The World is Young Again children make a charming picture in their national festival costume, and they are eager to give the decora- ted eggs to those they love as tokens of affection and good luck. --Times-Gazette Staff Photo. Toronto--The more she travels throughout the world, the more Kate Aitken is convinced that wo- men hold the key to a lasting peace. Mrs. Aitken, who is now back at work after a flying trip to Rome, Paris and London to learn what average families in other parts of the world were thinking about the problems of peace, has in the past year also visited Berlin, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Calcutta. She found few men who believed the world was in a peaceful era; most were convinced that this was an uneasy bridge between World War II and World War III. Women, hcwever, were more hopeful; and, at a conference of women from 14 countries which she recently at- tended in Berlin, she found French- women sitting beside German wo- men without malice, seeking to work out methods of preserving peace. By such individual thought and effort, women held the greatest weapon to prevent another war. At 58, Mrs, Aitken holds down four full-time jobs, in two different cities, shuttling 700 miles between Tr-onto and Montreal, in her work as radio commentator, editor, pub- licist and director of women's ac- tivities at the Canadian National Exhibition. Calling her Canada's busiest and most widely-travelled woman, a c¢ pyright article in Coro- net quotes Kate Aitken as saying: "I'm not really a career woman, I was just pushed by economic ne- cessity. Now I can't stop." The push came in 1927, when 1,000 of her prize chickens were stolen Kate Aitken Back from Quick Trip Finds Women Hopeful for Peace from her farm at Beeton, Ontario. With her business almost wiped out and her daughters old enough even then to go to high school and col- lege, she stepped into a new career --broadcasting. At first she concentrated on chit- chat and food hints. Now a grand- mother, she attracts both men and women listeners with news of wide interest. Last year she completed a round-th2-world trip in 17 days. This year, week-end jaunts between broadcasts have taken her to sev- eral European capitals. To handle her four jobs, she has a dozen assistants and keeps two residences -- a large home in To- ronto and an apartment in Mont- real. It is her boast that in the last 17 years she has never been late for a broadcast, although some- times to meet deadlines, she has to record her talks in advance, while travelling.

For weeks nimble fingers have been deftly applying wax and color to eggs to have them beautifully decorated for Easter Sunday. The result of the combination of a steady hand and an eye for color was displayed at a flower show last Sunday and is now on view in a local movie theatre. The de- coration on these eggs is the work of a group of young women of St. John's Ukrainian Greek Or- thodox Church, who have learned the art from their mothers and grandmothers who brought it with them from their native Ukraine. These young women don't claim to be artists, although there is a great deal of artistry in their work. "It takes us about an hour to do a nice egg," they said, "but a real artist takes a long time and has a handsome design." But like all home handicrafts there is a natural charm in the design and coloring of these eggs, that would be lost in applied technique. The predominating colors are a rich brown, dark blue and red, while yellow, purple, green and white are used in the patterns. The patterns fall into categories In Ji Co Ukrainians' Love of Color, Artistry Seen in Beautifully Decorated Eggs while remaining individual ang original. Some have inscriptions in Ukrainian such as the ones seen in the foreground of the pictur which are the words "Christ "Is Risen." Others bear religious sym- bols and the orthodox Cross. Flow- ers and geometric designs lend themselves for innumerable varia- tions, and differ slightly accord- ing to the part of the country from which the designer originated. The desigfls are similar to those used in needlework and embroidery. Before the eggs are colored they are cooked. The coloring matter is a vegetable dye of the kind used for cloth. Color goes on over color so that the lightest color in the design must be the first dye used. Over this light color is drawn a de- sign in wax, Then the egg is dip- ped in the second color and anoth- er design added. In this way four, five or six colors are added and the design becomes fuller each time, Finally the wax is melted off in a gentle heat, and the gaily colored and decorated egg is ready to be presented to a loved one on Sunday morning, when it will be taken to church to receive the blessing. Miss Barbara Reid Feted Bride-Elect Mrs. W. J. McLean and Miss Bet- ty Snelgrove were hostesses at a miscellaneous shower for Miss Bar- bara Mary Reid, a bride elect of this Saturday. The party was held at the home of Mrs. McLean, Que- bec Street. On arrival the future bride was seated in a special chair under a canopy of yellow and mauve stream- ers and presented with a corsage of variegated pansies and a decor- ated basket overflowing with gaily packaged gifts. For entertainment. bingo was played, prizes being awarded to Mrs. Gordon Garrard, Mrs. R. Dun- can and Mrs. H. Bickle, In the guessing contest Mrs, Walter Dun- can received a prize. Refreshments were served by Miss Betty Griffin and Miss Snel- grove. Decorated twin heart shaped cakes in a setting of pansies and mauve stocks graced the tea table.
