The answer is NO. To strengthen will power, an appetite curber would have to help you change your mind wanting to overeat. No pill, depressant, diet aid or curber can do that. A cartoon, showing an overweight indulging in a ban- while waiting for the Iruggist to fill her prescription |for an appetite depressant, sums |it up. Think of will power as will- lingness.

"Many Soins must be remem- bered in the choice and fitting of such gowns," Miss Delanghe said in an interview. Colors and styles must always be less noticeable than those worn by the Queen. It|q lis also im rtant that all outfits look as well behind as they do in front and for such a long tour they must be almost uncrushable. SIMPLE EVENING GOWN All these points were kept in mind when Miss Delanghe de- signed a simple, flowing floral print organza evening gown with apple-gree background. It has camisole neckline and even the posies of matching flowers splayed | across the skirt from waist to hem | are crease-resistant. Each petal is | made from the dress material and | hand-stitched so that even if the | flowers are crushed they still look | well, | Lady Egerton picked more than one strapless gown from Miss De- langhe's fashion collection -- but added. These range from narrow cording to two-inch widths. ! Her brightest ball gown is a flame red chantilly lace semi-crin- | oline with simple, clinging lines and wide hem. An intriguing point is the deep fringe of match- ing suede velvet that fringes and weights the skirt two-thirds of the way round. The centre back skirt is all lace. making a perfect train. | Lady Egerton has also packed three of her Coronation gowns, in- | cluding a shaded purple crinoline | made from 75 yards of fine ruched nylon tulle studded with brilliants. Most of her gowns, however, are on Royal Tour state balls should be informal. Dinner jacket' and evening suit will not be: essential on most oc- casions and for royal garden par- tles the rule is "wear what you please." Lady Egerton finds, however, that formality in her dress is best. She has packed only one cotton style, Most of her gowns are in the light-weight French and Swiss materials favored by the Belgian- born couturier. An embroidered Swiss lawn in black and white has been chosen for a cocktail dress with Eton acket. A rich brown embroidered awn with appliqued seams and shoulder-wide "V'* neckline makes a garden party number, elegant in contrast to the pastel shades the ueen favors for such occasions. Lady Egerton has chosen much navy including a pure wool coat dress with long sleeves, slim lines and skirt fullness swinging from all-round inverted pleats that start ow on the hip. Two or three w outfits have been included. vl HEAT THROUGH GLASS Glass, still pioneering, is now an important item in the heating field. Teamed with electricity it has pro- duced the latest type of heating to be introduced into Canada. It's a panel of tough tempered glass with an aluminv'm grid fused to the back through which electicity passes and is converted into infra red heat rays which heat objects they strike rather than air through which they pass. ~ Dry Cleaning News!
