The exhibition consists of some exceptionally fine landscapes of var- fous sizes. The saying that a real artist can find subjects within sight of his own doorstep was never truer than in Leonard Brooks' case. One bright and pleasing canvas of a neighbor's backyard, complete with Monday's washing on the line, groves this to be true, Leonard Brooks is primarily a painter of nature in her quiet, more somber moods, and is especially elo- quent when painting with a restrain. ed and subtle pallet of warm greys oie NH) FEMALE PAIN 2 This fine medicine is very effective to relieve pain, nervous d and 3 cranky, 'drag ho fi .of such -- to female day hen ue ue to, fumals | | LYDIA E.

[| and Mrs. and cool greens, His sincere and realistic approach to his subject made his canvasses popular with the conservative connolsseur, Mr, Brooks is considered one of Canada's top-ranking artists, It is, to say the least, a gonveni- ence for the people of Oshawa to have fine Canadian exhibitions, brought here for their pleasure, The committee responsible is only too glad to do all the volunteer work in connection with these exhibitions and is amply repaid by either en- thusiastic or critical crowds attend- ing these art shows at Adélaide House, It has been sald that Canadians, unlike people of other countries, are only mildly interested in their ar- tists and craftsmen. Is it because we lack understanding or the op- portunity to view our artists' work? The opportunity is in our midst, the understanding will come if we give it a chance. Adelaide House is for our use, let us enjoy it and the paintings.

She was serving in the ATS, as a waitress in the officers' mess at Ashvale, Mychet, Hants, when she met her future husband who was on leave at nearby Farn- borough, At that time Trooper Don Leavitt was in the Second Oa- nadian Armoured Brigade, and is now attached to the Service Corps, and hopes soon to join his bride who has come to Canada ahead of him, Salling from Southampton on the Lady Nelson which is still fitted up as a hospital ship, Mrs, Leavitt en- Joyed every minute of the voyage, and had warm praise for the Red Cross nurses and army officer in charge. She argved in Halifax September 12 and came straight to the home lof her husband's parents, Mr; and Mrs, Percy Leavitt, on Conant Street, When her husband was stationed near Guildford, she was able to share a cottage there, but found housekeeping on one ration book was "pretty grim," Some of the weekly rations she mentioned were 2 ozs. of tea, 1 egg, 2 strips of bac~ on, 2 ozs. of butter, 1 oz, of lard, and 2'% loaves which also includes pastry and cake, There must have been a great temptation to eat the bacon and egg together once in a while, When asked what had impressed her most here, Mrs, Leavitt thought it was the friendliness of the peo- ple. "Of course I think the groce- terias are wonderful too," she add- ed, "everything is so handy." She is enjoying salads, and all the fruit in season, especially bananas and peaches, "The only thing I have found I can't eat," she sald, "is the sweet potato, I suppose the war restrictions have eliminated my sweet tooth," "The right hand traffic is a bit difficult to get used to, butl I'm learning to look both ways, and I think the pedestrians' habit of crossing at turnings (intersections) is splendid. It must make driving much easier than at homs#, where people cross anywhere and so many get killed," The reporter wonder- ed if she had visited Toronto yet, but refrained from spoiling such a good impression, Emma Hartman Wed To David B. Tonks Simcoe Street United Church parsonage was the setting recently or the marriage of Emma slrene Hartman, daughter of Mr, and Mrs, James Gibson, Burk Street, to Mr. David Bayard Tonks, son of Mr, and Mrs, J.

The bride is the former Cynthia Ellen Thomas of Upper Redbrook, Gloucestershire, daughter of Mr, and Mrs, James L. Thomas, and the bridegroom is the son of Mz, and Mrs, Percy Leavitt, Conant Street, Oshawa, The bride arrived here a fortnight ago on the Lady Nelson a expected soon, An interview with Mrs, her husband still overseas, is onald Leavitt appears at left, A Little War Guest Attends Her First Promenade Concert A little lady of Oshawa went to her | first Promenade Concert on Tuesday night, Eagerly she waited for the orchestra to take its place, and when the players were seated and tuning up, the following bombard- ment started: "Why don't they get ready bhe- forehand?" "They like to do It all together." "Weren't they all together at the back?" "I suppose so." | "Now what are they waiting for?" "The conductor," "Is he late?" "No." "Well, why doesn't he come in?" "He likes to come in by himself when everybody is ready and wait~ ing." 4 "Oh!" "Why do they play 'God Save fhe King' first?" "So that people don't have to wait at the end." "Don't they want to stay till the end?" 'Yes, but they wouldn't stand still, and you always stand still for 'The King' " "Why wouldn't they?" "They all want to get on the first street car." The programme continues, After the symphony, the concert master leaves the Arena, "Why did the conductor send him out?" "So that he could come back as a soloist, for the next plece." "Does he have to go out just to come back again?" "Yes," "Here he comes; he looks just the same buy I suppose he feels dif- ferent standing on that little stage." When the orcnestra plays a group of polkas, the little girl bounces de- lightedly, till it embarks on one full discord and weird sounds by Shose takovich, "Is something wrong? "No," "It sounds as if they're making mistakes, What's next?" "I can't see." "Why don't they put the lights on » between times? It's loud, isn't ton "Yes." "Don't you think the man with the dishes could hit them more quietly?" 'He likes it that way." "Do you think the conductor is a dancer?" "No." "He does the arm movements ana look at his hands!" "Christine, can't you sit still?" "No, is it nearly intermission?" The ballet is much more success ful, She thinks the male dancer looks like a prince; the lady in Swan Lake is too fat; the best bit of the Bolero is the dancer's awirh ing red skirt, and the red boots of the Polish dancer fascinate her, The Circus number. is her first choice, it is as gay as a picture from a story book. Maybe the ballet is only a fairy tale for grownups after all MOULTING TOAD The common tgad moults or sheds its outer skih several times a year, ) Wit yOu GROCER po WINONA DENYES Soprano HEAR KATE AITKEN oN "WHAT PRICE PEACE" SIMCOE STREET UNITED CHURCH OCTOBER 1, 1946--8.15 P.M.
