Since the bowling alley is in Brighton, transportation is ar- ranged\ by older people of the town who are kind enough to drive us down, There are twenty- as well as a dong sub-list. ; Our Keen-Klub opened last Friday night, The turnout was much less. than we expected, and we hope that the next: dance will be better advertised, As 1 said before we have a very wonderful Choral Group. "We also have a very wonderful quartette-- four boys, namely: Jim = Black- hall, Duncan McGlennon, Donald Campbell and Claire Haynes, Now these boys are really some- thing! Just recently they have sung at two different churches on their anniversaries and recently at the United "Church here on November 2nd. That .is about all for this- time.

Presi- dent, Bruce Spencer; Vice-Presi- dent, Wilma Whitney; Recording --{~ Secretary, Bill Zimmerman; Cor- responding Secretary, Helen Bast- endorff; Treasurer, Margaret Farr. A lengthy discussion followed, concerning the aim of the club. It "was readily agreed that the aim should concern the welfare of the community, but what it is to be, was not decided upon entirely, A new_location for the club is now in view, =r To the Correspondents ° We like to.tease.

CHRONICLES OF GINGER FARM A short while ago I was sitting on the front doorstep -- hatless, coatless and baking in the sun. "Bees were buzzing around, gath- ering nectar from the dandelions blooming on the lawn. Lippy was lying in the sun but it evidently became too hot for comfort so she moved away to the shade of an evergreen, None of this would have been worth telling three months ago--but this is Novem- ber! Pretty soon we shall be thinking a magic carpet has car- ried us away to the land "down- under" where they have Christ- mas in summer. So far we haven't had a fire in "the furnace at all--which perhaps is just as well, since the pipes are not even up yet. What a saving of fuel this weather has been. Of course there are pessimists who say--"We shall pay for this un- scasonable weather later onl" Well, maybe we will--on the other hand, maybe we won't. Who can tell? Anyway, if a cold spring should lic ahead isn't that all the more rcason to enjoy nice weather while we can? Especially now that we have had a little rain -- not enough, but sufficient to make ploughing possible. So now the - farmers are happy. Of coupse, the first of that long looked for @ain had to come on the very day I had arranged for a trip to the city. Can you believe it--I was in the city from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. and _ never once was 1 inside a store. But I spent money all right. My reason for going was to visit an oculist--and I went in fear and trembling because I had not made an appointment. But I was lucky | --in twenty minutes he was lucky to sce me, Then after lunching with a friend I set out to visit my in-laws, Here again I took a long chance--by not phoning them first. I rang the door-bell. . . no answer. I rang twice more with By Gwendoline P. Clarke thie same result. Then I went round to the back but could find no sign of life there either, "Oh well," I said. to myself, "there will likely be someone home soon -- I'll wait on the porch." So I sat on the side of the steps and watch- ed the squirrels at play. Presently Postie came along, pushed open the door of the front entry--which I hadn't been able to do. -- and * dropped his letters on the mat, "Well, if Postie can open that door, then I can too" So, in re- sponse to my determined shove the door did open--and thére right op- posite to. me was my brother-in- law opening the dngjde door to pick up his maill don't know which of us was the. more sur- prised. \ "Oh--I thought there was no- body home!" I stammered. "And -I thotight you were some woman out canvassing--we have so many of them these days" Now wasn't that a gréat recep- tion? . At 5.30 I met: Daughter and: af- ter a restaurant meal we went to see "Quiet Week-End." We en- _joyed it so much, but I am not sure it would be everyone's idea of a good picture. It was so very English, Partner and I have just come in from our weekly road inspec- tion. There are several bridges and culverts still unfinished, We can't quite understand the why and wherefore of the bridge construc- tion. It looks as if the water must find itself a new channel before it can flow through the bridges. One man was looking things over and was heard to remark--"It just niakes me smile to sce these en- gineers come along with their tripods and instruments while the old farmers just sit back and laugh. The farmers know very well which way the water should run and they would know the right kind of bridges to build to take care of jt too. And you bet they wouldn't need any instruments either, Many of these farmers know a lot more about engineer- ing and such like than white-col- lar men ever give them credit for." Could be the speaker had some- thing there!

Others are "teen agers, or pre- teens, who have* learned to like cooking at school and are anxious to surprise mother and dad with" tasty dishes of their own making. To such people 'and to new caoks of any other dedicated: 4 Hint No. 1% Very important :* Have your hot foods hot and your cold foods cold. Nothing displeases as much as a plate of luke-warm soup, unless it be a plite of half-melted ice cream, or a warm fruit cup. Hint No. 2: Learn to make good coffee and tea. It's casy, but oh how few can do it. Find out how your favorite coffee or tea maker does this trick--and follow her direc- tions without deviation. Hint No. 3: Learn how to prepare unusual fruit cups, salads, sandwiches and desserts. Learn how to prepare vegetables not often seen on the menu. Get a good recipe book and practice until you have mastered several delicious main-course dishes. Then you are a cook, my friend. Here are two recipes--one for a delicious, easy-to-make and health- ful dessert for both children and adults. They are pleasing starters for the ambitious new cook: Apricot and Banada Salad 2 cups lettuce leaves, shredded 1 cup sliced bananas 6 stewdyl apricots « Whipped cream or boiled dressing.
