The large finished sheet is attached to the plain glass window panes. At night, the windows are lighted and can be seen for several blocks . . . Many church members have longed for richly colored stained glass windows in their churches-- a DREAM which could not be carried out because of the high cost of these windows. This young public school pupil has shown that beautiful. windows can be enjoyed at the expense of a few sheets of paper, a little creative talent and a group of enthusias- tic youngsters. Here surely, is a way that our Sunday School young people can help beautify the church, by doing something with their minds, their hands and their hearts, if only the older ones would lead them . . Much of the lethargy on the part of young people in our churches today, springs from the fact they are not encouraged to contribute their talent in a PRACTICAL way to the church itself. If children have a stake in something concrete, they will have a stake in something spirit- ual. THERE'S A HARD WAY and an easy way of doing most every- thing. To keep the silver tea ser- vice and the flatware sparkling, here's the EASY recipe. Take an aluminum kettle and to each quart of water use one tablespoon of common washing soda and one teaspoon of salt. the water to near boiling point--but don't hoil. Dip the silver pieces into this mixture in ithe aluminum Kettle, rinse them in lukewarm water and polish with a dry flannel cloth. A GROUP of children for noth- ing better to do and at the sug- gestion of the UNDERTAKER'S son, decided to play funeral. But The stained glass window effect . . SISTERS ALL , By Jean Love Galloway. Oakville WE DROPPED IN on a Home and School night when our attention was attracted by two beautiful stained glass windows in the upper hall of a public school. The teacher told us that the designs for the windows were Grade pupil with the Grade Seven pupils carrying out the complete meeting the other created by a Seventh One window depicts St. Matthew XXVIII-2: "The Angel of the came and rolled back the stone." 'The other window is an interpretation of St. Mark XVI-19: "So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, He was received up in Heaven and sat on the right hand of God." . At that, the undertakers child tore up to a neighbor's door- step where he knew an elderly grandfather was seriously ill. "Is Mr. Moffatt dead yet?" he ask- ed the man's daughter who came to the door. "Us kids are playing: funeral and we need Mr. Mof- fatt." ONE of the neighbors has ants. No, they're not in her pantry. They're in the fireplace, of all she warned against too much pat- tern in small rooms and indis- criminate use of the richer shades in larger ones, but when it comes to the games-room, she said, "let your imagination run riot" She and practically indestructable and of glass curtains that she had seen recently in Florida of a cob- webby filminiess that were dur- able fire-proof and required no 'washing.

Choose Furniture Well, Decorator Advises Club The March meeting of the Uni- versity Women's Club was held at the home of Mrs. Andrew Scott. The guest speaker Miss Vida Peene was introduced by Mrs. W. P. Jebb, a life-long friend. Miss Peene is a graduate in modern languages and House- hold Economics of the University of Toronto, as well as a gradu- ate in Interior Decorating from the Ontario College of Art. Speaking on Interior Decorat- ing in the Home, Miss Peene told her audience that though four principles should be observed, namely correct colour, form, line and texture, the decorating of one's home should be a means of for safety by the Department received generous support and co-operation of the press, the radio, the schools, the police, many service clubs, safety organizations, the operators and drivers of commercial vehicles and many thousands of citizens, the toll of tragedy reached an all-time high. HERE IS THE 1949 RECORD Motor vehicles registered in Ontario 969,368 Tourist vehicles recorded 4,500,000 Persons killed 830 Persons injured 17,469 Property damage $9,531,659 THE PICTURE IN 1950 In 1950 there will be in operation on Ontario highways one million motor vehicles owned by Ontario residents. There will be more tourist vehicles in the Province than ever before. Traffic will be much heavier, and more chaaces of accidents will exist. Estimated motor vehicles in 1950, 1,050,000 Estimated drivers licenses in 1950, 1,350,000 Estimated tourist vehicles in 1950, 5,900,000 Unless the Ontario public takes this problem of highway safety seriously to heart and everyone sets out to cut down this mounting scale of accidents, it is possible that in 1950 the death toll may reach a new shocking figure, with the number of persons injured keeping pace. With these facts in view, it behooves every man and woman, young and old, to make it a personal objective to establish and maintain safety, and to preach it at all times to schools, families, drivers and acquaintances.
