Some prosecutions are anticipa- ted. Several bakers are under the misapprehension that they are al- lowed to take a 10 per cent in- "| crease on their overall business. This is not so, WPTB Food offi- clals point out." The regulation makes it clear that a 10 per cent increase is 'allowed on each item except bread, Bread is defined as "white bread, vitamin B (Canada Approved) bread, brown, whole wheat, cracked wheat or rye bread." Tarts Jump 20 Per Cent One baker for instance, has in- creased the price of his meringue tarts from 45c¢ to 55c--a jump of more than 20 per cent. He ex- plained to a WPTB investigator that he was not raising the price of his other lines and that he un- derstood it was alright if he took a 10 per cent increase on his whole turnover, "If a baker were allowed to do this, he would be able to take a big increase on certain bakery items, turn them out in large quantities and discontinue other more essential food lines," the WPTB explained, Some bake shops are reported .| to have moved the price of their pies up more than 10 per cent. For instance, a 30c ple may be raised to 33c, but no more, ac- cording to the regulation, Tarts which formerly sold at 40c a doz, may be increased to 44c. Where they previously sold 3 for 10c, the ceiling now is 3 for 1lc. Doughnuts which were priced at 80c a doz, may sell for 10 per cent more, which is 33c a doz, At 2 for 6¢ formerly, they could now od be 2 for 6c, but no higher, ing In Fractions 'Where the increase of 10 per cent results in a split cent, the half cent or over may be increas- ed to the higher cent," WPTB pointed out, "But if the fraction is less than the half, then the cus. tomer gets the advantage of the lower cent." . The Prices Board is anxious to make sure that the new ceilings are held and that no bakers take undue advantage of the authoriz- ed increases. Consumers are ask- ed to phone in any possible over- charges on bakery products at once to the nearest WPTB office. Bakers who don't understand their position under the approved price increases are also advised to check with the Food division of the Prices Board. Worst-dressed Screen Stars Hollywood-- (BUP)-- Fashion designer Ray Driscoll put Judy Garland, who dresses "like a tired clubwoman," at the top of his list of Hollywood's 10 worst-dressed women, "I told her the same thing last year," Driscoll said. "She still hasn't taken my advice." Driscoll's other worst-dressed glamour girls included: 2. Greer Garson. "Her clothes suggest a kewpie-doll complex." 3. Deanna Durbin, "She looks like she got the first grab in a grabbag." 4. Jane Russel, "She doesn't realize it's better to conceal than to reveal." 5. Diana Lynn. "A grown-up who dresses like a teen.ager In distress." 6. Joan Fontaine, "She aspires ing doggedly, rather than beautifully, pto the mode." '7. Jeanne Crain. "You'd think she did it on purpose." 8. Dinah Shore. "She tries to dress the perennial ingenue." 9. Maria Montez, "If she wears any more feathers, she should be .| able to fly by herself." 10. Constance Moore, "Instead of being the best dressed, she is the most dressed."

We want to visit Sweden, our birthplace, this summer. My wife has no birth certificate and we cannot get passage. How shall we go sbout it? How long will it take to get citizenship?" First the trip to Sweden. If you consult your Swedish Consul, J. Ander, 517 Jarvis St, he will give you all the help you need. About the citizenship, you file your declaration of intention to become Canadian citizens in Room 13, City Hall, Take a picture of yourself and your wife, and also have at your fingertips the day and year you landed in Canada, your ship and your port. Your first application will cost $3.00, your second $10.00. * You will have your citizenship papers in 1% to 2 years. x x «x Brown Eggs vs. White: "Are brown eggs more nutritious than white eggs? Our grocer sorts out the brown eggs for his favored customers." Actually, the color of the shell makes no difference to the food value of the egg. Brown or white, if it's a Grade A egg, it's good. I'm afraid your grocer is pulling his customers' legs. x % x Widows and Widowers: "How much longer do women live than men? Is it because they are more even tempered? What is the pro- portion of widows to widowers? How many widows re-marry? When?" Life insurance companies com- pute that the average life of a man is 63.7 years; of a woman, 68.4 years. The average woman lives five years longer than the average man. Why? Guessing, I'd say it was because women are tougher than' men. At any rate, women collect four-fifths of all the life insurance paid in Canada. There are four widows to one widower in Canada; 38% of widows re-marry and most of those re-marry within 2 years. * x %x More Sugar?: "Is it true the sugar ration is to be increased? It so, when?" Sugar rumors are flying thick and fast. An increase of 10° pounds per person per annum may be granted Americans this coming spring. This would in- crease the individual American ration from 25 to 35 pounds. If this increase goes through, Cana. dians may get the same increase. But in the meantime, don't pam- per your sweet tooth, and keep the lid on the sugar bowl.
