There was a lot of bowling
in Australia, not the kind of
bowling we know in alleys, but
on the green. There were
women’s teams, men's teams
and mixed teams. They all wore
uniforms. The women were call-
ed "White Leghorns” or “Old
Hens”. They wore long skirts
(all being the same distance
from the grass), white hats with
black bands, and white shoes
and hose. The men dressed iri
while shirts and pants and wore ! w.‘/'
black ties. Their hats were the
stiff brim straw “Katies.” The
bowling greens were in perfect
condition, as smooth as a car-
pet.
There were settlements of
Italians who did market garden-
ing. We understood there is
plenty of oil in Australia.
We spent the entire day, Fel>
ruary 11th touring around Syd-
ney. We left the hold in our
bus and drove to Sydney Cove
where we took a ferry for an ex-
cursion around the harber. We
ihen joined our bus for a trip
all around the harbor. From
high vintage point we could sec
the enormity of the harbor, one
of the largest in the world, and
of marked Importance during
World War H.
We saw more of the Ex-Ser-
vicemen’s clubs mentioned in an
earlier article. They are big j
business in that section of the
world. We noted many banks
and insurance company build-
ings, modem architecture, many
arcades. Banking hours were
8:30 to 6:15! Business men were
wearing shorts. There were
current movies being shown, all
of them American. Funnies in
the daily papers were picked up
from last year. We remembered
some of them and then saw the
dates in the corners. Tires were
advertised as “Tyres”.
We ran into a new religion in
Sydney, or rather new to us,
The Baha’i House of Worship.
The beautiful building was erect-
ed on a hill and the landscaped
load to it reminded us of Mor-
man temples. Die building was
simple but beautiful with hand-
some oriental rugs on tlie floor.
A charming well dressed woman
was doing volunteer work and
received us. We have a folder
given us if anyone is interested
in reading about the religion. Ail
people are welcomed, Jews, the
Hindu, the Buddhist, the Chris-
tian, the Muslim. It’s purpose is

And say Ma, just why

Dear Heloise.
Here is a bit of help to other
women who find it hard to see
the worn numbers on their dark
dials on stoves and ovens.
Just mark over them with
a child’s white crayon and rub
those dim numbers and they
come out clear as new again.
The excess can be wiped off
a facial tissue witho u t
removing the white mark down
in the number indentations.
