Ferree Page 6 «* £=The Haileyburian Thursday, March 23, 1961 Across the kitchen Table BY MRS. MAC Sometimes, as I listen to the ra- dio or overhear the conversation of a couple of teen agers as they slipslop down the street in front of me, with their heels dragging, I wonder. if a new language has been invented. On the radio, some poor suffering soul whines inde- finitely "Whaddle_I do if yah leave me?" and another one, in equal agony, demands over and over, "Will yah love me _ to-marra?"' Some time ago I read in a maga- zine an article along these lines so I've been perking my ears to find out if they really do talk in this way; "Lo, Joe, whatcha doon?"' "Nuthin much, bumn 'round." 'Showt night?' "Nah. 'Seent." "Dance Sat night?" "Nah, no "Smatter 'thelsie?" ""'Smad 'tme."' 'Smad -bout?" "Idno, got- ter back up bout sumthin." "'Gon do then?" "Gessle stay -homen stu- dy.' "Mightswell. Nuthinelsta do'"' "Kay. Be- seen yah: "'Yah, -see News from the Lvelyn Shoppe We wouldn't be surprised to see some of our enterprising prospec- tors staking out some gold claims in Evelyn's window this week. Those shiny big gold nuggets sure look tempting but if you do some further exploration work, you will find real golden nuggets of fashion with high grade values. Evelyn has done some digging on her own, in the Fashion world, to come up with such fabulous values, such as a perfect gem of a suit in gold shade, skirt with the new deep pleats, short cropped jacket and an extra dividend in the two-toned silk overblouse to match the lin- ing of the suit. dame." A walking suit in the new spend- thrift green shade, shorter sleeve length, sheath skirt, has a three- quarter jacket which can be used as a top coat over any other frock, both practical and economi- cal. We like the price, too, only $35.00. The smart all-weather coat by Joshar in the gayest of flower prints with an extra dividend in the matching parasol, for only $29.95 would make anyone cheerful on any kind of a day. You will head the Faster Parade if you are wearing one of our woolen coats by Louis Manley. The interesting weave and soft texture of this imported wool fabric is beautiful in pale champagne shade. The coat has the new cape elbow- length sleeve treatment and collar- less neckline bound with a knitted band in deeper tone. Very out- standing, or perhaps a cashmere coat by Gordon might be your choice. A fine calf, Morocco, antelope or tapestry bag by Paragon Leather will enhance any ensemble. Don't forget we also have the smartest of bags in soft crushable mello- plastic from $2.98 to $5.98, in many of the new spring tones. We want to once again empha- size the importance of gloves this spring, particularly the four, six and eight button length, for the fashion conscious women. Of course, you can choose a match- ing scarf. Even the most discriminating male will nod his head with ap- proval when he sees your Easter ensemble topped with a hat from Evelyn's, flower trimmed or plain. Starting on Thursday, March 23, with every $5 purchase, you get a chance on our $25 Gift Certificate which will be drawn on Saturday, April 15. It sure paid to dig in "that thar" | window. See you at Evelyn's THE 4 SHOPPE yah." Little men from Mars? Could be, but let us hope the phase will soon pass and another one take its place. After all is this way of expressing themselves any worse that the ones that have pre- ceded it? And after all, if you're as fond of teenagers as I am, it's really a sort of challenge to be able to understand what they are talk- ing about. Set TR This week I received my copy of Easter "Ideals" which is, I-think, one of the nicest I have got since I started subscribing to it about five years ago. This magazine is outstanding in this day and age, in that it has absolutely no ad- vertising, and contains no shoddy reading. From front to back, it is filled with beautiful poetry, sto- ries and pictures, many .of them suitable for framing. The story .of the creation of the world, from the Bible, beautifully illustrated with paintings is a highlight of this is- sue, Haileybury lODE Plans "June Ball" The Haileybury Chapter 1.0.D.E. met at the home of Mrs. Roy Smith on Monday, March 13. After the regular business, plans for the "June Ball" were discussed. Mrs. Lorne Umphries, Ball Convener, reported on arrangements to date. It will be held on June 2nd at the Haileybury Curling Club, and will require the efforts of every' mem- ber to insure its success. The following members agreed to head committees: Mrs. M. Le- vigne, decorations; Mrs. F. Coop- er, tickets; Mrs. M. Dunn, refresh- ments; Mrs. G. Cassidy, publicity. Mrs. Dorothy Houston's Rhthym Four Orchestra has been engaged, and a buffet supper will be sery- ed at midnight. The question of what the Chap- ter should do for the High School was the subject of another discus- sion, and it was suggested that the Union Jack and a portrait of our Queen be purchased for the new High School building. Mrs. Levigne was asked to check with the Prin- cipal of Fatima High School as to whether or not there was a port- rait of our Queen there. The final decision will be made -at the April meeting, when prices will be avail- able and the 1961 budget drawn up. The next meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. C. Lowery and Mrs. G. Judson will give a talk on Mexico. Charles H. Liddicot Honorary pall-bearers at the fu- neral of Charles H. Liddicot whose death occurred suddenly last week were Mr. A. Philion of Sudbury, Mr. D.

Mig omg eck ad PO nt aa baal LaDy Oa | William B. Crombie}: Donations Rise In a recent release the report of the Hallowe'en program spon- sored for the United Nations Children's Fund showed that the amount collected by the Canadian children was $260,000. This sum represented the efforts of 300,000 children in communities from British Columbia to Newfoundland and as a result of this gift, thou- sands of youngsters will be given healthy bodies and a chance to lead normal lives. Since 1956, the amount collected has gone up from $42,000 to $200,000. Another phase of assistance where it is needed is the contribu- tion of the March of Dimes. In the districts of Cochrane and Temis- kaming, the contributions amount- ed to $14,908, an increase over last year of $3,502.
