He Suicided, But Saved Return Fares One. of the strangest arimples of thrift on record is reported from a French village, where a seventy- six-vear-old peasant committed sui- cide. Everybody was puzzled at first because all the old peasant's married children had travelled to. the village the day before his sui- cide to attend a family reunion at his request. The mystery was solved when note. which had been found be- the peasant's body, was read at the inquest. It explained that he had expected to die naturally quite so he had decided to commit suicide while his children were at home together: "This will save the extra fares they would have had pay attend my funeral." a side soon to to ah t pop Bree) Sonne te Sr f i % xii Chet ¢ foppant"~ Whatever is Woppening of to the teft seems sparked startled stares from crooner Frank Sinatra and irl fiend, Ava Gardner.

Mdyo. a HRONTCI BS GINGER FARM by Gwendoline D Clarke Remember last week 1 promised to tell more about a wonderful in- vitation that had come my way--- entirely unexpected. Well, here is what it was . . . a phone call 'from the Women's Division at the C:N.I, inviting me to a press conference at Mrs. Kate Aitkin's home to meet Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt! Do vou wonder | was bowled over? Now L want to share that happy exper- ience with von---although 1 am still at a loss to understand_why 1 was amongst the fortunate: fifty to whom this priceless invitation was extended. Most of the P'ress visitors had ar- rived at Mrs. Aitken's home by 10:30. others arrival, the from and. our Soon after garden, awaiting the Malton, "of Mrs. Roosevelt hostess, Mrs. Aitken, cleven the word was passed around--"She is here!" Immediately there followed a quiet air of expectancy: a repressed feel- ing of excitement which prevailed until. we heard the announcement-- "Mrs. Roosevelt 1s ready to receive you." Quietly we room of Mrs. Mrs." Roosevelt friendly, smile, entered the hiving- Aitken's. lovely home. met us with a and welcoming I, at least, had a curious feeling that it was .not stranger I was meeting but a friend whom I had known but had not met for a long time. The air was charged with ty Sl of, feeling among No one spoke. Pre- sently Miss Aitken reminded that Mrs, Roosevelt was there to answer. any questions we cared to ask. Even then, for few pre- cious moments, no one asked any- thing at all. Tt was as if we were afraid of breaking a spell--each of us trying to absorh and interpret gracious a a some of the distinctive charm, cours, age and enthusiasm emanating from the woman before us, And believe nie, Mrs. Roosevelt is charming. I'rom her many press photographs you might imagine her -as some- what plain. That, too, is under- standable because no photographer in this world could possibly capture the qualities which contribute to the personality that is. Eleanor Roosevelt. She was dressed very simply, in a plain black dress, with bolero to match. A small, close-fitting, bright red hat rested comfortably on her iron-grey hair. Then cdme the questions--but only a few, as all tRe time we had for our conference was one brief half-hour. The conference was very informal, Most of us were stand- ing until Mrs. Roosevelt and Mrs, Aitken both suggested we might . be nrore comfortable sitting ar- ound on »the floor! Immediately some of the younger ones did just that. In answering questions Mrs, Roosevelt spoke at first in an casy conversational tone--until she came to the sessional tangles of the United Nations. Then she really hit her stride. Her voice was mag- netic, forceful--although still gen- tle in tone. Her amazing blue eyes Some where in the house, | us _ flashed, and her expressive hands lent emphasis to whatever point she was trying to get across at the moment, ne) question and answer. was par rly to my liking. Some- one asked how people' in small communities could further the work of the United Nations.: Mrs, Roose- velt replied--"The houséwife who feels her opportunities to work for Cigar-rr-r -- For seemingly ob- vious reasons, this hatted half- fox-terrier, half-bull dog is nam- ed "Smoke." The canine corona consumer is said to have devel- seven years ago. "Smoke," who has a collection of half a dozen briars he chews on--unlit, will now and then accept -- and mangle -- a good cigar peace arc, limited should use her influence to make 'her own com- munity better. It 'our first re- sponsibility to make our own com- munity the best possible place to 15 into the world." : Personally, I had not previously had too much faith. in what the United Nations is likely to accom- plish but as 1 listened to Mrs. Roosevelt I became more optomis- tic. If an aging and untiring wo- man has so much faith in the U.N. that she is ready to devote the rest of her life to further its cause, then surely we cannot go far wrong in following where she leads, each, in our own small way, working for And here is a little human touch that illustrates our democratic prin- ciples. As Mrs, Roosevelt and her party were leaving for the Ixhi- bition, members of the press were an the garden enjoying a cup of coffee. "My, but I wish I could catch a glimpse of her!" was the involuntary exclamation "of Mrs, Aitken's -maid who was looking after the refreshments. Tt was overheard by one of the guests--a > ueighbour of Mrs. Aitken's. "Why of 'course you must see her. Run along now and I'll look after the coffee!" At the Women's Lunclicon- Mrs. 400 guests, She must have been very tired but she did not show it. Her 'poise is something to envy. When speaking to the assembled guests she stood unflinching as every few minutes. cous ovation which. greeted her was tremendous, and, as a token to adian National Exhibition Mrs. Roosevelt was presented with a Maple Leaf pin and a corsage of blue and white flowers, A ripple of laughter spread am: ong the guests as Mrs, Aitken spotted ~ Gordon Sinclair during lunch. She immediately called him to the front to, meet. Mrs. Roose- velt. "And for this, Mr. Sinclair, of me as "the Pollyanna of the air- waves!" For once, Sinclair appar - oped a taste for pipes as a pup, : live so that its influence will spread ~ the peace and security of all nations." Roosevelt shook hands with over . photographers flashed in her. face Thé spontan- commemorate her visit to the Can-, don't you ever again dare to speak . satly had no eome-back. Never- theless, he made good use of hls opportunity by asking Mrs. Roose- velt to come on his programme for a few minutes--for which a hook-up 'had been hurriedly set up on the baleony, tin Before the guests dispersed, the Chief Chef, who has been respon- sible for balcony luncheons for years, came along, complete with "his chef's tall white hat and asked Mrs, on his nienu card. Aftér the luncheon hundreds of. people stood waiting in the Wom- en's Building for a glimpse' of Mrs. Roosevelf as she came down the. balcony stairs. As for the. Band Shell audience--the crowds extend- ed away. back to the Flower Show and far across the green, And everywhere there was that same hushed air of expectancy. After Mrs. Roosevelt's final ad- dress it was Mrs. Kate Aitken's privilege to extend the thanks of the directors of the CNE to their gracious and distinguished guest for. coming to visit them. Along with other fitting remarks Mrs. Ait- ken also said this: "We know Mrs. Roosevelt must be a remarkable woman because she had no trouble _at all in winning the approval of "Queen Mary. And, believe me, any- one 'who is approved by: the Queen Mothér MUST be all right!" 1 liked that . : . just a few words, even though lightly spoken, were yet sufficiently strong by implica- tion, to link together representa- tives of two great - democratic countries--the Old and the New . . . the British Empire and the -- United States of "America, And so ended a great day -- a day long to be remembered by those - who saw and heard Eleanor Roose- velt. We owe her a debt of grati- tude for visiting our Canadian Na- _tional Exhibition, and to the Board of Directors for inviting her, But I also think a good deal of credit should go to Mrs. Aitken for her share in bringing a:well-known and well-loved personality, sich as Mrs. Roosevelt, to a typically and re- ceptive Canadian audience. < . What People Grab As Souvenirs The souvenir business is booming __in_ the United States. Forty-five thousand people have applied to buy' bits and pieces of the White House, the President's home, which is now being restored. : Prices of the bits range from 2s cents to about $150.00-and if every application was graned there would be no White House left. Recently -one souvenir hunter who had a passion for collecting door knockers was arrested. In the basement of his house he had seven hundred and sixty door knockers in different shapes and size. They had been collected from = twenty-two different towns: "I've been helping mysclf to a little souvenir in the form of a' lanocker from every town I've visited," the man admitted in court, "They help me to remember what happened." Spoons are the -most 'popular trophies for the souvenir enthusiast. Trans-Atlantic liners lose an average of two hundred,spoons per trip, and often more bulky objects like cruets and vases are missed from the dining-rooms, The. Sultan" of Johore had to cease using his gold plate at State banquets because so many gold | spoons and other picces of cutlery were taken away by his guests. The breaking point was reached, however, when one of the souvenir- hunters made off with-a silver hair- brush with the Sultan's crest on it. I'he Sultan thereupon announced that unless the brush was returned he would have to stop inviting Europeans to his State banquets. Americans are said to be the leading exponents of the art 'of souvenir-hunting. Because of their genius _in this respect certain Parisian hotels cat- eri for tourists now refuse to lay "fish knives on the table. But they still lose a staggering quantity - of ashtrays, tumblers, 'towels, plates, and .other odds-and- ends. ; Souvenir=selling at seaside resorts is' no longer the profitable business it used to be. Not long ago there was a big demand for ashtrays, brooches, spoons, and cruets with such words as "A present from Mudville" embossed on them.* They can still be seen in the shops to-day, but few holiday-mak- ers buy them. "If they-buy anything," one shopkeeper-said, "it's usually "cloth- 'ing -- scarves, hats, pullovers, ties.
