Mowrer, said in an interview here last night that the only hope for France is in revolt and such a course would follow if Germans oc- cupied the remainder of the coun- try. "At the time France went to pleces the people were uninformed If the officers hadn't broken, the men would never have given up as they did. It has been said that the Communists lost the war for France. There was a mere hand- ful of them actually. "Daladier lecked up the Com- munists, but not the Fascists. There were members of the government itself in touch with the enemy. Of course there was a great deal of pacifism in France and there was a reluctance to fight on the part of many. But not in our wildest dreams could we have believed that France would capitulate the way she did--though we did see the military defeat coming." Mrs. Mowrer is in Toronto to deliver a lecture, CAST PREPARES TO GIVE COMEDY Interest has been aroused regard- ing the forthcoming production of comedy "Don't darken my door," which is being presented at Thorn- ton's Corners in ald of the Sunday School.

RULE FOR CHARM Plain walls contrasted with pat- terned draperies make a pleasing room, Or if the walls are papered with a large patterned design, use a plain fabric for the curtains -- one enhances the beauty of the other. For instance, a living rcom with "slipcovers and curtains of a splashing bouquet - glazed chintz, might have walls and textured rugs of two shades of soft blue picked up from the chintz, and gold accents on mirror and incidental accessories, ENGLISH SCOUT CYCLISTS Sixteen English Boy Scout cye- lists were personally thanked by the Mayor of a north-east coast town for valuable work when Ger- man air bombs put the local tele- phone system out of commission.

The Woman's Christian Temper- ance Union held their November meeting on Tuesday afternoon in the form of a "fee day". A goodly number were present to enjoy the afternoon presided over by the pre- sident, Miss Marion Burns. The worship service was in charge of Mrs. J. V. McNeely who took her text from Judges 16, and spoke on the most mysterious word in the Bible, "Why". So many times we wonder why such things have come upon us. She gave several illustra- tions from the Bible where people questioned why certain things had happened and showed that God is ruling over all, and if we knew the why and the wherefore we would be as wise as God. Mrs. H. C. Hurlbert delighted the ladies with a solo "What Jesus Means to Me", sung to the tune of "There'll always be an England." She then led in the general singing of this beautiful hymn. An interesting and concise report of the main items of importance from the Provincial W.C.T.U. Con- vention held in Trinity United Church, Toronto, from Oct. 1-4, was presented by the President and kindly received.

Repeatedly in this column I have urged parents to read daily to the child from his early second year long past the time he enters school. I can think of no finer contribution to the child's pre-school and later education. It is excellent for read- ing readiness. How fine it is if it culminates in reading to one an- other in the family, even when the children are practically grown, Yes, I know that reading experts occasionally find a poor reader in the third or fourth grade whose par- ents still read to him. Indeed, I have heard from a few of such par- ents through this column, Some years ago I studied and worked with some such cases following them through several months until they were able to make rapid reading gains. But I did not, as do most reading experts, advise the parents to quit reading to this poor reader, Continue to read aloud to him but pause occasionally to show him the word or phrase he hears you say. In the midst of a new brief story he likes find occasion to quit reading, suddenly, and don't resume too soon. Impatient, he might choose to dig it out alone. As further help to the poor reader-- "Have him dictate stories of his own to you to type and read to him. Comics which are really funny and not fearful are also good for teaching reading at home. Urge to Read "About the greatest possible urge to learn to read is the wish to be able to read to a younger child, especially to a baby brother or sis- ter; therefore, about the best way to help a poor reader is to induce him to read to a baby or very young child. Naturally then he will choose to read easy materials, the very kind this poor reader ought to practice on. Have him read only from what he can read easily, even if it must be no harder than a primer... "In case the child in the upper grades or high school has trouble preparing his home assignments in English history, science and the like, read aloud to him these assignments from his texts and help him put each paragraph briefly into his own words. Then help him also find a few minutes DISTRICT WOMEN ELECTED TO OFFICE Toronto, Nov. 8--Mrs. G.
