PAGE SIX / THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1948 Rumours of Royal Persist in Court and Society Romance Accounts of social events and of i to and from the city Tondon, Sept. 27--(AP)--Match- makers are sure the rosy-cheeked Marquess of Blandford is going to marry Princess Margaret. He, in turn, is a little dazed and embar- rassed by his sudden role of suitor in a rumored Royal romance. While a few months ago a subal- tern no more distinguished than other fledglings with historic titles and a lot of money, he now is one of the main subjects of table talk in Britain. His family, his back- ground, his prospects and what might be the significance of an alliance of the house of Marlbor- ough with the House of Windsor, are highlights of current chit-chat. Outwardly this 22-year-old cousin of Winston Churchill resembles a juvenile actor dressed up for a military part. Chubby-faced, some- what petulant in expression, he is eager, bright-eyed, rather self-con- scious and naive. But despite his boyishness "Son- ny" Blandford has fluttered the hearts of not a few of London so- clety's 'teen-agers and that fringe of love-smitten bobby sovers who cast goon looks at Prince Philip, Sir Laurence Olivier, crooner Tony Martin and the not-so-young mati- nee idol Ivor Novello. ' Handsome, six feet tall and fair of hair and complexion, the Mar- quess first hit the news pages earlier this year. His name then was linked with that of pretty, flaxen-haired Sharman Douglas, daughter of the United States Am- bassador and Mrs. Lewis Douglas. He. escorted her to the theatre and to fashionable West End restaur- ants, and was always a welcome visitor at the ambassadorial resi- dence, Folks say he's a great deal.like his father, the 50-year-old Duke of Marlborough, whose, imposing title he'll inherit one day. The 10th duke--John Albert Edward William Spencer-Churchill is his full name --is known to his friends as Bert. People who know him call him a real sport, a regular fellow. Britons are still talking over newspaper accounts of a party the duke gave a couple of months ago for his son, only recently back from military duty in the Middle East, and for Princess Margaret. There in Blenheim Palace, re- puted the largest private home in England, the duke entertained his guests by throwing raspberries high in the air and catching them in his mouth. "He rarely misses," commented his admiring duchess, who then confided: "He often entertains our guests in this fashion. He is most amusing." At the same shindig--which was partly a belated birthday party for the Marquess of Blandford, who had turned 22 in April--the duke tried his talents as swing crooner bend which had been engaged for the occasion. It is of responsible record that Princess Margaret enjoyed all this as much as did the 129 other guests. The episode points up the sportive side -- and the dominant side, in some good opinion--of the younger princess. The young marquess has been described at Buckingham Palace as a close friend of the Royal family. This intimacy, in fact, has been cited as one of the chief reasons for discounting the rumors of ro- mance, The argument: "Why shouldn't the Marquess of Bland- ford be invited to the Royal homes? Why should it be assumed the mar- quess--or anybody else -- is there on oval?" It's still admitted, though, that the marquess is tops, in Princess Margaret's affections.

Other gifts received 'nziuded a silver tray, casserole a gravy boat. From her daughter Valerie, Mrs. Murray received a set of Russian squirrel furs.

The toast to the bride of 25 years ago was proposed by Mr. William George Myatt, the bride's brother, from Australia, and re- sponded to by the bridegroom. Mr. Nelson Kelly of Toronto, a brother- in-law, proposed a toast to the sil- ver anniversary bride and bride- groom, which was responded to by Mr. John Murray, father of the bridegroom. For entertainment Mr. Nelson Kelly, ventriloquist, from Toronto, gave several skits. Mr. Gilbert Clark, also from Toronto, con- tributed several songs, accompanied at the piano by his wife. Inter- spersed throughout the program were solos by the silver wedding bride, accompanied by her hus- band. Mr, Myatt, who is visiting rela- tives in Canada, and who arrived in Oshawa recently from Brisbane, Australia, gave an inteasely inter- esting talk on some of his experi- ences in Australia where he has re- sided for 38 years. He aiso mention- ed that he enjoyed the free and easy manner of the Canadian way of living. Dancing and a sing-song of sold favourites rounded out a very happy evening. Before leaving everyone signed the silver wedding book, which was included among the gifts. Quarrels Bring Family Unity % So you've quarreled with your band! Probably about now our world looks pretty black, but take cheer, A disagreement be- tween 'a husband a wife is a healthy sign of progress. That is the view point of a famous mar- riage counselor who says conflict is the raw material out of which some of the finest things in mar- riage and family are forged. As a matter of fact Dr. David R. Mace writes _in this month's Woman's Home mpanion, that families ought to disagree. He gives three is a vital part of the process of mutual ful safety valve for bottled-up emo- tions. And third--now this is a brand new idea in family relations --an occasional family, quarrel is good for the 'children. Dr. Mace points out that young people must be prepared for life by being brought up in an atmosphere of reality. That means children must learn how to handle a disagree- ment positively and constructively. It means knowing when to insist on one's own way and when to give in graciously. So the next time you and your husband quarrel take heed of Dr. Mace's advice. A peace- ful home is one where quarrels have been turned to such good ad- vantage that there isn't anything are appreciated by the 8 Department.

More unescorted women are travelling than ever before, says Carol Lane, a travel bureau direc- tor who has just returned from the west. She adds: "Motor travel presents no spe- cial problems for women travelling unescorted by men. Women won't find any trouble unless they're looking "for it." Here and there, hazards still ex- ist but a few simple rules, Miss Lane says, will keep the woman traveller on the road of propriety. Miss Lane covers thousands of miles a year on auto trips for an oil company, investigating all kinds of travel problems. For example, she warns that if you want to avoid the wrong kind of tourist cabins, don't pick a camp where: 1. Most of the cars bear licence plates from the same state in which the cabins 'are located (un- less the state is very large). 2. The proprietor doesn't require you to register or give you a chance to inspect your lodgings first. . 3. There.is a bar in front. 'Wear Detachable Skirt "Above all, a lady traveller must act and dress like a lady," says Miss Lane. "A good strategy, for example, is a playsuit with a de- tachable skirt. While driving, the skirt can be neatly folded across the seat. It can be whisked easily around the hips when coming into a filling station or restaurant." About Miss Lane herself. She is a comely young brunette, She recently completed a two-month, 11,000-mile auto trip through the Rockies and southwest United States, visiting 13 parks, picking up helpful hints on what to see, where to eat, how to picnic on the road, what to carry along for comfort. When she's not travelling, she's writing reports and when she's not writing reports, she's lecturing on travel to women's clubs. On vaca- tions, she travels, too. This year her plans for a trip to France had to be cancelled, so she may have to. settle for & car ride up and down the eastern seaboard. While on the road, Miss Lane is always equipped with - various " tourist guides to help her decide on a restaurant. If these sources fail in a strange town, she invar- iably seeks out a drug store. "Pharmacists are usually open late," she says, "They know their town and they're considerate." Other bits of intelligence picked up on the road by Miss Lane in- clude: teachers are the best travel- lers because they have the most time and "they're most curious about things;" with picnics now and then, you can eat for about $3 a day on the road; if your car breaks down on a lonely road and you can't fix it yourself, it's best to wait for a long-haul truck driv- er cbecause he can "usually . fix everything." '|it meant to each and every girl. ) | Groups i, Cuba tuxiliani + NORTHMINSTER C.G.LT.

STORIE --Photo by Hornsby Studio A Savory Medley Of Egg Plant and Rice Whether a produecin, arden is right outside your roi fs not, the markets reflect that vegetable gar- dens are producing their heads off right now. It's that lapping over time when table variety is easily obtained. Eggplant, tomatoes, green pepper, with a few other items from the kitchen shelves make a wonderful mixture and when given backbone by incorporating these named ingredients with rice--ah, then it's a husky dish that makes the meal! * bb To Prepare White Fluffy Rice Put one cup rice, one teaspoon salt and two cups of cold water in a two-quart saucepan and cover with a tight-fitting lid. Set over a hot flame until it boils vigorously. Then reduce the heat as low as possible and simmer for 14 min- utes more, during which time the water will be absorbed, making the rice deliciously tender, Remove the lid, permit the rice to steam dry to the desired consistency and the grains will be separate and fluffy. Never stir rice, but lift rice gently with a fork when testing its con- sistency. * + @ Eggplant Medley One eggplant; two or three ripe tomatoes, depending on size of both tomatoes and eggplant; one and one-half cups cooked rice; one-half green pepper, chopped; two table- Spoons butter or margarine; two tablespoons minced onion; one-half oup cheese, grated; salt; pepper, to taste; dry bread crumbs; butter or margarine for dotting. Peel and cut up eggplant into finger-size pieces. Keep submerged under cold, salted water until ready to cook. Cook eggplant pulp in boil- ing salted water (to cover) to which has been added a teaspoon of vine- gar. Boil gently until tender. Drain. In a skillet, melt buter or margar- ine and add chopped onion and green pepper. Cook rather slowly until onion and green pepper are slightly sauteed. Add to these two the peeled and coarsely cut up to- matoes, Stir to cook slightly. Mix tomato mixture with drained, semi- mashed, cooked eggplant, rice and cheese. Season with salt and pep- per, Put in a greased baking dish that can go to the table. Top with crumbs and dot with butter or mar- garine, Place casserole in a 350. de- gree oven until all flavors are well blended, the whole dish is hot and the top a golden brown.
