THE DEAR LITTLE CABIN.

! POPULAR AT THE SHOW. £150 FOR A HOME. A pretty little bungalow-like eotta-gc. with strong artistic and snug appearance, just opposite the entertainment platform in Xo. 9 shed, was one of the sensations at the show. Tn reality this I attractive little building is the latest 1 model of the modern seaside home as I devised by the McColl Timber Co.. of j Onehnnza, who have the reputation of I controlling the lareest timber yards in J the Dominion. This unique " cottage. I which is built in standardised sections bolted together, is designp 1 particularly as a seaside home, for which purpose it is probably the best on the market. Tn Iα total area of Kift by 12ft, this fine j little home, which will comfortably house a family of four adults and a child, can be constructed hy any amateur. This seaside crib with its partitions on casters and hinges, i* replete with all the first necessities for comfort. There is the square-like bay window with its built-in seat for storage, a little shelved cove for general purposes, and adjoining two built-in bunks on strong hinges which can be lowered parallel I with the wall or the top one lowered. I and you have a perfect settee. The par- |} it inn can be sivnntr back across the ibunks to convert the interior in'o a oneroom cabin. When the partition is up you enter a cosy liUle kitchenette fitted elaborately and well with a Dove stove, shelves, and cupboards for all domestic purposes. All the casement windows open or shut, at ease aceord'ne to the! weather. The roof is of corrugated iron with spouting all leading to one centre for tank arrangements. The complete cabin, with all fittinars. including stove. is £150 at the mill. The firm also caters for the making of shooting huts, cowsheds, garages and hams by the section method.
