Aacided -- MORNING AT CONSECON LAKE The lake is calm on this fair Aug- ust morning, The towering trees cast shadows cool and clear; Bird-voices, hushed, are waking with the dawning. And life is stirring in the meadow near, Across the lake an early voice is silent, A voice that used to call the cattle home, A stranger's voice breaks through the morning quiet, And swallows skim across the ris- ing foam. Careless they fly, as in those rad- iant summers, Heedless that winter comes with wind and whirling snow; Only the human heart dwells on life's fleeting changes, And yearns for summers of the long ago. ~--Helen B. Anderson. AMONG THE LATEST STYLES \v dren's sizes 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10.

OSHAWA WELCOMES ALEX, MACLEOD wy a " pot £ L, 7 "MRS. YOUNGEST WAR GUEST _ MACLEOD AND RONALD PHILLIPS WILLIAM Title of youngest war guest visiting Oshawa from overseas rests to-day upon the young but willing shoulders of Ronald Phillips William MacLeod, who was born here last Friday, ten days after his mother arrived in this city ffom war-torn England. Mrs, Alex. MacLeod, the proud mother, is the wife of Alex. MacLeod, who is serving with the R.AF. A one-time Oshawa girl, she is visiting her mother, Mrs. Alex. MacDonald, 51 Ritson road north, along with her two small daughiers, Eileen, aged 3, and Phyllis, 2. Mrs. MacLeod, who was Annie MacDonald before her mar riage, and w went to England six years ago.

Miss Dunton went to Paris several years ago and has established herself as a leading dressmaker. "I leave the difficulties under which we are all living to your imagination. We have no news of the outside world but 1 know in- stinctively the splendid work you are all doing and it makes my heart glad," she wrote, A glimpse of the position of France can be gained by reading between the lines, For instance, she wrote: "We are doing everything humanly possible to get away but you can well sur- mise my situation, under the cir- cumstances, ie far from enviable and my chances problematical." Hair-Raising Trip She started off with: "I am anxi- ous to communicate my where- abouts to the few people in Toron- to who might be worried about me. Would you please ask The Star or another paper to say I'm doing as well as can be expected !!! (The exclamation marks are Miss Dun- ston's.). "We managed to get to .Quim- perle in Brittany after a hair- raising trip," Miss Dunton wrote. "The greater part of the way was | made in RAF. and BEF. convoys {on their way out through Nantes and Brest. However, we were for- | tunate to the point of seconds and if we ever get out. of this hocus I | shall be grateful for the myriad ex- | periences. "We were to have sailed from Ge- "| nog on the American Export line, [but when we tried to leave Paris by | train, the city was in a panic and one couldn't get within blocks of the station." | Seeking Information After five hours trying they gave ip. Later that night, Miss Dunton aid, they learned Italy had declar- ed war. The condition of prisoners { of war is "penible" (heart-rending), | she added. There are some Cana. dians being held and she said she is endeavoring to get information of them. The letter ends with: "So here we are without an address; our mate- | rial status nil and void to a penny. | The collection trunks we checked at the staticn have even been open- ed and completely rifled. (These would contain her fall models, worth | thousands of dollars). Until a bet- ter day and with all my thanks, | Marjorie D.""--From Toronto Daily | Star. | | POLISH COLORS TO | MATCH TIMES | Peggy Sage comes through with | Flying Colours! Skyhigh and Flag- | ship, they're shades that hit a new fashion high. Answer your call to | the colours with polish tones as livening as g cheer, as ringing as a patriotic tune. Flagship is the brilliant red of the alrways--dark, clear, with un- usual carrying' quality. It's the guid. ling red that keeps the pilot "on the beam" in rain or fog--the red with the highest visibility of any shade in the spectrum. A marvel- lous, flaunting colour, it has a ring- ing tone that will lift smart hands | to new fashion highs. Skyhigh is a shade straight from the clouds, soft, poetry-making pink, But it's a pink with flair, with flash, with "zoom",--a soft shade that can still strike sparks. Due in part to violet undertones, its colour appeal carries through even under dimming lights. It's going sky-high on the hands of Colonial Airways stewardesses--look for it when you fly the skyways. Flagship is the shade to flash | with grounded brown, non-stop gray*, fledgling green* and gold. Skyhigh takes the controls with air. ways blue, the violets-to-wine. But it's that flirt in polish tones, a shade that travels well in any com- pany. *Elephant green. gray -- bronze-toned *They Make Delicious Tea 'SALADA TEA BAGS Parent Problem 39 GARRY C. MYERS, Ph.D. Education of the child in the care and use of money is strictly a home problem. This problem can't be avoided. It comes as the child grows. 'Begin when the tot has a cent or nickel to spend, Give him the cent or nickel at regular intervals, say on a certain day each week. So far as reasonably possible, let him use this money as he likes. If you succeed in prevailing on the child to save the nickel of this week till be gets the nickel of next week in order to puy some cherished thing costing a dime he has made remark- able progress. He has learned to give up something now for a great. erpleasure later--a basic trait of character. If this child should be able to keep the nickel to the third week | his victory would stil lbe more glo- | rious. Also he would have demon- strated that he could be entrusted safely each week with more than a nickel. Building Responsibility Very, very gradually extend the amount he regularly will receive each week to include a few neces- | sities. But be sure not to extend | this responsibility too fast. As soon as necessities like school supplies, car fare, Sunday school money, and the like are covered in the gllowance let a certain amount, say a nickel or a dime, also be included which he Some suggestions about {ts use might be wise, but coercion, except where he spends for positively | harmful things, would be bad, At the age of six, seven, eight, nine or later, depending on how far he has cultivated responsibility, have him keep careful account of his necessary expenditures at school and elsewhere. From the record of his necessary expenditures for a week he and his parents should make up a definite budget itemizing each group of ne- cessities. Then this total amount | plus the small definite "free" item | should make up his regular weekly | allowance to be received on a regu- [lar day. If some unexpected legiti- mate need should rise during this or later weeks not accounted for in the budget his parents would sup- ply it, of course. The child should know that he may be free to discuss the allowance with his parents at any time and that they would will- ingly revise it upward as the need of doing so becomes obvious, A Budget Plan As the child begins this exten- sive plan of allowance he should, on receiving it, place the necessary amounts in separate envelopes la- GUIDE NEWS The Second Oshawa Brownies will resume meetings at Christ Church next Wednesday.
