Sey wih oner SEW AND SAVE WEEK Spring Sewing with Buttons, Bows Introduced by Sew and Save Week Though fashions change with the seasons and are altered to "keep in step with modern living, sew- ing fundamentals remain the same. Warm, sunny days urge fashion- wise women to start their spriug sewing right away. This year February 28th - March 7th has been set aside as National Sew and Save Week across Canada. During this week merchants are united in a co-ordinated effort to assist the home sewer in every way possible | - to sel€ct her sewing needs. . With slimmer, softly tailored dresses more popular than ever, accessories are extremely impor- tant in giving your costume that onz-of-a-kind individual look. You can make many changes in your * basic costume by having several sets of accessories to dress it up or down. Buttons are a latest fash- fon for trimming and are an in- expensive way to give your gar- ment a difierent look. Rows of but- 'tons can oe used for trimming, and by experimenting a little, you'll notice that a row of buttons placed vertically on your dress will give height while buttons placed horizontically will give width. Dia- gonal rows are used to shorten and broaden the appearance of a dress. Your buttons can be metal, | bone or plastic, plain or fancy ac-' 'cording to the effect you desire. | Self-Covered buttons are always a popular trimming, and hom sewers will be glad to know that easy 'to use self cover button forms are now available for mak- 'on an all-one-color costume. ing professional looking buttons right in your own home. Coronation year trimmings can be carried out successfully by us- ing buttons. You can trim a dress or suit with military buttons in plain gold, silver or perhaps a fancier pattern in the Coronation theme. Little buttons in patriotic red, white and blue can be combin- ed to work out an effective design They make a smart and inexpensive trimming for handbags and hats | as well. For dressy trims you'll find a gorgeous array of buttons made from brilliant stones, glass and little floral designs in a" wide range of colors. Buttons are linked with bows for feminine charm and once again ribbons are' high in the fashion story for dress trimmings. Perky little bows can be tacked on lapels, pockets, belts or grouped together on a pretty hat. Large bows, on the other hand, are smart when worn at the neckline of a suit or dress, also at one side of your skirt in a fetching manner. Crisp taffeta, moire, satin and velvet are the popular choice for trimmings Whole collar and cuff sets as well as belts can be made from plain, checked or striped ribbon. Use gay satin ribbon in Coronation colors on dresses, suits and handbags. Ribbon streamers: worn with Cor- opation emblems add chic, up-to- date trims which offer other in- expensive changes for your basic costume.

Of English and Irish stock. Mr. and Mrs, Wilson were married in Millbrook, Feb- ruary 28, 1893, : --Photo by W. A. Forsythe. Ot Pioneer Stock, Perrytown Pair Celebrate Diamond Anniversary Relatives from Oshawa were among the 200 guests who called to extend congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Robert Reid Wilson of Perrytown who celebrated their diamond wedding anniversary on Saturday. Of English and Irish stock the remarkable couple who have been living in retirement in Perrytown, near Port Hope, since 1938, are both in good health and riled in Millbrook, 1892. Robert Reid Wilson was born on October 27, 1862, on a farm ap- proximately 1152 miles west of Perrytown which had been ' pur- chased by his grandfather, John Wilson in 1841. His father, Joseph Wilson, was then the owner of the Generaska Mill which stocd on the property, John Wilson and his wife and son, Joseph, were original set- February 28, and stationed nearby, they have had five week-end dates. | Nancy has been in and out of | love before but claims it is ser- ious--the real thing--this time. We | try to reason with her that it) isn't true love, considering the' casual attitude towards her, but she is deaf to our appeals. It is upsetting the family and breaking her parents' hearts. | We believe she is going through with the wedding in spite of the | family. a marriage made on that basis work out favorably? | How can we save her? We are looking forward to your answer. | Dear S. A.: Sometimes the best | way to pull the rug from under | headlong obstinate youth, hellbent on an ill-advised course, is simply to relax one's opposition to the disputed endeayor. In place of active anxious resis- tance, such as the family is agi- tating towards Nancy's purpose, it might be more effective to mani- fest passive but sincere disappro- val. For example, an honest but openhanded attitude to the effect that "I think you are mistaken and I don't like it, but after all, it is your life, if you insist, and you'll have to live it--" may jolt a brash adolescent into sober sec- ond thought. It is 'the detached, disinterested adult appraisal that does it--the non-interfering: but plain spoken viewpoint. Having stated your position, don't harp on it. Rather, be am- iably neutral towards Eugene, or towards Nancy's plans, insofar as you can. Of course, if your temp- erament clashes with his spontan- eously during any attemtps at social exchange, there's probably no value in trying to hide your true colors. In that case, better quarantine the difficulty, candidly, by admitting ruefully .that you don't get on--without assigning blame to either party. KNOW YOUNG MAN But if possible, try to know the young man, Try to give him oppor- tunity to become freely acquainted with the whole family, because this way you enable Nancy to see to many. According to your story, their romance has been pretty sketchy thus far, pegged on a handful of dates, which isn't much of a basis for proving the potentials of- mutual respect and congeniality--essential ingredients of a good marriage. If Eugene really is wrong for Nancy, she should be helped to it now, as can be done only if she associates with him at leisure, and not defensively, in familiar surroundings, amongst loyal kin of sterling character. If you adopt this more relaxed policy and she marries him any- way, at least your conscience may ; be clear--in the sense that you won't have precipitated the move Warring against it aggressively.

He gave piping lessons to the Duke of Windsor when he wa Prince of Wales. . e. The unsolved problem seems to be to create in the child at school an attitude and wish to be a good citizen in other places. ' WIDESPREAD PHILOSOPHY According to one philosophy, which widely prevails among the leaders of our public education, character and citizenship are ex- ercised well only in the immediate situation. Nevertheless, a few teachers who have won the abiding esteem of their children, not only continue to vractice their children in good cit- izenship at school, but try to cause these children to want to go on practicing the same qualities of good character and citizenship out- side of school. They often talk with these children about doing right no matter where they may HOME "TRAINING Though a good many intelligent parents tend also to accept the philosophy that you can't teach character with words, a few par- ents who have fine relations with their children at home do talk with these children about doing right when no one may .easily see or restrain them when they do wrong away from home.
