Now © 23-year-old Margaret has taken to the air--at least she works for an airline company, and may | become a full-fledged flier one of these days. ; The top-ranking young swimmer, who six years ago won the 100-yard and 220-yard Canadian Junior Wo- men's championships and' also the Quebec provincial title for 100 yards free style, retired from active competition in 1943 because "I seem to have had enough." She said she likes her present work and her interests are likely to be centred in that direction for some time, Nowadays she swims only for recreation, Years of daily practice and hard | training for swimming meets have been cast aside for a more varied | sports program which includes pad- dling and horseback-riding.

W. POTTER who joined her husband who lives at 305 Gibbons Street, early last month, Fortune-Tellers May See Into the Future An English girl had her fortune told by a fortune-teller in Ken. nard's store in Croydon nine or ten years 'ago,' Reading the girl's hand, cards and a crystal, the woman promised her a seaside holiday, a "handful of money from a gray- eyed man past middle age" and lastly, "a tall, fair, good-looking man from across the water." Time passed and the girl almost forgot about the threefold fortune until it began to be fulfilled when a friend asked her to go with her to Brighton for a week. It's true that the friend's dog hurt its foot when they went for a walk on the heath and they had to cut their holiday short on the dog's account, Later the girl changed employers and this time her employer was | gray-eyed and middle-aged. No, he | did not give her a money" but when his affairs were "handful of being settled up after his death, his children insisted the girl accept a | gift of five pounds. World War II came and the girl | wag stationed at a First Ald post at | Croydon, One Sunday evening she went to see magic lantern pictures being shown servicemen. The third part of her fortune then began to be fulfilled for she met Pte. G. W. Potter of Oshawa who went over- | seas at Christmas in 1939. Oh, no, Mrs. Potter doesn't be. lieve in fortune-tellers, she seems too sensible for that but anyway, she was married to the "tall, fair, good-looking man from across the water" at Ryegate in Surrey five years ago and she sailed for Can- ada on the Queen Mary the last day of June this year. Her husband arrived from overseas last summer, and they are living at 305 Gibbons Street. Her first Sunday here she had her first banana in five years, a real event. » ' She had not expected to find Canadians using ration books, she confessed the other day. In fact, she had brought hers along as a sort of curiosity. Nor was she pre- pared for our shortage of bacon. 'The reporter suspected she was a bit disappointed about this. However, this bright English girl is delighted to be able to do her laundry with an electric washing machine, a convenience she had not used in England. Her greatest joy of all is, per- haps, the prospect of getting a home of her very own and the first step toward that has been taken: her husband has bought a lot and expects to build as soon as possible. Some of the furniture for the new home has already been bought and the young homemaker showed with pride the pieces he had surprised her with on her arrival, Mcins Vinegars Happy Doubles Hold Children's Picnic Seventy attended the picnic given by the Happy Doubles Club of King Street United Church for their children on Saturday at Lakeview Park, Mr, and Mrs. Vernon Os- borme were in charge of the races, prizes for which were presentd af- ter a bountiful supper, Every child received a package of popcorn, The picnic was brought to a close with a lively ball game, Results of the races were: Boys 4 years and under--Robert Osborne and Ronnie Milne, ~ Girls 4 years and under--Sally Lane and Lynne Bradley, Girls 6 years and under--Caro- line Buss and Joanie Cryderman.
