Il y a peu de projets qui offrent l'opportunité de commencer par le haut, mais c\u2019est l'endroit logique, pour débuter, en construisant votre salle de jeux au soubassement.Voici deux bonnes raisons pour le bricoleur de commencer au niveau du plafond: (1) \u2014 Un plafond fini constitue une amélioration visible immédiatement, et (2) \u2014 un plafond de tuiles acoustiques aide à diminuer le son du sciage et du bruit, au fur et à mesure que la pièce prend forme, selon un spécialiste en améliorations pour les maisons.Un bricoleur peut construire une salle de jeux en trois étapes le plafond, les murs et minalement recouvrir le plancher, à temps perdu, selon Bill Herbert \u201cCeci lui permettra d\u2019espacer ses dépenses pour son matériel sur une période de temps et aussi de garder l'endroit pour son ouvrage, libre de matériaux, qu'il n'a pas besoin imme- diatement.\u201d Pour préparer un plafond, pour le posage des tuiles, Me.Herbert suggère de clouer des lisiéres d'agrafes de 3\" de largeur sur les solives, 12 pouces au centre.Commencez la première lisière à ras du mur.La deuxième lisière devra être espacée pour le centre soit à la même distance du mur que la largeur, d'une tuile de bordure.Deux clous devront être utilisés à chaque croisée.L'opération suivante consiste à insérer en-dessous des solives des \u2018joints minces, pour assurer un bon niveau.Lorsque toutes les lisières sont en place, une paire de blocs de bois devront être cloués entre les solives, là où le système d'éclairage sera placé.\u201cFaites votre pilan d'agencement, et commencez avec une tuile de bordure, dans un coin.\u201d Me Herbert explique.\u201cPlacez les tuiles de la bordure de chaque côté de la première.La première tuile entière, sera la quatrième ajustée en position.Chaque tuile devra être tenue en place avec quatre agrafes 46\u2018 ou clous\u2019.Il ajoute que des tuiles de bois en fibre acoustique, peuvent être coupées avec une scie bien aiguisée, pour être bien ajustées au bord des appareils d'éclairage ou sur le long des bords, où le couvage est nécessaire.\u2018\u2018Et pour le plafond, les panneaux de bois GYPSUM, sont plus faciles à poser lorsqu'ils sont placés au-dessus des lisières, continue Me Herbert.Les lattes de, un pouce sur SPRING IS HERE Time to Improve Your Home.ADD EXTRA LIVING SPACE BUDGET PLAN AVAILABLE NO MONEY DOWN \u2014 UP TO 3 YEARS TO PAY ADD A ROOM .LUMBER, PLYWOOD, AROMATIC CEDAR BUILD À PATIO .- CALIFORNIA REDWOOB, FILON FIBREGLASS ENCLOSE YOUR PORCH .KNOTTY PINE, MAHOGANY PANELLING BUILD A FENCE .CEDAR, PINE NE I IN NUE 4, KNOTTY PINE PANELLING Special 1\u201d x 6\u201d x 10\u2019 21° ht.METROPOLITAN DAVE.TOWN OF MOUNT ROVAL JEARER LUMBER CO.LTD.50 Stinson Bivd.\u2014 St.Laurent Rl.8-6167 Sediment-free News In Lumber Used As The New \u2018\u201c\u2018engineered lumber\u2019 is far more than a selling phrase; the improved product can help reduce building and maintenance costs and contribute to more beautiful walls.This is the announcement of a leading research engineer of a firm which manufactures wood products in plants across the nation.The term is applied to advanced construction lumber .the material for wall studs, floor joists and roof | rafters.This is lumber nominally 2x4 to 2x12 inches in size.Now, this lumber called *\u2018com- .mon dimension\u201d in the trade, | is being manufactured to new size and quality standards so the pieces are strong, more stable and hold nails tighter.| \u201cIn effect, the new drier ma-! terial adds hidden value that helps reduce maintenance costs,\u201d says Williston.Most all the shrinkage of the lumber | occurs while the lumber is being dried at the mill so the framework is solid and stable in the house, he explains.Equally important, the dry: lumber holds nails tighter and thus guards against nail-pop- ping in plasterboard, an unsightly and costly failure, \u2018\u2018Good construction, either in a new home or a room addition, is a combination of many good materials and particularly good workmanship,\u201d he adds.\u201cBut dry framing lumber can help provide a vital backbone for interior wall surfaces that have last.: ing beauty.\u201d | He acknowledges that not! all manufacturers are prcduc- ing framing lumber to the new specifications.However, he said, the word \u2018dry\u2019 now is stamped on material that is kiln-dried (preseasoned) at the mill to the more rigid specifications, rose spray now offered Rose fanciers now have what they've been looking for.It's Gardal, a sediment-free rose spray from Green Cross.It does away with the need for five or more separate insecticide and fungicide products which had to be mixed together to obtain control of the insects and diseases in one spray operation.Gardal, a true liquid, leaves no residues on rose plants.Gardal is said to control both insects and diseases on roses.It combines a systemic insecticide and a systemic fungicide, giving protection from within the plant against such diseases as Black Spot and Mildew.Gardal is said to arrest Black Spot even when it has already attacked the leaves.It also controls Aphids, Mites and common chewing insects as well as Mildew.The product is available at all garden centres.trois sont préférables pour cet ouvrage \u2014 et peuvent étre fixées à un mur en ciment avec de petites barres métalliques, faites spécialement dans ce but.\u201cCes lisières devront être posées horizontalement, 16\" centre au centre, excepté dans les coins, où deux lisiè- res verticales, devront être posées pour assurer une sur-: face continue, pour le cloua-' ge\u201d.| Des panneaux de bois pour le mur.faits en feuilles régulières de quatre sur huit pieds, peuvent être posés directe;

Organize Workshop A well.organized home workshop is the starting point for successful home improvement projects, large or small.Whether your work area is elaborate or makeshift, home improvement and repair jobs will be easier to handle if your workshop is clean and uncluttered.First, keep the entire work surface clear.A simple pegboard for hanging tools above the workbench not only clears the work surface for action, but puts tools within safe and easy reach.Smaller odds and ends belong in storage drawers and shelves.By labeling each storage drawer you'll find it's simple to keep track of assorted nails and wood screws, glue, steel! wool, spare parts, sandpaper, and small articles waiting to be repaired.An excellent no-smudge label may be made by printing on masking tape with a ballpoint pen.Eliminate oily rags, which not only create clutter, but are a major safety hazard.Mount a paper towel holder on the wall within easy reach, and use disposable Kleenex Towels for during and after- the-job clean-up.Be sure to keep a jar of mechanics hand cleaner near for cleaning tools hañdles as well as hands.Remember that the next job will be easier if you leave the workshop in order.After each use, clean tools and hang on pegboard.Return nails and small items to drawers.Wipe off work surface with an absorbent paper towel and linseed oil or a liquid wax cleaner.Discard used towels and repair materials and you're in \u201cworking order\u201d for the next job.Aluminum siding insulates as it beautifies, keeping your home warmer in the winter and cooler in summer.This material will not warp, rot, or crack, and it seldom needs painting.Most panels are pre- coated inside and out, and the surface is durable baked enamel, order firms often advise with planting plants.Garden Centers not only advise, but often have do-it- yourself landscape counters, or departments which draw plans with the actual planting to be completed by the home owner himself.Other nurservinen may call at homes.if desired.to advise on planting.There is no single system used by all nurserymen, who usually adapt their procedure to the demands of the areas served.Good sources of planting information also may come from the garden and home magazines, from nursery catalogues, in some cases, and from university extension services, as well as from nurservmen, Some home owners have great success doing their own planning, but by far the majority, obtain advice from nurserymen.For professional landscape plans, charges usually are made, although some nurserymen work out a planting design without charge if the plants are purchased from them.However the planting of the home property is accomplished, the Amercian Association of Nurserymen Stresses the need for sound planning to insure full satisfaction from your plantings.CLEAN COMMUNITIES ARE SANITARY The fast, efficient system of household refuse removal now accepted as a normal event in today's modern living was pioneered and perfected by Sanitary Refuse Collectors.Homeowners in communities served by Sanitary enjoy the finest service in the World at the lowest cost per household in North America.Sanitary now services 32 communities in the Greater Montreal area, as well as large and small industrial and commercial plants, TOP AIDS TO BETTER EVERYDAY LIVING MOYENS SURS POUR JOUIR D'UN MEILLEUR CONFORT JOURNALIER / ANS ETABLIE peus | YEARS ESTABLISHED Your Exclusive Dealer Votre vendeur exclusif Meilleur Service in Verdun For: dons Verdun pour: COMET\u2014METEOR Notre département de service MERCURY\u2014LINCOLN CONTINENTAL équipé avec ce qu'il y a de plus and BRITISH FORD\u2014 moderne plus nos mécaniciens MERCURY TRUCKS experts vous assurent un service de qualité rapide et approuvé par le manufacturier.'64 MERCURY BETTER SERVICE A large service department completely equipped with the most modern equipment and most expert mechanics assures you of the fastest and very best factory approved service.\u201864 COMET DIRECTIONS VERDUN LALONDE o No» ~ ?TUNNEL 2 + ATWATER + Enroll Now!

Canada is experiencing an unprecedented home improvement boom.Housing economists maintain that the amount of money spent to improve older homes will equal \u2014 and possibly exceed the amount of money spent on new home construction within five years.A few think that point already has been reached.There are solid economic reasons for the increasing interest in remodeling.In the first place, it\u2019s good business for home owners.While three or four thousand dollars spent on a major purchase such as a new car will melt away in only a few years, money spent on home improvement provides an investment that will grow in value.Experts say a thoughtfully conceived and carefully executed remodeling project actually can add more value to a home than the project itself costs.Another reason for the remodeling boom is that many home owners are finding they can expand their existing homes for less money than it would cost to move into new, bigger homes.The Douglas Fir Plywood Association, -a non-profit trade association wthich has done extensive work in the Add-A- Room field.says a typical example of costs works like this: A family that owns a 1,000 square foot home purchased 10\u201d years ago for $12,000 probably needs room to expand.Assuming that the family needs dictate a room addition of 12 x 16 feet.the cost can be expected to run about $2.800.This would bring the family\u2019s investment to $14.800 for a home with 1,192 square feet \u2014 or a house that costs between $12 and $12.50 per square foot.New homes construction throughout the country averages about $15 per square foot \u2014 it would be difficult to buy a comparable new house for less than $18,000.In addition, moving to a new home usually entails a number of \u2018\u2018unproductive\u201d costs, such as the cost of moving, title clearance, and real estate commission.There are also added costs in new landscaping and frequently in ned drapes and new rugs.Then.too, there is the problem of leaving familiar neighborhood.and its church, and schools to move to a new home that is problably farther from the heart of town.What it boils down to is that the home owner frequently See the latest flexible finds the space his growing family needs in his own back yard, The plywood asociation suggests that an add-a-room project that takes only a few weeks can produce solutions to years of accumulated family growth problems.However, the association adds that an add-a-room project is not simplest, nor the cheapest kind of home improvement.Remodeling costs, according to DFPA, run about the same as new construction costs.In addition, there are design and construction problems that are unique in remodeling situations \u2014 for instance, the contractor usually must allow a certain amount of money to tear out or build around and existing structure.Even so, added space is one of the surest ways to increase the value of most homes built since World War II.To help home owners and remodeling contractors, the association has developed two basic room plans that can be adapted to fit almost aay home.The plans are in two basic sizes \u2014 12 x 16 feet and 16 x 20 feet rooms.The rooms are intended to functions as family rooms and bedrooms, and details are included for a full-size bath in the larger room and a halfbath in the smaller.In addition to the design ideas, the association is offering tips on how to select a remodeling contractor, what to do about plans and specifications, the requirements of a workable remodeling contract, financing possibilities and notes an decorating solutions.Most remodeling contractors, National Association of Home Builder chapters; lumber dealers and National Home Improvement Council chapters have copies of the working drawings produced by DFPA.bé ONTREAL UTO RADIO TWO NEW 1964 RADIOS TO FIT EVERY CAR DELUXE UNIVERSAL PUSH BUTTON CAR RADIO © AI Transistor © Push button with tone control @ Completely installed in your car, including antenna 69° ® One year guarantee coast to coast Drive in for on the spot installation A.R.365 PORTABLE AUTO RADIO A High Quality auto radio when installed in your and elegañce, too.in your kitchen.e Complete new installations or remodelling.ONE CONTRACTOR ONE JOB © ONE PRICE Hanover.HANOVER KITCHENS (QUEBEC) LIMITED 348 Victoria Ave., Westmount Phone: 482-4300 car .À deluxe portable when out of your car .REG.$89.95 Now Special $79.75 - Completely installed in your car.Including extra speaker and antenna WHILE YOU WAIT bé ONTREAL UTO RADIO Service on oll makes and models while you wait 2026 Minto Ave.Rear 5411 Upper Lachine Rd.(between Decarie & Girouard) 482-7190 482-7191 s « SIMPLY BRIGHT IDEA ! Inexpensive Towels Perk Up The Kitchen All of us have to consider the economics of remodeling.Many can afford tearing down and building up again , .yet there are many who can\u2019t, but still want to create a new and different look.In a kitchen, it's amazing what some new towels will do! .They can add a handsome dash of diverting detail, and prove that skillful choices can work within the limitations of the budget.Once thought of merely as functional items, towels and their counterparts can now be had in a range of clear, fresh colors which revitalize quicly and easily.And, they are so much more than thirsty bits of terry.Today, shopping for kitchen toweling can be a kitchen decorating spree! The ensembled collections by Morgan - Jones provide the homemaker with so many choices of patterns and colors, that it\u2019s a cinch to find something to \u2018go\u2019 no matter what type of kitchen, To select a long - wearing iowel, there are three quality elements to inspeet ., .the underweave; the loops; and the selvages.The underweave is the backbone of she towel and should be securely woven.Loops should be close enough together so the underweave is not readily seen.Selvages take hard strain, so they should be tightly woven, Terry is so easy to care for, too.It goes right into the washing machine, and never needs to be ironed.To assure always having a fresh.clean towel for the job, it's well to keep two sets handy to the kitchen sink.One sel can be earmarked for drying hands and the other can be used for drying dishes.Dish towels, cloths and potholders should be bleached occasionally to remove stubborn stains.Also, it's smart to hang them outdoors for drying.The sun and air will help to sweeten them.Terry towels need not be limited to just drying dishes and hands.either.Considering the colorful designs these days, they are worthy of finer things.For example, towels can be turned into splendid curtains for the kitchen or even the eating area of the kitchen.Even the amateur seamstress can, by hand or with a sewing RENE SAINT-JEAN, PRESIDENT SPECIALISTS IN

for one window.If more fullness is desired, three can be used at top and two below.Another cute idea, is to make placemats and table runners, to coordinate.Panels For All Rooms The swelling population and the shrinking dollar have led to an increase in professional and do-it vour- self remodeliing projects.The cost of new housing and the expense of moving often prevent a growing family from secking new quarters.Instead, the homeowner invests in redecorating or | an add-a-room project.Pre- finished paneling often proves an ideal material for refurbishing the home or finishing an additional space.Producers of building products find that family decorators now are aware of the wide selection of interior paneling in all price ranges, but as for direction in the treatment of these panels for certain \u2018problem\u2019 areas such as: Extra high walls To minimize heights, install grooved panels horizontally or combine a paneled wood wainscoi with wali- paper or paint.To emphasize heights use one or more grooved panels one above the other, Match grooves and but joints for a visually vertical effect.Narrow hallway Use a light-toned ungroov- ed plywood panel on walls and ceilings or finish ceiling with grooved panels \u2014 the grooves running across the hall from side wall to side wall for a widening effect.If ceiling is too high, install a suspended light fixture and create a gallery for paintings or photographs.Bathrooms Prefinished plywood paneling is practical except for tub and shower enclosure where the wood look may be continued by installing a high pressure laminate \u2014 like Micarta \u2014 in a mateh- ing or contrasting wood- grain pattern.Micarta should be bonded with waterproof contact glue to a substrate such as Novoply particle board.Closets Perforated hardboard panels are ideal for hanging house cleaning accessories and tools, For a winter storage closet, aromatic red cedar paneling is inexpensive and decorative.i Humidity in kitchens Permagard plywood pancl- ing for walls, cabinets and doors features a thermoplastic finish, developed specifically to withstand high humidity and heat.For count- ertops, sink and back-splash areas, use a high-pressure laminate.Both materials require only a damp \u201cwipe\u201d for maintenance.(Continued from page 3%) Seemingly minor additions \u2014 maybe a new sola, end table, hi-fi set or even new

Maison Moderne, Week Ending April 18, 1964 36 New Type Of Range Gains Favor With Ladies Builders and homemakers are showing considerable interest in the new *\u2018slip-in\u201d type of gas range.This report comes from the Gas Appliance Manufacturers Association which explains that the slip-ins have a built-in appearance but don\u2019t involve built-in installation costs.\u201cThis is not to say that a built-in range isn\u2019t equally efficient,\u201d says GAMA.\u201cIn fact, where space-conscious people are concerned, it may be preferred because, after all, its oven - and - broiler section is countersunk in a wall at eye height and its top surface burners go into a countertop, meaning that a built-in occupies littie or no floor space.\u201cBut the slip-in gas range can be installed several ways.It can either be set against the end of a kitchen counter to provide work space to the left or right of the cook-top or it can be slid into a space cut out of the middle of the counter.Some models, with owen and broiler section located above the top cooking surface, can be hung from the kitchen wall over a counter.\u201d GAMA points out that, while the familiar \u201c\u2018free - standing\u201d gas ranges continue to outsell \u2018\u2019built-ins\u2019\u2019 and \u2018\u2018slip-ins,\u201d the latter models are rapidly gaining favor.HOME HEATING SERVICE WITH

own \u201cgreen thumb\u201d achievements.And it\u2019s amazing how pretty flowers look in pictures.Start with an easy-to-use camera and a good supply of color film.One model that\u2019s recommended for backyard shooting is Kodak's Reti- nette 1A Camera \u2014 a precision 35mm model that operates with snapshot ease.It features a large viewfinder that shows the subject almost natural size within a bright, projected frame.It can be used to take prints in color or black-and-white, as well as color slides.And here are some reminders to help you in shooting the garden scene: See that your flowers look their Sunday best before you start clicking.Dried leaves and blossoms should be removed.If you're cutting away dead blossoms on roses or other flowers where there is a relatively large stem, cut away from the camera position, If the cut stem of a rose shows, it becomes a distracting white dot in your picture.Its a good idea also, to clean up the ground around the flower to be photographed as much as possible, and to break up any large lumps of soil.The sky, lawns and the bare earth provide natural backdrops for your photographs.Or, for variety, use some inexpensive poster boards as backgrounds.Your neighborhood stationery store or art supply store can offer you a selection of colors so you can choose the shadeg that compliment your flowers best.You won't need a lot of complicated equipment to photograph flowers.But, if you plan to take close-ups, a close-up attachment or Kodak Porta Lens will be a big help, With such an attachment, the zone of sharp focus may be only a few inches \u2014 sometimes less.VALIANT CHRYSLER DODGE IMPERIAL DODGE TRUCK SEE & DRIVE The all new 1964 value leader of the year complementing every taste the year's most beautiful car the

artistically around the grounds.Lighting should be planned to serve, of course.It should provide proper illumination for each activity \u2014 diffused light for reading and close work, soft lights for conversation areas, etc.In planning lighting, be sure to consider the placement of the switches, These should be located near entrances to rooms or close to the spot where the light will serve.Lamps
