The Wingham Advance Times, 1928-07-05, Page 2i+t WINGIiAM- ADVANCE-TXMES OF Tis more than mere pride of possession that suffuses the owner of the New,' Olds- mobile Six . . it is the thrill of achieve- ment, of the realization of a long -cherished ambition. This new Oldsmobile is in every sense a fine car . a car of vivacious and sophisticated beauty . a car of sound, uncompromising quality. Into its development have gone the skill and resources of General Motors engineers, mil- lions of miles of testing on the General Motors Proving Ground, the artistry and craftsmanship of Fisher body builders. Evidences of this inherent quality greet the Oldsmobile owner the moment he steps into his car . and become increasingly appar- ent as months and miles slip smoothly Vicar+;, The new Oldsmobile high -compression engine. delivers its .55 horse -power without the use of special fuels. The insulated chassis and silenced interiors add to Oldsmobile's un- mistakable atmosphere of luxury. Such special refinements as Lovejoy Hydraulic Shock -absorbers, radiator shutters, richly etched instrument panel and restful pad -type accelerator still further iiacrease the pleasures of owning and driving. Not without reason has Oldsmobile been termed "The Fine Car of Low Price." Not without justification have critics said, "You can buy a bigger car but not a better one."

CALL 271 FOR TRUCK SERVICE`, OPEN SATURDAY EVENINGS a T a a a (By Dorothy Dix,) SHOULD FORBID. ,GIRLS TO WED BEFORE AGE OF as (By Gertrude Atherton) I am opposed to censorship in form that curtails the : liberty rof telligent adults, but the maxi human. happiness Would be Mere if there were an unwritten social forbidding girls to marry , say fore the age of 22, No girl under age knows sufficient to'know own mind. She may be bright, cl and even highly intelligent, but natural gift takes - the place of perience. I fix the marriage age at for several reasons.'In the first p1 it gives a girl time to exhaust the responsible pleasures of youth bef assuming the responsibilities of n rimony, heavy at best, By 22 she be ready to settle down. A girl by no 'means reached complete men maturity at 22, but she is at least years older in experience and orie tion than when. she left the scho room. The younger a girl, the mo abject a' victim she is to the me urge of the race, With every generation girls older than' their predecessors at t same age., We hear so much seas tional criticism of the'flapper tod that we have.leaped to the co, nclusi that never before was there 'anvthi in the' world like hex. Yet the Sam horrified criticism, of girls has gree ed every - generation of girls since t first grandmother announced passio ately: "In my days such things we unheard of," So wise and .hard an calculating is the young girl of toda that she has a far ,better prospect.o making a success in life than any gen eration- of girls in the 'past. At 22 she will be wiser and older than her mother was at that age. Nevertheless, in spite of her precocity xi at , she is by no, means wise enough to select her mate because no amount of precocity can take . the place of that positive experience that years a- lone . can give, In' 'the unfettered 'in- timacy that now prevails , between girls and young men, surely; no young girl no matter how romantic, can,. have any illusions regarding the male by the. time she has entered heir twenties. And illusions are the very worst preparation for matrimony. Then if a girl marries at 22 she. has developed character sufficient to bring up her children properly. The three essentials for success in life are intelligence, character and poise, and not the least of these in poise. But if it is not acquired early in life, 'it is'apt to be lacking alto- gether and sooner or later ,will neut- ralize and affect the other two, A woman may have her three or even five children before she is well, into her thirties, and. froth that time on she- may 'have as many recurring youths as she demands. Certainly she will find a far deeper. capacity for in- telligent enjoyment of life than in those callow years when her sense of values was nil. With all the arts, simple and scien- ti`fic, known to all women' today, she will have preserved the appearance of youth—all healthy and sane women - invariably look ten years younger than their age—and. there is a far greater satisfaction in. looking than, in •merely being young. "Felling young", depends entirely on health 'and a liv- ely mind, and 'today the resources of women are infinite, anyin- numin- mt ased law be - that her ever no ex,- 22 ace ir- ore iat- rvill has. tal ten nt- ol re re are he a - ay on ng e t- he n - re d V f HAVING A PICNIC? A picnic if carefully planned, is a delightful form of celebration, How- ever, it should be held in some quiet, shaded spot, not too far away to be reached in a short time. The place ought to be investigated to make sure that it is not infested with mesqutioes or other obnoxious insects, and that a good water supply in near by. It is best to use paper cloths, nap- kins, cups and plates and, either tin or paper forks which may be easily disposed of afterward. A lunch which is not difficult to prepare ,for a large group and which is a little out of the ordinary might. consist of a whole baked ham, cold; either potato salad, or potato chips; raisin, nut, pineapple, cream :cheese. and jelly sandwiches; pickles, radish- es and olives; len-toilette or bottled beverages like ginger ale and grape juice; t -ice cream and wafers. a' Gaines ought to be arranged so that _11thecompany will not be bored even Mi for a few minutes.

Will be at Chautauqua, Tuesday afternoon, July zgth, needle workers busy is followed now by the revival of quilting. This work appears on chair and couch cushions, and foot throws for the chaise longue, lounging robes, pin cushions and even in sport hats. As is usually the case in revivals, the originals are improved upon by more intricate work and richer mat- erials. The simplicity of the quilting technique and its ease in making is a reason, maybe for its popularity. There are many of the old, pattern used such as the sun flower, the ev ening star, 'hearts and flowers, sta and. crescent, hollow squares and th rose bush.. Among the many imoder patterns the cubist figures and.th colonials are going strong, Some of the daintiest of the new quilts have a petal edge trimmin that gives, then', finish, The petals are' made ley cuttiny pointed bits of silk four 'inches long and the top is gathered, to half 'the width. before it is set between flee lining and top. of the edge' of, the quilt to be stitched in ,place. In. other quirts there are nar- row ruffles, used as a finish,. In some of the more expensive ones fine lace is gathered. in with the ruffle which forms a sort of 'background to accen tuate the. pattern.. Quilting' by the yard may be had for trimming sport coats, negligees and even bathing suits, Porch cush- ions are semi -quilted on account. of the necessity for frequent laundering. The top is quilted qu an unbleached lining and. fitted over a made pillowof desirable size'' that may be easily removed. and put back again for the laundering process.
