Donald Pinder of Whitby en- | bo: Ireland, Scotland Bring Much Pleasure 'To Oshawa Travellers | -- According to the latest word re- ceived Mr. and Mrs. T. K. Creigh- | ton are now touring on the con- | tinent, having sailed from England to Ostend, Belgium on Sunday. They both thoroughly ° enjoyed their visit to Ireland. "They took trips to Killarney, Belfast, Dublin and the Giant's Causeway, pausing briefly in many of the quaint little villages. Back in England they explored | the lake district staying overnight | at the famous Langdale Pike, among the hills of Lake Windermere. Wordsworth's cottage ond Grass- mere were also included in their itinerary, and from {here they head- ed north to Carlisle. They pushed on to Ayr where they saw Burns' cottage and the many interesting relics in the musewm. They found Loch Lomond just as beautiful as the song says, and lingered at the Bridge of Allan, a village on the Tay River, Stirling Castle and Perth came next with sightseeing at the Wallace memor- fal and a brief stop at Couper Angus. Of Edinburgh Mrs. Creighton writes: "This is a glorious city--the best of all. We hated to leave Scot- land and, just before we crossed the border we visited Abbotsford, Sir Walter Scoit's home, Melrose, Dry- burgh and Jedburgh Abbeys. We all purchased tweed for suits, the cloth for which was made in Ha- wick, "We are seeing and doing so much that the time is slipping along much more quickly than we realize, and I still cannot believe that, we are so far away from Osh- awa." Regina Depicted In Terrazzo Floor Regina--(CP)--When Joy Sun- deen was a resident of the Richard- son, Sask. district, her friends of- ten received letters in which most of the news was depicted by clever drawings. Joy now is a 1950 graduate in architecture of the University of Manitoba and hopes to become a licensed architect after completing further exa ations. Working for a Regina firm, her drawings and ideas have paid off. The proprietor of a marble, tile and terrazzo company asked for a floor design, which would be em- blematic of his trade. e job was assigned to Joy. The work called for a suitable design for the. floor of the front office which would include 70 Kinds of terrazzo, or marble chips. Miss Sundeen chose the map of Regina for the design. Various blocks are set out in the varied terrazzos, including a few buildings, the railway with a miniature train complete with smoke, the airport, Wascana lake and creek bed, and --a touch of humor, In one section is the emblem of the te-laying trade, a little man with a trowel on a partly-com- pleted floor. There is another little man enjoying a meal from a lunch X. 'This was purely ' accidental," Miss Sundeen explained. "I was doodling when I drew the second little man and when the proprietor saw my work, he insisted that it be included." : Most of the terrazzo chips were shipped in 100-pound bags from the United States. But a few were from Italy and two were from Canada, There is red verona, named from the Italian district from which 'it comes; Georgia white from the State of Georgia; verda antique, which is green color; Belgian black; red levante, a red and green mixture; k Tennessee, and bot- ticino, which" is cream. # La i b 54 ~ OF INTEREST TO The Bride Signs the Register | £ 3 MR.

Wilson of Toronto is a travelling saleswoman in a man's job. She started work as a secretary for a Toronto floor covering com- pany five years ago. Learning the business inside out, she was so successful with the public in com- pany show-rooms that she was made a representative. Now she's a travelling sales- woman selling floor coverings and her first trip west was full of unusual features for her. It marked the first time she ever travelled. It was the first time she ever sold the company's products outside of home show- rooms. It was the first time the company ever ventured into the western market. Despite the worries of finding her way around -strange cities, overcoming a touch of loneliness during the evenings, and learning to give men a little time to re- cover from the shock of a female travelling salesman, Miss Wilson likes her job. A minor drawback is carrying around a 20-pound sample case, but her aching shoulder soon got used to that. A big point in her favor, Miss Wilson feels, is that in the matter of floor coverings, a woman often has sounder ideas than -a man. WANTED!

Of furs themselves there are 250 varieties, collected from all parts of the world. A section devoted to the dressing and dyeing of skins gives an idea of the intricacy of the work. The processing of one fur such as "beaver lamb" for instance is practically an industry in itself. Women visitors especially are attracted by a stand where a craftsman cuts mink into narrow strips. Nine thousand cuts are made in the 70 to 100 skins used to make a full-length mink coat, and eight to 10 miles of cotton thread are used. Magnificent coats of mink and sable are on view, not far from an exhibit of ancient craftsmen's tools dug out of the soil of historic London. These include a scraper of flint dating from 2000 or 3000 and the "Trim Your Hat" contest, | B.C HOUSEHOLD HINTS With small children in the home, a box containing the following ma- terials is suggested for rainy days only, to keep them amused and happy. Elunt scissors for cut- out work; squares of colored and white paper in assorted sizes: col- ored wax crayons; coloring bonks. Old greeting cards to be used for cutouts, a small package of model- ing clay; empty spools; bright old buttons; colored wool yarns; blunt- nosed, large-eyed darning needle; lightweight blocks; jigsaw puzzles with large outlines. Pressing a pleated skirt is easier if you hold the pleats down with a cord attached to a heavy weight, such as a bottle. Slip the cord over the ironing board and arrange pleats flatly under it.
