Thero she has received most of her train- ing and practically all of her in- spiration and encouragement, In each of the three stages of her career, in portraiture, in landscape and in etching, the conspicuous successes that she has achieved have come to her, not as a Cana- dian, but as a French artist, Her paintings of St. Pol de Leon, bought by the French Government, her work a' the Musee du Luxem- bourg and th Petit Palais, even her tiny etching of the Pont Royal, that hangs oa the walls of the Queen's Doll House at South Ken- sington, all these are Frénch sub- jects, in different mediums, but all following the best traditions of French art. Her popularity in Frence may be explained fact that she loves her France, its peasant, its countryside, and its architecture, What is sometimes described as her Gothic feeling, or her sympath-tic treatment of French subjects,, she herself sim- ply calls her now-world passion for the treasures and the romance of the old. Though sho sketched with her husband in Italy, Holland and North Africa, and even on her an- nual trips to Canada, it was always her French studies that won the highest honors and commanded the largest commissions, Brampton, | by the Miss Gladys Bennett, daughter Rockceroft, Ont., and Mr. Clayton | their marriage at Toronto on Feb- | E.

They also re- sponded with an encore, Miss Jose- phine Thomas, organist and choir leader played a plano solo and de- lighted her audience with her usual charming manner. A number was contributed by a quartette con- sisting of Mrs, Michael, Mrs, Tur- ner, Mr, Evans and Mr, Patterson. Mrs. Michael also sang a solo. The audience was most reactive to the humour contained in the past num- ber on the program which was a skit, of about twenty minutes, It was entitled "A Business Meet- ing", but contrary to its name fit turned out to be nothing more than an afternoon spent in gossip- ing and petty arguments, The ten parts were taken by members of the Ladles' Ald Society wearing dresses that were in fashion about fifty years ago. Those In the skit were Mrs. A. V. Drew, Mrs. W. Vice, Mrs, H. Kelly, Miss I", Baker, Mrs. Geo, Webster, Miss V. Sam- ells, Mrs. W. T. Henry, Mrs. W. Bennett, Mrs, H, Goodwin and Mrs L. A.

Nilsson, formerly a film star in her own right, and now a hopelessly invalided cripple. The years of ex- ercising and dieting to maintain a svelte sylph-like figure affected the constitution of the lovely Swedish actress so much that her blood was vitiated, and when a fall from a horse resulted in a broken hip bone; the knitting process could not be induced. Recently, several sur- geons performed a delicate opera- tion on the injured member, insert- ing a wooden section into the injur- ed hip bone in an attempt to cor- rect the lameness which set in after the accidentf from which Miss Nils- son has been suffering for two years. Doctors in Hollywood hold the unfortunate actress's case up as an example to other dietors, warning them of the disaster they may be courting by foolhardy ab- stemousness, NEW TURBANS Turbans are a popular. form of headgear, They often match the suit in material. Hats are much like variations of baby bonnets, with shallow crowns, long back brims, and flattering long side lines. Ears as well as knees are now hidden, RIBBED JERSEY Stocking ribbed jersey is promiin- ent in suits. Prints are as good this year as last, but they are smaller and less garish. Light blue and bright rust are good spring colors. Sleeves are more important. The leg o'mut- ton sleeve and the bell sieeve are returning, RIBBON'HATS The ribbon beret is one of spring's most sprightly contributions to fash- ion. A brown one is made of two- inch grosgrain ribbon, hand fastened, in a square pattern that is very dis- tinctive. SPRING SCARFS The tie-scarf is: spring's favorite. If one is very young and pert, she ties it in a big bow under the chin | and increascs her charm, If one is older, it may be worn like an Ascot BABY COLORS | | | | | Soft pinks and soft blues arc very | good for spring.

At Lord Lytten's country house at Knebworth, Hert- fordshire, it was stated that it was understood that Lady Hermione's purpose in going to Switzerland was to ask her parents' consent to her marriage. It is believed that the man whom she wishes to marry is a friend whom she met in India when her father was Governor of Bengal, The young man. recently returned from India and the friendship was renew- ed, A brass band once visited a small village, and the people were delighted with it, but they couldn't make out the trombone, son they sent old Cyrus to investigate, Old Cyrus watched the perform- ance of the trombone player for some time. sneer, "Take no notice of him, fel- Thén, he sald, with a lers.

With all the food in the oven it needs little or no attention; with well insulated ovens--and this is particularly true of electric ones--it conserves fuel and keeps food odors from entering the kitchen, Where there is automatic temperature con- trol the meal may be left to itself for two or three hours as the case may be. For those who have both time and temperature control there is still greater freedom from the kit- chen, However, this type of cooking delicate flavored flavor should not may be accomplished readily in any |' type of oven, provided a thermometer is used to make sure that the pro- per temperature is being maintamed While no special recipes or equip- ment are needed for oven meals, foods should be chosen that can be for approximately the same length of time for one meal, though in some cases part of the foods may be add- ed later than others, but all will be the same time. Choose utensils which will fit into the oven together but will still allow a free circulation of air, and that have heat- proof knobs and handles, and tight- fitting covers. Glass baking dishes are ideal because they eliminate dish- washing by cooking and serving the food in the same container. This type of meal preparation is| splendid for waterless cooking of vegetables which has already been discussed in these pages, The am- ount of water used depends on the vegetable, as a rule one-quarter to one-half a cupful is sufficient This is enough to cover the bottom of the dish, and will cook the vegetables without burning if the cover is tight and the steam does not escape, If the space is not all used for the one meal, a dessert for the next meal or the next day may be added. If preferred, a cold dessert may be substituted and the extra space used for soup or a third vegetable. RECIPES SWISS CHARD A vegetable quite unappreciated generally by Americans is Swiss chard.
