the expansion tank probably needs rechargilow-wat- er hot-wat- ng. ffiST!J333liQ33 At or near the top of the boiler there is a pressure relief valve which is supposed to open if excessive pressure develops. When the boiler is hot, pull the lever on ths valve, making sure to stand out of the way of any discharge. A small discharge will show that this valve is operable.
