MENDING TIP Mending may not be constructive, but it prevents further destruction when properly and promptly done. Always mend at the first sign of wear, which saves the garment and makes the darn as inconspicucus as r-esible. Mend before laundering, since the washing action tends to cause further damage to an un. mended area. Northern Ontario. Visit Northern Ontario MR. and MRS. R. N.

Genealogists say there is a marked increase of in- terest, particularly among young people, in the ancestry of today's Australians. They figure this interest is regu- lated by an inexplicable cycle. As in' Canada, until the turn of the century, people kept careful nota- tions about births, marriages and deaths in the family Bible. From then until about 1930, there was less interest in family background. The Society of Australian Gen- ealogists, with a membership of 400 compared to 300 a year ago, annual- ly receives about 6,000 visitors--all hunting for information. The society is strict about in- quiries. No information is given until the inquirer proves honorable intentions. This step is taken, the society says, to guard against any- one who might have blackmail in mind and to ward off those seeking only gain of money or land from old wills, Occasionally, a woman stalks into the society's three-roomed base- ment office and asks for informa- tion about another woman's pro- genitors. It usually turns out that the inquirer wants to discover a skeleton in a neighbor's ancestral closet. One reason for genealogists' reti- cence is the role of convicts in Aus- tralian history. Everyone knows that Capt. Arthur Phillips arrived in Australia in 1788 with 11 ships carrying about 1,500 persons includ- ing 750 convicts. But no one knows exactly how many Australians are descended from these "First Fleet- ers." The society has records of all those who came in the,.Pirst Fleet but lacks information about many of their descendants, These blanks are partly due to misspelling of names and the fact there was no compulsory registration of births before 1856. It is estimated that thousands of Australians were born without bee ing registered and thousands more died unrecorded deaths. To add to the confusion, many early convicts, settlers and officials were never legally married. However, about 50" per cent of Australians haven't need to check back that far, These trace their grandparents back to the British Isles in the more recent past. Because 96 per cent of Austral- ians are of British stock, this coun- try's genealogical library--in Syd- ney--is stocked with English parish Tecords and lists of pupils who at- ed most of England's famous schools and universities. Some genealogical queries come from people in England, Canada and the United States.

This comes direct from William Saroyan, the fluent Fresno philosopher. The writer bounced into Holly- wood to see what the Cagneys are doing to his prize play, "The Time Of Your Life" He was pleased with the progress, much more so than with what MGM did to his "The Human Comedy." "They changed it around so much that the complete tone of the book was lost," he complained. "It turn- ed out to be mushy and 'Holly~ wood." " He told of an executives' meeting at MGM prior to the filming. One bigwig declared: "The book isn't an epic, but the movie will be." "That was the trouble," S8aroyan added. "The movies make epics of the simple and commonplace things." But the movies are coming along, he admitted. He said the industry is maturing and advancing to the extent that jt will soon be able to make adequate films of his writ- ings. "Actually, the public demands little of the movies, except a place to rest. I am resigned to seeing Mark Silver Anniversary MR. AND MRS.

But Not for Parisians By RONALD WRIGHT Paris, Aug. 7.--(Reuters) --Paris night life for Parisians themselves is a thing of the past--and food prices are the cause of it. Night life in the cafes goes on, as: it always did; but Parisians who take part in it are few and far between. Almost all the patrons are from overseas. Parisians, in fact, feel it grim and ironic that, when their own pleasures are being limited by lack of money, Paris should be the venue for the International Emergency Food Council and the "Save Eu- rope" economic conference. Parisians Scarce Nowadays, if you enter a cafe for a meal, you will either find the tables empty, or those dining will be American, British or continental visitors. You will seldom find a Parisian and his family there as .| you did in the old days. Parisians will take their families to a cafe for a drink; but that is all, They simply cannot afford the prices charged for food. As one put it: "I used to have one evening a week at a cafe and a cabaret. Now, if I could afford one evening a month, I would consider myself more fortunate than most Paris- fans." The cost of a good meal in a Par- isian night cafe now ranges from about $5 to anything up to $10. Cigarettes $2 a Pack If you go to a night club, where there is the usual cabaret, with singers, a band and dancing thrown in, a bottle of champagne for a party of four, it will cost from $20 to $25. A package of cigarettes, normally 40 cents, costs about $2. Most British visitors go to a night club--once. With currency restrictions they cannot afford more visits. American visitors, of course, haven't the same difficulty. There is no shortage of food in the cafes and night clubs. You can get most of the good things--if you can pay for them. Most of the food comes from the black market. The only thing that gives you worry over rationing is bread, which is, generally, of poor quality. Hotels serving daily meals insist on the production of bread coupons, but the night clubs do not bother to collect them.

Moly- neux seems to have kept in mind thie austerity rules still prevailing in Britain for the designing of his Paris fall collection. Molyneux also has a house in London, and it is he who makes dresses for the royal household. His has a typical English way of tailoring clothes, especially tailored suits and morning dresses. He wants them practical and snug and he likes women to show their legs. None of his skirts, except of course dinner and evening gowns, go be- low mid-calf. As for coats, they have drooping shoulders, very large armholes, and they are buttonless. They are in thick wooly material, in pale shades of yellow beige, or gray astrakan or shell-colored fox. Evening dresses arre more fanci- ful, with black spangles here and there, and heavy black silk embroi- dery on small velvet boleros. Bo- dices are close fitting with large square decoletes, an the skirt bil- lowing from a line halfway between the waistline and the hipline. Nova Scotia Aids Drama Development By JOE KING Canadian Press Staff Writer Halifax,--(CP) -- Nova Scotia is going all-out in its encouragement of development of dramatic talent the newlysformed drama tic library and advisory service di- Hsion of the department of educa- on, Director of dramatics for the de- partment is 4l-year-old Donald Wetmore of Truro, N. S., a veteran of the stage, whose job is to assist in the spread of dramatics and the development of talent. During the summer, Mr, Wetmore conducts classes in dramatics at Dalhousie University and during the winter he is engaged in a full program of theatrical activity backed by a large library in Halifax under the direction of Mrs. M. C. Vernon, H- brarian of the Halifax central lib rary. The library has more than 3,000 plays apart from a separate divi- sion for children and scores of books on every phase of the thea Are, from material that interests those behind the footlights to work- ing knowledge for the men behind the sets. The library is constantly being expanded and keeps tab on the latest releases from the New York and London stages. The dramatics director and M- brarian work hand-in-hand with theatrical groups throughout the province and ald in the formation of new groups. Plays for reading and production are loaned free-of- charge to amateur groups and Mr, Wetmore frequently tours the province aiding in the development of rural theatrical societies. The encouragement given the theatre in Nova Scotia has received such a wide response that J. L. Robertson, secretary of the provin- cial committee of the Dominion Festival, recently said that "never before in my experience has there been such a widespread in- terest in drama in the province." Wide heavy gold "cuff" brace lets are very much in demand now. Some of these are set with small watches in the centre, and some are stone set. SUPERIATHE SHAVING CREAM Special! 23¢ TAMBLYN 6 King E.
