Sometimes I wish my name began with K, L or M so that I could snuggle cosily in the middle of the alphabet and not head every list, crusade, circular and appeal that comes around. This week it's the government, appealing for my my income tax. I notice that my code name is '"Aldwi'. How do you like that? If they want to get chummy they might have made it '"Winki" or something fancy. En- closed is a cheerful little folder, printed at great expense in yellow, blue, green and red, with black and white illustra- tions and an invitation, "If you need help, call any district office..." and adding a list of telephone numbers from Newfoundland to the Yukon Territory. Doesn't say anything about reversing the charges, but I've never called anyone in Whitehorse. I wonder... On the front cover, a polite little man lifting his fedora high in the air appears to be saying 'Please do not lose your "PR". I'm not sure what this means but I have a feeling it's too late now, anyway. Have you noticed the greater number of new, blue licence plates on the automobiles? Soon instead of spotting the new ones we shall be picking out the oldies. I still can't Proof MISS IRENE PAWSON, ~ understand why we have to change licence plates. of having paid the licence? Well, what proof is there that you have paid your income tax? The law soon catches up with you if you fail to pay it, without any outward sign. This came to mind after receiving a neat, numbered key tag from the War Amputations of Canada, The tags are made by members of the association who have lost a limb or complete eyesight in the fighting services. If you lose keys with this tag attached, the finder can drop them in the mailbox. They go to the War Amps who return them to the owner at no cost. Last year alone they returned 12,123 sets of lost keys to their owners and since the start of the service have re- turned 100,480 sets. Wonderful protection for 60 cents and 80 little to send a hero. Eager-Beaver Stamp Collectors Last week the Post Office issued some new stamps and friends, doing a slow broil under the Florida sun, asked me to get them some. Imagine my surprise, when, enquiring through the iron bars in the PO, I was told that they were "sold out". Oh, they had plenty of the old models, but that wasn't what I wanted and I came away thinking about the crowd of avid collectors that must have lined up waiting for the doors to open, like bargain hunters at a fire sale. We have had some worthwhile entertainment in town in the past few days. I wasn't able to hear the Tucson Boys' Choir but I know them by reputation and Kingsway College is to be highly commended for undertaking the expense of bringing the group to Oshawa. "The Winslow Boy' at O'Neill Collegiate was an excel- ent interpretation of Terence Rattigan's real life drama by the OCVI Drama Club. Directed by Ernest Winter, the students had captured the attitudes and styles of the pre- World War I era and developed the characters concerned in well-rounded performances. Ann Stiles depicted Catherine Winslow as a girl of some mettle, probably the forerunner of the flapper, and her brother, "Dickie", played by Mac Swackhammer, carried off the carefree undergrad to the letter. Marshall Crotin, Mr. Arthur Winslow, who spent his health and his fortune in proving his son's innocence, gave a creditable performance of this long-enduring gentleman and was movingly supported by Dorothy Vipond as Grace, his wife. Douglas Yonson acquitted himself well as young Ron- nie, the centre of the storm, and Geoffrey Woods complete with embonpoint pictured for us the kindly family solicitor. It was a good team effort with every member of the east projecting well. There's valuable material here for Oshawa Little Theatre in the seasons ahead. Scrambles In Check Rooms Parents and teachers were justifiably proud. Some parents are not so happy, however. I have heard a number of tales and sad ones, too, of lost boots. It seems that wherever there are gathering of children and young people, dances and swimming parties, the check rooms are insufficiently staffed. The mix-up comes with the snow boots. Bitter tears have been shed at the loss of velvet and rubber boots, in some cases Christmas gifts. This mix-up and loss could not happen if adults were in charge all the time these dances and classes were in ses- sion and there's one more point. Surely mothers would know if a child came home with boots that were not his or hers. Would they not realize how the other mother or child felt and take some action to right the wrong? Example is the best teacher and here is a way in which parents can show their children the right and honest thing to do. The large audience in McLaughlin Collegiate last Sat- urday night obviously enjoyed the Sweet Adelines' Harvest of Harmony. Doesn't it show how we all love to escape from politics and sordid serials and all that psycho stuff once in a while to some easy harmony and gentle senti- ment? The Oshawa Symphony Orchestra provided a pleasant musical evening on Tuesday and I hope the Port Hope Male Chorus that shared the program, got home safely. That was the might of the freezing rain and I tip my best hat to our Oshawe bus drivers who completed their runs; got us all home from @i points without a slide or a scrape, With traffic out of control and snarled on every route the bus drivers bore a sickening Tesponsibility with calm cour- age. Nature note: The lake lost its blueness this week and took on a cold Atlantic grey and the beautiful white crust 'around the park has been hammered into grimy, jagged fangs but if you look at the trees from a distance they form a light brown haze, that is not the black of winter. 'Working In A Hat' Becomes A Symbol Of Success To Some By ROBERTA ROESCH When I was a very little girl, one of my major ambitions was to get into some field where I could work in a hat--since women who wore hats on the job were my big symbols of success. I've long since got over that) and I often go without my hats. But I thought of this aim with a chuckle only a few weeks ago when I interviewed Ursula Meyerheine, a youthful career girl from Hanover. Germany. WITHOUT THE HAT Blonde and attractive Ursula --who was interviewed sans chapeau--currently has a job as foreign press representative for the coming Hanover Fair, an international trade show to be held in Germany in April, 1965. When I talked to her in New York, she was visiting this coun- about. American exhibits and to find out from American busi- nessmen what they most want in trade expositions, such as the Hanover Fair. "How did you get such an interesting job?" I asked her. "Very hard work was neces- sary," Ursula said. "But luck is an international factor, so there was some of that, too." Immediately after college, Ursula went to work, she said, as an apprentice on a news- paper in her hometown of Han- over. 'Later, she worked as a jour- nalist and wrote articles for German publications. Then luck came her way when, purely by chance, she met a top official of the Hanover Fair who was familiar with her past work. As a result, he offered her the opportunity to work for the ex- position. try to learn what she could Naturally, Ursula jumped at , left, and Miss Gwen Paw- A labor of love that took over a year to complete has brought a comforting sense of achieve- ment and stimulated an interest in fine needlework for the Misses Irene and Gwen Paw- son, Connaught street. The altar cloths and hangings that they have embroidered were dedi- cated recently in Christ Mem- orial Church. "The idea came to us when Mr. and Mrs. Charles Weather- head expressed the desire to contribute a new superfrontal and hangings in memory of de- ceased members of the church choir,' Miss Irene Pawson ex- plained. "'My sister and I had seen this kind of work, done by women, at a Diocesan meeting and when the request came it gave us the incentive to try." The fabric is pure white silk damask with a Tudor rose de- sign on which the Misses Paw- son embroidered their design in silk thread. '"'We had to give much more than the usual at- tnetion to our hands,' Miss Gwen Pawson, laughingly in- tervened. "The silk thread clung to our fingers and the slightest roughness would snarl it; also we were anxious not to leave the shadow of a blemish on the white silk material. We often wore cotton gloves." BASTED TO LINEN The preparation was very important. First fine linen was stretched on a frame then the silk was basted to the linen. The embroidery technique was applied. "It was like painting with a needle,' said Miss Irene, "shading to give form and depth and then outlining and couch- ing in gold and deeper tones to give the pattern life when seen from a distance, as it will be to the congregation." The design embodies the sym- bols used for the celebration of Holy Communion, the. Bread and Wine. The centre of interest Sisters Do Exquisite Embroidery For Beautification Of Altar son hold the embroidered -- superfrontal and the hang- it are vine leaves. grapes and ears of wheat. This kind of needlework re- quired a new learning and the sisters were grateful to Mrs. May Ricciardelli of Scarborough who is skilled in ecclesiastical embroidery, for her generous help. She demonstrated the set- ting up of the frame and the technique of working: with silk and gold thread. "'Much can be learned from reading, but it must also be shown too,"' Miss Irene Pawson added. The Misses Pawson also visited a Toronto convent where they were shown embroidery worked by the nuns. BY MORNING LIGHT The sisters admitted that the task called for patience,me- ticulous exactness, good eye- sight and determination. 'We worked outside in the summer in the early morning hours when the light was at its best and our eyes were fresh. We found it best to work for short periods of time. This is an art form and no artist is ever really satisfied with his results but we feel we have gained cour- age and experience from the undertaking. "A project like this awakens and increases interest when travelling to observe how things were done in the past. The de- sire to know more is a spur and learning never stops. Miss Pawson also ventured the thought that increased auto- mation would promote educa- tion for leisure. Handicrafts, she said, could fill the great need for creative expression and it was gratifying to make things of beauty for the church or home.
