Gordon were the mem- bérs of Prince Charlie Chapter, LO.D.B., who looked after the Fri- day tea for the mothers who bring their children td the Well Baby Clinic at the Welfare Station. That both the straight line silhou~ otte and the full skirt were noticed in the frocks worn at the opening of the Ontario Legislation, both styles béing worn by matrons and young girls. The full evening frock is more becoming to dancers, for it sways prettily and gives grace to 'the wearer, .

FACING THE MUSIC, I tried to get up as soon as mother left the room, but my ankle was so lame that I decided I would have to stay inside, most of the day at least. : Mary Aan brought me a cup of ooftee and a piece of toast and want- od to dommiserate and comfort me "So badly that I knew mother had jold our old servant my whole story. That was just like mother. She wouldn't let me have a doctor to look at my poor ankle for fear he would want to know how I had sprained it and so get the story which she told without any compunction to a ser vent. ) "Sure, Miss Julia dear, I'll just take your coat and dress and shoes down. stairs and tonight I'll bring 'em up and put 'em in your closet and no one will be the wiser." Although I was much provoked at mother, I had to smite as Mary Ann took my clothes down stairs. If she knew my stofy, Mrs. Adams mald, who is her pal, would know it before tomorrow morning, for ale though Mary Ann is the kindliest soul in the world and she loves mé perhaps more than anyone else on earth, yet because of that very love for me, she would hasten to gét her version of what she and mother both deemed a scandal, out before anyone from the other side told his. Because I kept my swollen ankle under the hot water faucet most of the day, I was in pretty good shape by dinner time and determined to go down for that meal. I had heard father come home at least one hour earlier than usual and I knew I was in for it, but knowing that I would have to face his wrath some time, I made up my mind to take my medicine and get it over with as quickly as possible. Besides, I was hungry, Father never looked at me. as I entered the dining room. His face was like a thunder clqud. I wouldn't allow myself, however, to pay any attention to him, I hobbled over to my chair and was sitting down when a remark from him made.me straigh- ten myself up so quickly that my ankle gave a sickening twinge. "I am sending to the papers right after dinner, Julia, the annotince- meht of your engagement and early marriage to Charles Becker!"
