Across the Kitchen Table BY MRS. MAC A great-many people do a great deal of talking about the stress and strain of modern life. The younger people just take it for granted that they must be on the go all the time and if they are not, the- majority of them can't enter- tain themselves. But. the .older ones, who remember the old days when- there was onky the Christ- mas concert, the 24th of May pic- nic and the 12th of July parade for News from the Srlyn Shoppe HAILEYBURY If you are one of those fashion- alert women, you will want at east one black dress in your ward- robe. After all the color we have been having, Fashion is now talk- ing Black to highlight lovely fig- ures and of course we all know how flattering it is to the slightly heavier figure. With all the large sparkling pins, gold chains and colorful beads to dress it up, anyone can wear black and Evelyn has a number of dressy and basic models, just in, wools, brocades, crepe, silk jersey and chiffons. The Chanel influence is shown in a black dress with low cut neckline bound in satin, with Chanel jacket also bound in satin. If you have some of: those gold bar pins, so much in 'vogue a few years ago, Chanel suggests using a set on the jacket or to loop up a long gold chain to one side. This is a-smart and differ- ent touch and you probably have a _set tucked away in your jewel box. A coat we like very much, in black, is. in cashmere and wool, the collar banded in silver blue mink, which is 'removable. An- other, deep red with an interest- ing flare, is highlighted with a smal roll color of black Persian Yamb, by Louis Manley. Mal-ber makes an antique gold shade coat of imported. angora and wool with luxurious beaver collar. We still have a few "Kilgornoch Supreme'"' coats, a rare blend of lambswool and kid mohair, loomed by Avers ef Scotland, exclusively for Gor- don. So if you are thinking of a winter coat, call in at Evelyn's, where you will find petite, half and regular sizes. From Italy, we have iavee bags of antique leather and whether you are gadding about town or around the world, these sturdy bags will stand up to hard wear. They come in black with gunmetal clasp, deep brown and oakleaf. We also have a good selection of polished calf bags that anyone would be proud to wear, and the soft mello plas- tics at $5.95, plain or with tapestry are outstanding in styling and value. A good stock of casual and dres- sy gloves always on hand. See you at Evelyn's. organized entertainment, are in- clined to belittle present day ac- tivities, even tho they are up -to their necks in them, themselves, and go on at great lengths about the superiority of those bygone "old days". But I just wonder how many of- us would want to go back to those days when we had only horses to take us places, when we had no electric lights, no freez- ers, electric stoves or irons? One thing sure, I don't. Last night af- ter I got home from work, I de- cided to go to Englehart to see my daughter. I left home at seven o'clock and was back at ten to eleven: If I'd had a horse and tbuggy, I would have had to take my lunich, and I wouldn't be home yet! If I hadn't had my electric stove, I'd have the fuss and bother of moving the wood "stove out to the "summer kitchen" in the spring and back again in the fall. I remember how my husband hat- ed 'moving it and thow I, (nasty creature), used to put an extra stick of dry wood in just before the dinner was ready so the house would be extra hot when he came in. It usually worked though -- if not. the first day, it would the second. And I remember the in- onvenience of ironing with those old '"'sad irons", (they were aptly named) getting black smudges on the white shirts and nearly roast- ing in the summer time with the huge fires needed to keep them hot. Yes, the good old days were fine -- I had lots of fun in them, but I worked a mighty sight hard- er then than I do now, with all the stress and strain. And to me, the good old days are the ones I'm living in, and I hope 'they'll continue-to be, all my life. And here's something else to think 'about. There's no need of us get- ting involved in so many 'things lif we-have gumption enough to say "'NO":Say it in a nice way, but say it, because so often, the people. who want us to do things just want to get out of doing 'it themselves. (Hah, who am I> to talk?) But do let us slow down to a walk instead of a gallop, and enjoy life as it comes, not wait till it's nearly over and then yakety- yak about the good old days. You know, I'm afraid I'm very much like the grasshopper who did nothing all summer and then com- plained when' fall came along. There has. been a good many even- ings when, if I'd had any get up and go, I might have worked in my garden, but instead I'm feel- ing rather badly to think it's rain- ing and will likely turn cold, and I have so much to do!
