Lesson Forty-Six Part One Do it Yourself
Did the writer repair his lawn mower in the end,why? why not?
So great is our passion for doing things for ourselves,that we are becoming increasing less dependent on specalized labor. No one can plead ignorance of a subject any longer,for there are countless "do it yourself" publications. Armed with the right tools and materials,newlyweds gaily embark on the task of decorating their own homes. Men,particularly,spend hours of their leisure time installing their own fireplaces,laying out their own gardens,buiding garages and making funiture. Some,really keen enthusiasts,go so far as to build their own computers. Shops cater for the do-it-youself craze,not only by running special advisory services for novices,but by offering consumers bits and pieces which they can assemble at home. Such things provide an excellent outlet for pent up creative energy ,but unfornately not all of us are born handymen. Some wives tend to believe that their husbands are infinitely resourceful,and can fix anything.
