Be le pa----_-- ak * THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, "ARCH 26, 1931 Just A "Bachelor Girl" Says Ishbel MacDonald of Herself London, March Shi talibey Mac- Donald's assertion that she doesn't Intend to enter parliament has stirred more interest than ever in the future career ot tho official hostess of No,. 10 Downing Street, who was 28 years old recently, More and more her interests centre in social welfare and home tasks. She indicated sho had no plans for marriage when she de- fended recently the right of young women like herself to be called "bachelor girls," and chafed at people who 'don't seem to realize that a girl, just because she is a alice girl and has common sense, lan't going to become the wife of just any one." And she say¥, "I'm neither poli- tielal nor business woman." Slfe de- eliged to become parliamentary canditate for the constituency em- bracing Lossiomouth,' where she has a vote, Eldest of Premier Ramsay Mace fdonald's three daughters and her father's hostess, tho shy, capable, rogy-choeked and blue-eyed Ishbel, with her tumble of rebellious brown hair, is a popular figure in Dritain and in America, No flapper, she is often deserib- ed as a typical English girl, though her rebust womanhood is more Scottish than English, She isc a capable, often witty public speaker, Introducing Gooree Bernard Shaw at a great Loudon meeting, she said she had read his guide to-soclalism for women * and Tam still a Socialist." Sho isc an apt golfer, musician and dancer, and she has a bent for scientitic study, which she honestly prefers to housework, But in all branches of housewifery a thorough competence is hers. At the Lossiemouth cottage where in the summer she and her sisters, Joan and Sheila, have some. times done all the housework she makes the scones for tea on her own Scottish "girdle." The welfare interests of her long dead mother, rather than political concerns of her father, engage Ish. bel's talent, Soon after she was 21 she became secretary of the Volun- tary Care Committeo to sick child ren on East London, Later she was & member ol the London County Council and enlarged her activities in public health work, finding in loeal government more opportunity for service, especially to children, When political tides sent the daughter of Britain's first labor premier to Downing Street as of- ficlal hostess one of London's grand dumes, a stranger, wrote to sug vest clothes and deportment at court. "1 have chosen 'my frocks," re. plied Ishbel, "and I think 1 shall know how to behave at court," Queen Mary passed the judgment: "A perfectly charming girl.

"I give him Shredded Wheat and it's so crisp he has to chew it-- the more he chews it the better he likes it and the more nutriment he gets out of it. Many children bolt down their food without chewing -- that means imperfect diges« tion, poor teeth and une healthy gums.

THE CANARIA JREDDED WHEA » LTD, At SHREDDED WHEAT WITH ALL THE BRAN OF THE WHOLE WHEAT | MANY USES FOUND FOR SEALSKINS Can Become Lea'her, Oil or Resplendent Fur Ruff St. John's, Nfid.--TIn the good old days a Newfoundland geal had three possible destinies, Ho could re- main seal, becomo seal oll, or be- come seal leather, Now he has four choices; seal, oil, leather, and fur, - Although the geal's private inclination may be to remain seal, after seeing the wonderful fur pure chased by the Queen at the British Industries Fair you will feel he is a little selfish, This new and important use for pelts is the result of a new process by which, after the inch-thick layer of fat underneath the hale is ro- moved, the gkin is split. It is this splitting which makes it possible to use the skins for fur, On March 8 or 9 every year, about twelve big ships with a crew of about 250 men each set forth for the Seal Patches. The seal's "Twelfth of August" is March 13, up to which date they may preen their own fur 'coats in safety. This date is chosen because the sealer wants the first white coat of hair before the seal begins to shed, which he does aut the age of about two months, growing a darker coat, with marks on it which, by some stretch of imagination, may be described as harp-like, They are then called harp seals, The fleet is usually back by the middle ot April with about 200,000 pelts, averaging about 66 pelts per man. These are first subjected to a process by wheh the thek layer of fat is taken off by skinning ma- chines and rendered into oil, which may ultmately be consumed as mar garine! The, pelts are then sent to Eng- land, formerly to be tanned into Would Abandon Canberra Capital of Australia Canberra,--Abandonment of Can berra, Australia's federal capital dream city, which cost $66,000,000 fs being urged by many leaders in public lite and business men, Described by some politicians as "the nation's syiubol of unity," and by others as 'a running ulcer of finance," it would be returned to the sheep which ones grazed on its broad acres i a widespread move- | It is isolated and fts maintenance is costly.

INDIES S¥OULD BE MUCH CLOSER Sir Robert Falconer in Inter- | view Favors Closer Trade Relations Port-of-Spain, Trinidad, B.W.I.-- Sir Robert Falconer, President of the University of Toronto, during a visit here recently was interview- ed by The Trinidad Guardian on the question of commercial union between Canada and the Dritish West Indies and also on the ques. tion of the West Indies having thelr own University and School of Medi- eine where disease s peculiar to the Tropics could be studied. Sir Robert said there was consid- | orable talk in the Dominion about | the yearning for closer commercial intercourse with the West Indies, and he thought this was a good thing but how far it would involve political modifications was another question, "I have heard the gues tion of West Indian I"ederation dis- cussed in Canada, also in the West Indies," Sir Robert sald: "The question is the more difficult of so- lution becauge the West Indies are divided up with Jamalea away off from the other islande. That, 1 suppose, will always be a difficulty in the way of the federation of these Colonies." The Guardian quotes Sir Robert Falconer as follows: "I think that our people in Canada should endea- vor to bring about a closer commer cial association with the West In- dies. We produce what you want, and you produce what we want. have often spoken publicly in Cane ada about this. Our people are now realizing how much they can get from the West Indies, and how much the West Indies can get from them." Sir Robert referred to the fine steamers plying between the Doe minfon and the West Indies and suid this was going to assist large- ly in developing the relations be- tween the two countries. fpeaking of the question of a University and School of Medicine Sir Robert Filconer, according to The Guardiary visualized a West Indian University as an expensive proposition, more so in view of the industrial depression in which all the Caribbean Colonles are sharing, The Guardian says Sir Robert Yale coner dreams of a day, tot in the distant future, when West Indian students pursuing thelr medical stu. dies will no longer be elbowed In the packed American and Canadian Universities, They will pursue pre. liminary scientific work in medicine at the Queen's Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of London, Sir 'Robert Falconer left Trini. dad for Barbados, B.W.L Aerial Mapping in ( 'anada During the year 1930, 54,100 square miles wero photographed by the Royal Canadian Aly Force in connection with the mapping of Canada by the Topographical Sur- vey, Department of the Interior.
