There is no place like Boxville for a little doll’s home!
A charm from the fairies seems magic play there,
Which, seek through the world, is ne’er met elsewhere.
THE BOXVILLE GARAGE OR STABLE
Material Required to Make a Boxville Garage or Stable: one deep letter-paper box with its cover.
Here is a toy garage. It belongs to the residence of Mr. Doll of Boxville. Would you like to make a garage like it?
The box you will need to use for making a garage must be deep and square. Place it upon the table standing upon its rims. Then, the bottom of the box will become the top of your building, and you may place the cover over this and glue it to make a flat roof.
Upon the front of your box, draw a large square four inches in size. Let the base of this square come upon the outer rim of the box. The square is to be the large double door of the garage. (To cut the door, see [Diagram Two, B], page 167.) Cut the top line. Cut the base line. From top to base line cut another line dividing the doorway into halves to form the doors.
The doors will fold outward when you have finished cutting them. Paint them green, if you wish.
