OTTAWA--Trudes Minister Nace Kinnon has announced a four.year wheat agreement with Great Brie tain. . He told the House of Come mons this morning that Canada will sell the United Kingdom 600 ! million bushels of wheat at a fixed ° 2 price in the first two years. oni Abundance of Food Amazes English Wife While other local housewives complain of the stringent rations and diminishing supplies of house- hold commodities, Mrs. Gordon, who arrived in Halifax on the "Queen Mary" on June 20, is voicing her amazement at the abundance and quality of food here, After the past, and still prevailing, food conditions in England, Cana- da seems to her to be a virtual land of plenty. " , there is no vast dif- ference as I thought there would be. Of course the weather is much different. I love this sunshine." Mrs. Gordon explained that she had been living in a suburb of London, England, after being bombed out of the capital itiself, where life had "| been pretty much the same as that led by any housewife in Oshawa. Stranger than fiction is the fact that Mrs, Gordon met her husband, Pte. W. J. Gordon, Buena Vista, who sérved in the Canadian Bar- racks' Service of the R.CASC, at the wedding of her cousin, who al- so married a Canadian soldier. Mr. and Mrs, Gordon were married September 14 in the Church of England at Gidea Park, Essex, Mrs, Gordon is the former Isabel Fitzgerald and lived with her fam- ily at Chadwell Heath, Essex, until they moved to London, where she was employed. Their house was bombed twice during the early blitz. Pretty, vivacious Mrs. Gordon has made many friends since her arrival in Oshawa and as well, has continued her friendship with Mrs. G. W, Potter, Gibbon Street, who also came over on the "Queen Mary" and travelled here on the came train, Unlike most of the recent arrivals, '| Mrs. Gordon found Halifax, on the clear day on which she docked, very friendly and beautiful, She agreed, however that the trip through the dreary landscape of the Maritimes was a little depressing. On the whole, Canada and, more particularly, Oshawa have impres- sed her favorably and it is hoped that no occasion will arise to alter her love for her new home and sur- roundings. Former Oshawa Girl Wed to Trenton Man Gladioli, snapdragons and sweet peas decorated the home of Mr. and Mrs, Warner B, Brown, Carry- ing Place, for the wedding last Tuesday afternoon of their daugh- ter, Barbara Joy, to Willlam Finley rimshaw, son of Mr, and Mrs, Earle Scrimshaw, Trenton, Rev. Edward W. Todd performed the ceremony. The bride, given in marriage by her father, was gowned in heavenly blue silk jersey and wore a shoul- der-length veil caught to orange blossoms which her mother had worn at her own wedding, She had a corsage of gladioli and sweet peas and her jewellery was her grandmother's pendant and her great-aunt's gold bracelet. Mrs, H. E. Ellis, sister of the bridegroom, was matron of honor and wore a white silk jersey dress with shoulder-length veil, white ac- cessories and a corsage of gladioli and sweet peas. Howard Eugene Ellis was best man, The bride's mother was gowned in yellow figured silk crepe and was sted by the bridegroom's moth- er, in pink silk crepe. The bride's grandmother and the bridegroom's grandmother poured tea at the re- ception. For the wedding trip to points north and west, the bride wore her wedding dress with a shortie coat of wool kasha cloth, beige and brown accessories and a blue flow- ered hat. The couple will take up residence in Trenton. Guests were present from Camp- beliford, Stirling, Peterborough, Trenton and Oshawa. Halifax Like Glasgow Says Scottish Wife "It was rainy and rather misty when we pulled in, and I said to | myself, 'Why it's just Glasgow all over again.' ® This was the first impression received of Halifax by Mrs, Frank Goring, wife of L/Cpl. Frank Goring, 1. grock Street East, when she arrived on the 8. 8. Georgic on July 17. She added that it was "the nicest dock I've seen, with that garden behind it." Petite Mrs. Goring, a charming brunette, is the former Jean Clark of Glasgow. During the war, she worked in a Day Nursery there, She expressed her amazement at the good working hours here, She ex- plained that in Glasgow, the ma- jority works from 8 until 6, five days weekly, and until noon oa Saturdays. J She is having a rather difficult time acquiring a taste for our high- ly spiced foods. She thinks that everything has too much spice and "even the popcorn has salt on it." A continual source of interest to her is our radio system. The Scot tish programs are free of commer= cials and the Canadian singing commercials amuse her greatly. 'There is a great deal more sym=- phonic music played there; practi cally" every other program, in fact, features it. An ardent semi-classi- cal music lover, Mrs. Goring has a small collection of good records. On the whole, she thought that the Scottish broadcasting system was much more "serious", "Why, even your news commentators sound cheery." : Toronto reminds her a great deal of Glasgow but Oshawa is a perfect maze to her. She is having slight difficulty in finding her way around in Oshawa Dut has no doubts that in a short time, she will know her new home as well as her old, and will love it just as well, Social Notices Marriage Angouncemente $100 Bn ts $1.00 ENGAGEMENT Mrs. George Phelps announces the - engagement of her daughter, Helen Irene, to Vincent Larocque, son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Larocque.

Married By Bridegroom's Father The Quality Tea : ORANGE PEKOE Brother and Sister Have Double Wedding The chapel of the Oshawa Mis- slonary College was the scene of a double wedding Thursday evening, when Kathleen Jeffery and her brother, Herbert William Jeffery, William Jeffery, Port Arthur, were united in marriage respectively with Mrs. A. Williamson, Port Arthur, 'and the late O. Biesenthal, and Lila Marie Paulin, daughter of J, E. Paulin, Vancouver, B.C.,, and the late Mrs, Paulin, the ceremony for Miss Jeffery and Mr, Biesenthal, and Elder W. J. Hurdon officiated at the other, The wedding music was played by Mrs. A, E, Carley and the soloists were Miz. A. Tyson-Flyn and C. I. Mar- acle. The brides were given in marriage by their fathers.

E. ---Photo by Hornsby Studio This World We Live In (By the Woman's Editor) "Everybody's on the go, so make your reservation early" has been the slogan of all the advertising put out by the Ontario Department of Travel and Publicity, asserts J. A. MacNab, manager of the North ern Ontario Outfitters' Association, in its bulletin, The effect of this "standing-room only" publicity in the United States has been adverse, he declares and tells of the camp- owner who had to send 21 tele- grams informing guests they need not cancel their bookings. Another reason for Mr. MacNab's dissatisfaction with this Depart. ment of the Government is that the fishing season for lake trout in northern and western areas was so suddenly changed that tourists cancelled reservations and conse- | quently caused three weeks' loss of business for many camps. The Travel and Publicity Department was urgently requested by letter to discuss this change but no answer to the letter was received. T. C. McCall, deputy minister of this De- partment, had no comment to make when confronted with these criti- |- cisms, Great Expectations | The expected flood of tourists has mot come, says Mr. MacNab, and now is the height of the tour- ist season when camps should be suns away business. On the conWary, accommodation is being found with little trouble, he main- tains. The result of all this is that the Northern Ontario Outfitters' Asso- clation hopes to handle its own publicity for that area next year, according to the manager. From Niagara Falls has come this news item which should be a jus- tification of the Governpent's-ad- vertising: "Slightly les§ than half a million tourists have entered Canada through this port during the first two weeks of July. This represents a tremendous increase over any two-week period during the war years and a sizeable in. crease over any corresponding pere fod in years prior to the war, Busi- ness at the Whirlpool Rapids Bridge is up 50 per cent over July 15, 1045, and the Rainbow Bridge in- crease is estimated at 80 per, cent." We have seen no figures for the other ports of entry such as Sarnia, Windsor and Fort Erle, but there is every possibility that they will show a similar record. Double Bookings As for United States tourists can- celling reservations, we found a possible explanation in last Sun- day's New York Times under the heading, "Accommodations Ease as Vacation Season Approaches the Half-Way Point." We quote: "Early in the spring many oper. ators feared crowds beyond the ca= pacity of their accommodations and they warned the public to make ad- vance reservations, Many not only heeded this advice, but filed dupli- cate reservations to make sure of rooms in one of several vacation spots. Their subsequent cancella- tions have relieved the demand so that resorts that were sold out im June for the season now have space for late comers. "This does not mean a decline in holiday business, Indicative of the trend through the nation is Maine's revision of its early season esti- mate of "1,000,000 vacationists to 1,500,000 yet here as elsewhere re- sort operators say accommodations are available." Evidence of "Ads." Scanning the resort advertise. ments in three Ontario dailies, we frequently find statements to this effect: "Some accommodation available", "Limited accommoda= tion from Aug. 10" and "A few re- servations left for August and Sep- tember", Only once did we come across an echo of the Government's advertising, "Reserve early to avoid disappointment" and only once also did we find this sort: "Regardless of false reports that the tourists houses and cabins in the North are full, we have accommodation in both." The latter advertisement referred to the Magnetawan regian and hinted at Mr. MacNab's state= ments in his bulletin, We hold no brief for the govern= ment in power at Queen's Park but we can't support the Northein One- tario folks in the condemnation of slogans such as "Everybody's on the go, so make your reservation early," for figures seem to prove that for every 100 persons "on the go" last year in early July there have been 150 this year, and therefore the ad- vertising of the Department of Travel and Publicity was wisely worded. Albert Street W.A. Picnics at Orono -- pn The members and friunds of the Senior Woman's" Association of Al bert Street United Church went to Orono Park by bus last Thursday afternoon for their annual picnile. Strolling through the lovely grounds, looking at the beautiful gardens and taking part in the games passed a pleasant afternoon followed by a picnic supper.
