Caroline Bedard, Debbie Bedard, Joanne Webb and Lynne Schwartzentruber looked like ladies and gentlemen out of an- other century in their mauve and yellow costumes fashioned along tra- ditional lines. SHADES OF THE 20s — Miss Cheryl Stade is all set for a day at the beach in her daring bath- ing suit from about 1920. This one was lively green with black polka dots and fe* turei ho • bloomers, a sassy knee-length top tied with a sash, a matching cap to protect, xnilday's hair P. quaint parasol to keep her nose from burning. While nothing quite like this is seen on +he 1. these days, we can understand why outfits like this would be all the rage with young girls of that era. SATIN, VELVET AND LACE — Rich tour- quoise velvet, shimmering pink satin and stunning black lace combined to make this exquisite ball gown and evening wrap modelled by.Miss Sue Anne Coxon at last week's fashion show, sponsored by the Zurich Guides. Show convenor Mrs. Carol Deitz said the ladies of 1867 who wore this fashion used various accessories and ideas to change the pattern each time they sewed it. This dress was one of several costumes rented for the evening. SISTER ACT — Catherine and Susan Parke, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Ken Parke demonstrated some fancy footwork at the fashion show last week when the girls performed a lively step -dance. Al- though young in years, the girls danced with the same vigor as the predecessors who kicked a heel and tapped a toe at the sound of any fiddle music. Step -dancing, still a popular pastime for some folks who enjoy western and old-time music, has always been a custom in this particular area of Canada.

I SAY OLD CHAP — Lance Reed and Jerome Sweeney cut a pair of handsome figures when they donned 1867 suits for the World of Fashion show last week. We are informed that these outfits feature the Prince Albert coat styling seen here with wide cravats and: top hats.. Only pro- fessional men such as bankers wore this type of garb we are told — but Lance and Jerome look mighty dap- per, we think. STs JOSEPH and DF YSDALE Alfred Ducharme, Correspondent Word was received by Mrs. Raymond Denomme, of this parish, of the death of her brother, Mr. LaRouche, from Timmins, Ontario, end in tomn- pany with Mr. and Mrs. Leo Ducharme, of Detroit, they left the latter part of last week to attend the funeral. Due to stormy weather, bad roads and what all there were no visitors that we know of, No one wanted to take a chance on travelling miles away from home not knowing if they would have a safe return or not re- turn eat all. By the time this is in print the blustry month of February will have passed on and no one will regret its passing. Mr. and Mrs. Donald Du- charme, of the Blue Water south, motored to Goderich on Thursday last to visit with the latter's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Harold Siemon, of that town. On Saturday last was the worst storm of the winter, when visibility was nil, motorists were asked to keep •off the highways. For the rural peo- ple it meant no mail delivery which was wise of thecarriers. No bread truck to deliver bread to their customers and no milk delivery to those in need of milk. ?or those who were not too far from St. Joseph, the Burgess store management gave to needy ones bread, milk, etc.,. to carry thein over the storm. It was like imposing on the Burgesses to deliver the orders they had received, but to give the necessary help they found a way to deliver the ordered goods. The Burgess manage- ment was to be complimented for their generosity to their many customers, who were all grateful. Beards Popular For a change in face and head styles man changes twice in a century. This centennial year we find that man has re- vived again the long hair style and as well the bearded face. Those styles and changes have existed since the creation of man and will perhaps go on to the end of time. There is noth- ing out of the way for man is master of himself. When do- ing personal changes it ell means to keep in line with the changing world of today. Naturally you could not ex- pect all the man population to fall for that. The growing of long hair and a bearded face has its good points, It helps to keep the face warm during the cold winter months. Also long hair keeps the head warm with always the same temperature. That, too, is a good point, There are also other good points to it, the barber bill involved for hair trimming, or shaving off the daily growth„ and time host during it work, The business man will find much time saved each day and besides the expense involved in going through the process of a daily trim, he stands a chance to be the winner of a prize. Of course all was not rosy for the young pian to embark on that venture, for some they did not meet with the approval of their lady. Most of them gave their consent on the grounds if hubby won the prize they could participate in the winnings. _ Miladies who in the past had formed the custom of giving their husbands a send-off kiss when they left for work must be more careful today and that due to the growing bread which will sting their smooth face. Some ladies think that hubby may fall for the idea of long hair and bearded face, if so it could cause some friction be- tween the one-time peaceful wife and husband. Let us hope the bearded husband will prove his innocence when he has com- pleted the service time for growing beards. --0 ZURICH LADIES' LEAGUE Aces, W Erb ---.___ 529 0 30 Hilites, L V'deburg_ 689 7 104 U �c Downs, S Braid_ 624 7 81 P P'ers, M Campbell 530 0 37 Starlites, M Rader__ 767 7 141 Scamps, C Erb 531 0 46 Packers, L Rader 663 7 131 D'aires, G Marcell - 641 0 96 H Gals, B Zie11 560 0 50 N Hawks, 1) Eless . 597 7 124 1I single: II, McEwan _._.__.. 335 H triple: E.
