Lady Galway, head of the women’s Section at Wembley Exhibition, arranged for demonstration lectures on cooking Empire foods four times daily at the Palace of Industry. Mr L. S. Emery r Colonial Secretary, in a message to Lady Galway, says he- hopes this will stimulate a demand for Empire foodstuffs, and increase the British market for Empire products. The Daily Graphic states that Lady Cowan, wife of Mr G. H. Cowan, M.P. for North Islington, is finding the greatest difficulty in organising an Empire shopping week. Very few towns have consented to show only Empire •products, and the Army and Navy Stores is practically the only London shop to do so. The Graphic adds: “Women forget patriotism when they go shopping. Not even for one week in the year can the, heart of the Empire forego its foreign goods, French clothes, German toys, and American tinned foods. Nevertheless 5 ® Lady •Cowan: is undismayed, and is organising. a ball in Hyde Park Hotel with a supper entirely composed of Empire foods. —Sydney Sun Cables.
