PAGE EIGHT THE DAILY T IMES-GAZETTE WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1951 V dn Jhe dome Oshawa Weavers Renew Enthusiasm With Course in U.S. Miss Mary Andrews, Craft Secre- tary, YWCA accompanied by Miss Margaret Wyman attended recently the 15th National Conference of American Handweavers held in the Bausch Museum, Rochester, New York. 2 The course was based on lectures and demonstrations which were held from 9 o'clock in the morning till 5 o'clock in the afternoon with one period for ¢doing hand weaving on the table looms provided. In the evening there were special lectures concerni fabrics of the Orient, owns ogg Mexico and Guate- mala, and handwoven coverlets, In connection with the latter there was an excellent display of cover- lets from which the Rochester Guild members had done much work by taking actual drafts from woven pieces. the one of the evenings a Style Show was held in which Miss Wy- man modelled a stunning red and gold short-sleeved evening blouse with a black felt skirt and Miss Andrews wore 'a coat of her own weaving. Other models included capes, drndl skirts, dresses, stoles and suits. } Among other interests was bled students to see the weav- Fh of 'other members and the sell- ing qualities of the goods. In con- nection with this M: ews had the honor of having one of her samples denoting a new weave re- tained as a permanent sample and record of the conference. : Another highlight was a televis- jon show called "The Romance of Thread," which the students were privileged to attend and which showed the instructors actually do- ing some phase of spinning or weaving, in which they were spec- jalists. The group was also privil- eged to tour the Rochester Institute of Technology, where weaving is one of the courses; and the American School of Craftsmen. Both of these proved excellent from a set-up point of view and also from the finished pieces of work on display. A visit was also made to the George Eastman Muséum where photography from its birth to the present-day excellence was demon- strated. } In summing up it was felt by Miss Andrews and Miss Wyman that American weaving may be termed the mood of the moment due to the fact that they utilize wheat stalks, strips of plastic, bullrush leaves, strips of copper screening, place mats and in some cases they use a great deal of metallic thread. There is a much larger market for handweaving in America than in Canada and it was noticeable that most of the weaving done in Amer- ica was cotton and linen and very little wool was used. Miss Andrews and Miss Wyman were guests at the Rochester YWCA whioh has recently been op- ened and is regarded as the best in the country with swimming pool, bowling alleys, auditorium and asium. Their rooms were ex- eeptionally well furnished and very pleasant in design and coloring. The course was in charge of Mrs. Osma Gallinger, of Michigan, editor of the Shuttleservice Weaving mag- azine and Correspondence Courses in Weaving and Fabric Darning, assisted by several specialists in weaving technique. There were 43 students attending the conference, six of whom were from Canada the others from Tex- as, New York, Michigan, Pennsyl- vania, Indiana, Kansas, Wisconsin, Ohio and New Jersey. Women Curlers Meet For Summer Socials The social activities of the Osh- awa Ladies' Curling Club were not suspended with the close of the curling season. In July, the ladies, along with their families, were guests of Mr. and Mrs, Fred Mc- Brien at Lynbrook Park. The out- ing took the form of a picnic, fol- lowed by games and contests. On Monday of this week the Ladies' Curling Club accepted the invitation of Mrs. A, P. Taylor to be her guests at her cottage at Cedarbeach, on Lake Simcoe. About twenty members spent a most en- Joyable day at what has come to be considered an annual event. Luncheon was served at noon. Fol- lowing this, the guests were at lib- erty to spend the afternoon as they wished. Some played cards, others croquet, and a few energetic souls strolled through the neighboring area, admiring the various gardens. At four o'clock, several members of the Beaverton Ladies' Curling Club joined the group, along with a few of Mrs. Taylor's neighbors, and afternoon tea was served on the lawn. With curling chat dominat- ing 'the conversation, the next hour brought to a close a very pleasant day. A baby is the best-judge of when he is strong enough to stand and to take his first few steps.
