Daytime dress- es are much longer . . . and this means really long! Slim skirts are often slit to give walking freedom. Fuller skirts gain their important wide hemline with unpressed pleats . +. . . discreet flares. Signs point to longer lengths yet, with some designers trailing drapery and sash- ends below the skirt hem. With all eyes thus concentrated on the hemline, stockings take on a new importance, To complete her new, longer costume, Milady will natur- ally choose slim, smooth-fitting full-fashioned stockings, which will fit her "spot-lighted" ankles to per- fection Once a Speller Always a Speller SR Age has nothing to do with spell- ing.

Yesterday in a special meeting of the Imperial Privy Council, at which representatives from the Commonwealth Dominions attended The King formally approved her betrothal to Lieut. Philip Mount. batten of the Royal Navy--her friend from childhood. The engagement received Royal consent July 9. Yesterday's was a 175.year-old ritual, prescribed by the Royal Marringes Act of 1772, laying down that descendants of King George II must ask Royel per mission to marry and that as a pre- requisite, the permission had to be "declared in Council." C da's Repr tative Rt. Hon. C. D, Howe, Canadian Reconstruction Minister, was form- ally sworn in as a member of the Imperial Privy Council] immediately before yesterday's meeting #o thal he could be entitled to participate representing Canada. He was 'named to the council in June of last year but the meeting yesterday was his first chance to be installed. A special supplement to th? Lon. don Gasgette last night set forth the session, at which The King bowed and said, simply, "approved" when Princess Elizabeth's petition for per- mission to marry Mountbatien wag presented. Princess Elizabeth still has not | design her bridal wear. London socialites are nflutter to learn, while two or three of the more unstable are known to be preparing designs "in case." The wedding will represent least diffeulty for the ecclesiastical auth. oritics. The Very Rev. Dr. Alan Camp. bell, Dean of Westminster, said yesterday, "There will be nothing out of the ordinary about it. We have various precedents to go boy and wiil no doubt {follow the general lines of other Royal weddings. The service will be the ordinary mar. riaze scrvice of the Church of England." (Philip is a member of the Greek Orthodox Church, in full com. union with the Church of Eng- land). Meanwhile, the Archbishop of Canterbury's most serious problem is to find someone who can wiite fancily enough to inscribe the Royal marriage license. Royal marriage licenses usually are inscribed by hand with a quill pen in old English block lettering, but the man who had penned them for years now is dead. In 1047 England, experis in the art of penmanship are hard to find, The Archbishop's office said today it had not been decided whether the Royal license would be on vellum or parchment. And one spokesman said it might even be, eliminated. BBC officials are preparing to broodeast and perhaps televise the event, Clothes, Well-Stocked Stores Stagger English Visitor Niagara Falls, Ont.--8eeing the lovely ensembles worn by women in this tountry "is like being dropped into fairyland," Miss Theresa Wal- lach of London, England, declared here, when she paused for a few hours on a motorcycle trip from New York to Chicago. She was impressed with the attractive clothes and the smartness of the women in Canada and the United States and amazed "that one can go into a store and buy almost any- thing one wants," in contrast with the approaching economic crisis in Great Britain. Miss Wallach is on the way to Chicago to meet a pen pal of the same name with whom she has been corresponding since by-line articles by the two women appear= ed in an addition of the Christian Science Monitor s2veral years ago. The Chicago Miss Wallach is a fashion writer. : The British girl served seven years with the auxiliary' territorial service, and is interested in engi- neering and mechanics and hopes to obtain employment in those fields in Chicago. The friendship of the two girls of the same name goes back to the early days of the war. The British woman contributed an article on "Women in the Workshops," and when the Monitor arrived with her story she noticed another yarn about silk stockings by a writer of the same name. She made enquir- fes and the correspondence friend- ship developed. Miss Wallach left here this af- ternoon for London and Windsor where she will re-cross the border into the United States. Cycling is speedier and mcre pleasant in this country on account of the good condition of the roads, she said. TIPS FOR TEENS -- How to Make a Movie Date By ELINOR WILLIAMS "Please print something in the 'teen column about, theatre eti- quette," suggests a high school hoy who has occasional movie dates on Friday or Saturday nights. Bo let's start at the beginning. When you ask her for a date, boys, skip the queries, "What are you doing Friday night?" or "Are you doing anything Friday?" or "How about a date Saturday night?" They're bad manners, sound crude and prove you're far from smooth in the date department. Instead begin telling her what you have in mind-~"There's a good movie at the Palace; can you go Friday night?" or simply, "Can you go to the movies Saturday night?" Tell her what time you'll call for her at her home and be on time, wearing a necktie, sports jacket or a sult, For dates, sweaters and | sport -shirts without a tie are out. Mokt boys prefer to have their date wear a dress-up dress, so it's up to you, boys, to look as if the date mattered to you, too, by wearing somethine different from everyday school garb. . ...aet to open doors for her aud help her with her coat. Ask her where she prefers to sit in the theatre before buying the tickets. If there's an usher, let her pre. cede you, following the usher. If there's no usher, go down the aisl? ahead of her to find seats. When you leave the theatre, she should go first, : 4 Putting your arm around her in the theatre is not only the worst of bad 'manners but also embarrassing and uncomfortable for her and dis. tasieful to others near you. Neck. ing--even in the last row ar balcony ~cheapens both boy and girl in the eyes of others, so don't be influ: enced by the fact that some movie- goers think a public love.scene of their own should go with every double feature, '| statt eo Library Books Chosen For Summer Reading By JEAN FETTERLY, © Chief Librarian 'GENTLEMAN'S AGREEMENT' By Laura E, Hobson This novel has attracted a great deal of attention since March when it tirst came out. Although a cru- sading novel it requires little effort to read and yet brings out the trutns of everyday lite with une | expected realism. The characters, chosen more or less as types, be- come real people. The theme of the story is anu-semitism, but even tne wots anti-senuve would likely, if he started the book, read it througn to tind out just what happens to Posqand Katny, Anne and Dave. afMp Schuyler Green comes to ew York from California as a spondent on a reputedly lieral magazine . Since he is un- known in New York he is aole to masquerade as a Jew to write a series ot articles waich he entides "I was a Jew for Kight Weeks." The repercussions are surprising. His sister, married to a miliionaire in another city, screams that she is being ostracised; his fellow work- ers in the office show their hostil- ity in many ways; his building superintendent tries to prevent him from adding four significent let« ters to his name whicn he posts on his mail box; his reservation is turned down at an expensive hotel in Vermont. When his only son is hurt Philip feels that he really uderstands the meaning of anti semitism: Finally, he becomes con- vinced very muth against his will, that even his fiance, although out- wardly agreeing with his views on anti-semitism, is inwardly proud of her Episcopalian background and unwilling to exposé herself for her so-called convictions, Because of a "gentleman's. agreement' she will neither sell nor rent her coun- try home to Jews. Although most Canadians hope to make their country a decent place in which to live they recognize that prejudice and hate are seeping in, seeking to destroy that hope. The authors wish is that this century will be remembered not as the American Century or the Russian Century or the Atomic Century, but as "the Century that broadened and implemented the idea of free- dom, all the freedoms of all men," Just now, that hope seems rather slight, The plot may be rather thin and the denouement according to pat- tern, At times it is unnecessarily crude, It is still a good story and a comprehensive portrait of anti- semitism, This book should at least waken us up and make us think!

Housemaid's Job For English Typist London, July 30--(CP) -- Doris Holloway, petite foreign office typist, will be among the first air- borne immigrants to Ontario under the government plan. €he plans to work £s a domestic servant, and is scheduled to take off for Toronto Saturday. "I've always wanted to go to Ca- nada," said the 24-year-old brunet te, 112 pounds of trim figure. "Now Ontario has given me the best opportunity." As she spoke at the Ontario House counter, newsreel cameras ground shots to be shown in Brit- ish theatres and which may be in- strumental in speeding the flow of imm ts. Relaxing after the hot lights were turned off, she added, eyes sparkling: "The only thing I ever really studied in school was geography lessons about Canada, I imagine there will be plenty of room to breathe there. "Besides, people will be more friendly and there will be none of this British reserve." She is willing to work in a hotel, restaurant. or private home, and says she is a "pretty good cook." While she says she will be glad to go anywhere for a job, she hopes to be near the Great Lakes where there is "plenty of water." She showed she had been brushing up on the subject of reeling off a list of lakeshore, towns and indicated preference for Toronto, Windsor or Kingston lo Theme of Canada's national women's organisations at the Oa- nadian National Exhibition this year is "We Build Canada." 509%...Is The Difference « « » that You'll SAVE IN OUR SMASHING SALE this AUGUST! © All Fresh New Top Notch Furs in the Laiest of Fashion] New Lengths, New Collars, New Sleeves, "% and Fur Prices are Many, Many Dollars Less Than You Ever Dreamed| COME IN and LOOK AROUND and SEE the Best Values Anywhere| FURS 70 King St. East (In the Hotel Genosha) PHONE $29 The "Cup that Cheers" Sometimes Cheerless How. many women know how to make a raally good cup of tea?
