Onward Group Sponsors Delightful Fashion Show Correspondent HARMONY -- Last night, the Onward group of Harmony United Church sponsored a Fashion Show. It was held in the auditorium of Harmony School, and enjoyed thor- oughly by a very large audience. The models in this "Tot's an Teens" Fashion Show were all Harmony children, and to say that they stole the show is putting it mi 1dly. ad of welcome was given by Mrs. Ronald Ogden, leader of the group, as she called for two min- utes silence in tribute to the late Queen Mary. Gay flower-boxes filled with flow- ering plants, and baskets of daffo- dils, set the scene for this timely Spring Show. A runway, extending part way down into the room, was gaily festooned with green and yellow crepe paper, Miss Louise Thompson was the commentator. She soon had her dience in the proper mood, and show began. TOT CLOTHING First of all, the tiny tots came on. Most practical among the many and varied garments they wore, singly, and in pairs, were attractive corduroy overalls and T-shirts, in matched and mixed ensembles. A .new feature noted here was the "grow" waistline. Some of these small people paraded quite at their ease, walking demurely, not forget- ting to bow or curtsey. Others were shy and could hardly be Jermuaccd to come forward more a few steps.Some made very hasty exits, dashing off as if glad the job was over with. These were followed by children a little older, and so-on, until the teen-age group had been reached. These older models took more time showing off their fine clothes, but even some of these gave evi- dence of self - consciousness in ir stiff movements. But the au- dience loved every minute of it, and it would be hard to say which of the parents enjoyed it the most. One enthusiastic Dad caused quite a stir as a bulb exploded with a loud bang as he was taking flash pictures of his small daughter. She must have been expecting to be snapped, as she looked smil- ingly and expectantly in his dir COMING EVENTS ouses, Bloor St. & Sons, Flor- (72¢) . _ ANDREW'S day, March 27, at (72a) R GE SALE, ST.
