Simmons, centre, Chairman of the Canadian Committee of The Scotch Whisky Association, sponsors of the event. The Canadian Champions from the Regina Civil-Service Club captured the Cup by defeating Scotland's Champions in last spring's inaugural five games series. Across the Hitchen Table By MRS. MAC Do you realize that after this issue of the Haileyburian, there _will only be five more before Christmas? It just doesn't seem possible but I guess what happen- ed with me was that I lost two months this summer and haven't made them up yet. Well even if I am a bit behind hand, I have price- less memories of those two months. And I have also eight of my Christ- mas gifts ready to wrap, that I brought home with me, too. I have plans made for my Christmas decorations, my hus- band has the forms made for the wreaths and Christmas trees we are to use outside and my Christ- mas cards are all ordered. I will have a goodly number of new "names on my Christmas card list Been eterna ae all News from the Lvelyn Shoppe Evelyn has justreturned from a buying trip and her selection of party dresses is amazingly beau- tiful. The colors range from pastels to jewel tones, the sizes are from regular and half size to the petite junior miss. The materials include lace, which, by the way, is very much in the fashion news this year, beautiful brocades and rich velvets as well as taffetas and crepes. Prices are attractive, too, from $16.95 up. One lovely dress of velvet is in a warm glowing shade of claret, Martinized, (which means it won't mark) with long, tight sleeves and a beautiful square neckline. As an extra dividend, there are two belts, a plain narrow one and the other, for more dressy occasions, is wid- er and sparkles with three rows of rhinestones. a Another in palest green brocade with sheath skirt, has tiny sleeves 'eand a smartly draped collar. Still j-a/nother in the new tone brocade in "shades of violet, is accented by a cummerbund of plain amethyst with soft bow. . As well as party dresses Evelyn has a good selection of lovely wools in all wanted shades and - sizes. - . Come in and see the new flower petal cocktail hats in all colors. Very, very new and smart, this year, of the friends I made while overseas. I have already received several cards, including one from Oslo, Norway one from Lancashire, England, and one from bonnie Scotland. T've got my Christmas cake baked, too, Gosh, who said I was behind in my preparations? I am not, I'm farther ahead than usual! Right now I am in the throes of re-doing my bedroom. I paint- ed the floor, then the woodwork looked dingy and dreary, So I did it. With the floor and the woodwork done the walls looked like the very mischief, so now I'm painting the walls! The floor and woodwork are pale grey, the walls pale pink and the ceiling is papered in a-small pink rose design on white. I'm go- ing to like it if I ever get it done! Wouldn't it be nice if we could have a safe and sane Christmas this year, with the real meaning brought back to it? If everyone iqust gave gifts that they could afford and pay for as they got them instead of having an aftermath of debts to pay in the new year? If people lost the idea that they must drink '"'because it's Christmas"? If, in short, we would take the time to be thankful for that mir- aculous happening in Bethlehem so many years ago and celebrate it reverently instead of commerc- ially? Women's Institute Plans Xmas Party Ten members and two visitors were present for the November meeting of the Haileybury Women's Institute, held in the Legion Hall. The president, Mrs. Sadler was in the chair. Plans were made to hold a on Dec. 10, with Mrs. R. Sauve as convener. The Institute will buy candy, apples and oranges and the parents will provide gifts.

Sauve were appointed as the entertainment 'conveners for it. The roll call, "name a tree and it's product'? proved interesting and brought some good replies. Following the business session Mrs. J. H.
