A new venture featuring the work of the staff and pupils of Home Science section of the Warwick High School and Technical College will be presented at the Town Hall on Friday, July 21, in the afternoon at 2.30 o’clock and in the evening at 7.20 o’clock.

Tempting dishes of sweets, biscuits and small cakes will be arranged around the hall, while expertly-decorated cakes, finely latticed and also in novelty designs, will be there for all to see. Continuing on a tour of the display tables, which, by the way, are best examined prior to the parade, one will see an enticing array of jams, pickles, and preserves.

An excellent example of the variety of fancy stitches are the needlework samples with their colourful embroidery and hem-stitching. Also in this section will be daintily smocked children’s frocks. A sight to please “my lady’s” eye
