* THEe MIXINCG BOWL New Frocks From Old Hello Homemakers! As inspiraâ€" tion and guidance to new ways of «onserving, the Wartime Prices and *Trade Board have now installed the wellâ€"known Mrs. Kate Aitken as National Susorv'uor of Conservaâ€" tion for the Consumer Branch, The war on waste and needless spending Wwill have a new meaning to homeâ€" makers. s At a recent display of new frocks from old ones, we gleaned many practical ideas.

Here‘s one more way in which youngsters can show their loyalty to the cause for which their fathers and big brothers are fighting. And let‘s be sure that we set them a good example by using the telephone only for necessary calls .. . and by keeping them brief. War calls must come first.

If the sewing machine gets dirty or sticky as a result of using poor oil, or from long idleness, oil thoroughly.. with kerosene (coal oil) at all points indicated. Then run machine for a short time, wipe dry and oil carefully with sewing maâ€" chine oil. 2. Turn the dise wheel so that the needle is down before you begin to oil; put only 2 drops in at a time. 8. When winding the bobbin, loosen the dise wheel by turnâ€" ing it counterâ€"clockwise. 4. Although your machine is threaded, do not attempt to sew until you have revolved __ the dise wheel around so that the needle goes down and comes back up and you can pull the end of the thread to bring up the bobbin thread, too. ‘ atâ€"theâ€"sleeve sweater and inâ€" 1 um-{nt.h short sleeves and \ back into a dress that may ‘ have faded in the back. 5. When your trim shirtmaker 1 dress has been stained or frayâ€" ed at the armholes, make a smart jumper out of it. .A blouse may be fashioned from man‘s shirt, ripped apart and reâ€"made to eliminate the frayed collar, etc. § 6. We saw a | very glamorous , longâ€"sleeved blouse which had been cut out of aâ€"striped evenâ€" ing dress. With or without stripes, you can just imagine the "swishness" or crispness of those materials which have not had hard usage. T. If a dress is too long or the collar is out of fashion, shorten the dress, make corded bows, a new belt and a hat band; take the collar off entirely and face it or bind it. 8. A black or dark colored dress may be livened up by panelling the front with a piece of flowâ€" ered material. 9. If you have an old ensemble suit still wearable, the mateâ€" rial should be washed or dryâ€" cleaned. Reâ€"make as a twoâ€" piece suit to go marketing in. 10. An old skirt, plain or gored, can be cut excellently into a small boy‘s shirt; shorts may be cut from the wornâ€"atâ€"theâ€" elbows jacket.

The Germans also have razed many houses and a number of pubâ€" lic institutions in The Hague and elsewhere in the defence zones and have transported the materials to Germany for reconstruction of bombed areas. Among the buildâ€" ings thus razed was the famous Red Cross hospital in the new secâ€" tion of The Hague and a number of schools and churches. The Germans ordered the evacâ€" uees to leave these buildings inâ€" tact, containing all fixtures, curâ€" tains, carpets, stoves, lamps, bathâ€" tubs, etc. Immediately after the evacuces leave, German lorries arâ€" rive, load up these fixtures and carry the loot to the Reich.

EÂ¥XE SPECIALIST OFFICE HOURS: TIMES AND GUIDE Incidentally, he was subsequentâ€" ly founder of that well known Canadian newspaper, the Victoria Colonist.â€"Brockville Recorder and Times. Shortly before the 12 sailors were "taken into custody at New York by Federal officers, a numâ€" ber of men from the French battleâ€" ship Richelieu, now in New York undergoing repairs, and . other French warships appeared in Haliâ€" fax and were sent to Britain to fight with the Fighting French forces. The men were quoted as saying they deserted the ships, under the control of Gen. Henri Giraud, commissioner in French North Africa, because their offiâ€" cers were "too collaborationist." This man was born plain Wilâ€" liam Alexander Smith in Windsor, N.S., in 1825, and, going to Caliâ€" fornia at the time of the gold rush to that state, discovered that letters intended for him were being received and opened by a namsake. This infuriated him to such an extent that he successfully applied to the California Legisâ€" lature in 1858 for a change of his name to that strange hodgeâ€"podge "Amor de Cosmos", which he conâ€" sidered to mean "Lover of the Universe" and it was as such that he was thereafter known. FRENCH SAILORS The New York Herald Tribune says in a newspaper story that Francis Biddle, Attorney General of the United States, has dropped the case against 12 French sailors held in custody since March 9 for deserting French warships in United States ports. ‘This newspaper adds: "This action makes it possible for them to leave for Canada to join the Fighting French forces of Gen. Charles de Gaulle." "Look here, Mrs. Murphy, why have you been hitting my little Bobby ?" "I only hit him because he was rude and called me a fat old pig." "But _ good gracious, Mrs. Murphy, you ought to know better than that. Hitting my son won‘t do you any good; you‘ll have to start dieting!" COLORFUL HISTORY The extraordinary career of the man who became the Hon. Amor de Cosmos has been recently reâ€" called in British Columbia, of which province he became Premier before serving in the House of Commons in Ottawa. Beginners are advised by the Dominion Department of Agriculâ€" ture to be on special guard against these common pests which threaten our war gardens says Gordon Smith of the Canadian Garden Service. Garden Pests Cutworms are probably the most generally destructive insects found in the vegetable garden. They are of greatest concern when the plants are small. They are gray to brownish caterpillars, which hide in the soil during the day and emerge at night to feed on a wide variety of plants. They usually sever the stems at the soil surface, although some species attack the leaves. Cutworms can be killed by sprinkling poisonedâ€"bran bait about the garden in the late evening. The cabbage maggot will probâ€" ably be the next insect to appear. This attacks the roots of such plants as cabbages, cauliflowers and radishes. It is a small, white, legless insect that makes its apâ€" pearance about the middle of May. When the attack is severe many of the plants wilt and die. Transâ€" plants and seedlings can be proâ€" tected by pouring corrosive subliâ€" mate solution around the stems shortly after transplanting. A near relative to this insectâ€" the onion maggotâ€"is a frequent visitor. It closely resembles the cabbage maggot and works in much the same way. But it only attacks onions, feeding at the base of the stems and causing the young plants to wilt. Covering the onion seed with dry pnwde?ed calomel before planting will considerably reduce the amount of injury. A small, yellow and black striped beetle, known as the atriped cuâ€" cumber beetle, will be an unwelâ€" come visitor in most gardens about the time cucumber plants are getting started. Tt feeds on young cucumber, squash and melon plants, eating hOiE_‘!.in the leaves. Tt hides in the foliage and frequently escapes detection. Infested plants should be dusted with calcium arsenate and gypsum, mixed one part of the poison to 19 parts of the powder. _ _ In Eastern Canada, young carrots €.

This maggot is first noted in early June, making rustyâ€"red tunnels in the roots. Injured seedlings wilt and die. By delaying planting until early June, most of.the carrot rust flies will have disappeared before the young seedlings come up. The commonest enemy of the potato is the potato bug or Colorâ€" ado bettle. It is an annual visitor frequently to be seen on the surâ€" face of the ground even before the potatoes have broken through the soil. Spraying or dusting the vines with an arsenical such as calcium arsenate or lead arsenate fortunâ€" ately will kill most of the beetles, as well as the young grubs on the leaves. Weed Control In the flower and vegetable garden cultivation is the best method of controlling weeds. After first digging the garden it is well to let it rest for a few days to encourage weed seeds to sprout, then one thorough cultivation will dispose of an enormous number of these enemies. But it will not kill all hecause some seed will lie around for weeks before germinmtâ€" ing. Experts advise regular cultiâ€" vations at weekly or tenâ€"day interâ€" vals, to cope with them. So long as the weeds are not permitted to go to seed, cutting them off with a sharp cultivator and allowing them to rot or be buried where they fall is the best plan. If, howâ€" ever, some reach the stage where they have flowered and are setting seed before the cultivation starts, t,hen'they -nhnuld be cut or pulled only son of Cuba‘s consulâ€"general, probably tops the list.
