THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE MONDAY, MAY: 1, 1950 ~ OF IN Family Honors Golden Wedding A family gathering marked a happy occasion on Saturday, when Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Fowler, Conant Street, marked their golden wed- ding anniversary. Except for three grandchildren the whole family was present and a toast to the pair was proposed by their second son, Mr, Edward Charles Fowler. They received a number of beau- tiful and useful gifts, numerous cards, and telegrams from London, Montreal, and the west coast and Trent, Michigan, and among their flowers, was a bouquet from their randchildren. & They have seven children, 24 grandchildren and three great- grandchildren. Their children are four sons, George, Edward, Walter and Ernest all of Toronto, and three daughters, Alice (Mrs. George Hardsand, Oshawa); Muriel (Mrs. Walter Lawrence, Port Perry); and Edith (Mrs. Gerald Black, Co- bourg); also present was Mrs. Fow- ler's cousin, Mr. William Garrard and Mrs. Garrard of Oshawa, and Miss Marion Kirkpatrick, and Mr. Don. Buldock, both of Toronto. Married in St. Clement's Church, Barnsbury, North - London, the couple came to Canada in 1903 and spent their first year in Northern Michigan. Finding themselves un- suited to the hard, ploneering life in the bush they decided to come to Oshawa where Mrs. Fowler had an uncle living, and they settled here in 1904, first at Thornton's Corners and later at the corner of Jackson and Celina Streets, known then as the Ten Acres, Mrs. Fowler was the former Miss Catherine Aldis, and although she was born in Ipswich, she spent her childhood in London. Mr. Fowler, porn within the sound of Bow Bells is proud of his claim to being a Cockney. Probably little remains of his old home today as it was in Cloth Fair, a part of the City that crumbled under the blitz. After all the ups and downs that the years have brought they do not regret coming to Canada. "It hasn't been easy at times," Mrs. Fowler said, "We moved to Toronto in 1916 because we felt there would be more opportunity there, especially for the children." The couple returned in 1948 to find Oshawa a changed place. "I was fairly well known here before we went away," Mr. Fowler volunteered, "but now I can walk around town without seeing a soul I know. The old timers have all disappeared but two." Mr. Fowler joined the Sons of England Lodge in 1905. He and Mrs. Fowler are members of the Golden Age Club of Simcoe Hall, where they were honored on Thurs- day evening when they were pre- sented with a flowering plant and a card bearing the signature of all the members.

Rita To Polar Bear Women In Headlines London--(CP)--Dr. Edith Sum- merskill, who often hits the head- lines herself, says that women make the news. "Women can make or break a Journalist," she told a Ladies' Night meeting of the London Press Club. "After all, who made the news? -- Rita Hayworth, Ingrid Bergman and now a woman greater than any other, Brumas." Brumas is the four-months-old polar bear cub now drawing record attendances to Regent's Park Zoo. Dr. Summerskill, appointed min- ister of national insurance in the recent government reconstruction, addressed the press club on one of its two annual guest nights. "I have a horrid suspicion," she said, "that the women are invited on those two nights only to keep them sweet and reasonable for the other 363 nights."

FOWLER who were receiving gifts, flowers and congratulations on Saturday, their To mark the occasion a family gathering was held at their home on Conant Street, and many friends called during ~Times-Gazette Staff Photo. "Casual and chic" was the theme of the fashion show that held the rapt attention of the on-lookers for over an hour on Friday and Satur- day at the Industrial Fair. Suits, jackets and "play togs" were exhib- ited by Sportrite Junior Limited and swimming suits, sun dresses and evening gowns came from Cole of California. Both companies have factories in Oshawa, and the gar- ments shown were all made here. Mrs. Harold Brownlee introduced the models and described the dash- ing styles, A sigh went around as Miss Bev- erly Brown, Toronto model, stepped forth in a three piece ensemble of white :gabardine trimmed with brown braid. The white and brown polka dot blouse was in the newly- introduced sleeveless style, remin- iscent of the 1020's, and could be worn#as a separate with the free swinging pleated skirt. Miss Betty Murray made her bow in a wool jersey blouse and wool plaid co-ordinate skirt which won the fancy of the junior crowd. The pink tones in the skirt and blouse were dyed to match, making them perfect mix mates. The blouse fastened with removable rhinestone studs, a sparkling touch. Ideal for travelling on that June honeymoon trip was a two-piece gabardine suit in the latest crushed tomato red. It was styled with a double breasted jacket with a but- toned back peplum and a 12 gore rolled pleated skirt, "to whirl away on a wedding day". "Crease resistant and washable" were the appealing practical aspects of a distinguished ensemble of gold and mint green. The gold gabar- dine topper was worn over a mint green tropical linen suit, featuring military patch pockets. The topper with slash pockets and swing back is the perfect casual. The ensemble was smoothly modelled by Miss Chris Baxter. The models all came from Toronto and are noted "cover girls", : The most unusual skirt of the year is called a "patio". A six-yard sweep at the hem revealed a beauti- ful conversational print of Japanese motif. Every youhg woman will want one of these for summer en- tertaining or for special holiday weekends, Glamorizing the "gals" 1s the business of Cole of California, and their strapless, backless, two way stretch swim suits, mould and trim any figure. Cole, first to put velvet in the water, makes history again ric creation, sumptuous watermark- ed silk velvet laton. Their swim suits and sun dresses are made curve-clinging by the magic of elas- tic shirring in a patented process called Matletex. A sylph suit in nylon laton is re- markable for its quick drying pro- pensities. Skilfully styled it would make any figure look better and a good figure, divine. It was shown in a breathtaking lilac shade. A mother and daughter ensemble in ever crisp 'picolay with lace-foam ruffles and a shirred Matletex bod- ice proved very popular. The di- minutive model was little Miss Elizabeth Dyer, aged 2%, daughter of Mr, and 8. J. W. Dyer, Athol Street East. Then there was the "Woo-some Two-some for Land or Sea". An intriguing introduction for a swim suit ensemble with skirt to match up in bandana printed cotton. Each season more and more women dis- cover how smart it is to have skirts to wear over their swim suits or separately as bare midriff sun dresses. A sultry pareo sun dress was strictly for sophisticates.

In the last few years, Red Cross has become more widely recognized and more firmly established in the field of Homemaker Services. Osh- awa is proud to be one of the 25 centres in Ontario operating this service, which is helping the Ontario Division play such an important part \In assisting Canada to keep pace with the other countries in the development of Homemaker Ser- vices. The local service is in its fourth year of operation and a marked in- crease over the service given in the past, indicates a growing demand and a wider knowledge of this aspect of Red Cross. What a relief it is to a mother to know that she can "book" a homemaker months ahead and go to the hospital to have her new.baby, assured that a cap- able, practical woman will be in her home during her absence, car- ing for her children, managing her home, and be there to help her on her return until such time as she 'is able to once again assume her ousehold tasks. To date this year in Oshawa, Red Cross" has helped 57 families with 99 children and the seven home- makers have worked a total of 401 days. By the continued number of let- ters and expressions of appreciation from the families having the ser- vice, the Oshawa Branch is assured that this work is necessary and greatly appreciated in the city and the Township of East Whitby. When mother is ill, and someone is needed to care for the children and home, phone the Red Cross Homemaker Service, 4177, and the supervisor, Miss Doris Moore, Reg.N., will call and arrange for a homemaker to take over during the daytime, thus allowing the husband to go to work knowing that his chil- dren are cared for.

Celebrate Silver Anniversary MR. AND MRS. FRANK PIONTEK which was observed at a reception on Friday evening at the Polish Hall of their silver wedding anniversary ~Times-Gazette Staff Photo. New York, N.Y. (Special) The "sad, sad story" is that most women don't vet know how to care for their jewellery, the lifetime possessions they want to have remain beautiful always, So, seeking a happy ending, Mari- anne Ostier, celebrated Viennese jewellery designer now in New York, is working with retail jewellers to help them teach women how to pro- tect their fine pieces. There are "three C's in this educational pro- gram announced by Mrs. Ostier, "caring, cleaning and checking." "First of all, in the care of jewel- lery, women should never put dif- ferent kinds of nieces into thz same compartment of their jewel cases," Mrs. Ostier said. "Diamonds should not be close to rubies or pearls, for they will scratch them. Gold and white precious metals palladium and platinum can be scarred by diamonds, too. Jewel cases them- selves must be kent clean. Too of- ten, women let powder from cos- metic kits get mixed up with their jewellery. "Altogether many women wash dishes while wearing their rings. Others try to soap their jewellery. Soap leaves a film on precious pieces that detracts from their beauty, "Women should never try to clean their own Jewellery," Mrs. Ostier emphasized. "In this jewel- lery education, we want them to know about the technical aspects of cleaning the valuable pieces, so that they will recognize that the safest thing to do is to ask the jeweller for this service." Listing several technical points | as examples, she said white palla- dium pieces with white stones are boiled in water and ammonia, but colored stones break in half or chip when boiled. The correct procedures are too complicated to be done at home. "Diamonds can stand any 'temperature in water, but the softer rubies or sapphires can- not, and pearls, of course, must never be wet at all" she . added. Some women attempt to rub off liquids to dry their pieces, while experts use sawdust, the softest, safest way to dry. them. This, too, seems inadvisable for home use. "Security of the stone or the en- tire piece is very important," Mrs. too Three 'C's' in Jewellery Education Caring, Cleaning and Checking The use of palladium 'and plati- num for stone seitings, she pointed out, has largely removed the dan- ger of losing the entire gem, be- cause these precious white metals hold stones securely. "Checking valuable pieces with a jeweller at least once a year is therefore an excellent habit for American women to acquire," Mrs. Ostier said. "And whenever a ring has been struc az- st o herd sur- face, it should be checked as soon as possible." Mrs. Oster said most jewellers recognize that service does not end with the sale of a ring, brooch or bracelet, so they are glad to h:lp women keep their jewellery lovely. DON'T HESITATE Don't hesitate about seeing your doctor if you suspect you may have cancer, And don't let fear of this cisease make you put off having medical attention." Hundreds of cancer patients are cured each year and a patient's chances of a complete and lasting cure are far higher if the disease is detected and treated in its early stages. Don't wait for pain. It is not an early symptom. Silver Wedding Of Drew St. Pair Mr. and Mrs. Frank Piontek, Drew Street, who observed their silver wedding anniversary on Fri day were the guests of honor at a reception held at the Polish Hall when 150 guests were present.
