Clarence F. Werry, was introduced and accepted the honors, and respansibilities, in a neat speech. A motion was carried to meet in the same place on the third Saturday, July 17, 1954. Farewells were made, linger- ingly, and a very grateful peo- pie wended their various ways home. The day had passed plea- santly, and without mishap; clouds had obscured the heat of the sun and yet held back the rain except for two or three sprinkles, until the last cars were Ieaving. Thus the temper- ature for the day had been com- fortable. Came Fromi Cornwall 0f the nine brothers and sis- ters who came to Canada from Cornwall, Eng., between 1833 and 1846, four were represented at this gathering: Ann, the eld- est sister, who married John Hockin, William, the fourth meemlker, who married Eliza- beth Honey; Peter, f ifth mem- ber, who married Eliza Ste- phens; and Elizabeth, seventh Dut t YOU LOOK" IS THE d NEW LOOK n We see where a famous Paris designer of women's clothes says that this Faîl it is the womar 9: who àhapes the suit.

The piece of pie that wes but yesterday on the Plate has ia some mysteriaus fashion been transfonmed into a bulge at the belt line. This year it is the "You LoOk.'"

Thaugh finally the reauit is aIl the samne, what have worm- an ta live for. strive for, if they are fat told they must have an hour-glass figure or a tulipsil- houette, a Grecian line or a Second Empire waist? These dictâtorial decrees, us- ually laid down by very thin and energetic male designers, are what keep women young, alert and ambitiçus. At least the stniving ta observe tbem does. Desperately they diet, imagining. themselves thin as a reed in a sheath skirt. The pro- per emaciated resuit is neyer achieved of course, except by movie stars and models.

Stijl, the striving was good for the soul, and now it is no longer ne- cessary. Of course, seriously, we doubt that this was what the famous designer had in mind when ha decreed the "You Look." If it means anything at ail (and it may be just a catch phrase, peo- ple expect them), it probably mearis that a woman should choose the shape of. stlit, long waisted, short waisted, full or fitted, which is becoming ta ber. This is the sort of cammon sense wise Women follow any- way, and we have a pleasing variation ta choose from nowa- days. To the laver, of patatoas, gravy and pie, the 'unpressed pleat and full skirt have been a boon whase worth can nat be reckoned. Unfortunately, bow- ever, the reckoning must came.
