The women returned after holi- days to find continued and critical post-war problems facing them. The urgency of these : problems, they hope, will be realized by all Chapters of the Red Cross so that groups will decide to resume work to meet this crisis, The children of Great Britain and Europe are still in pitiable need of help. The Canadian Red '| Cross Society has opened a distri- bution centre at Bayeux in Nor- mandy which is manned by Can- adian personnel, Distribution of clothing will be made to needy children in that part of France which the Canadian army helped to liberate, The amount of. civilian clothing required is still great, Hospital supplies are needed for Outpost Hospitals, Blood Donor Centres and for local requirements. The Ontario Division has on hand a quota for 3,000 milar to those made during the past year, These are some of the problems presented to the Oshawa Branch by the Division. In order to ascer- tain how much assistance can be given in this program, a letter will be sent to each convener, request- ing her to attend a meeting of con- veners of all Red Cross Chapters to be held at the Y.W.C.A,, 109 Centre Street, on Monday, September 30, at 2.30 pm. 62-Year-Old-Woman "Builds Own House Mt. Vernon, Ky., Sept. 18--(CP)-- Mrs, Lee M, Cooper, 62-year-old widow of Billows, Rockcastle Coun- ty, whipped the housing shortage, largely with her own hands, She decided on a stone house, and not a little one, at that. Lack ability to get labor did. So Mrs, Cooper picked up stones from ad- joining fields and the bluffs sur- rounding her house site and hauled them to the location herself--200 wagon loads of field stone, Today there stands her accom- plishment--a sturdy 14-room stone home in the little valley on the Rockeastle River midway between Somerset and London, Ky. "I needed a house," sald Mrs, Cooper, "and I meant to have one if I had to build it myself." She doesn't lay claim to doing all the work, though she also dug most of the basement, She hired workers to lay the stone for the walls, to put on the roof, and to do some heavy {finishing work, She did the rest. Her total cash outlay was about $2,000 and some obser- vers have estimated the house is easily worth five times that much, Women in Orchestras Embarrass Conductor Discussing th subject of woman's place in the symphony orchestra in London recently, Sir Thomas Beecham whose caustic wit, and provocative musicianship have made news for more than a quar- ter-century, said: "I have an exag- gerated sense of chivalry and, therefore, I am not overfond of wo- men in my orchestras, I find it embarrassing to rebuke them, Wo- men in an orchestra tend to dis tract the more inflammable male members, If the woman happens to be ill-favoured, he doesn't want to play, next to her; if she is well- favoured, he can't." What stumped him though, was what to do about the viola, "A man cannot make the viola agreeable to me," he con- fided. "It is the one instrument whith women can play supremely well layettes si- | of funds didn't hinder her, but in- | MR, and MRS, STANLEY GARDYNIK whose marriage took place in Holy Cross Church last Saturday.

Liberal Leader's. Wife Will Settle For Family Life By HELEN BANNERMAN Canadian Press Staff Writer Ottawa, Sept, 18--(CP)=In a world where wives of men in the news are making more and more headlines themselves, blond, moth- erly, Mrs, Walter A. Tuckers of Rosthern, Sask, wife of the new Saskatchewan Liberal leader, has nine good reasons for believing that women's place is in the home. These reasons are her children: Shirley, 16, Marion, 14, Austen, 13, David 12, John, 11, George, eight, Edward, seven, Hertha, five end Wilfred, two. Far from complain- ing that homemaking is boring, Mrs, Tucker says there is never a dull moment.--for the same nine reasons, Interviewed in her home here while packing to return to the per- manent Tucker home at Rosthern, Mrs. Tucker explained her solution of Ottawa's notorious housing short- age which she was fortunate enough to sidestep, ' Thankful For Houses husband came down and bought this house and we all came later last fall and moved in, I don't even know how he got it, I just thank my stars he did." Visitors dropping in on Mrs. Tucker are sure to meet some of the children, This Canadian Press reporter met Shirley who is inter- ested in journalism and came in quietly to listen to a real inter view. Little blonde Hertha rushed in to show her mother a new paper doll, became aware of a stranger and disappeared again. "Hertha is happy because I am letting her take all her paper dolls back with her but the boys are not because I made them throw out all their comic books to save space," Mrs, Tucker explained, 'Wilfrid, the baby, woke up from his afternoon nap upstairs, and Shirley went upstairs to quiet him back to sleep. Co-operation is the key-note in the smooth running Tucker household, The older child- ren help care for the younger ones and all have their household tasks. Mrs. Tucker also has a maid, Tyught School Mrs, Tucker -- Hertha Friesen, daughter of Mr, and Mrs, Henry Friesen of Rosthern--was a school- teacher in several northern Sas katchen towns before her marriage in 1020 to the young lawyer from her hometown, They were married in Rosetown on a week-end and Mrs. Tucker returned to her class- room the following Monday. "The first time I met Walter was when I went to ask him to pre- side at some gathering for a church function and he did," Mrs, Tucker sald with a reminiscent smile, "I haven't thought of that meeting for a long time. It certainly didn't seem romantic then." The Tuckers belong to the United Church, Although she loves having her large family around her, Mrs. Tuck- er has come to Ottawa several tiles with only one or two of the children, while her husband, Liber- al MP. for Rosthern and parlia- mentary assistant to Veterans' Min- ister Mackenzie, has been attending sessions, while Mr, Tucker was in the army, they also lived in Van- couver and Victoria, "I just brought the older ones who took an interest in Parliament and life in the capital," Mrs. Tuck= er sald, None of the children shows signs yet of following in their fath- er's political footsteps, The boys incline towards careers as cowboys and the girls can't decide. When she has any spare time--the phrase amuses her--Mrs. Tucker knits and keeps up-to-date in magazines, newspapers and "the heavy things my husband brings home."
