Maybe We Canadians Shouldn't Kick Only 86 persons in Britain are left with yearly incomes of more than £6,000 ($16,800) after taxes, ~ government figures show. --1In-1939-there were 6,560 -persons-- in this category; the annual report of the Island Revenue Department showed. Names of the 86 were be persons who made their money long before the war. The majority of Britain's 20,000,- 000 -workers were left withthe equivalent of between $14 and $28 a week, the report said. Most businessmen iin the upper. grades pay income tax of 19s. 6d. on the. pound sterling--97.5 pec cent. A man making the equivalent of $5,600 a year pays 45 per cent of it in income taxes. not .re- . vealed" bit most were believed to .Home- weaving 'More Than A Hobby Now Hand weaving may have practically a lost art during many "interim but it can hardly be considered so now with an e¢stiy mated 150,000 weavers in the United States at work on looms ¢ither as a 1®bby or a means of livelitivod. . Some of them hdve taken weaving 'as a hobby and work "at looms in their homes, even in tiny apartments, Those who have ore, years, space lave as many as {ive or six' looms, ranging in size: from-<small 16- incli ones to those of regulation size. & Clothes for Fauiily One woman makes beautiful tex tured tweed - suits, not only for herself, but suits and an, overcoat for her --husband -as well. Many weave clothes for themselves; and a style in which smocks, skirts, blouses, and- evening gowns were nrodeled, created intense in- terest with all who saw it. Hand- loomed items such as table mats, dresser scarves, guest towels, tablecloths and napkins are much in demand as gilts. Many women support themselves on their 'daily output from their home Jooms. One 'woman raised two small boys on her show been up carning's* | Now she teaches weaving in a local" "craft center and her "two sons, married and with families, weave their own (raperies. ~ . Hand looming lends itseli par- ticularly well to modern cffcets be-~ cause of the striking texture and unusual color combinations achiev- ed. There are those who started out weaving as a hobby and are now among the lading modern "design- ers; showing their textiles fre- quently in .modern-design exhibits. Several small communities in Mi- chigan are now practically support- ed by weaving projects, which sup- ply decorators with fabrics. Leaders point out that weaving is not excessively costly. The very small looms which can be used for weaving small scarves, and mats, and for working out, desings, sell _for under $20. Partabic looms which -will-weave sizable pieces arc around $40, and full-size looms 'can be purchased for women report that their husbands have made looms to fit their special "weeds." The growth of wand weaving has been accompanied by a rise in weaving guilds. Some ard organ- ized mainly for. exchange oi ideas of individual members who at home and are known as "weavers." Others serve as operative exchanges for exhibit and sale of work. As a community coutribution members often serve as craftsjin- structors in army, navy, and vet- cands' hospitals... Their coopera- tion with local art leagues and mu- "lone seums 1s helping to make many cities hand-weaving and textile conscious.

Remember the news story last week about the meteori.e flashing across the sky? Well, For . when the news broke 1 remarked-- "Now wo can look for some dras- tic change in the weather." ~ And one can deny' that we: got it! Last "week must surely have set some kind-of heat record for late fall. But wasn'y it wonderful--even though it does male it a little hard- er to accept the snow than if we had led up to it gradually, Maybe some of you industrious people made. good use of tlre sunny days to get an extra spot of hoyseclean- ing-done.- I had other ideas. -1-had quite a few trips | had been want ing to make for ages--partly busi ness, as my trips, usually are: Ll "T thought, now is the time , . when the weather gets cold and rough I have no ambition to travel around very much, especially if I have to "drive the car myself. went on my round of visits, ind on Sunday 1 was away part of the day: every . dav of the week. However, none of very long--all within a forty mile radius: Altogether I accomplished a lot of business, met some very interesting and entertaining people, and on the whole, had a most cn- joyable time. 1 still have to make a trip to Toronto--after that I shall probably be ready to hibernate for the duration of the winter, ~ Tt bias heen said that houses take on characier from the people who live in them, . There can be little argunient against that--it is often # so very obvious. For instance one Touse I visited was almost new and the very last-word in comfort and - convenience--sircamlined to the very last detail. Picture win- dois, drapes that pulled right across, very smoothly, by manipu- iating a hidden cord. Hardwood floors throughout--excépt - in the kiichen, bathroom and basement," where there was rubber tile. Four- picce batliroom on the ground floor; three-piece in the basement. And that basement réally won my "heart. There was the usual modern laundry--also "workshop, compleie with fireplace, sleeping cot, large desk, sewing machine and oodles of cupboard room. The friend who was with me said laughingly--*1 cdn just imagine what: you would do with this room if you had it!" Another attraction--:he men could , go in and out to the basement by the rear door, smoke a pipe or take a showef; even if there was a tea- going. on in the living room. Needless to say this extremely mo- .dern and charming home was exact- ly the right setting for the lady of the house, whom _I knew to be: a mose efficient and meticulous housckeeper. Later in the week [ visited, for the first time, another home, And in regard to it 1 shall L only. Attempt to describe one room--it was all that registered with me anyway. This room was' very large, A pic- ture window reached almost entire- ly across. one end of it--and this window 'led out to a flagstone ter- race--complete with "a background of ornamental evergreens--and overlooking a rayine through which ran a gurgling stream, If I lived in that house I don't think I would * ever. want to move out. of such a delightful room. One couldn't pos- sibly tire of it. Inside the room there were huge oak beams sup- porting the- ceiling which was a lovely shade of palish'blue, a pleas- ing. contrast to the bdor which was Chinese red--hbut the red was not too obvious because of the scatter rugs and the subdued tores of the chesterfield suite and other furnish. ings.
