Photo by R.H. Women's Column BY MARY GUEST es -- One of riry minor vices is reading the more expensive type of "homes" magazines. You know them—the lavishly illustrated and intellectually presented' magazines chock-full of lush advertising that come up from the south. Invariably they depict luxurious million -dollar homes complete with air, -conditioning, light -conditioning and built-in glamorous housewife: • Where other -'folk read "True Confessions" or "Dead -Eye Dick's Last Stand," I squander my husband's hard-earned dollars to wallow in these wasteful magazines. I know that - I will never even see the inside of one, but like Thurber's moth I will keep setting my sights on the distant star. It was, therefore, with great sorrow that I perused this month's issue of a magazine which will be nameless. Re- cently this magazine has brought (me and millions of optimists like me) glimpses of the beauty wrought by Frank Lloyd Wright and his contemporaries—beautiful houses, designed to be functional, and in their functions, beautiful. Houses with a wealth of rich and exotic furnishings, easy to maintain and almost impossible to soil. Now, all this beauty and spatial grandeur has gone out the picture window and what are we offered instead? A return to the nauseous "pretti- ness" of the twenties. They doll it up as a "New. Era of Romanticism" and there is much talk of "spaces enriched with Mender columns and delicate arches, the mystery of areas half seen, of light pierced and broken with- beautiful forms." Poppycock! Balderdash and .again Poppycock! You can see the prototype of . their "slender columns and delicate arches" in any mass-produced 'house. ,pi the..:.t venli.ess- It -is net six sheaths ai. -these-same-experts were advising dome -owners to "tear out the ugly, and obsolete_arghwayj" iia thatr }tin _._. .and rn.itAr sofa' ` vdite-race - _b _. Come, come, gentlemen—do not take us for, fools. The only reason we have not bought your advertisers' beautiful but expensive furnishings is that we simply do not have enough money. We liked them, yes, but -they cost too much. We do not need a synthetic romanticism or a veneer of poetic licence to make usibuy. When you talk spinelessly of "poetry and imaginative individuality in our homes" you are straying from the straight and narrow path of functional beauty on to the primrose path of easy- money. Because we bought, it in 192 -vve wllT l3tly it again noW-7-Ru isfil We irked what you were offering before, it was honest and unpretentious. When we have enough money (there goes that optimism again) we will buy from your advertisers, just give us time. In the meantime, let us not be lured into talk of arch- ways and marble floors and filigree walls. I wonder how you would keep a filigree wall clean without an inexhaustible sup- ply of expendable slaves, anyway? It does seem to me that whenever we look backwards for our inspiration our designs become feeble and puerile. Perhaps it is significant that - at a time when the, fashion moguls are frantically trying to make us "crew-cut" our hair, Ile so-called "better" magazines can only offer us the bana- lities of yesteryear. All I can say is that if these magazines continue to harp on this distressing retreat from the functionally beautiful then I for one shall not only NOT buy their advertisers' products—I shall not buy their magazines either. See you next week! C.W.L. Reviews Its Work Of Past Year Kinsmen. Club's Trade Fair To Be Field At Agricultural Park August 8 to 11 Goderich Area Planning Board has recommended to Town Coun- cil that Earl Rawson be appointed to the board to replace Walter Westbrook, Who has moved, to Kingsville.

It is 'the opinion of the town's insurance advisors that there is no evidence of negligence on the part of the 'munici-pa.lity. Mrs. Bone said in a letter that she tripped over a rope attached to the waist of a small boy, who ran across the sidewalk in front of her. The other end of the rope was tied to a door -knob.
