Mrs. O. 8. Hobbs gave instruction in the applying of tourniques and the doctor's lecture consisted of the showing X-rays of different frac- tures, followed by a talk on blood pressures. The thanks of all who attended these classes were extend- ed to Dr. Archer Brown and Mrs. O. 8. Hobbs, through the President of the W.V.A.C, Mrs. D. R. Rollo, who invited everyone to the classes for Home Nursing, starting Friday evening as a follow-up to the first aid course, These classes are free, If someone were to zdd up all the hours spent on women's exhibits at | the Oshawa Fair the result would | be truly surprising. Some single ar- | ticles of needlework would represen! more time than many of us sped on handicraft in our whole lives Some of us would look again al pieces of work we hee displayed with considerable pride and decide that perhaps they weren't much | after all. Taken on the whole the women's | building is much improved this year. We were struck immediately with the interior decoration. The mer- chants of Oshawa have built and donated a spot for the food exhibits It rises in tiers in the middle of the building, is paifted ing. The difference in the appear- ance of the food is witness in itself to the worthwhileness of the pro- ject. The canned fruit :*ad honey fs sparkling clear under the improved illumination and the bread seems to have ricen a few inches with pride There is a choice array of cakes ead delectable-looking cookies, tea bis- cuits and sandwiches, pastry and pickles--almost too much for a re- porter who heun't had much break- fast. Next year the Fair board an- ticipates glass windows for the case. The outside walls are all green on the inside, if you know what we mez. It is a simple arrangement of green wrapping paper but effective nevertheless and produces a uni- form background. While the exhibit is larger on the whole, according to Mrs. W. A. Mac- Neely of Brookiin, chairman, there still seems to be very few exhibits in most classes. Perhaps there are too maay classes. We don't know. The prize money has increased ten per cent this year we are told. There is a display of art again and Mrs. Lloyd Johnston, Athol street east, is in charge. Miss Bessie Mountjoy, Kedron, is looking eiter Junior Wo- men's Institutes' displays. Four sen- jor institutes have exhibited. An attempt has been made with the flower display to get back to the days when the flower building was really a beauty spot. Smzil in scale the general effect, however, is much better than it has been for several fairs. Thirteen hundred feet of floor space has been given to flowers which are better this year because of the late season. A fine gladioll group has been shown by Mr. W, E. Dyer of Columbus, one of the pro- vince's largest gladioli growers. The most attractive exhibit is that of Mr. Mark Atkin of Hz.mony. A Union Jack fashioned from purple snowy white | | and boasts a kind of indirect light- and Dr. W. H. Stanley accompanied by Mrs. Stanley are to be the in- i structors for this course. This is {an opportunity to gain practical knowledge which will be of great value in the home. Mrs. T. Cald- well and Mrs. C. Patten have made arrangements for these classes. The Auxiliary has been very for- tunate in this venture, to give to every woman in Oshawa an oppor- | tunity to educate herself to be of | assistance in emergency, at home jor in the community. The assist | ance given by doctors, nurses, Guide | leaders and firemen, to make this | course full and complete shows the | Spe of comradeship which exists in Oshawa. Oshawa women are Invited to at- | tend these follow-up classes start- | ing Priday at 7:30 pm. in Legion | Hall, the physical training classes | starting Tuesday at 9:15 p.m. under | the leadership of Mr. C.

Women Smuggle Baby From France Ottawa, Sept. 10.--The story of the Y.M.C.A. war baby which was responsible for women workers being allowed to share duties in Y. M.C.A. army huts was told here recently by H.R.H. Princess Alice, wife of Canada's Governor General. It had been very difficult, Prin- cess Alice said, to get permission for women to work in the Y.M.C.A. canteen, An English woman went tc Boulogne to see her hustand who was not expected to live. At the Y.M.C.A. hut the woman gave birth to a child and the women at the canteen not only aided the mother but helped her smuggle the baby in a tea box back to England, so it wouldn't be deemed a French citizen, "That settled the argument on the usefulness of women at the canteen," Her Royal Highness said. Then she added: "The father re- covered." The event' described by Princess Alice took place during the last war, In this war women have helpzd in Y.M.C.A. services to men of the armed forces since the outbreak. In Red Triangle Clubs across Can- ada, in the Beaver Club and at Waterloo Station in London, on the beaches opposite Dunkirk and at the Canadian encampments throughout England Canadian women have served with Canadian 'Y' officers in entertaining troops. helping them solve their personal problems and providing them with food and hot drinks.

MYERS, Ph.D. Mcst of us can recall one or more experiences of childhood when we were accused, probably punished, for what we did not do. We can almest relive the agony we endured and the bitterness we felt over the injustice. Who of us parents has not made such an error? We might forgive ourselves for it but not if we didn't apologize to the child for our transgression against him. Below I quote from a young wom- an lawyer (unmarried who has adopted four children and who, from the objective evidence I have been able to gather, is roving to be a most successful "mother." She tells of Millie at the age of ten. Because of a small misde- meanor at home, Millie had to re- main at home while the "mother" and the other children went to see a motion picture. Her Story Was True "When we got out of the show the rain was coming down in tor=- rents. We %odged drops, ran through alleys to the doctor's of- | fice, where I teiephoned Millie to unasked, an umbrella for each of us. "Later we went to the drug store i to have a prescription filled. While there Millie came up to me and aid, 'I have lost a penny of my al- lowance and there is something herve I would like to get, but IT.am a penny short of money enough to | buy it." I looked at her for a min- | ute and gave her a penny. .. "The following day, Sunday, Mil- | le started out in the rain in the | middle of the afternoon to feed the rabbits. She had not gone far when she returned into the house and came unstairs where I was, with a 1 penny in her hand. She handed it | to me saving, 'When I opened my | umbrella this fell out. Tt is the | one I lost yesterday.' Perhaps you | can imagine how touched I was, not | only to find out that her story of the lost penny was true, but that | she was ready and wanted to re- turn it to me when she found it, | and also that I had not to her ex- pressed doubt of her story. I had | been rather discouraged over the-- episcde, but that incident somehow | gave me courage to carry on." A Fine Family When Mrs. Myers and T passed through the city where this fine | synthetic family live we stopped [to call on them. How fine and wonderflil they were. The two girls are fourteen, the two boys nine | Though it was the first time we had met, we all 'had a lovely brief visit togather. Mrs. Myers and I drove on saying to each other, {| "Aren't they ga wonderful family." We shall never forget this visit nor this unusual family. Over a period of years this young adoptive mother 1as been writing me of her probe lems and successes. More than ever now, I shall enjoy answering her and sharing a wee bit in the bring. ing up of these children. Mrs. Myers and I agreed that among other things the poise of this adop= tive mother was a secret of her une usual success, Solving Parent Problems Q. It takes an hour or more every night to get my ten-year-old girl to bed and there's always an argue ment. Often she goes to bed crying and leaving me all wrought up. A. Announce to her the exact time when she must be in hed with the light cut. Let her know that for a minute late she will have to sit for a. whole hour in a chair do= ing nothing--no funnies, books or j radio. Then it wil grow painful to slay up rather than painful to go to bed. This will work if you | come to us for an appointment I | had made with the doctor for her. | She' came, bringing with her, all | enforce the penalty ragidly and keep your lips sealed. | HS O-E-S-RFCFIVES SEVERAL INVITATIONS The meeting of Sunbeam Chapter No. 73, was held in the Masonic Temple on Thursday. In the abe- sence of the Worthy Matron, Sister Grigg, Assoe. Matron, presided. The chapter is entertaining Fi- delity Chapter, Toronto, on Sept. 19, when the quilt for the benevclence will be drawn for. Invitations were received from Toronto Chapter for Sept. 20, and Eastdale Chapter for Sept. 23. It is hoped a large number of our members will visit these Chapters.

CLASS OR INDIVIDUAL LESSONS e PHONE 2531W When you smack Sid You'll get from your breakfast all the oomph you want ! your lips and say... IE YOUR breakfast doesn't make your mouth water, it can't give you the extra energy you need. So insist on Kellogg's Corn Flakes, the breakfast that does these three vital things. First, the very thought of the glorious flavour rouses your sleepy appetite. Second, they are jam-packed with essential energizing "carbohydrates." Third, they help keep you going through hours of work. So get several packages right away. Proven first in flavour, Kellogg's take only 30 seconds to prepare. Made by Kellogg's in London, Canada. KELLOGG'S FIRST FOR FLAVOUR say house- wives and experts, too! In a recent survey across Canada-- housewives reported their families preferred Kellogg's 5to 1 asagainst any other brand of corn flakes mentioned. And the trained expert palates of tea-tasters, coffee-blenders, chefs, say the same. For instance, Mr. J. M. Cochrane, Superinten- dent of Hunts Limited, famous for their fine confectionaries, reports: "The conditions were strict, the test impartial, but there was no doubt of the result: Kellogg's rated first for flavour." Take a tip from the experts. And when you eat out, ask for Kellogg's in the wax-wrapped individual package. SO ECONOMICAL! Only a few pen- nies to give the whole family breakfast or supper. Have you tried Canada's fa- vourite cereal in the new family-size package? Ask your grocer. ie =
