A Woman's Viewpoint on This and That
By MBA
AUTUMN has come, albeit
most of us wonder what has
happened to the usual months
of summer weather, which really
didn't materialize this year . .
After• possibly one of the most
wretched weeks the Canadian
weatherman has ever delivered,
the warmer, brighter days of this
week are no Ionger summer, but
have that tangy autumn feel in
the air, and the leaves are be-
ginning to fell
EVENTS of the autumn season
have begun St. Paul's Ang-
lican Church held its annnual
Harvest Festival Sunday last .. .
Ever since coming to Clinton,
we always look forward to this
special service The gracious
old' church decorated with aut-
umn flowers' and the fruits of, the
harvest impress us more each
year as a most suitable setting
' to give thanks for . the greatest
of all God's gifts .

OTHER churches are holding
their anniversary services -the
Baptists, last Sunday and On-
tario St. United Church will
have its anniversary this Sun-
day...
o „ e.
THE Hospital Aia opened its
fall activities, the week we were
away, thus no formal report-
' because that is our job ... How-
ever, when talking to the presi-
dent, Mrs. F. Fingland, we learn-
ed that plans were made to hold
' a nurses' graduation about t h e
'middle of October . . This is
the first graduation ceremony in
two years and three girls will
be honored on this occasion
It is to be held in Wesley-Wi.)l.is
United Church

AND Autumn, too, turns wom-
en's thoughts away from can-
ning and other late sunnner jobs,
to what is new in the fashion
world .. . Wool jersey and vel-
vet seem to be the predominant
fabrics , . Jersey is a special
favorite -either as a casual tail-
ored dress or as blouse and skirt
seperates, the latter sometimes
both the same color or with con-
trasting colors . .
* :Y • *
SCARFS play an important
bit part in this season's fashion
story . They knot themselves
around the necks of sweaters and
jerseys and brighten casual wool
dresses . . Velvet, often teamed
with another fabric, is the fash-
ion in late day and evening
dresses . . ,

Mr. Millar was discharged as
a 'paraplegic from Lyndhurst

of an aid from crutches and a
wheelchair fhe young man has
built up a travel, and ticket ag-
ency, as well as writing a col-
umn in the Kitchener Record of
coming events in Kitchener and
Waterloo.
Mr. Millar has the agency for
over 30 air lines in various parts
of the world, handles travel ar-
rangements for several industries
in the area, including hotel re-
servations, represents an Ameri-
can hotel chain, has the agency
for a bus line, and sells tickets
for all the big musical and other
