But the girls had caught the strains of the music and they had to follow: someone was call- ing in a way that no onc ever called before." ; Such was the beginning of a won- derful story that was told last night at Christ Church at the first Open Meeting of the 2nd Oshawa Girl Guide company, when the history of the. Romance of Guiding was retold, and how it grew out of Scouting. That the Guides and Scouts are still branches of a great movement and must' interested in each ,others work was shown last night by the presence of two Scout troops, one from North Simcoe United Church with their Scoutmaster, Mr. Sutton, and one from Christ Church . with their Scouters, Mr. Cornish and Geoffrey Territt. Two Scouts of the 8th Troop--Shappell and Pennell-- presented the Guides with a minia- ture sized bed, complete with slats and all varnished in walnut finish, with which they might learn all the bed-making tests required for their Second class test. Mary Fisher the Patrol leader of the Bluebirds which are ahead in their work, in accepting the gift which the Scouts had made themselves, said she knew it was a Scouts duty to be useful and that they had shown their brotherliness to the Guide company by this kind act, which 'would be much appreciated) by the whole company.

Doris Sweet told the story of the making of the Union Jack which was illustrated with the different crosses that make up our flag. A woodcraft trail laid = with sticks. and chalk led all along the paths and ended at a "big beech tree." This was well laid by Mar- garet Twilley and Mary Andrews and was followed by Irene Brunton and Katharine Merritt. Other fea- tures of Guide work and play was shown to an cnthusiastic audience of parents, teachers and friends. At the close of the program the Guides formed up into a horseshoe, led by the Colour. Party carrying the Union Jack kindly loaned "by the Scout troop. of N.

MODEST PURSE FASHION HINTS Things To Remember When Buying the Spring Ward- robe with a Scant Income : Tams, greys and medium blues are excellent choices for the inex- pensive wardrobe this year.

Ointment 25 and Se. Talenm Be, Sold - Social and Personal 'Who would think of using a plece of food as a sieve, draining away ity juices and flavor, and then serv- ing it as a food? Yet that is just what we do--without thinking of it--when we put our food on to cook in water to cover them and then 'drain the water off in the sink. We add a great. deal of wa- ter to begin with, and then let it escape in a jet of steam, washing away flavor and food value. A better wdy is to use a water- less cooker. Most foods are made up largely of water and flavor and if we preserve these elements in the food we are cooking, we are go- ing to have a much more delicious and nutritious dish. The principle of the waterless cooker is that it shuts in the steam and prevents the intense heat from drying the food. Its virtue lies in its 'top and its bottom. The hot- tom is a double bottom, the real bottom of the kettle being of cast iron, and the false bottom of aluwm- inum. In the best type of waterless cookers a layer of asbestos lies be- tween the two bottoms. This lower heat directly on the food lessens evaporation. The top is a tight fitting lid which clamps on and holds the steam in. When the wa- ter which is extracted from tne food, rises to the lid, it drops back again onto the food and rises again, circulating much as in a coffee percolator, percolating the foods in their own moisture. To cook foods in a waterlows cooker, one adds only a small am- ount of water, or none if the pro- duct is a leafy one or contains much moisture. Some of the advantages of the waterless cooker are that it is eas ier for the cook, who does not huve to be so Constantly on the watch for fear things will burn. It saves gas, as it takes but a low fire. A simmer burner fs just the thing. 1t preserves the flavor of the food and it saves the valuable mineral salts and some of the vitamins. The slow cooking gradually breaks up the cellulose fibres of vegetab- les and makes them more digesti- ble. It makes meats more tender, dis- solving the connective tissue. Strangely enough, instead of meats shrinking as they usually do in cooking, they will swell and, if water is added, weigh more when cooked in the waterless cooker than them a dose about. once every three months.

This fabric, in its nat- ural color, is quiet and harmonizes well with other furnishings. It combines appropriately with ap- pliques of brighter colors-or che stitchery trimmings so popuiar su- day. It also dyes well and may be made into curtains or furnishings to fit the color scheme of the room. I would not suggest that you adopt the latter plan for the curtains, for curtains which are not sunfast are impractical. Al- ways buy a material for curtains that is guaranteed not to fade, for they are absolutely ugly. when they are streaked from fading. - ® LJ] ANGEL FOOD ICE BOX CAKE One baker's angel food, sugar, three cups whipped cream, one cup nuts, vanilla. Whip the cream, sweeten and flavor to taste and fold into the nuts. Cut the cake into tree layers and put together with the cream between on a large serving plate. Pile the rest of the cream on top and around the sides. Place in ice box for eight hours. when raw. The waterless cooker is splendid for cheaper cuts of meat as its slow cooking preserves and brings out all the flavors and makes them tender. It is fine for cooking cereals, such as rice, bar- ley and oatmeal, and for steaming puddings. Running a charge account, here and there, has its advantages, but it demands care to be sure that no mistakes are made, and that a bill is not paid twice. Do not let your accounts ran for a long time. It is much better to pay them each month, as they are easier to pay before they mount so high. It is also more fair to the merchant, and makes for more correctness in the account. You cannot remember what you bought, if the bill reaches back for six or eight months, If you are to have goods charged, it is a wise precaution to get a statement of it at the time you buy, Keep this for reference when the monthly bill comes in. A spindle, such as they use in offices, or hook on the cupboard door, is a good place to keep these current state- ments. Check up the monthly statement to be sure it is correct, and when you pay it, have it marked "Paid," Home ~ and 12 you can be one trial will do it 'Fresh from the gardens' with the date of payment. Then, if ever by any mistake--or otherwise ----that bill is presented again, you have proof of its payment. Some careful housewives pay the month- ly bills by check and even mark on each bill the number of the check which paid it. double receipt. : The receipted bill should be scru- pulously filed away, in a regular place, for such accounts only, not in u drawer with a lot of other things. A covered box on a shelf, within easy reach but where it will not ve disturbed, is a good place to file away your household bills for the year. At the end of the year, put You have then a all the receipts for that year in a large envelope; mark them "House- hold receipts for 1929;" and put the envelope in a special place where you can keep them together year after year.
