Fun With Paper Folding B y W m . D. M urray and F rancis J. R igney To allay restlessness, to cheer the sick and afflicted, to fascinate children, and to interest and entertain both young and old, the ability to make various simple objects by folding sheets of paper is all that one requires. “But,” you may say, “I have no paper-folding ability.” No matter, all you need is this book and some plain white paper. Under the wizardry of the au thors’ easily followed instructions, a plain square of paper becomes successively a Chinese “junk,” a ball, a rooster that flaps his wings, a cake basket, a motor boat, a fish that opens its mouth, a dog, a frog, and an almost unlimited number of other interesting objects. Profusely illustrated with charts showing each required fold, and complete with directions that will enable almost anyone to become proficient in the art and equipped to furnish amus ing entertainment for hospitals, sanitar iums, kindergarten work, junior classes, and “shut-ins" everywhere. 96 pages. 9J4 x 6^2 inches.

She outlines her methods with great clarity and then supplies the reader with a score of instances in which the method has worked successfully. This
