This method furnishes the greatest difficulty in keeping tools from disappearing.
[Illustration: Fig.240.Nail and Screw Cabinet.] Even when tools are well arranged, one of the most serious difficulties in the way of shop order, is to keep tools in their places.

Pupils who are in a hurry, slip in the tools wherever they will fit, not where they belong.

Labels at the places of the different sets may help somewhat; a more efficient method is to paste or paint the form of each tool on the wall or board against which it hangs.
Pupils will see that, when they will not stop to read a label.
In spite of all precautions, some tools will disappear.

A plan to cover the cost of these, which works well in some schools, is to require a deposit at the beginning of the year to cover these losses.
Then at the end of the year, after deducting the cost of losses, the balance is returned pro rata.
[Illustration: Fig.241.An Inexpensive Locker for Unfinished Work.] There is diversity of practice in the distribution of tools on the general case and on the individual benches.

Some tools, like the plane and chisel, and try-square, are so frequently in use that each worker must have one at hand.
