ANOTHER BARRAGE OF OPPOSITION FOR MR. VENIOT Postmaster-General Is As- sailed on Account of Dis- missals of Postmasters (By Canadian Press Leased Wire) Ottawa, April 19.--The course followed by Hon. P. J. Veniot, post- master-general, in connection with the dismissal from the civil service of a number of postmasters, brought severe censure from members of the opposition, in the house of commons yesterday. As on two previous occasions, the postmaster- general attempted to obtain appro- val of estimates covering appropria- tions for the post office, outside service. Twice now he has met with opposition in the form of am- party. Yesterday, the having gone into supply minister was met with a barrage of questions relating to dismissals and appointments of postmasters during his regime. At times the exchanges between the minister and prominent members of the Con- servative party were hot. The min- ister was charged with "playing fa- vorites.'"" The words "slippery evasion" was applied to some of his explanations. On the other hand the minister defended his course of action, in cases cited, on the ground that there had been ire regularities, incompetence, or dis- honesty with respect to those dis- missed. And the minister declared to the house that he had not always used the prerogative of dismissal even though he might have done so. "1 do not wish to deny that I have shown leniency in many cases where 1 felt it was justified, in so doing.," he informed the house. "And," he added, "I will show it again." raw proposed, however, to see that the law was enforced with respect to jrregularities in the postal service, Despise not any man and do not spurn anything; for there is no man that has not his hour, nor is there anything that has not its place.--Azai.

MES, FRIDAY, APRIL 19, 1929 RULES OF STYLE BY. A DUCHESS Duchess of York Says Wo- men Must Learn Own Limitati London, April 19.--The Duchess of York, wife of King George's sec~ ond son, and mother of baby Prin- cass: Elizabeth, is the personifi- cation of feminism. She loves clothes and admits the fact frank-| ly. "Some clothes like me, some clothes don't," she once laugh~ ingly remarked to a friend. This perfect sense of what she can wear never leaves her. "If a woman knows her limi- tations she can always be well dressed," says the Duchess, and with this in view she has four "musts" with regard to her clothes. 1. They must be simple. 2. They must be cut perfectly. 3. They must Suit the person- ality and not merely be fashion- able. 4. The color scheme must be carefully thought out in every case, The Duchess has been called "the dainty duchess." Her daintiness is typified in her negligees which are invariably of soft pale colors. Georgette and crepe-de-chine com- bined are greatly favored by her for pose robes, and the neck and sleeves are generally edged with the finest lace or some soft fur dyed to match the wrap. Silver grey is a color much fav- ored by her for town wear, and she is often to be seen in a soft grey coat with a large roll collar of silver fox. The skirt under this coat is of similar grey and is of pleated crepe-de-chine, while the plain soft jumper of "Betty" blue matches the small tight-fitting blue felt hat, with its characterist- ic turn-up brim and the blue feather falling at the right side. "Betty blue," as it is called, is a slightly darker shade of corn- flowers blue than "Princess Mary" The duchess has a real reason for her choice of these small turn- back hats. They become her sweet serious face extraordinary well of Sfurse, but the duchess wears em mostly because 'you can pull them on and then mot think about them any more," as she once re- marked. "They do not have to be perpetually adjusted. This is espec- ially convenient at public function for I hate to see women fiddling with their hats." AUSTRALIAN BOYS WARNED NOT T0 VISIT CHICAGO Anonymous Letter Received by Major Simons at _ Niagara Falls (By Canadian Press Leased Wire) Niagara Falls, Ont.,, April 19.-- An anonymous letter warning the party of 160 Australian boys, now touring the United States and Can- ada, not to visit Chicago, was re- ceived yesterday by Major S. S. Simons, who is in charge of the party. "We have received repeated warnings from friends that the visit of our boys in uniform might not exactly be welcomed by the anti-British element in Chicago, but this morning's letter was a bombshell. "My officers and I are inclined to view the matter as a joke, but some of the people responsible for our tour do not view it in that light and we may be forced to can- cel our Chicago visit," Major Sim- ons said. "Our boys are now more eager than ever to see Chicago," Major Simons added. 'Former King Amanullah of Af- ghanistan is still fighting to get back his throne. .
