---PBeets are an excellent-source of -iron W.1. Training School The second class of the Department of Agriculture sponsored course "The Third Meal" was held last Thursday at the home of Mrs, Mabel Howsam from 10 a.m. until 4 pan.. Hot main dishes and desserts were discussed and five recipes were demonstrated. The food that was prepared was served as lunch. The leaders and the members of the course thanked Mrs, Howsam for the use of her gracious and charming home. = Everyone en- joyed the buttered french stick and pickles and friutcake and cookies, the tea and coffee that she served. Recipes demonstrated by Mrs. Hill "and Mrs. Carnochan. Egg and Vegetable Casserole 2 cups cooked diced potatoes 1% cups diced cooked green beans (Blue Lake variety) 65 hard cooked eggs sliced 3 tbsps chopped onion 3 tbsps chopped pimento 1-tsp. salt 1/8 tsp. pepper . 2 cups well seasoned medium white sauce 14 cup grated nippy cheese. Add all ingredients except cheese to white. sauce. Pour mixture into a buttered casserole and top with grated cheese. Bake in a hot oven 460 until golden brown. " The above casserole lends itself to many adaptations. Leftover green peas instead of beans, cubed leftover meat, condensed cream soups instead of white sauce. The cook who uses a little ingenuity will see many varia- tions of this recipe without having to change the basic character of the dish, ---- Corn Chowdér 2 medium potatoes diced (raw) 1 large carrot diced 2 cups water 2 cups milk ~------g-pups-cream-style corn 4 strips bacon, crisp chopped fine Ya cup onions chopped. Salt, pepper to suit. Cook potatoes and carrots in two cups water until just tender. Add milk and gorn, onions lightly browned ~in pan when cooking bacon. ~-This is a complete meal type soup. Serve it attractively in large turreen sprinkled with toasted bread cubes coated with cheese. There are many varieties of chow- der. Fish, using haddock or cod or clams or lobster; vegetable crowders which generally include some fat or salt pork as a base, all are a type of dish midway bewteen a stew and a soup. The word chowder originates from the French word chaudier mean- ing couldron. In early French Cana- dian History it was a custom for the women to gather on occasion with each bringing one ingredient for the pot of stew. This was a community hot meal and thus was instituted the pot au feu that became chowder. .

Mrs. Whelan constituted the meet- ing with Call to Worship, The morn- ing devotions were presented by mems bers of the Bobcaygeon Auxiliary, fol- lowed by words of welcome to St. An- drew's by Mrs. Wallace, President of Lindsay Auxiliary. A business period followed. Mrs. Whelan announced that Council Exe- cutive have said that Lindsay Pres. byterial might have the services of Miss Lillian Reay (Deaconess) for de- putation work on March 21st, 22nd & 223rd if so desired. Later in the meeting it -was unanimously agreed to accept this service. The 'Annual training Centre for leaders will be held in Albert College, Belleville, July 11th to 16th, 1961, inclusive. Mrs. Henderson McIntyre, Treas- urer then presented her report which was a very gratifying one. Lindsay Presbyterial raised a total of $6.689.81 in 1960. This was an increase of ap- proximately $272.00 over 1969, Mrs. Whelan expressed pleasure at this re- sport but warned that it still is not enough. -We must press on toward the goal--"The World for Christ". In the unavoidable absence of Mrs. M. Ormerod, Recording Secretary, Mrs. Robert Woods presented the con- densed report of all departments. This was a story of progress all al- ong "the line: -- Some phases of the work showing much greater increase than others but each seemingly a- ware of the need for togetherness at all times. } At this time a rather unique prece- dent was established when the mem- stein cattle and he recommended that | bers of Lindsay Presbytery, who were A _ greater: interest be taken on the also meeting in: St. Andrew's Church, 'part of Holstein Breeders in having | Joined the ladies of the Presbyterial their herds graded and in Records of | to take part in a panel discussion on Production.

He 'emphasized. the import. ance of 'type and production in Hol- neighbouring Championship Church School Board of Managers, Shows. ete. At this point Miss Walker sug- 2. County T gested that It Ts a mistake to have the group too large as it is easler for a smaller group to come to-gether and discuss problems and reach a solu- tion. Quest (3)--What are the functions or duties of such a Committee? Miss Walker answered this by saying that each congregation may set its own goal according to its needs. Co-ordi- nate the work of all groups. Present the total ministry of Christ through Mission Study and Stewardship. - Re- view the personel in all groups. Assist leaders and Sunday School teachers: Organize Vacation Bible School and see that every child in the congregation is contacted. Visit fa- milles who do not attend church, Present such an intéresting program- me that they will want to come and then. make them welcome. See that leaders and teachers have the proper equipment and make everyone know 'that someone cares and is concerned that they come to the Church. Be a right arm to the seasion but at the same time expect the session to ful- fil their duties as the ruling body of the congregation by having a keen in. terest in every department and work- ing to build up and expand the local church.

Rev. G. McDonald of Fenelon Falls then brought greetings from Presby- tery. He said we are all going forth in the. Name of Christ as co-workers, spreading the gospel with a deep and prayerful concern for Missions. We are facing a changed situation chal- lenged by a revival of the pagan re- ligions of the East as well as much materialism at home. He urged much prayer and re-doubled efforts along the line of Missionary Educa. tion of gur people, filling them with a gense of urgency for the need of Church extension throughout the world, always remembering that He whose power cannot fail can over. come all difficulties. Mrs. Whelan thanked Mr. McDon. ald for his inspiring words and paus- ed to pay tribute to the Memory of the Late Rev. C. J. Beckley of Wood. ville, who just one year ago had brought greetings from Presbytery and had led the Presbyterial in prayer. Promptly at 2 p.m. the afternoon session was convened by Mrs. Whelan. A spontaneous prayer session fol- lowed after which Kirkfield Auxiliary conducted an impressive In Memori- am Service for those members who have entered higher service in the past year. * Roll was called and one hundred and fifteen ladies responded repre- senting twenty out of twenty-one Auxiliaries. Miss Margaret Kennedy, Missionary on furlough from India was then in- troduced by Mrs. Whelan as the Guest Speaker. . Miss Kennedy in speaking of her teaching in India, likened them to the New Christians which Peter and Paul had] written to so many years ago. The/ great tra- gedy in the lives of these people is fear and the only way this can be overcome is by love. When our Mis- sioharies are able to show them this love they lose their fear and feel they are among friends. Then it is that "God reaches down -.and-.helps._ the. Missionary to lead them on to Him. Our challenge is to make our witness wide enough and deep enough that every person in the world may feel that he or she-counts in the sight of God. "In thanking Miss Kennedy, Mrs. Whelan said that this message was not just a challenge but a great spiritual experience. We were then favoured with two delightful trios by three young ladies from Quaker Hill, accompanied at the piano by Mrs. Cassie. Registration was announced as 116. It was also announced that at the Summer Rally to .be held in Game- bridge in June, one of the sessions would take the form of a leader's training course under the direction of Miss Ruby Walker. It was also sug- gested that instead of two girls being gent to Camp, only one should go, and a delegate be sent to the training School in Belleville in July of this year. It was also agreed 'that the Presbyterial Expense fee be 2c. per member instead of the former 10e.

Heron, Ashburn; Mrs. C. Veale, Woodville; Mrs. C. Nicholls, Bolsover and Mrs. McKerracher, Lindsay. . At this time Mrs. Whelan had great pleasure in announcing two groups, newly organized.

In introducing her, Mrs. Whelan referred o her a8 a "precious jeweldn our midst", dnd those. who heard her felt it to be true. Foe Speaking more particularly 'to the younger members of our Misslonary family, Miss Kennedy drew a contrast between the Hindus and the Bhils whom she loves. The Hindu people are more selfish, taking what they can get and keeping it among them- gelves. The Bhils share with all some of their Christian Evangelists going - to minister to those outside their own Caste, feeling there should be no hatred among tribes when they are able to pray. They are willing to speak for Jesus'any time and any place. What about us? We boast about what we are and what we be: lieve, but we do not act as though it 1s real enough or precious erough to pasa on to others. We forget that man does not live by bread alone. We share everything but the one thing that will make men and women of people both at home and abroad. St. Margaret's Young Women's Aux- iliary of Uxbridge conducted the Ev- ening Devotions and the offering was recéilved by members of Lindsay Go- forth Auxiliary.

W. Wright, Depart- ment of Agriculture, Economics De- partment, 0.A.C., Guelph was the guest speaker. He gave a general forecast on' the agricultural outlook for 1961. He did not forecast any major changes in prices as far as fluid milk is concerned, but recom- mended that individual farmers should concentrate on keeping down their production costs. For beef cattle he forecast that prices are not likely to be better, and may be lower for 1961. He based hig predictions on the fact that the num- bers of beef cattle are up, not only in Canada, but in the United States, as well. He forecast a fairly steady market for hogs for the first half of 1961, with lower prices for next fall. The numbers of hogs in Canada are increasing. ut the present time. [f this trend increases, the prices for TT hogs in 1962 will likely average lowe: than for 1961. A number of new members were present, who received suggestions and assistance in setting up their ac- count books for the first time.
