Wright, president of the Cana- dian Association of Consumers, said today that "an economic crisis is facing our families." In her report tq.the annual meet- ing of the C!A.C., Mrs. Wright said Canadian consumers face 'very real difficulties and hardships" in maintaining their standard of liv- ing. Root cause was .the high cost of essentials. . In a review of the activities. of the 13,000-member women's organi- zation during the last year, Mrs. Wright termed the association "a two-way channel between consum- ers and government, trade and in- dustry." ' She reported that during 1950 -- the association's third year -- 18 national women's organizations par- ticipated, branches were set up in every province but Newfoundland, and the association membership was increased by almost 50 per cent. Mrs. W. S. Winters of Toronto, C.A.C. corresponding secretary, re- ported that the association had twice written to the Federal Agri- culture Department, protesting meat prices. "Nevertheless, the hurdles eof high-priced meat; the compulsion of the Canadian consumer for the most part to buy poorer grades of meat selling at as high or higher than U.S. prices; the continued policies of wrapping bacon in de- ceptive, red-striped cellophane: and lack of compulsory meat gradings, still stand." \ --_------ HONORED AT SHOWER Mrs. William Barry, St. Julian! Street, was hostess at a surprise miscellaneous shower recently in honor of Miss Betty King, a brid - lest of this month. , On arrival the honcred guest was seated in a srecial in By a gaily decorated umbrella and pre- sented with a c(orsa.e of pink and white balloons.

Finds Few Dull Moments In Sudbury Post Sudbury, - Ont.--(CP)--Wrongdo- ers brought into ~ art in Sudbury district may find themselves facing the sterr owe eyes of Mrs. Percy Coates, one of the first women in Ont:rio to be appointed a Justice of the Peace. Since her appointment in 1939, she has held court about once a week, when two regular district ma- gistrates are away or ill. Sae has dealt with hundreds of minor cases and remanded serious ones to the magistrates.» ¥ \ Schoolday ambitions of becoming a court reporter led her to special- ize in shorthand. Before her course was finished, she accepted a posi- tion as reporter nn the division court, taking down in shorthand the proceedings of the court. That was| 34 years ago. In 1919 she became secretary to R. R.. McKessock, then Sudbury District Crown Attorney. She com- bined this job with court report ing and for 11 years did the work now done by two men. She gave up court reporting but continued as secretary after E. D. Wilkins suc- ceeded Mr. McKessock as Crown Attorney and the work of office in- creased with thc growth of the north, One day in 1936, when Mr. Wil- kins was ill, Mrs. Coates acted in his place at the Assizes of the Ont- arip Supreme Court. Wearing a black robe with stiff white collar, for a day and a half she presented evidence in three manslaughter cases to the Grand Jury. "Mr. Wilkins had drilled me so thoroughly in the criminal code over the year: that it was only na- tural to act for him," =e said, Sometimes Mrs. Coates is asked to perform marriages. As Justice of the Peace, she hasih"t authority to do so. However, she frequently signs warrants late at night to enable police to carry out raids. She pursues an active social life, is a former officer of the Order of Eastern Star, a member of a Hospi- tal Auxiliary and of the Business and Professional Womens Club, and Superintendent of the cradle roll Sunday School Class at St. Andrew's United Church. On Sat- urday afternoons when the court- house is closed, she finds time for a round of golf. "I-wouldn't want to be a criminal lawyer," she says. "But there's a definite place for women as legal stenographers and in various other courthouse capacities." LYCEUM CLUB & WOMEN'S ART ASSN.

They Ask As English Bird Invades Floral Clock RE Edinburgh Corporation is justly proud of Frinces Street Gardens and the piece de resistanco -- the floral clock. 8 Like most Corporations it is open to suggestions for improvements no matter where they come from nor how impractical they may appear. In due course, the appropriate committee considers the proposal and accepts or rejects it with the same urbane politeness which is at once the delight and the despair of 'the more impetuous citizenry. For some time there have been murmurings that all was not well with the ghost of a cuckoo call which hourly hung in the air above the floral clock. The dissatisfaction led to discus- sion, the discussion to resolution, the resolution to action, and the action to the appearance, as though by magic of a cuckoo housed in a but (without the ben) to the north west corner of the floral clock. The cuckoo is pre-eminently an English bird, Its arrival on the summer scene, heralded by its own unique call, is the occasion for great activity, as much on the part of certain well-known English types as the feather inhabitants of the English woods and dells. When the first flute-like notes have rolled across the meadows, it is the invariable custom of retired English colonels to dash with un- accustomed and dangerous vigor to the library, there to pen a note to "The Times" to record the pleasing evidence of their ears and this in- dication of the English summer's accepted arrival. But in Scotland the cuckoo has no significance, and its monotony of dual notes is regarded as noth- ing compared with the lark. Edinburgh Corporation, however, disdains any suggestion that the cuckoo's call should be left ex- clusively to the cuckoo. In the in- terest of a grateful population and the enlightenment of visitors and others who have no wateh, it has installed a cuckoo which now works floral clock. complete. assembled to admire the floral beauties of the clock are trebled by the multitude which now gathers to admire this final extravagance of horlogerie. raised a point. claim, and with justice, is an Eng- lish bird.
