Ginger FARM Gwendoline P Clark We have had another week of nice warm weather; another re- prieve from winter; another 'chance - to get done those-pre-winter jobs which we had "not done--and we really made good use of this very welcome "time-extension. Partner was boy re-papering part of the kitchen roof--the last big rain. con- ~vinced us we had _to do something | or move out. One time it rained and there wasn't a leak--next time: we hardly knew whether we were indoors or out. And if there is any- thing more depressing than a leaky - | roof I don't" want to hear: about it. Ping-pong . ... {rip-drop . ... splosh! Variations in tone depends ing upon tlic type of pan set to catch the drips: - while a dull "splosh" 'indicated new drips drop- ' ping straight to the floor . . . run, quick--get another pan! But now we hope our roof troubles are over --for a year or two at any rate. * ® * > While Partner was doing the roof I got busy taking off screens and cleaning the outside of the windows. I never like that job because - balancing -myseli -- on a -- stepladder~is--not one of --myout=--- standing accomplishments. I much prefer to have-~botli feet on the' ground when I'am working. It even bothers me to see other people on "ladders so I wasn't very happy - when Partner -was doing the roof, cven though it is quite low. And some people have no fear of high -places at all. The other day I heard of a little old lady 'over 80 who drives her family almost frantic becayse if she gets. a chance she will clean the bedroom windows outside by throwing up the lower sash and sitting on the window-sill to do the job. That little lady evidently doesn't suffér from acro- phobia, My way of dealing with up- stair windows is to remove part of - the frame--from the inside-- lift . out the sash and clean my windows in safety and comfort. There is usually more than one way of doing a job if you look for it. : * *® Ld . Which reminds me .-.. we are wondering to what extent, if any, acroplanes are used in making road surveys. Scveral times we have noticed planes flying low, 'hack and fortlf, following the course of the surveyors' stakes for the proposed new highway from Montreal to Windsor, which, unless plans are changed, may run through our farm, Another day our mailman told us that he, also, had: watched | "a plane, with what looked like a long cable hanging from it, follow- ing this same acrial route. It would be 'nice to know what it all means. But I suppose only the Depart ment' of Highways knows--and it won't tell! ; * + Ld - Well, here is one person glad "to pass on information---for what it is worth. The other day, rather than fetch soap and water to wash the outside of the front .door, 1 used what I had in"'my hand--a rag soaked with furniture cream and polish. The result was unbelievable _.--the door. looked as if it had been freshly painted. ."It won't last--it. | will soon go dull again," 1 said to myself. But - it "didn't--it is still bright and. clean--and 1 see no reason now why it shouldn't stay. that way, Funny: the things onz discovers by accident, * * * And now to change the shbject. [ must confess to having wasted a lot 'of time--wasted it in reading a "best seller." The book was "Star Money" -by Kathleen: Winsor--the same author who wrote "Forever Amber." The pity of it because so ; ' - : * Itching, Burning Perspiring Feet much of the writing is clever one feels that the author 'is capable of - writing a good nove} if she set her mind to it. As to that, I quite enjoyed the historical background in her previous novel. But "Star Money" _has little -to- commend -it aset is mainly a recital of:divorces and illicit love affairs. One has the feeling it is a novel based on thé' findings of the Kinsey report. When there is still so much in the world that is good and fine why should any novelist--and a woman at that--degrade herself by writing such a book? One is thank- ful there are still novelists like Elizabeth Goudge who can write for our pleasure such a delightful -book as "Gentian Hill." . : But, some of you may: argue, this | - "is an age of realism. Granted, but" surely that. which is beautiful and beneficient is just - as realistic as the sordid" and sensual side of hu- man nature. Remember those lines: "Two men looked out from prison bars. One saw mud, the other stars." Miss Winsor apparently prefers the mud and likes to have her readers wallow in it with. her. Again you may argue--"If you didn't like the bodk why did -you read it?" For the simple reason one can hardly give an opinion about any book without knowing its - content. The book had one saving grace. Psychologically the way in which the heroine reacted to sud- denly acquired fame and fortune was interesting-and well portrayed. - ' ot, Easier Way Of Knitting Sleeves If you find knitting smoother and faster than purling, here's how you can zip up or down that 18-inch on sleeves when using the stock-. inétte -or, another similar stitch." 1f-your directions begin with the "cuff, simply use four double-pointed needles instead of two single-point- ed ones for the K2, P2 routine. Then contiriue up the sleeve with four ncedles, knitting every row, rather than knitting one row and _purling back. Adding for fullness at the elbow is just as easy as if your were using two needles." Just increase on the . first or second stitch of number stitch of number 3. 3 "Of course, when you reach the required number of inches and be- gin to shape the armhole, you use single-pointed ones. =~ ! Some directions for sleeves start 1 needle and the last, or next-to-last by picking up stitches along the" armhole on the body of th€ gar- ment. Using this method you ean knit the entire sleeve right down to the cuff. s No one will have to "needle" you into using this methcd.
