Kaleidoscope
by Lynn Stegman
D . II. E., Red Deer
The home maintenance course held in Pine Lake on March
3rd, 1978, ( the coldest day in March), was designed to make
Mrs . Fix Its out of all the ladies that attended . We all learned
some slick tricks and had an opportunity to practice elec-trical
repairs, plumbing, use of wall fasteners, and repair of
vinyl flooring There were demonstrations on wall papering,
weatherstripping and furance maintenance . We all had fun
learning . but before we could get the workshop underway,
we needed the help of a Mr Fix It . Special thanks to Mr .
Herman Dreeshen and his son for helping us get a frozen lock
unstuck . Without their help, we wouldn't have had heat in
the Home Maintenance Trailer .
The morale of the story is : that it is important for women
to be familiar with home maintenance but it is also very con-venient
when a Mr Fix It is handy ! F>>`"^^^~ ~ L ....~ i..- -

FASHIONS & FABRICS
This is the year of the Dress! The trend is toward the soft
and feminine, full and flowing - in fabric, in design and in
color . Softness is everywhere!!
Fabrics that drape and flow over the body without adding
bulk are essential to conveying the message of femininity .
Pastels abound' Colors for Fashion ' 78 include : vanilla and
ecru ; mauve and lilac ; nectarine, peach and shrimp ; mint
and jade ; daffodil ; baby pink and baby blue.
To top that new Spring outfit - consider Accessories ' 78.
Jewelry does not play a major part in accessorizing. Clutch
bags for classic looks and canvas totes for sporty occasions .
Shoes feature either high or low heels ; with nothing in
between! Ankle straps will be seen to accessorize the
feminine look
For summer dressing ' 78, the key is soft, relaxed, totally
feminine'
