When a house is small a problem usually arises about the decorating, So often you hear the owner of such a house easy that it always looks cluttered or it doesn't lgok gracious because '1- is small. ir Usually the reason that a small house doesn't look gracious is not because it is small but because it is badly decorated. You see you have to follow the right rules for decorating a small house. One of the most common Mis- takes is to make a brand new and different scheme for each roam. It is thought that by doing this you will save the house from monotony. Actually, doing this will only ach- ieve a cluttered, cut-off feeling, In order to create tasteful decor- ating in a small home you have to do some careful blending.

The batiste which has scored aim ha .success, in wash- and-wear dresses, for instance, is now on yard goods counters in an array of prints and, plain shades, Sewing with a man-made fibre calls for a slight variation in the usual sewing technique. Here are a few pointers: The thread and bindings used should be chosen so they will have the same wash-and-wear qualities as the fabric. Use terylene thread - and shrinkproof seam binding so there will be no danger of seams puckering in the wash. Test the machine tension on a scrap of fabric. It may have to be loosened slightly. Make sure the needle is sharp—a jagged edge will snag the exceedingly strong fibres in the fabric. * ;JEWELLERY ** CRYSTAL - * ENW311 UIIINA EIAFERMIPHk*S FALL FINN a a EWELLERYI lasts longer in pictures ... take some this weekend Stoplierq-, r Kodak 'Film ,and Finishing This is• your opportunity to stocic up on PHONE 200 WING.HArvi.

Some of these are local and some were of world-wide import- ance. The following is her account of them. • In.theyears before Wingham had a high school, Bluevale students had either Clinton or Listowel to choose from as a seat of higher learning. Bluevale students chose Listowel. because of convenient train service. The Palmerston-Kin- cardine line could deposit its pas- sengers at •Listowel in time for Monday morning classes, and re- tern them home on the 10 o'clock Friday night. Members of the Bailey, Elliott, Messer and Duff families, of Blue- vale, were among the scholars. Lis- towel high school's third annual field day was held on Friday, 'Oc- tober 129th, 1894, one of those glor- ious autumn days of bright sun- shine. .0n returning home, the Bluevale group reported the shocking story of the brutal mueder of Jessie Kieth at the hands of a, tramp as she walked the railroad track to her home in Elma Township,. Telephone in rural districts were almost unknown then, (Alexander Graham Bell's first telepohne call was sent from Bantford to Paris on June and, 18751, and so it was that the criminal was not caught for several days, when a police officer found him begging food at a farm house. He was arrested and taken to Stratford jail where he was charged, tried and on March 28, 1895, condemned to be hanged on Friday, May 31, 1895. According to • the Stratford Beacon-Herald it Was the first hanging in Perth County, The murderer was Amede Chat- Celle, of St. Hyacinthe, Quebec. In the summer of 1894, the Illus- trated London Weeklies and other British periodicals displayed in the windows of George Mason and Alec Ross, of Wingham, carried news of another tragedy, this time one of international concern, Monsieur 'Francois Carina, president of the French Republic, .was assassinated at Lyons, France, by an Italian anarchist. We were fascinated by tha large portraits of this hawk- nosed gentleman of elegent coiffure and dress and his plump, dimpled beauty of a wife, shown on the .front pages of the overseas journ- als, The same year, Russia was in a. period of great unrest and violence. The anarchists, predecessors of the I3Olsheviks, were in- revolt against the Czars and all that Imperialism stood' for. Forerunners of the an- archists were a group known as the nihilists, who had their begin- nings in the 1880's, On November 1st, 1891„ Czar Alexander III died' from the results 'of a train wreck caused by a nihilist's -obaab.. In Janie, 1804, there was barn at Whitelodge, Richmond, the Royal 13034 who later wore the British Ctaava for eleven months, in 1930, and who abdicated for the woman he loved, This event was biter ..cle- aetibed by his brother, George VI, as a ease without parallel hi lati- tiSh, history. arise; guaranteed income to help you enjoy your retirement years.
