Oilcloth was one of our favorite coverings for such pillows unti] it all but disappeared from the shop- keepers' shelves during the war years, That was when we turned to rag rugs for pillow material. We use the small inexpensive ones and find that they make very satis- factory pillow covers. In fact, we are still using them, though oilcloth is back in plentiful supply again. To make g pillow of one of these rugs, we fold it once crosswise and sew up the two sides on the sewing ma- chine, using stout thread and a long stitch, leaving the end open for fill- ing. For this purpose, we use various | materials--sweet fern, pine needles, sphagnum moss, etc. Then the two {ringed ends are brought together and securely stitched. A mord of advice about filling may not be amiss. Bd sure to fill the pillows very full of whatever ma- ierial you. use, crowding it down well; for it will settle when the pil- lows are used. And skimpy pillows are neither comfortable nor attrac- tive. These sturdy, practical pillows are not only comfortable, but colorful and good-looking, too. When they beécme soiled, it is the work of a few minutes only to open them up, shake out the filling and put the rugs through the washing machine.

NORTH Arthritic Sufferers NEW Plasmatic-fever Therapy -- Doctor of Chiropractic -- PHONE 869 Theatre Talk New York,--(CP)--Theatre fans have proved through the years that they like their terpsichore well done. The dance sensations of Broadway in recent years have been created by one of New York's own--Helen Tamaris. Some 30 years ago she was a tow-haired little girl who learned to dance in one of New York's most famous social service centres, the Henry' Street Settlement. Today the former Helen Becker is the creator of the ultra-modern floor work in "Annie Get Your Gun," the stage and screen versions of "Up In Cen- tral Park," as well as a number of musicals no longer on the boards. Her great triumph, however, is a dance item entitled "Tiger Lily" in the new Beatrice Lillie musical "In- side US.A." It is one of those theatrical phenomena that stop shows cold. "Tiger Lily," in which Tamaris dances with Eric Victor, the Pari- sian choreographer who had Mont- realers applauding for month after month not many years ago, is the drama of a murderess who goes scot free by vamping the judge and jury--and M. Victor, the alienist. "Then she murders the gullible alien- ist. At 42, she still has a muscular body and looks like a lady lecturer off the stage. On stage she appears young, lithe . and exceedingly at- tractive------attractive enough to vamp the audience, as: well as the judge and jury.

PHONE 758 More weddings this fall than ev- er befcre, with the majority of those getting married young peo- ple in their late teens and early 20's, is the situation in Chicago, according to Mary Margaret Gerity, wedding consultant of bridal pro- motion for one of Chicago's largest department stores. "Bride's counselling has got to be a year-around business," says Miss Gerity, who is in Canada with her parents for annual vacation, "It used to he seasonal, but now people seem to ke getting married every day of every week of every month of the year. And mostly young people." Special arrangements have been made by her firm to cater to the ycung people, afternocns and evenings. Tuesday to Saturday inclusive the store's consultant and her 15 assist- ants are on duty from 10 to 5.30. On Mondays from noon to 8.30. "We get a big break by closing at 5 on Saturdays in summer," she added. Her firm's counselling bureau in its present setup is patterned large- ly after Eaton's wedding bureau to which her store sent her three years ago to learn the servicing angle of brides' counselling, She spent 10 days training under Eat- on's Claire Dreier, explained Miss Gerity. On her return to Chicago her store's three departments serv- ing brides were co-ordinated under her direction. "Servicing" explained Miss Ger- ity, means going out to weddings, which was something new. off work Saturday ! From! More and More Girls Choose Fall For That Ail-Important Event "Now we go to the weddings, dress the girls, go to the church, on to the reception, arrange the r ceiving line, tell the bride when tS cut her cake and when to throw her bouquet, get her into her going- away outfit, and then we collapse, and I mean collapse.' Besides servicing, there is the in- side work, advice and sale of all wearing apparel and trousseau clothes, "and the only things we do not sell in the department are girdles and shoes, and these h-ve to be fitted in their respective ce=- partments," said Miss Gerity. There are also such other items as arran- ging for cabs, florists, photograph- ers and refreshments. About 90 per cent of Chicago wed= dings are church ceremonies, 8 per cent in hotels and only about 2 per cent in private hcmes, Recepiitns are at hotels and clubs. "We do not have such spacious living quarters as you Canadians," she reminded. The more money Chicago people have, the more economical they are with regard to wedding gowns and attendants' dresset, "and we serve many wealthy families," she said. "The avearge wedding gown, which is in majority the traditional satin costs around $125, with brides= maid's dresses about $35 each. "The brides would rather put more money into their trousseau clothes that is, the suits and frocks they will take with them, and bridesmaids like something they can use later as dinner gowns or evening gowns." Brides prefer fine ger-length to long veils, she said. Dinner Gown Shadows of future evenings are reflected in the. slim skirt and fluted hemline of this graceful din- ner dress.

Pink, Orange, Mauve Underwear for Men Eugene J. Hynes, a bow-tied fine ancier, is cut today to get the American male into such "beautiful, gorgeous, riotous" underwear that the ladies will have to do the whistle calls. The women, Hynes said, should 'I be his biggect bocsters in the pro- ject, if they only knew what was good for them. "They should have dressed their men up long ago," Hynes said. "It's'_ good fer their ego. After all, that's what makes them better men." Hynes says the campaign is deing fine already despite the women. Abcut one-third more are wear ing giddy shorts today than were wearing them a year ago, he ectie mated. Ceclorful pyjamas s-leg haven't gone up, he said, "because mama is still buying the pyjamas." Hynes deesn't give himself too much credit for the bright color craze however. It's prosperity and leisure that are doing the trick, he said. The five-day week has got more men into gym and country club locker rooms, he pointed out, "where they really want to show off." And "while mom was making up her mind whether to huy a lonzer skirt, pop just went off with some of the money and bought himself seme underwear." PINK, ORANGE. LAVENDER He's buying it in pink. oranee, hunter's green and lavendar polka dots, Hynes said, and there's no tellinz which colors are most popu- lar. But the conservative blues and browns that used to be the only alternatives to white are fading fast. Hynes is perfectly willing to leave the color under a convention al city suit--or cut in 'the country.
