Mr. Donnell was form- erly a Port Perry High School student who boarded with' his aunt Mrs. Hart, who lived here at that time and he enjoyed renewing old friend- ships. . Last Monday night a wilsting of the ratepayers of S. S. No. 7, Reach, was held in the basement of the school at the request of some parties to dis- cuss what ceremonies should be held in connection with the opening of the school, which is now up-to-date and is a big improvement to the appearance| in of the village. Holding a field day was- discussed and it was decided by a secret ballot to allow. a Community Club to have the use of the school one night a week, preferably Friday night. There was a large attendance and the diffeyent subjects were well discussed. We are very glad to see Miss G. Martyn with us again after her tonsil operation in Toronto. Prince Albert people who attended Oshawa Fair were Mr. and Mrs, P. Raymer, Mr. Saeger, Mr. and Mrs. Starr and Mrs. Bickle. . Congratulations to Miss J.

Duncan Marshall at the Port Perry Fair. Prize Winner at the C.N.E. MRS. W. BROWN WINS BREAD- MAKING PRIZE AT C. N, E. (Toronto Star.) Mrs. William Brown, 57 Wanda Road, Toronto, is the finest bread maker in Canada, if carrying off first prize at the C.N.E. puts her in that class. Defeating Mrs. G. M. Judge, 16 Close Ave., who has been holding that distinction for years. Mrs. Brown was adjudged the best cook this year in the business of bread-making. Murs. Judge, however, follows a close second, with Mrs, Jas. H. Jefferson, 326 Deloraine Ave., holding thira place. This would seem to prove that city cooks are ahead of their farm sisters. Holders of the first three places are all Toronto women. In a little old top oven, which sits on two burners of her gas stove, Mrs, Brown baked the bread which carried off first prize at the Canadian Nation- al Exhibition. She has the magic touch which can manage with or with- out the best equipment which a modern kitchen can produce. She has been baking bread only two years, but has been known as a good cook for 17. Just three weeks ago she moved from her apartment at 23 Jane St., into a house at 57 Wanda Rd. Accustomed to an electric range in the apartment, the.new home with its little top oven heated"by gas pre- sented difficulties. But Mrs. Brown had carried off third prize for her bread last year at the Exhibition and she wasn't going to be stopped from competing this year. So the little top oven did the trick and her bread was adjudged the finest in all Canada. Mrs. Brown, who comes from Pen- nam in the north of Scotland, has been living in Canada for five years. She married William Brown, formerly of Seagrave, about three years ago. Here's Prize Recipe How does she make here bread? Here's how! Flour, b measures; milk 2 quarts; salt, two ounces; lard, five ounces; sugar 3 ounces; yeast, 3 ounces. The 'original recipe calls for 1 tablespoonful of malt. But this she did not include in the prize bread simply because she did not have it. First she scalds the milk, and adds the lard, sugar and salt. She mixes the yeast with a little warm water, (about half a pint) and adds this to the scalded milk. When the mixture is luke warm she adds the flour grad- ually and kneaded well. She then lets her bread rise in a warm place for two hours, puts it in pans and lets it rise another hour. Thirty-five minutes in the oven finishes the process, a quick oven for the first 15 minutes with the heat lowered for the rest of the time. She bakes just two loaves at a time. This '| morning one went to the Exhibition and by the time the Star arrived the second loaf was pracically gone, be- cause he neighbours had been in sampling he prize bread. _------ > o-------------------- "ANOTHER ROOM" "No, not cold beneath the grasses, Not close-walled within the tomb; Rather in our- Father's mansion, Living in another room. 3 Living like the man who loves me, Like my child with cheeks abloom; Out of sight, at desk, or school-book, Busy in another room. Nearer than my-son whom fortune Beckons where the strange lands loom; Just behind the hanging curtain, Serving in another room. Shall T doubt my Father's mercy? Shall I think of death as doom, Or, the stepping o'er the threshold 'To a bigger, brighter room? Shall T blame my Father's wisdom? Shall I sit enswathed in gloom, When I know my loves are happy, Waiting in another room?

Johns' house and on Harvey Dobson's farm, though, of course, neither of them lived there then. Then a school was built where the present one now stands. It was bat- tened outside and painted yellow. You entered a little lobby about 8 feet by ten feet where you swept your boots. From it you entered the big school- room with its nails along the back for you to hang your hats and coats. It was much the same style as the present school, windows along each side and a blackboard along the front. But the blackboard then was made of wood and painted black. We had a few maps to hang up for our Geog- raphy lesson, and a box stove to keep us warm on cold days. The desks were hand made, they had been painted one day, but for some reason or other most of the paint wore off. The front of the desk made a back for the seat ahead. This seat was just a plank with only room for two to sit down. They hadn't left us much space to get into the seats, but once you sat down there was plenty or room to stretch your legs. We had slates and slate pencils in- stead of scribblers and we learned a lot too. Not this new-fangled chem- istry and physics but how to spell l-e-m-o0-n p-i-e and how many pounds in a bushel of wheat. Usually we had a man teacher, and if there was a full schogl, which was quite often, we had a lady assistant. In 1884 the school was remodelled and made as it is at present. I was trying to think of some of the school teacher's names, some of those who taught us away back and some that come to my mind are Messrs. Rose, Leonard, and McCullough. The late Mr. James McBrien, of Prince Albert was the Inspector here for a good many years. Above the blackboard in those who passed the entrance. Mr. Thos. Greenwood had these names put chester. The playground has been enlarged twice, both times by buying land from Mr. Will Munro. Now that the holidays are over and, mighty fast they went, too, a glad, joyous summer gone, an autumn of gay yellows, crimsons and browns : coming, and school re-opening next | week. Miss Grace White is teaching | here this year and we wish both she and her pupils the best of luck. Congratulations are extended to: Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Sonley, on the birth of a daughter. Uncle Ebenezer. : --_-- > - >-- THE PROPER CARE OF YOUR AUTOMOBILE In the first articles it was told how many motorists make the mistake of believing that their cars must be re-' finished when the finish becomes dull and faded. In restoring the color and gloss of the finish, however, it is im- portant that the right polishing ma- terial be selected. There is little ad- vantage, for instance, in using an oily polish, because it doesn't remove the traffic film, but only. forms an oil film over it. The best results are obtained by the use of a polish which contains a mild solvent to soften the traffic film, and a light abrasive to clear away the chalked pigment and dirt. When they start cleaning their cars, many people become alarmed when they see color coming away on the cloth. = They assume that 'the polish is too severe, and will wear away the finish on the car. But there | is nothing to fear when the properly formulated polish is used. The colour on the cloth simply indicates that the tiny particles of pigment, loosened by the weathering, are being removed' with the traflié film. This chalked | pigment and accumulation of dirt and BLACKSTOCK Middle School The following are the Middle School examination results at our local Con- tinuation School: (1) First Class Honours; Second Class 'Honours; (3) (2) Third Class Honours; (c) Credit; and when a number follows the subject it shows the number of marks received in that subject: Louise Davidson--Eng.
