Many Girls Enter Home Ec. Field Niagara Falls, Ont. (Special) --Dr, Margaret 8. Cready of McGill University, presi- dent-elect of the Canadian Home Economics Association and 50 mem- bers of the organization from On- tario and Quebec points, attended the annual convention of the New York State Home HEcono- mics Association, held in the twin cities of Niagara Falls during the week-end, with a total registration of 287 delegates. Dr. McCready, at the interna- tional luncheon here on Satuday afternoon, declared that member- ship in the organization in Canada has passed the 600 mark. There was a definite upsweep in the num- ber of young women entering the home economics field since the be- ginning of the war, Dr. McCready sald. During the past five or six years the home economics schools at the universities in this country have not been able to accommodate all the applicants. Mrs. Alexanderia J. Davison, Tor- onto, declared that women have a great responsibility in this cata- clysmic world, in which their future and happiness are threatened by all sorts of "isms". Women could be crusaders for adequate housing and make a real contribution towards the preservation and advancement of our western civilization. Women need to be recognized, and, if they will apply and practise 'tolerance, emotional stabilityf mtellectual and moral integrity, they will find per- sonal happiness and will make a greater contribution to the happi- ness of the nation, she said.

Willa Cather, 70 Novelist, Passes New York, April 24--(AP)--Willa Cather, 70, one of North. America's foremost novelists, died today. Cause of death was reported as cerebral hemorrhage. She had resided here many years. Miss Cather, born near Winches- ter, Va., but reared on a Nebraska ranch, had been a school teacher, newspaper writer, magazine .editor and poet, as well as an outstanding novelist. She wrote her first novel, "Alexander's Bridge," in 1912. In 1922 she received the Pulitzer Prize for what was named the outstand- ing novel of the year, "One of Ours." She chose a Quebec City setting for one of her novels--"Shadows on the Rock"--published im 1931. A great part of her work dealt with the people and scenes of her early years on the ranch near Red Cloud, Neb., where her family had moved when she was 8 years old. Nebraska was still pretty much pioneer country in those days and Miss Cather grew up in "tomboy" fashion--she was at home in the saddle just as much as the boys of her acquaintance. Most of her early schooling was at home, where two of her grand- mothers tutored her, bécause there were no near-by schools. However, when she reached high school age her family moved to town and she went to school there. Miss Cather worked her way through the University of Nebraska doing newspaper correspondence and this experience stood her in good stead upon her graduation in 1895--she had decided upon a writ- ing career. Fond of music and determined to live in a city where she could find concerts as well as intellectual com- panionship, she chose Pittsburgh. There she went to work for the Daily Leader and became telegraph editor and dramatic critic. But she began to lose interest in the journalistic profession and in 1901 obtained the position of head of the English department in Al- legheny High School at Pittsburgh. At the same time, she was begin- ning to write verse and two years later she published a volume of it. A volume of short stories pub- lished in 1905 drew favorable com- ment and led her to New York and a job on McClure's magazine. She became managing editor of it in 1906 and kept the position six years. Afterward she became a free-lance writer. Camping Association To Meet in Ottawa Montreal, April 24 (CP).--Miss Dais Gass, president of the Canadian"Camping Association, an- nounced yesterday that the Asso- ciation's annual meeting and camp institute will be held in Ottawa May 17 and 18, with the theme for this year's discussion "New Horizons in Canadian Camping." Miss Gwen Crawford Bride of Colin Kane Miss Gwendoliné Mildred Craw- ford, daughter of Mr. and Mrs: Rob- ert Crawford, was united in mar- riage with Mr. Colin Patrick Kane, son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Fran- cis Kane, on Saturday afternoon in the chapel of St. Andrew's United Church. The Rev. George Telford officiated. Daffodils and snap- dragons formed the setting for the ceremony and Miss Elsie Arrol play- ed "O Perfect Love" while the register was being signed. Gowned in white satin with a sweetheart neckline and a long veil, the bride was given in marriage by her father. She carried a bouquet of red and white carnations tied with white satin ribbon. Miss Kathleen Glover was the bride's attendant and wore a gown "of light blue net over taffeta. Her bouquet of pink carnations was tied with blue ribbon. Mr. Gerald Crawford, brother of the bride, was best man. A reception was held at the Betty Cake Shoppe. The bride's mother, wearing a pink silk jersey frock with blue accessories, received the 30 guests and was assisted by Miss Mary Kane in teal blue with black accessori es. For the wedding trip to Niagara Falls, the bride donned a yellow dress with matching accessories. On their return, the couple will live in Oshawa. Grandma Ousted, Family Loses San Francisco , April 26--The American family has lost the help and advice of the grandmother and has, in her place, adopted the serv- ices of the "baby-sitter." This was the suggestion offered the final gen- eral session of the 74th annual meeting of the National Conference of Social Work. The speaker was Dr. Margaret Mead, associate cur- ator, American Museum of Natural History, in New York. "The family is an incredibly tough institution," said Dr. Mead. It is not likely to crumble." Never theless, thought Dr. Mead, the American family is in a difficult position, Marriage For Love "The belief that marriage should be for love, and with little regard for soberer considerations of com- mon background, temperamental compatability or suitable and com- plementary skills and aspirations, has existed for a long time," stated Dr. Mead. Although the young people of a generation ago might have thought they were engaging in a "marriage of free choice," in actuality their choice was made within fairly confined limits, among people of the same locality, of the same class, with the same ideas and prejudices. Marriage Terminable = Giving her opinion that more serious than the number of divorces is the expectation of divorce, Dr. Mead stated. "People enter marriage now with the idea that it is termin- able, except for that portion of so- ciety within the folds of a religious communion. Another circumstance contributing to the fragility of the modern fam- ily was the lack of proximity of re- latives, neighbors and friends who, a generation ago, could have been called upon to stay with the child- ren or to help in times of emergency. (Dr. Mead made the interesting comment that "perhaps the most significant word which has develop- ed in the last 10 years is the word 'sitter'," adding that the "sitter" might be "psychopathic or anything at all") Days of Clan Gone Dr. Mead stated that in expecting the inexperienced young family to manage their own finances, to care for the sick, to meet major emer- gencies all by themselves, we were expecting them "to do what the whole clan used to do." She maintained: "The family has not just suddenly lost its moral fibre--it has lost its grandmother!" Another serious development within the American family, accord- ing to Dr. Mead, was that "the ter- minability of marriage has made woman's position so exceedingly poor." Not only was she insecure In the role of wife, but in the roles of er and homemaker, the, modern woman foun; CORSON. d herself in » L The girls of Britain's Land Army are working hard this Spring. All through the worst winter in living they struggled through to reach the farms. Later, floods cut off their hostels for days on end, Now the girls are helping to repair some of the havoc ite blizzards and floods have caus- It's estimated that because of snow and floods more than two million of Britain's sheep, at least 30,000 head of cattle and about two million dollars worth of smaller livestock have been lost. 100,000 acres of winter wheat have been written off as a total loss . . . but, as Minister of Agriculture Tom Williams said, Britain's soil is rich and her arms are strong and every- one will work hard in an attempt to make good the losses. Already volunteers--students, clerks, factory hands and housewives -- have put their names down for harvest camps, Recruiting Campaign The Women's Land Army has opened a big new recruiting cam- paign . , . aiming at more than the 1943 peak figure of 77,000 girls, and are getting an average of 500 en- quiries a day. The recruits are asked to be from 18 to 40 years of age, They are interviewed to make sure they're suited to that type of work and a few days later have a medical examination. Then the attractive green and brown uniform is issued -- uniform is top-coat, breeches, green sweater, shirts, socks, heavy shoes, hat and badge, jeans, and if the new member of Britain's Women's Land Army is to do dairy work, she is issued high rubber boots and a milking coat. 8he has these replaced once a year, THIS WEEK IN BRITAIN -- : Land Army Girls Are Battling From United Kingdom Information Office of civilian clothing coupons, for she can always wear a dress or suit when she's off duty. Gets Training If she's going in for dairy work, the recruit goes to a farm training centre for a month. When she leaves, she's not an experienced r, but she knows exactly how do it. Britain's farmers, who were a bit sceptical about Land Girls when they first appeared at the beginning of the war, now say they'd rather have girls than men for milking and calf-rearing, fact, milk production has gone up since the girls took over. The greatest demand for these 'Farmerettes' is the dairy work and many farmers find the Mobile Milk Maid scheme very useful. This plan relieves farm hands of having to milk their cows seven days a week, The Mobile Milk Maids spend a day a week at each farm; and they have to be good at their job, for cows can be dangerous. They sometimes gore milkers who treat them unskilifully. Do General Farming If a landgirl doesn't want to spec ialize in a particular branch like dairy-work or fruit farming, she starts straight away on general farming. She's sent out with a group of other girls in charge of a forewoman, starting with simple jobs like hoeing or potato-picking. Later, she'll probably learn to drive a tractor, care for lambs and do a million other farm jobs that men never dreamed women could do a few years ago, It's a tough life for girls, but it's healthy and good fun . .. and cer- tainly there's no more important job in Britain today than winning but she also has her full allowance the Battle for Food. Mr, Leonard Knight, Executive Scout Commissioner, spoke on "Scouting, its Meaning, Method and Impact on Boys" to the 4th Oshawa Scout and Cub Mothers' Auxiliary at its monthly meeting held in St. Andrew's United Church last Thursday evening. Introduced by Scout Master Ron Nicholson, Mr. Knight stressed the spiritual side of Scouting as being more important than the material side. He also described the import- ant part the mothers should play in helping the Scout movement of the Church. He related graphically how Scout- ing was carried on under cover in Denmark and Holland during the war, Those who achieved the almost impossible for their country's sake, were Scouts, he said. Pointing out that Scouting meets the particular thinking of a boy from babyhood to manhood, Mr. Knight said that when a boy was old enough to join a Wolf Cub pack he learned obedience, cleanliness and safety through his leaders. Scouting Satisfies At 11 or 12 years of age, a boy begins to think differently. He wants tp have a hobby and to or- ganize his own games and hikes. "The natural place for any boy is out of doors, learning to enter into the serious things of life. Scouting takes in everything a boy has a desire to do," the speaker declared. Leonard Knight Addresses ; 4th Scout Mothers' Aux'y Rovering meets a boy's desire to find his right place in life. It offers a specially designed program of ac- tivities for the®late teens to help make good citizens. Scouting is more than just an ac- tivity, Mr. Knight concluded; it is a preparation for a decent adult life, based on a spiritual code. It is open to every boy, no matter the race, color or creed. All Scouts believe in God, and Scout and Cub masters can urge the boys to go to their church services. In this way a boy's faith is developed. Once a boy is a Scout, he is a Scout forever, Port Perry Visitors The president, Mrs. C. E. Whalley, opened the meeting with the Scout Mother's Prayer and welcomed members from the newly formed Mothers' Auxillary of Port Perry and visiting members from the 16th Oshawa. She also thanked Knight for his enlightening talk. It was announced that a rum- mage sale would be held Friday, May 9, and the mothers were urged to attend the church parade at St. Andrew's United Church yesterday. Mrs. Lane, president of the Port Perry Scout Mothers' Auxiliary, ex- tended an invitation to the mem- bers to attend their dance and euchre party sponsored by the Boy Scouts, and to be held in Port Perry High School next Friday, May 2. The meeting closed with the repe- tition of the Scout Mother's Prom- ise, after which lunch was served. TIPS.FOR TEENS -- Thorough Daily Skin Cleansing By ELINOR WILLIAMS Did you know-- --That blackheads are dirt-filled pore-openings, a sign that your daily skin cleansing is inadequate/ Use mild soap and warm water on your face every morning and night, also after school, if possible. Apply soap-suds with a clean wash cloth or with clean fingertips in a light, round-and-round action, paying special attention to forehead, nose and chin where the skin is oiliest and blackheads are most likely to flourish. If your skin is very oily, let the lather stay on it a few mo- ments before warm and cool rinses. --That your skin is oily if it sometimes gleams with moisture on the nose and forehead? "Blot" it with a clean handkerchief or cleansing tissue to remove some of the excess oil between face- washings. This will help to lessen the tendency toward clogged pore- openings, blackheads and pimples. The constant flow of oil from the tiny glands under the skin's surface will choke the pore-openings unless you remove it. --That blonde hair needs to be shampooed more frequently than dark hair? Locks with a suany, golden glint quickly show dust, dirt and oil, so they must be sham- pooed about every ten days with daily brushing and an occasional dry shampoo (a special cleansing powder) or a liquor scalp cleanser between regular shampoos. --That blonde hair is thinner and more fragile than darker hair? It should never be brushed too vigorously or scrubbed too hard. Give it gentle care. --That boys notice a girl's com~ plexion first of all? Smooth, clear skin is her most attractive asset, they maintain. ; --That girls always notice a boys hands? To win their approval, boys must have clean hands with mails that show good care, neither too long nor too short and never grimy. .

I only get angry with bad books. Therefore, a book that makes me angry is, I think, a bad book. --Harold Nicholson on BBC deast, . Build Model Suburb Sydney, Australia, April 28-- (CP) --A big attraction at the Sydney Royal Show this year, the homes and gardens exhibition represented a "model suburb of tomorrow," set amid a square of formal gardens and rockeries, Twenty women, working steadily for a month, built the square and gardens, planned to scale, around the model homes, some of which are six feet high. The women made six different types of gardens. A central fountain bore a giant figure of Spring, the work of the Sydney sculptor, Mrs. Annis Laeubli, The gardens included an ornamental, formal and English garden, a rose garden, a "milady's garden" and a cascade. English-type hedges were made to separate the gardens, and to accentuate the de- sign. 7 Workers built with wood and wire mesh the basic shapes of formal ornamental trees, shrubs and clip- ped hedges, and women covered the frames with a thick coating of young ti-trees. When this was done, a topiarist clipped the ragged tle tree into the shapes of animals or birds. For the same gardens, six women, averaging 500 flowers a day, made 30,000 artificial flowers, including delphiniums, poinsettia, iris and wistaria. Scattered about the ex- hibit were 6,000 potted plants and about 300 miniature trees and shrubs planted in tubs below ground level. The thousands of plants for this exhibit, plus the labor used to display them, cost about $1,750. Fascinating Houses The model houses in the exhibit were as fascinating as the garden. Made entirely of plaster-cast and timber, they were complete to such details as modern circular clothes- lines and curtained windows. Two of the model homes were designs which won first and second prize in a recent home-planning compe- tition. India's contribution in dress ma- terials, handbags, evening bags, ex- quisite silver filigree dressing table sets, toilet preparations and scents, caused much interest among wo- men visitors to the empire section of the exhibition. Mrs. N. Rahman, whose husband directed this section, effectively draped models, sari- fashion and western fashion, to il- lustrate how Australian women can use India's rich brocades, colorful georgettes, embroideries and jewel- ry. Another section of special inter- est to women was the occupational therapy exhibit, arranged by the New South Wales state handicrafts committee of the Country Women's Association. It included the making of handicraft materials from the raw state. It showed, for example, how wool is dyed with vegetable colors, spun to the desired, thick- ness, and finally woven on 'a hand loom. 4TH OSHAWA GUIDES The following girls passed tests at the last meeting of the 4th Oshawa Company: Useful Article, Eleanor Loucke, Joan Connell and Beverley Thomas; Bandaging, Marilyn Ross, Marie Knox and Kay Simons; Na- ture, Eleanor Loucke, Beverley Thomas and Joan Connell.
