Guides, Brownies Receive Letter Of Thanks from Grenfell Mission Mrs. D. E.'Jackson, Good Turns Convener for the Oshawa Girl Guide Association, recently receiv- od the following letter' from the Grenfell Mission. During the past months the local Guides and Brownies have been collecting silks for handicraft work taught at the Mission and were pleased to re- ceive the following reply: Dear Oshawa Brownies and Guides. I, for one, am beginning to think "all good things come from Osh- awa", well maybe not "all", but I am sure many do. The warm heart- pd generous person of Miss Muriel Gifford who has been a rock of strength in her friendship and her work is a good example and now that the steamer has unloaded her pargo I find three boxes of stock- Ings and rayon pieces collected by you Brownies. It was a grand lot and we do appreciate your inter- est and the effort you each made. Thank you, each one who helped. Our Industrial Shop or as the sign = says, "Grenfell Labrador Handicrafts", is a small shop but cosy and warm, and oh! so gay. It Is thrilling to see the finished handwork come in and our pay- ment book at the end of the month Is proof that our work is really worthwhile in providing an income and an oulet for the coast peoples work. Harrington Harbour consists of a series of Islands of glacial rock formation; of these seven islands I suppose "Hospital Island" with its stores, telegraph and Grenfell Mission Hospital is the most im- portant, We are four miles from the mainland that is inhabited only in the wintery months when the families who live on the outside is- lands for fishing in the. summer, move into the warmth of the 'mainland,' here they can get fresh meat partridges, and rabbit and cut their wood to haul out to their summer island homes. There are NO trees on the island, only scrubby pines whose growth has been stunted by the heavy gales that assail this coast. Our people are grand to work with; "hard- workers and real people whose sin- cerity and warmth make them a pleasure to live with. The stockings will go Into the bins to be sorted and cut, then they will be dyed and hooked into picture mats depicting the life here . . . men hauling their fish- ing nets; boats; gulls and mallard ducks; deer and dog teams. Purses and bags and finely hooked floor- mats, braided rugs and Poke Mats. They will all find a new nook to fit into and all will be put to use. Thank you again Brownies and Guides, keep up .the good work and enjoy life, it is very full! Sincerely yours, MARJORIE A. WHEELER. Beautiful Shades of Blue and Pink Chosen by Royal Party for Festival La igen London's most g ring season since 1939, femin- Ine eyes turn with interest to the wardrobes of the Royal Family, Women still discuss the exact shades of blue and pink worn by feminine members of the Royal Family at the official opening ceremony of the Festival of Brit- ain, held in St. Paul's Cathedral. Some say it was true delphinium, others hydrangea, lilac or hyacinth. All, however, agree that the Royal choice for the opening ceremony stressed the colors of the festival emblem -- pink and blue and the delicate cross shades pertaining to these colors, Clothing shops of all kinds, from hat shops to large departmental stores, are already playing up the festival colors, including gold. Seated in the cathedral the Royal party gave the impression of a blended floral display. The one outstanding difference in color, which only added to the floral theme, was the dress of Princess Elizabeth. She wore a beautiful shade of cypress green in a tailor- sd coat of silk faille. The dark sheen of the silk was likened jo the leaf of a young rose. Millinery Note Elizabeth did not, however, com- pletely desert the pink and blue. Her close-fitting Tudor-shaped hat was piped in moss rose "which loned with the ribbon backing the glittering diamond star of the prder of the Garter. The Queen's dress and caped jscket were a deep shade of del- phinium blue with fox fur, dyed to tone, dipping down the back. Her matching hat of cobweb straw was trimmed in feathers, and diamonds sparkled at her ears, wrists and in the great diamond star flashing under her cape. Seated next to Her Majesty, Queen Mother Mary wore a paler shade of blue with pink flowers in her traditional toque bonnet. Her soft grey fox collar matched the grey of her diamond-studded parasol. A full-skirted, tightly-waisted ribbed satin coat of pale blue shot with gray was the choice of Prin- cess Margaret. Worn over a hya- cinth-pink dress it gave a Dresden- china look that was accentuated by the bolt-upright hyacinth decorat- ing her crochet straw hat, Another truant from the blue and pink was the Duchess of Kent. Under a coat of snuff-grown faille she wore a champagne-colored apron-fronted silk dress and her close-fitting hat had pale fawn feathers flecked with yellow. Her daughter, the young Princess Alex- andra, wore a schoolgirl's coat of kingfisher blue over a straw-colored dress. HOUSEHOLD HINT An old whisk broom trimmed to a sharp V point makes a fine reacher for dusting hard-to-get-at couch corners, floor corners and the depths of easy chairs. Keep it clean or it will just re-distribute dust. Shake it when you have fin- ished dusting, wash in good soap- suds, rinse and hang up to dry, ready for the next use.

Fashion Flashes EXQUISITE evening dresses will highlight important events, come Summer. A beauty is of pale pink lace that falls in a filagreed over- skirt on a bouffant skirt of layers and layers of black nylon net. The overskirt curves down to deep points in back, curves up to the front and is scalloped. The lace bodice, snug and strapless, is heavily embroidered with . tiny iridescent sequins. LR CRASHING the Summer fur field is fox in various shades and mutations. Original and charming is a rope stole of pastel pink fox. And there is a bolero of the same pink-dyed fox, the fur set on bands of finely pleated pale pink silk chiffon. * ob LITTLE EXTRAS are with us this year to transform dresses and suits. For instance, a dress of black silk faille--a sheath with a deep, square-cut top -- is pretty enough on its own, just trimmed with rhinestone button ornaments. For street wear a triangle cape buttons to the rhinestone trim, . BE. NE A BOON to Summer stay-at- homes or travelers is the softly tailored robe . of puckered sheer that requires no ironing and does not wrinkle when packed. Fabrics are cotton or sheer nylon tricot, and many are trimmed with white pique. A preettv coat in navy or turquoise blue nylon sheer is trimmed with bands of cotton lace medallions. * % NO MATTER what type of hat is being promoted, women go on de- manding the bonnet because of its softening flattery. Perido straw braid makes a rippled brim bonnet, edged at either side with pink to mauve-blue lilacs and softened with a sheer veil and under-the- chin tie of matching pale pink veiling. * PERFECT for almost all types i3 the color combination of gray and pink. It is effectively used for a beautiful evening dress of pink taffeta veiled with pale gray lace, combined with pleated net in skirt insets and bodice "fans." * + * PRETTY ACCENTS beautify charming little silk,suits and two- piecers for Spring and Summer wear, Silk shantung in various colors is used for a pretty suit, the snug jacket with scalloped front and scalloped, high-rising collar. It is curved to a cutaway below the waist and the bracelet sleeves have very narrow, pointed cuffs, Slit skirt is slim. > + » PRETTY PARTY dresses abound just now for pretty young things, cream colored silk taffeta, printed in a tiny stylized leaf and stem de- sign, makes up into a dress with a deep oval neckline, sleeves that are puffed and tucked, and a full skirt that radiates from a slim waistline. > + * NEW WAYS with print designs mark the latest offerings from im- portant houses. Designs are small and neat, but definitely striking and colorful, White silk crepe, with a design of latticed red and black bows in crossbars, makes up into a good afternoon print. Black velvet bows pull through the bodice drape- folds to form an extended V neck- line, * + » ENDORSED by some of the most fashion-conscious women on both sides of the Atlantic, the longer tunic suit is slated for more popu- lar promotion, come fall.

Woollens Admired by the Queen To Be Seen In Toronto Trade Fair By MURIEL NARRAWAY Canadian Press Staff Writer London--(CP)--At the Interna- tional Trade Fair in Toronto, start- ing May 28, Canadian women will be able to view some of the ma- terials that drew Royal attention at the British Industries Fair and the Festival of Britain. For instance, they may see a 60- foot-high stand of wool textiles that drew praise from the Queen at the Fair. She told manufacturers it was a splendid idea to group ex- hibits on one massive stand, since viewing was made so much easier. The Queen was interested in the fineness of the light-weight wools, some of which weighed only four ounces. Before leaving she congratu- lated the trade on its achievements in the export markets. Queen Mother Mary, dressed in a grey fur-collared coat and char- acteristic toque, examined a textile pattern book and requested that a copy be sent to Marlborough House, her London residence. With his love of tv-eeds, the king was interested in a display of Scot- tish Glenurquharts and the royal party, as always, showed special in- terest in the tartans. Seek Best Fabrics Manufacturers find that despite the rise in prices, overseas buyers still seek wool fabrics. Overseas interest is espesially directed towards the "country" tweeds of Scottish origin and the Scottish "finespuns" in which the Queen delights. The finespuns are made at Auchentroig Castle, a half- hour run from Glasgow, and the 12 looms are worked by a staff of dis- abled war veterans, Among others, there are haqpsack velours, face- cloths, naps and featherweight saxonies. In Edinburgh, visitors can tour a store in Princes Street where a "confined" line of Orkney home- spuns draws much attention, Edin- burgh buys the entire yearly out- put of the Orkney crofters, all 150 pieces. shows a 'Jacket cut on riding habit lines the line flaring to the side- back, where there is a vent. Skirt is also slit at the side-back. Jacket has notched revers, flapped pockets, and fastens with smoke pearl but- tons, It is black taffeta lined. +* * A FAVORITE with suit addicts is the blouse of organza or silk gauze with a bow-tied neckline. LE A A STANDOUT in the current coat crop is a wrap-around, modi- fied pyramid coat that is reversible. One side is pink wool fleece; the other is deep-blue silk and wool ottoman. Contrasting tuxedo front and turnback cuffs are possible at the wearer's whim. ob» DOTTED HERE AND THERE, at smart gatherings is the dress of wool lace--simply fashioned, but most effective, Very delicate white wool lace, in a popcorn stitch, is used for a simple sheath--ankle- length--with scoop neck and short sleeves, and cinched with a narrow belt of velvet and pearl discs. With it a matching lace stole with tiny ball-fringed ends. ; LE COMING IN again is green, not in all ranges, but in forest shades and particularly in lemony or chart- reuse greens, . Other fabrics that drew overseas comment at the B.IF. and the Festival of Britain are the fine cot- ton weaves, so light in weight and finish they can be classed as luxury materials. Many are processed for crease resisting and the floral pat- terns are bright and colorful.

HOUSEHOLD HINT If you are troubled with ants, they can be repelled by sprinkling pyrethrum powder in their paths, dusting it over the window sills, around baseboards, etc. Pyrethrum powder should be renewed fre- quently, and if you use poisoned bait against an infestation of ants, don't use the family kitchen uten- sils for mixing this bait. Use old, discarded utensils or buy very cheap ones to be used just for that purpose. ander Davidson, of Oshawa, took as his bride, June Marie Burnside, of London, Ontario, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Burnside, of Oshawa and London.
