PAGE NYGET THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILLE. ONTAR!O THURSDAY, MARCH lOth, 1949 HeUlo Homemakers! In your quest for foods ta, serve during lent, let me suggest lima beans. They are a good alternate for --potatoes, macaroni and rice. Be- cause they belang ta the starchy foods lima beans contribute ener- gy and beartiness ta the meal as well as minerais. They rate bigh in pratein, too, which puts them in the class of meat substitutes. While the flavour of lima beans is bland, it is sufficiently distinc- tive ta add variety ta your meais even if beans are served plain in place of potataes. However, be- cause of their blandncss we can vary them in a wide range of us- es. We like themn equaliy wel in salad or in casserole. In a chilled bowl combine cold cooked lima beans with crisp textured vegetables such as celery and fald in same rather nippy bamemade salad dressing. A variety of deliciaus lima bean casseroles is passible with the use of different sauces and seasanings in their preparation. Plan the remainder of the meal ta balance such an ail-in-one course, e.g., Lima Bean Casserole, Carrot and Raisin salad, IDate squares and canned fruit. Lima Dean Casserole 1 cup dried lima beans 3 anians, sliced 1 can condensed tomato saup 1 tablespoon chopped celery 2 tablespoons bacon fat 2'3 cup hot water 1 cup grated cheese Seek lima beans overnight. In the morning bring ta bail. Then place aver bailing water. add cel- ery and cook until tender. (1 ta 2 haurs.) Drain. While beans are cooking, fry sliced anions in bacbn fat until golden brown. Add tamata saup and water. Simmer gently for 10 minutes. When beans are cooked and drained, add-ta sauce. Stir in Lcheese. Season with sait and pep- per. Pour into greased casser- ole. Bake in maderate electric aven (350 degrees) far 20 min- utes. Yield: 4 servings.

The British public have chosen crimsan and cream coaches and brigbt blue locomotives for their nationalized express trains. The caîl ta advance bias always been before the Christian Church, for it is the very essence of its religion. But the urgency for a great response ta meet taday's needs is a new caîl right nowv de- clared Mrs. A. A. Drummond, Or- ana, Preshyterial Secretary of Christian Stewardship and Fin- ance, at the annual meeting o! Oshawa Preshyterial beld in Whitby United Church last week. Today we are living in mo- mentous times. Naw there is an unparalleled opportunity ta pre- sent Christ ta unchristian peoples and ta make a real impact on their lives, she said. The .defeat o! Japan shaak the life o! that country ta its deepest foundations. In every phase o! life, politicai, social and ecanamic, there was upheavai, dislocation, uncertainty, and tbe youth of Ja- pan is naw searching desperately for some new basis on which ta build. Anytbing new might seem ta be preferable ta, the blind des- patism that brought tbem ta ruin. Japan is a highiy educated coun- try; 98 percent of bier people are literate and crave reading mater- ial. Sa Russia lias simpiy flaoded the country with communistic literature. But 'we haven't mon- ey ta prinit even the number of Bibles and tbe Christian litera- ture that tbey ask for, ta say no- tbing of flooding the country". Dr. Kagawa says the next ten years will determine the destiny of Japan. Suffering in India In India with its recentiy ach- ieved niational independence, the people must work out entirely new patterns in every phase of life, she declared; outlining the conflict of opinions, strife, paver- ty and suffering. China, too, hias been tamn these many years by wars and the tra- gedy of civil war; and .wbile Russia keeps the attention of the Western world focused on Ber- lin and the airlift, cammunistie armies are sweeping ahi across Eastern Asia. Missionaries are driven out, and oniy communism is allowed ta be taught. Christ- ianity and cammunism cannat ca- exist and we decide naw, whetb- er we act or whether we don't, wbichi will rule the world." Tactics used by cammunists wherever they go is hatred, per- haps nat 50 much aaginst people. -but against Almighty God, she said. Tbe forces of evil are arrayed against the farces of God and the battie for supremacy of the world is an. It is a time when aur chur- ches should be filied ta overfiow- ing with earnest, prayerful peo- pie, she added. Mrs. Dmummond said that in Africa, toa, was trouble and strife as western industry and culture averpawered primitive tri b a i ways of hife. "Africa needs belp, leadership and Christian enlight- enment," shie said, and spoke also of Korea and Trinidad. Christian Opportunity "Thus the world's chaotic con- dition presents us with an unpre, cedented appartunity ta present Branch Office: 169 Charlotte Street, Peterborough P. J. MATHER, Divisional Manager the Christian gospel with ahli Us healing, transforming power,"' she said, 'and ta supply the firm foundations on which ahane these nations can buiid lasting peace. One other fact she mentioned: Everywhere was the great mass of human need-hunger, poverty, lack of clothing and sheiter, hun- dreds faund on the streets dead fram starvation ànd exposure. A visitar from Norway, cansi- dered a land of plenty, was wretched and could flot enjay ber food here until she had spent a couple ofý hundred dollars in food parcels for her dear ones in Oslo. The speaker revealed that in Canada scores of remote districts bad no missionaries or Christian teachers, new peopies had came to this land, built a church in their cammunity but no leadership had been sent tbem. Twelve nurses were needed right now for out- lying hospitais. In other lands hundreds and bundreds of stu- dents waited ta enter mission sehools here, but there was no raam for them. The Whoie World Waits "Everywhere the world is wait- ing 'breathless, graping for light -and if Christian forces do not mave in naw through these wide- open doors with a steadying, soul-saving message, darker far- ces, powerful, active, are gaing ta be there first. "Sa aur Dominion Board calîs us now ta Advance-a ringing challenge for every department. This is the zero hour! The criticai hour that will shape the destiny of the world.Y The effectiveness of the whole set-up depends on not just the efforts of Dominion Board, but cames down through the branches, Presbyterials and Auxil i a r i e s, right ta the individual member, she said. Mrs. Drummond called for a definite advance alang evcry line -of work with these points: "Let every society campaign for new mcmbers. There is much latent Powver and capacity in this Pres- bytery which has neyer been tapped-that is why it is lateht. We have tremendous unused, un- harnessed missionary endeavar among aur wamen, else this church would be crowded ta the doors and hundreds more waiting ta came in. We need a drive for membership. Will every member strive ta bring in at least one new member this year. Work and Pray "Urge ail wamen ta study and pray ta know Gad bet.ter this year. He will give us the vision and show us the way. If we do,'or give only wbat we did last year, we are not advancing at ail. We must exceed the best that we have ever donc before. "Then let every auxiliary seek ta enlarge and strengthen its own family-i.e. form what ever jun- ior arganizations yau lack-per- haps yau have material for the making of a Mission Band, C.G.I. T., Mission Circle, Evening Aux- iliary and associate members department. They could be a great belp. Explore the possibility o! Associate Members with a special secretary ta look after them. There bas been an excellent in- crease in affiiiated societies late- ly, but there must be many more W.A.'s in smaller churches who would hike ta affiliate with us and have a share in this vast enter- prise in Christ's kingdom. AN QUAILITY AND 855 O-lPhe Bes855 ber littie else of my talk, please retain this one word 'Advance'- the keynote of ahl the work this year-and rise to a challenge with inspiration and vitality." Jimmie Hughes Holds Happy Birthday Party Monday, February 28, was an eventful day for Jimmie Hughes, son of Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Hughes, Toronto, when he enter- tained at a sumptuous party ta celebrate his fourth birthday. Jimmie's ibirthday was Sunday, and, as usual, he came to Bow- manville ta visit with his grand- mother, Mrs. Gea. Pritchard, at whose home the party was held. At 4 o' clock the guests arrived and after an hour of- playing games, Jimmie opened bis birth- day presents and thanked all the boys and girls for the wonderful gifts. Then came the birthday lunch served at a decorated table. There was a birthday cake com- plete with 4 candles and ahl the trimmings that help to make a little fellow's birthday such an important and jolly day. Guests at the party included Jimmie's Mother and Grandmo- ther, Aunt Josie Hughes with cousins Ileen, Pauline, John, Bry- an and Brenton; Mrs. Harold Ben- nett and cousins Elaine and Jo- hanne; cousin Margie Bond; Mrs. Clarence Osborne, Kathleen and Donald; Mrs. J. E. Finnigan and Rickie. United Ch'lljurch Raised Over Two and Haif Millions M.& M. Fund The United Church of Canada hasraised for bier missionary and benevalent wark through the Missionry and Maintenance Fund the sum o! $2,540,572, it w as an- nounced today by Mr. A. E. Mc- Bride, Chairman of the National Missionary and Maintenance Com- mittee. Mr. McBride said that this is an increase of $365,537 or 17 per cent over last year. Since 1942 the church bas in- creased its givings for this Fund by ovcr $1,000,057. The objective for 1950, the 25th Anniversary Year, is $3,000,000. Every Conference has secured an increase; the Bay o! Quinte T- ronto and Alberta Conferences reaching 100 per cent of the ob- jective set by the hast General Cauncil. The amounts by Conferences are:- Newfoundland ---------$ 34.487 Maritimes ---------- 2.51,979 Montreal &'Ottawa 302,937- Bay of Quinte ----------205,372-- Toronto ---------------- 530,949 Hamilton---------------------- 329,421 London---------------------- 315,641 Manitoba ----- - ------- 165,022 Saskatchewan -------- 138,026, Alberta ----------------126,534 British Columbia ---------- 134,150 The Cockney cleaning w-amen of Whitehall recently sloped iiiops and, led by a piper, marched on parliament and demanded a wage increase. Red Cross Needs $5,000,000 to Carry On Weifare Work To help carry on its welfare and educational wotk the Cana- dian Red Cross Society is appeal- ing for $5,000,000 in its annual campaign for funds which com- mences February 28. Forty per cent or $2,000,000 o! the National total must be raised by the province o! On'taiio. Last year's National objective o! $3,000,0!40 proved sufficient only because o! surplus war funds on hand. This year that amount bas ibeen used up, and the Society must rely entirely on current con- tributions. That is why the pro- vincial need o! $2,000,000 is a must! This year there is the new Blood Transfusion Service which is juit beginning to operate ln Central Ontario. Already tht: program is in operation in Bri- tish Columbia, Alberta, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. It in hoped that in a short time every Canadian will be able to recelve a free Blood Transfusion when the need arises. The Outpost Hospitala are ex-. panding; there are two Dental Coaches and a Dental Survev ini areas where dental health 15 often neglected. Volunteer Nursing Ser- vices, Swimming and Water Safe- ty, First Aid, Nutrition, Disaster Relief, Homemaker Service and Junior Red Cross. The work for veterans continues. These and many smaller works o! mercy need a part o! that $2,000,000 pro- vincial total o! these good works 2 are ta continue.
