THURSDAY, JANUARY 16, 1947 THE DAILY T IMES-CAZETTE PAGE NINR WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT--- Addressing a Letter to a Widow? By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I found at Christmas-time by an etiquette question and although I did what I thought was right, now, on sec- ond thought, I'm not so sure I was right. Will you please tell me what you Yk I shoud Dave done? In my social experience ore coming to this small town to live, I never an envelope to a widow except as "Mrs. John Smith." But here, in my church work, I have become good friends with two or three widows, who use the name- form of "Mrs. Mary Smith." Either John Smith." Was this proper, or should I have used the "Mrs. Mary" form which they use for themselves, but which I detest? G .P No, you did not do the 'proper about This is . that person by the name he or she prefers, just as we should pronounce a pans name as she or he wishes it to be pro- nounced. Why Right Side of Church is "Groom's Side" Dear Mrs Beeckman: What is the reason for the cus- tom that the groom's family sit in the first pew on the right of the aisle and the bride's family in the first pew on the left of the aisle? I should think that the seating- arrangement would be just the op- to this; that the bride's fam- , since they give the wedding, should sit in the first pew on the right of the aisle. Bride-to-be The bride's mother and father are hosts of the wedding. The bride- groom's mother and father are the guests of honor at the wedding. The custom of having the bridegroom's parents sit in the first pew on the right of the aisle follows the tradi- tion that honored guests were (and are) always seated at the right of the host or hostesss. This is the reason too why at the parents' table at the reception, the groom's moth- er (woman guest of honor) is seat- ed at the right of the bride's father (host); and the groom's father of honor), at the right of the . | bride's mother (hostess). No Candles on Luncheon Table Dear Mrs. Beeckman: Is it proper for me to use candle- stick with unlighted candles in them on my luncheon table? I have two pairs of beautiful match- ing candlesticks, and would like to use them not only for their beauty but also for the interesting bal- ance they give to my table-setting. But I seem to remember that I read in your column that this use is not correct. T. W. No, it is not correct to use can- dlesticks and candles on'a lunch-, eon table unless your dining-room is s0 dark that the candles are real- ly needed on the table. But since you say "with unlighted candles in the candlesticks" I assume that the candlelight is not needed. Christmas--Gift Technique Echo from Christmas . . . the how-silly -I-was regret of the girl who gave a wristwatch to a boy whom she'd known quite casually and for only a few minutes. PS. he gave her a book. And what a lesson in taste, her bad taste, his good taste, is here! Nasal Infection May Be Chronic By HERMAN N.

Fleischmann's Jamaica Chief Likes Canada (The very day the following in- terview with Jamaicans visiting On- tario appeared in The London Free Press, they boarded a plane for Cleveland, the first stage of their journey back to the West Indies. Last Sunday, they met their death in a plane crash in Virginia. If plane reservations can be secured, their daughter who is a student at Alma College, St. Thomas, will be accompanied to Jamaica by Rev. Dr. P. 8. Dobson, principal of the College. The intention is to have the bodies of the two crash victims cremated and the ashes flown to Jamaica for disposal.) The first visit to Canada has proven to be "love at first flight" to Inspector E. G, Orrett, of the semi-military Jamaica constabul- ary, chief of police at Kingston, Jamaica, Inspector and Mrs, Or- rett flew to Canada when their daughter, Sheila, enrolled in Alma College, St. Thomas, last Septem- ber. They have been living in London, Ont.,, and have made many friends 'during their stay. Soldierly graying, Inspector Orrett told The Free Press it would be only "au revoir" not "good - bye" when he and his wife board a Trans-Canada airliner for Cleveland today on thé first leg of their hop to the West Indies. "I have met Chief Earl Knight and many of his staff and officers of the Provincial Police and R.C. M.P., and I consider their forces smart and well-disciplined," com- mented the Jamaican, who has 25 years' police experience. Military Bearing The most outstanding charae- teristic of the Jamaican, besides his geniality and chain-smoking is his military bearing. He comes from a long line of soldiers, Be- fore joining the constabulary he served in the 2nd Battalion of the British West Indies Regiment in the First Wogld War and was with General Allenby's forces in Palestine when the Allied push was made against the Turks. He said he wanted tn get into the armed forces in the late war but authorities held him as commis- sioned constabulary officer. On his return to Kingston he will become acting deputy commission. er, second highest rank in the service, Just after the First World War he commanded the local forces at Kingston and is proud to have had men serving under him who had been commanded by his fath- er, Lt.-Col. E. G. Orrett, assistant staff officer. "I found Canadians friendly and hospitable, and since my stay here have met some charming people and made very good friends, true friends, not just 'ships that pass in the night.' " Ja- maicans, he said, were internat- ionally minded, probably because they met people from all parts of the world, He hoped Canadians would learn more of "The Pearl of the Antilles" and would come there for year. round swimming and outdoor sports, Rum Inferior Jamaican rum consumed in Canada was not up to standards of rum served in Jamaica, the in- spector found, He was surprised that his fellow Jamaicans did not put their best foot forward when marketing the island's famous product. While in London, Inspector and Mrs, Orrett renewed acquaintan- ces with Mr, and Mrs. Arthur Van Deipen, of Maitland Street. Mrs. Van Deipen at one time worked Vn Deipen at one time worked in the West Indies with a fruit company. "Through the courtesy of certain London people I had a chance to see some of your won- derful industries," added the in- spector, Although Jamaica never sees snow, this visitor said his first Oanaqlan winter had been enjoy- able, Fhe Movie Column By HELEN BANNERMAN Canadian Press Staff Writer Montreal's dancing Johnny Coy, whom a lot of people think is a sure bet to step into Fred Astaire's vacated shoes, is sharing with Spike Jones all the critics' praise for the new picture "Ladies' Man" starring Eddie Bracken. To a man, the New York critics have been doleful about the film which fails to give Bracken or its other players a chance. But they all have had nice things to' say about the Coy boy. Johnny's main place in the film is beating out expert rhythms in J two tap numbers while he is theo- retically a bell-boy delivering a m e in a hotel lobby. Spike Jones and the City Slickers tear into "Holiday For Strings" and other numbers in a crowded sub- way train. Children's Specials South of the border a good many children go to the movies regularly on Saturdays, just as they do in Canada, and parents, teachers and others with the youngsters' welfare at heart have been justifiably alarmed at the unsuitable programs they often see. Until recently exhibitors seldom took their child audiences into con- sideration except perhaps to add a western serial or cartoon to the regular program. The result was that children often had to see films not at all suited to either their un- derstanding or their morals. To remedy this the Motion Pic- ture Association headed by Eric Johnston, has arranged with 10 major producers to make available prints of the. best children's pic- tures of the last 20 years. 28 features, all approved by review- ing troupes as ideal for children, have been made available in United States film ex These films include favorites like "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn," "Alice in Wonderland," "Anne of Green Gables," "Anne of Windy Poplars," "Mrs. Wiggs of the Cab- bage Patch," and "Poor Little Rich Girl."
