Show The Salt Lake Tribune Sunday Magazine November 27, 1883 S21 Build it yourself with patterns your baby in cradle steeped in history Rock-a-by- e by Steve Ellingson THE ROCKING cradle was born back in Colonial America when leisure time was especially scarce. Even after a long day of waking at sunrise, doing household chores, feeding the livestock, and tending the farm, evenings were not entirely spent in relaxing. Families would gather in front of the fire to do mending, reading, quilting, schoolwork . . . much the same as families may gather now in front of the television set. Today, as it jlid yesterday, the convenience of a combined rocker and cradle allows someone to keep the baby happy while being productive. You can build this rocking cradle, t steeped in American history, with the e help of our pattern, instructions and photos. It measures 50 inches long and the cradle is full-siz- step-by-st- designed to hold a standard 13 inches by 28 inches bassinet mattress, two inches thick. To maintain a Colonial look, dowel construction was used through- out To obtain an Rocking Cradle Pattern 644, send $3.75.

These outlets either accomodated the plug-i- n type jack that allowed you to move the phone from room to room, or were hard wired for a permanently connected phone. If you live in an apartment, with only one phone and could use a phone in another room, you can now easily expand your existing system with little effort and little cost. The new regulations permit you to run your own lines and the ll modular fittings make it easy-to-insta- possible. First, plan where you want your new outlets, then consult either your super-- - intendent or your local phone company on how best to proceed. You may merely require an entrance modular jack to terminal, or replace your hard-wire- d a network is called what need you may interface. With either one you can then run your lines along the baseboard, around a doorway or drill a hole in the wall to gain access to the next room, run the line under a carpet, etc. The exact installation problem will vary with each apartment, but the best procedure is to first mount your modular jack on the wall or baseboard and then run your lines. But be sure to plan your job first We also publish four hardcover books on Carpenfi7, Plumbing, Electrical and texts, hunConcrete.
