Oshawa Irish Linen Shown For Cruise Wear American fashion creators have always placed Irish linen high on their preferred list and because of its firm crispness, have featur- a starring role, Sun worshippers must be catered to, 80 in view of this designers these days have had a tendency to stray from their studio drawing boards to spend hours in museums browsing about and giving their attention to de. Sign, costume and art objects or taking off by plane to South Am- erica, Mexico or the tropics. Dorothy Cox, designer for Mc. Mullen classics, dashed all the way to Nassau to study and ob- serve wardrobe needs first hand. E characteristic quality of Irish linen, which lends itself to beau- tiful tailoring, is displayed to advan. tage in this deceptively simple dress. A square neckline is finished with a small half collar and the fly front closing is fastened at the waist with a self belt and ornamental tortoise shell buckle.

To accent the tropical mood, Miss Cox unearthed a native craftsman who took her designs and under her supervision created ornamen- tal buttons and jewelry from po- lished turtle shells, Large fish and miniature tortoise buttons add to the excitement and novel- ty of crisp linen casuals.

W, Brog- an, professor of political science at Cambridge, told the Royal Dublin Society. Between 1820 and 1920, nearly 5,500,000 Irish people settled in the United States, becoming the "basic proletariat" of the country. The only parallel in history was the migration from Portugal to Brazil Even so, sald Professor Brogan, the proportion of Irish stock was higher in Newfoundland, Australia and Scotland. Nfld, YWCA Worker Visits YWCA Here Miss Pamela Pinsent, a New- foundlander who has recently been appointed general secretary of the Y.W.C.A. in St. John's, Nfld, was a guest at Adelaide House Tuesday and yesterday. She was particularly interested in the To Keep Fit classes and the Sketching Club' which she was able to observe on Tuesday night. The Y.W.C.A. program here is similar to that carried on in St. John's, she said. She flew to Toronto from St. John's, and ex- pects to fly back. The Y.WC.A. in St, John's, is chiefly recreational, she says. The membership is almost 800; 600 of them are teen-agers. In the War- time Brides' Club there is a week- ly attendance of 140. Volunteers care for the children while the mothers are at the meeting. The Y.WC.A. in Newfoundland . is affiliated to the Canadian Y.W., but the Newfoundland one be- came financially independent last year, Miss Pinsent reports, Citi- zens of St. John's contributed $8,- 000 in the first appeal the asso- ciation made for financial sup. port. A National Young Adult As- sembly. is being planned for the east coast of Canada and New- foundland for next September, The gathering will probably be held in the Laurentians, New Doll Club Wants Truly Canadian Doll Plans for sponsoring the produc- tion of a doll, which will be typi- cally Canddian and which will' im- personate an outstanding character were outlined at the inaugural meeting yesterday of the Canadian Doll Club in Toronto. Its member- ship composed of doll collectors, and believed to be the first of its kind to be organized in Canada, will have as club headquarters the "Doll Room," home of Mrs. F. E. Robson, 98 Lawton Blvd., Toronto. An exhibit representing a num- ber of doll collectors will be held in the early spring, the proceeds to be devoted to relief among war orphans. The importance of an effort to preserve dolls which have become historic in Ontario because of their age and which were treas- ured by children of yesteryears was stressed by Mrs. L. A. Macklin of Stratford, elected president. Archbishop to Open Christ Church Here Most Rev. Derwyn T. Owen, Arch- bishop of Toronto, assisted by Rt. Rev. A. R. Beverley, Suffragan Bishop, will perform the official opening and dedication of Christ Memorial Church on March 13, it was announced by Rev. H. D.

Cable)-- In obvious high spirits, more than 1,000 troops sailed last night for Singapore aboard the Empress of Australia, hurriedly reconverted to meet complaints of troops who walked off her sister ship, the Empress of Scotland, last month protesting conditions aboard the troop carrier The Empress of Australia now offers two luxuries, brightly car- peted lounges with divans, easy chairs and alcoved writing tables where troops may write letters in comfort and privacy. There is also a commodious snack bar, facilities for deck games, con- cert parties and movie programs daily, Instead of tiered sleeping berths, the men now enjoy naval type hammacks spaced comfortably apart. Lieut.-Col. Car McRae, officer | Gill commanding, said that "we had to hustle to carry out reconversion of the Empress in time for sailing." He said he would hold a weekly mess deck conference with troops' representatives to consider com- plaints and suggestions--a revolu- tionary procedure under military or- ganization. During the war the Empress of Australia carried 5800 men each trip. On recent voyages the num- ber was reduced to 3,000. Now her complement would be only 1,000 so there "will be no cause for com- plaint on grounds of over crowding," he added.

Urges Wider Service In Freezing Foods The fist play by the Y.W.CA. Teen Age Dramatic Club, "The Im- of Being Y well Locker plant operators should of- | which 1g fer customers preparation service in freezing fruit and vegetables, DI. | Jack Donald K. Tressler told 300 dele- gates to the Ontario Frosted Food Locker Association at their fourth convention in 'Toronto yesterday. Dr. Tressler is a senior industrial fellow to the Mellon Institute of Industrial Research, "Freezing food offers valuable facilities for both saving food and money," he said. "Unless the house- wife knows what foods to freeze and how to freeze them better than those she buys, she won't rent lock- er space. "Preparation in freezing meat is simple," Dr, Tressler added. "How- ever, precautions must be taken in packaging to prevent dessication and drying-up." He urged the ut- most care in fruit and vegetable freezing. Frujt and vegetables must be absolutely fresh, different varie- ties should be experimented with to find which is the most satisfactory, and painstaking work must go into blanching and packaging, he de- clared. "Peas, asparagus, green beans and sweet corn are the easiest vege- tables to freeze," Dr. Tressler said. Spinach, broccoli, soy beans, Swiss chard, squash, carrots and beets are al] excellent if prepared well, he continued. He warned members against freezing summer squash and torn on cob unless very experienced. Regarding fruits, Dr. Tressler re- commended particular attention paid to variety. "Strawberries, rasp- berries, peaches, blueberries are ex- cellent, Plum are too tart, but splendid for pies; grapes and black- berries don't freeze well." Ex-Students of OCVI Win Honors at Tech.
