Prices were exorbitant: Eggs cost $7 a dozen in summer and $2 |in winter, a sack of sugar was $50â€" so "we gave up eating sugar," said IMrs. Maclean. Butter was 50¢ in 'summer and $1 a pound in winter. ’Potatoes were $7 for a 100â€"pound 'sack, and even onions 50¢ a pound. Dr. R. D.

When the thimbles arrived, the women were glad enough to wear them, awkward though they felt, beâ€" cause they pricked their fingers on the print on which they were unâ€" used to sew. Mrs. Maclean interested the Inâ€" dian women in sewing. She wrote to her friends down East asking for calico, print, scissors, needles and "the biggest thimbles you can buy." "Why the biggest? Because the woâ€" men did all the work, putting up tents and taking them down, cutting wood, and so forth, and their hands were as wide as men‘s.

FOR WINTER United States tourists spent $120,. 000,000 in Canada last year, or 36 per cent. of the total United States tour. ist expenditures. Canadian tourists spent $47,000,000 Here, a 34 per cent. increase over 1933. The figures for United States tourâ€" ist expenditures included $10,000,000 for 429,000 citizens residing perman. ently abroad and deriving income from this nation. Of that number, however, 247,000 living in Canada were said to derive their principal source of income from farming in the Dominion. Amos E. Taylor, official who preâ€" pared the report, attributed an $11,â€" 000,000 foreign tourist increase to a 22 per cent. jump in the nuniber of Canadian motor cars entering the United States, and a 23 per cent. in crease in the number of aliens adâ€" mitted ‘"for business, pleasure and transit." But while there was a $10,000,000 drop in the outlay overseas, tourists spent $19,000,000 more in Canada, and $13,000,000 more in Mexico than dur. ing the last year of prohibition.

"Isn‘t it beautiful!" she cried. "Oh, mother, I wish we could have a garden like that." Flowers grew so thick there was no room or so much as a stick among them. Purple, pink and blue, red, yellow and white blossoms bankâ€" ed around a small pool maae one‘s optic nerves whirl, and the child clapped her hands wth delight. A lit.le girl was taken to see garden.

Like speech or gesture, writing serves as a means for the expression of thought, and in expressing our thoughts we give expression to ourâ€" selves, When once the art of writing is learned we are no longer conscious of the mental and manual effort reâ€" quired to form the letters themâ€" selves. It becomes, as it were, seeâ€" ond nature to us. $90,000,000 to be Each one of us has modified the copybook style in accordance with his individual character. Each one has unconsciously adopted a style of writing that is best suited to his tastes and inclinations., and has consequently given to it a distinctâ€" ive character. Now if handwriting bore no reâ€" lationship to personality and was not influenced by the character of the individual, we would all be writâ€" ting the beautiful Spencerian copâ€" perâ€"plate we were taught at school. But as it is, not one in fifty thousâ€" and writes in this manner five years after leaving school! _ This shows us very convincingly that there must be some sort of conâ€" nection between the style of handâ€" writing and the personality of the writer, Another familiar evidence of this is the fact that no two persons write exactly alike, notwithstanding that hundreds of thousands of us learned to write from the same copybook and were taught to form our letters in precisely the same way. When we receive a letter from a friend it is not necessary to open it in order to know from whom it comes. A glance at the writing on the envelope is usually sufficient. The style tells us at once who the writer is. We recognise the writer by his penmanship as readily as we would by his voice. Many letters recetnly have enquirâ€" ed for some additional facts about Graphology and why it reveals character from handwriting.

It has clearly demonâ€" strated that one‘s nature and disâ€" position may be accurately gauged by one‘s handwriting. Of course, the style of handwritâ€" ‘ng does not in every case remain the same throughout the life of a man or woman. A man at fifty may not write the same hand that he did when he was 18 or 20, and if he lives to be 80 or 90 it will, in all probability, show further indicatâ€" ions of change. This fact merely emphasizes the relationship between handwriting and personality; for it will always be found that where there is a change of style in a perâ€" son‘s writing there is also a corâ€" responding change in the person himself. After all, there are few oU us who retain the same character, disposition and nature that we had( in youth. Experience and vicissitudâ€" es do much to modify our temperaâ€" ments, and with such modifications come alterations in our handwriting. In some people the change in very slight, while in others it is very noticeable. It is plain, therefore, that a perâ€" son‘s handwriting is really a part of himself. It is an expression of his personality and is as characteristic of him as the way he walks or the tone of his voice. * QUEER WORLD After the war she became manager for Chanel, the famous Paris dressâ€" maker, and has taken Chane! c0o} lections all over the world. â€" Sh« started a sports department, which built up Chanel‘s workrooms â€"{rom 200 hands to 2,400. »pends eight hours a day in an ofâ€" fice.
