Montreal FORMALS ARE BALLET LENGTH Nearly all formals shown It I recent Fashion show were ballet tength or shorter —- with SKINS ranging from pcncil slim to a burst of fullness. A white nylon ballgown with drifting skirt was the floor-length exception and had a Volentine look under Sam- uelVSilver’s brief red moleskin bolero. Fresh flowers were used every- where throughout the show, with special emphasis on the new theme of the ‘single rose." Carna- tions. daisies and violets appear- ed as well — pinned on sleeves. tucked in waistlines. bunched on lapels. clustered at the neckline-— etc.—-to give a wonderfully fresh look to fashion. The ‘rose’ theme was carried to its perfect conclusion in the bridal group finale. The bride and two bridesmaids, wearing ballerina growns, carried muffs of pink roses and wore one rose It the neckline. The bride‘: gown was white lace over taffeta while the bridesmaids wore white organdy with tiny roses sewn to the under- skirt.

Just leave it to the ladies. In 1951 womcn‘s hats still pro- mise to be as startling as any- thing the atom boys can dream up. Come spring. for instance. wo- men the ivorid over will be of- fered the latest creation by lead- ing French Modiste Gilbert Orcel — the “flying saucer." It's not just one fantastic hat. lt's two huge flat berets, one piled on top of the other with the lower one protruding to form I peak. 0rcel‘s show recently featured all kinds of peaked berets, mushroom hat: with pork-pie crowns and bonnets with oval brims dipping to one side. The new decree on all of them seem- ed to be that they must. all be warn absolutely straight on the head. . “Flying saucer" Doi-med Some of Paris' choicest manne- quins floated through the show with the new creations. Foreign buyer: Iii-cady had previewed the collection and placed orders for next spring. The “flying saucer" lid was in black laize (artificial fine straw which can be bought by the yard). Another white satin eve- ning beret was covered with silk mesh and splattered with rhine- stqnea. Orcel also showed I bicorn with I pineapple colored stray brim, plastered over with tremendous white daisies. His -bonnet: have round crowns. sometimes pinched into two point with bvrims that develop from the aides like long ears slanting up one side and down the other. One puffy beret of green straw was treated to look like moss with I big bouquet of cornflowcrs springing out of the top.

Cornwlll. now in his 88th you. Mr. Inman was born in I log cabin at Argyle Shore where his father was engaged in fish- ing and farming. At the age of 15 Peter left school to help his Dad aboard their t.rl.rn little fishing craft. “The little fisherman," Is he was sometimes called, knew some- thing about sailing before then; having frequently joined the men when the fleet put out to gather the harvest of the sea. Once or twice when the ships had been caught in I had storm, young Peter had stood up and braced himself against the side of the boat. just like an old salt; and when she rode the crest of a large wave, or fell back into the trough of the foam, the boy would laugh heart- ily and exclaim “What jolly fun we are having." . . By the time Peter had turned 16. he was reckoned by all hands aboard to be I good sailor. “Some day." they added, “you'll be one of the best fishermen in the wat- era of the south shore.” The fact that he was intrusted with part of the tasks by his father. filled the boy's heart with pride. Speak- ing of those first experiences. In- man said: '‘‘I felt myself to be quite an important person, putting out to the fishing grounds was an old story; but now. I was taking an active part in the actual work. Once we'd reached the fishing grounds. we‘ baited our lobster pots and then sunk them in the water. In those days we used woden traps, several feet long. and often rectangular in shape. some- times they were shaped like a half- moon. the flattened part being the bottom of the trap. Across one end of the pot, we stretched a net, while in the centre of the pot,-we called it the parlor — hung the bait. The lobster crawl- ed through an opening in the net. to get at the bait; he never came out again on his own." "How were the catches in those days?" I queried. “And the price per pound?" "Lcbstcrs then were very num- erous." continued Mr. Inman. "In- deed, they were almost unlimit- ed. Sometimes the fishing fleet took so many in a single day that] the factory was gluttcd and we'd be obliged to leave the boats at anchor until conditions became normal. I I I “Now about the price, the fish- ermen received the vast sum of 50c per hundred pounds of live lobsters — that is, during those first years I was in the business: later, the price advanced as the catches grew smaller. We never kept any lobsters that were not pretty well grown. We didn't have to bother with the small fry as there were plenty of large ones to be bad. Some of the big fellows weighed Is much as 12 pounds. "Besides catching them in traps, we used to hunt 'em under the rocks along the shore. when the tide was out. ‘Rock fishing’ as we termed it, often yielded good re- turns. We'd drag the big fellows out with a stick or a fork and then toss ‘cm into a cart to be hauled to the factory." “Does a lobster shed its shell every year?" I ventured, "or is that just another fable?" “Not. every year," replied the retired fisherman. “But they do shed their shells every year for several seasons, then they retain the casing premanently, or un- til they Ire forced to give them (Continued on Page 3) H I country Garden by In.

I harbor the solemn belief that. one of these days, I shall be held accountable for my stewardship. To one whose‘ knuckles are never quite clean. there is some- thing blasphemous about those people who think gardening a habit you can pick up and lay down at will, a sport to pursue when the mood is on you. a di- version for an idle hour when the balmy winds of spring blow down the land. In short, that garden- ing is easy. . Gardening is hard work. so long has gardening in this coun- try been,pre-empted by the ladies that the notion has gotten about that it is a gentle art. a sooth- ing pastime. I flower-emrbowered ivory tower into which you can es- cape. I hold that gardening is part of a disciplined way of life and. like any discipline sets its own preci- ous fruits.

That we may behold a perfect nose of I June morning. enjoy ru-by toma- toes so full with juice that it dribbles down our chins, that we may kneel like little children to gaze in wonder at a violet. This is the way the author des- cribes a good gardener in his latest book. and it maybe bor- rowed from our public library. I I This is the time to order your seeds. bulbs. roses, and shrubs. because early orders help the busy seedsrmn. and quite often some items are in short supply. Look over the bulbs you have as they may need a sprinkling of water if they are drying out, the dahlias especially do well with this treatment.
