YOUNG PEOPLES SOCIETY MEETINGS REHEARSE PLAY TO BE PRESENTED SOON The meeting of the Young Peo- ple's League of Christ Church last evening took the form of a re- hearsal. The young people of this Pee ad PRACTICAL--SMARY If you have a little daughter of 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14 years in your home, you'll thoroughly appreciate design no. 104 consisting of a vestee and bloomers. These attractive undies can be made at a remarkable saving of durable fabrics that will give splendid wear. Elastic is inserted through a hem at top or bloomers and through a casing above knees forming frill. For the 8-year miss, 134 yards of 40-inch material is suf- ficient to make both vestee and bloomers. Batiste, crepe de chine, rayon crepe, cross bar dimity, wash- able crepe satin, lawn and novelty cotton crepe are smart suggestions. Pattern price 20 cents in stamps or coin (coin preferred). Emb. No. 11135 (blue) costs 20 cents extra. We suggest that when you send for this pattern, you enclose 10 cents additional for a copy of our Fashion Magazine, showing all the most at- tractive Paris styles, embroidery, etc. PATTERN PURCHASE COUPON the Home -- and th The Women's Corner For Anything of Interest to the Homemaker and the Housekeeper There are certain points conrect= ed with the making of artistic and well-hanging curtains and draperies that puzzle even the fairly experi- enced "window dresser." If you have never yet made curtains or draperies you will no doubt find ans- wers to all your biggest questions in the general rules stated below. 1. Glass curtains, those thin inner curtains meant to hang as close to the glass as possible, are always giv= en a rod to themselves. Cased only at the top or cased at both top and bottom, they should cover the glass and not extend above or below it any more than necessary; the proper length is just to clear the window sill. 2. Proper materials for glass cur- tainings include fine net, marquis- ctte, voile, theatrical gauze and silk gauze. Fulness should be scant to avoid bunchings. The favorite width for the curtain hem is ah inch and a half or two inches, but one inch or three inches may do as well 3. As precaution against shrinking it is a good idea to fold two or three thicknesses into the casing while making; or to put in two or 'three rows of pin-tucking, horizontally, near the hem, which may be ripped out if material shrinks. A 4. Side draperies may extend to the floor or extend to the bottom of ; the window trim, which is several inches below the glass curtains. The floor lengths imparts dignity and is rticularly desirable where an ef- ect of greater height is desirable in a room. 5. The long, narrow window may be made to appear wider by setting the side draperies out on the wall on either side. A wide window may be made to appear less wide by al- lowing the draperies to extend over on the glass. In material about the weight of cretonne, the desirable width for side hangings is 36 inches. 6. Lining the overdrapery is a mat- ter of personal taste, but it should be said that the lined drapery both hangs better and wears better than the unlined one. Unbleached muslin and sateen are popular lining ma- terials since they are heavy enough to give body and prevent light from shining through. Lining should be at least an inch shorter than the hanging and should hang free from it so that there will 'be no buckling. 7. When lined fabric balances or covered cornice boards are used draperies should be hung from a separate rod sect inside of the for- mer. 8. Glass curtaining for French doors should be cased top and bot- tom and arranged so that none of the frame work is covered. chufch are to present "The Gypsy Festival" in the parish hall the last week in April, and they are at present rehearsing for this event. REVOLUTION IN CHINA DISCUSSED BY LEAGUE The meeting of the King street Young People's League 'was in charge of group "D" last evening. The topic under discussion was "The Revolution in China." Sever- al phases of the changes wrought by the revolution in China were discussed. Miss Muriel Oke dis- cussed the educational industrial, economical and literary cunanges while Mr, Albert Walker discussed the medical phases. The changes in religion which have taken place were shown by Mrs. H, F. Myers, Miss Audrey Werry played as a plano solo, Friml's "Impression of a Chinese Wedding Procession." Mr. H. Millard discussed the pol- itical changes caused by the rev- olution. Since this revolution is a matter of great interest in all coun- tries today this discussion was of interest to all. The meeting was brought to a close with a singsong. Helpful Hints for Harassed Housewives Fruit salads have an added food value when mixed with a honey dressing. To two teaspoonsful strained honey add one tablespoon lemon juice and two tablespoonsful of another fruit juice. Blend this well, beating with a fork until it thickens somewhat, Fried cucumbers make a good ac- companiment for meat. Peel the vegetable; cut into half inch thick slices and soak in cold water for an hour and then dry with a cloth. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, roll in flour or corn meal and brown on both sides in hot butter. Egg and cracker crumbs may be used if pre- ferred. * % %x Now that rayon has become so universally used material the sens- ible housewife learns how to laun- der it. In the first place, the more frequently rayon is laundered: the lovelier it is if the laundering is done properly. Remember - that rayon must be washed in pure soapsuds, in only lukewarm water and should be rinsed several times in water of the same temperature--never in cold. It must never be rang or squeezed, but should be allowed to dry on a Diamonds! Bassett"s To The Oshawa Times Pattern : Department, Ont.

White rayon never yellows, as does silk and never needs bluing. It is wiser to iron when quite damp on the wrong side. Rayon curtains will wear much longer if frequently washed and ironed, than if allowed to collect dirt and soot, which has an injurious effect on the threads. * x % Whereas a vase of sweet peas is pretty a woman can demonstrate her artistry much more effectively if she takes a couple of sprays of lavender sweet peas, a daisy or two, a bit of snapdragon, two blue irises, a daf- fodil, three tulips, some narcissus and perhaps some fuchsia. x MARSHMALLOW SALAD Pecan meats used whole: sliced pineapple cut into small pieces (if grated pineapple is preferred, the juice may be strained out); white cherries, seeded; marshmallows diced with scissors wet in hot water and undried. Mix with mayonnaise com- bined with whipped cream and serve on lettuce. * * If your supply of chili sauce has become exhausted you can readily re- lace this now with canned tomatoes. se two cans of tomatoes and add two diced onions, three diced green peppers, two tablespoons sugar, one tablespoon 'cinnamon, one teaspoon cloves and one cup vinegar. Let these ingredients simmer until the juices begin to thicken. Do not allow the mixture to boil. Bottle the sauce as soon as it thickens. MAN FORGED TO BE DON QUIXOTE rantry to Win Girl's Hand London, Apr. 9--A new rival to Basil Finnigan, the British dare- devil, who some time ago announc- ed his intention of performing ev- ery hair-raising feat imaginable, strolled into the Sunday Chronicle office recently. "I have been given 12 months to prove that I am a maa of courage and enterprise," he said. 'van you put me in touch with anybody who wants the servces of a young man who is prepared to risk his life in any hazardous undertak- ing?" : This astonishing visitor, who gave the name of Harold Macken- "zie, told a remarkable story of why he must prove his mettle dur- ing the next twelve months, The Viking Breed Behind his eagerness to risk his marry a man of the Viking breed. "A fortnight ago," Mr, Macken- zie said, "I proposed to the yuuug lady with whom I have been keep- ing company .for the past eight months. Her reply was that mod- ern young men were spineless and that she would not marry a man who could not prove his courage. "Though I pointed out ruere were no opportuities nowadays for Vikings, she insisted that if a man Modern Style Knight Er- neck is a pretty girl who wants to' really wanted to do somertning risky, he would find a way. Final- 1y, she agreed to marry me if wu twelve months 1 could prove my- self to be a hero." Hero's Search in Vain Mr. Mackenzie's first inspiration was to throw up his job as a clerk in a London suburban hardware store, He is now on the look-out for any adventurous undertaking which requires pluck. And the bigger the risk the better. The other night he was in the vicinity of a fire and heard tnat a family was sald to have been trapped in a burning building. He rushed to the spot, only to find that an outhouse had been on fire and that the fire had been put out, When he saw a man belaboring a woman in the East End he felt that his opportunity had arrived. 'He rushed to her assistance. He got a black eye from the man, and the woman hit him over the hgad with her umbrella for inter- fering. Give Me a Chance In despair of proving his pluck by chance opportunities he now intends to insert an advertisement in the newspapers offering his ser- vices to anybody who wants a job doing what entails a maximum amount of risk. "I don't care what is is," Mr. Mackenzie said. "I am willing to do daring stunts for the cinema, tricks on an aeroplane in flight and at a pinch, I wouldn't mind crossing Niagara in a barrel. "Just give me a chance, that is all I want." PLAN TO SAVE TH SPOKEN STAGE URGENLY NEEDED Talking Moving Pictures Likely to Have Great Effect Upon Legitimate Stage 13 h New York, N. Y., April 9--While William A. Brady and other veter- an theatrical producers are predict- ing that in a few years talking mo- tion pictures will have crowded the so-called "legitimate drama' out of existence along comes an organiza- tion with a plan to save the spoken stage.
