The theme of the Port Perry U.C.W. Ba- zaar held in the Masonic Hall ¢ on November 4th, was Can- td ¢ chagss. ada's Centennial. But it was Canada wearing an Eastern legacy The pressing crowds, the babble of many voices stilled just long enough to hear a brief and gracious wel- come from the president, Mrs. Sam Cawker, and from Mrs. Alec. Rice), the stalls brilliantly decked with their exotic displays--all this was reminiscent of a oireet baz- aar in Alexandria. Except, of course, there was no haggling. In fact, the luxury handi- crafts, especially the festive carilkes, were so reasonably priced that many a Christmas shopper was heard congrat- ulating herself on her pur- The most spectacular stalls included innovations.

Christmas candles of every shape and design, all hand-crafted by Unit 8, wrere also sold at bargain prices, For many present, it was Christmas tha moment they saw the cand- les, some © beautiful in their simplicity of line, others all frost and glitter. Aprons, hundreds of them, it seemed, were imaginatively displayed by Unit 6. They were so pretty that they fair- ly saduced you into buying some putiing one on and get- ting back to the kitchen. Haven't you heard? Mother swings in the kitchen, where the action is, and she's wear- ing her new apron, the one she bought at the bazaar. At this same stall, "many eyes covtited the beautiful pillowcases with crochet ed- looked at four o'clock. Nowhere. but at the bazaar does 3 much happen to so many in so short a time. While Mother shopped, the children visited the Wishing Well, the Candy Booth (con- vened by Unit 1), and the Ghildren's Corner where they were regaled with hot Pop- corn and cold drink by Mrs, Rice and the girls of the C.G. LT. Meanwhile, some of the handsomest hats- in Canada ware seen at the tea-tables The tea, convened by Mrs. Howard Hall, was a welcome respite form the excitement of shopping. Many ladies, re- vitalized 'by the rich dainties and the warm tea, later re- turned to the fray and made a fresh onslaught on the stalls. They raided the Baking Booth (convened by Mrs. W. T. Harris and the ladies of Unity 4 and 3) until the de- mand exhausted the supply. They picked gay mittens of all colours from the Mit- ten Tree (tended by green thumbs in Unit 3) and plucked promises from the Promise Tree (tended by Miss Gladys Joblin and Mrs. John Price). Home - made bread is only a promise away whan you buy from the Pro- mic2 Tree. They visited the Young Canada Booth (convened by Unit 7) where hand-made children's clothes and toys were displayed in an 1867 setting. And they visited the BUSINESS & PROFESSIONAL DIRECTORY '6.

At this bazaar, youthful Explor- ers (under the direction of Mrs. Frank Godley) played an active part selling bath salts and, other items they had 'so imaginatively created and packed. Later, these youngsters were seen help- ing in other booths. Suddenly the hubbub was over, the guests departed. The treasurar was in her counting money house, coun- ting up her money. Now it was time for the three con- scientious and imaginative conveners, Mrs. John Price, Mrs. George Whetham, and Mrs. Charles Tabanovich, to hear the happy news that their hard work had been well rewarded.
