Handicrafts Lure Tourists 2 Ami Eh it 1 Should Be Offered to Them Rather Than For Export, Trade and Commerce Survey Finds ------ | Canada's handicraft industry should be made: a tourist attrac- tion - depending upon increased sales of artisan work to tourists in preference to production for export, . says an exhaustive survey of the , education handicraft industry made for the Department of Trade and Com. merce by G. R. Heasman, VALUE TO INDIVIDUAL HOMES Problems and difficulties facing the industry in Easlern Canada are summed up as .leadership-- and instruction in the work; production--raw material and quality; marketing. "There has been a failure in the past to realize the economic value ot handicrafts, a tendency to con- sider them a pastime for women's clubs or individual hob¥ies and not enough thought given to their value to the many homes through. out the Dominion or their value ns a tourist attrattion," My. Heas- man reported.

HAVE - YOU HEARD? \ During a lull in the conversa- tion at a dinner-party the hostess was unfortunate enough to emit a lcud, rasping hiccup. A French- man, sitting -by her, immediately apologized profusely, as if he had committed the faux pas. When "the ladies had left the dining- room, an American asked the Frenchman why he had acted in this manner. "As mousicur knows, we are a chivalrous people," was the" re- ply. "1 saw that madame was em- barrassed, sa 1 tried to throw the blame on myself." I Presently the men Joined the ladies upstairs, After a little "while the American found him- self in conversation with his hostess in the middle of a group of guests, Suddenly the alarming incident was repeated -- the hostess hie- cuped again. The American turned quickly to the assembled guests, and an- nounced with an engaging smile, "I'olks, this one iz on me!" - "I'm sorry, madam," said the attendant at the movie, "but you can't take that dog into the theatre." "How absurd," protested the woman, "What harm can pictures do a little dog like "this?" Pat had bought a 'watch guar- anteed for twelve months, At the end of nine months, how- cver, he reappeared at the shop and complained that the watch had stopped six 'months earlier when it had fallen into the pigs' trough, i "But why didn't you bring it back at once?" inquired the jew- eller. ' : "How could 1?" replied Pat. "We only killed the pig yester- day.) . . LJ "Gwen said if any man kissed her without warning she would scream for her father." "What did you do?" z "l warned her." An "Albanian was imprisoned by the Italians. He annoyed his captors intensely beause he kept saying: "Anyway, the Greeks gave you a bashing at IKoritza," One day the officer in charge" of the prison camp took him aside and said: "Look here, if you'll shut your mouth I'll make you an officer in the Italian army." "0.K." said the Albanian, Next day Mussolini visited - them, shook hands with the Al- banian, and remarked: "So you are now an officer in the great Italian army?"

It was suggested that the home owner go to a reputable nursery- man and select a tree of a hardy; long-lived variety 'which will add permanent value to the property. The 'owner should avoid one that will grow so rapidly as to be seriously injured by the first wind or ice storm, or one whose rocts will come to the surface and injure lawns or will clog sewer lines, Some hardy trees ave naturally low-branched or cast dense shade and if used, should be placed where they will - not interfere with lawns, driveways and walks.
