JO"S JOURNAL BY JO ALDWINCKLE Women's Editor of The Times With the closing of the Evelyn Shop on Simcoe street south, 47 years of business in the same line of high quality children's and ladies' wear has come to an end. The premises are now being remodelled and will re-open as a shoe shop. According to Mr. F. T. Lamble who operated the busi- ness for-3i-years, the as originally a private bank, which aécounts for the steel re-enforced and cement-floor vault at the back recess of the shop. Mr. Lamble and his wife, the iate Mrs. Minnie Lamble, opened their first ladies' wear shop at 914 Simcoe street south. Mrs. Lamble had learned the business at North- ways in Orillia and Mr. Lamble, by profession an analyti- cal chemist, was prepared to back her in the venture believing as he still does, that a sound business could be built on: quality and personal service. site--w. South of their shop was Barnhart's candy and. ice-cream parlor and north was the Bakogeorge restaurant and a "Picture Show' run by: Mr. Russell Bailes. In due time the private bank closed its doors and the premises became Luke's Undertaking Parlors which in 1924 moved to King Street east, its present location. The premises were then the property of the late Mr. Conant whose offices were on the second floor, He re- modelled the ground floor and Mr. and Mrs. Lamble took over. Decorative Window Dressing Those who remember the store will recall the artistic window displays. This was Mr. Lamble's own endeavor. He applied his artistic talent by creating seasonal settings, such as a garden fence or an archway with climbing flowers, to display his merchandize. "t always felt,' he said, "that $50 spent on the windows was worth $300 of any other kind of advertising and if you can introduce your own original effect, so much the better. Today, merchants contract for their window dress- ing and you see the same. set-up everywhere. Some of it is very stylish, but there is little individuality. "We always stocked the best quality merchanidze and much of it was exclusive. We specialized in Swiss em- broidered christening gowns, both long and short styles, and Swiss pillow cases for babies. These were specially imported as were many of the girls' dresses. "For three to six year sizes, the prices ranged from $1.98: $2.98 to the top $3.98. Today these dresses sell for around $15. Real lamb's wool bunny bags were also one of our best lines. Now quilted nylon; filled with synthetic fibre has replaced these onetime luxuries. "We had a well-patronized corsetry department. My wife gave personal attention to the fittings and our assis- tants were trained and qualified. The top price for a foundation garment was $15. Hosiery, in those days was not as complicated as it is today. We stocked a range of sizes in quality lisle in two colors only, black and brown and e pure silk line at $2.50. Rayon stockings were some- thing new in the 1930's and came in a variety of fawn shades." Catering to customers' requirements was the continuing success of the Lamble_ establishment. "Also," Mr. Lamble added, "people lived within their means in those days. We operated a strictly cash busi- ness and when we retired, there were no outstanding accounts." the key to Pleasure in Painting Mr. Lamble enjoys landscape painting in oils as a hobby and a selection of his work is hanging in the rotunda of the Oshawa Golf Club. In spring and fall for the past 25 years, he has been heading north into the rock and bush country, armed with his artist's. brushes and paints. His boon companion and long-time friend and adviser was the late George Thompson OSA of Owen Sound In 1950 Mr. Lamble sold his business to Mrs, Perrault and her partner, Mrs, Helen Staples, both of whom had learned "the trade' under Mr. J. C. Ward, Until last month when the 'Selling Out" signs went up, they operated a profitable business under the same prac- tice as their predecessor, quality with service. The. face of Oshawa is changing and not many "family" businesses remain around King and Simcoe streets. Those with the longest history include Burns' Shoe Store, Jury and Lovell, Henderson's, Karn's, Canning's, Kinloch's, Rotish Men's Wear, Ward's Dry Goods, Bassett's, Say- well's, Dancey Brothers, Flintoff Hardware, Lewington's, Johnston's Men's Wear, Mitchell's Drug Store (the late Mr. T. B. Mitchell was a mayor of Oshawa), -Mike's Place, The Central Hotel and the Globe and Grand Cafes, Evelyn and the Mark's Theatre, all linked with Oshawa's past.

The three-quarter sleeves have detachable white cuffs. The At a recent press conference, Andre Mercier, Expo's deputy director in charge of Visitors Services, said that although the Canadian Corporation for the 1967 World Exhibition required only 225 hostesses, many more would be sought through Expo. |Mr.. Mercier said about 1,500 |hostesses would be needed on the *Expo site by various ex- hibitors and about 700 or 800 would be hired in Canada. Expo would provide names from the applications it receives, to in- terested exhibitors. Some na- tional pavilions will bring host- lesses from their own countires. | Expo would also give the jnames of girls who are not Can- adians to the country concerned if that country is participating in the exhibition. | "By announcing our cam- paign early, we are giving pros- |pective applicants the tunity to learn or brush up on other languages," Mr. Mercier said.

Organized Closet Go Hand In Hand By ELEANOR ROSS _| A well - organized closet. is basic to a well-groomed ward- robe. a If you've been thinking about doing over, your closet, start by rearranging it with an eye to- ward beauty, function, avail- ability of the contents -- and above all, cleanliness. No mat- ter how handsome the decor, a closet must be spotless. Remove all contents and scrub the closet interior with plenty of suds. Refinish the in- side with either washable paint trasts with your room, or with washable wallpaper. Then cover the closet floor and shelves with adhesive-back washable plastic, Now you're ready to hang garment bags in sizes and shapes to. fit your wardrobe items--shorter bags for suits and blouses, extra long for house coats and formal clothes, and average length for dresses and coats. Hang all clothes facing in one direction, with those used daily nearest at hand. EASY TO CLEAN Plastic or quilted chintz ac- cessories are ideal, for they can be gone over with a well- lathered cloth to keep them clean and looking fresh. Those made of fabric can be dered after removing metal frames and cardboard brac- ings. This also applies to shelf trim, shoe bags: and laundry ags Store clean, folded sweaters in plastic envelopes or boxes, and arrange shoes in a special hanger that goes on the cross- bar or on. the inside of the closet door. If there is room, invest in-a hanging storage bag with ad- justable shelves made to hold hats, handbags and small ac- cessories, Select hangers to complement your garment bags and hat boxes. Those made of plastic or chintz can be sponged with thick suds, then wiped with a} damp rinse cloth, Transparent | boxes reveal their contents in a flash, so keep them clean by frequent washing.
