Several letters of appreciation have been received from these grateful people by Mrs. H, J. Pincombe, president of the group, and. Mrs, Harry Smith, pre- sident of the Woman's Association of Simcoe Street United Church, as well as numerous notes which the members of the group have received personally, Mrs. Pincombe informs us that everything that has been sent has been received in good con. dition and that there have been no bad reports to date, The following is typical of the letters being received by Mrs. Pin- combe and Mrs. Smith: Bast Lynn, Lansdown Lane, 'Weston, Bath, Somerset. 27, 12, 47 Dear Mrs. Pincombe, I am writing th yifew lines for my mother, to than you very much for the wonderful parcel we receiv- ed some time ago. We are very sorry that we have not written be- fore but somehow we mislaid your address, and on finding it this morning I have made this letter my first task. The contents of the parcel were very useful indeed. Two shirts fitted my brother, mother: found a navy cardigan very useful, in fact she is wearing it at this moment. I took a fancy to a blue jerkin with a zip up the front, the zip being a great attraction, Now that Christmas is over, I am going to attempt to make myself a pair of pyjamas with the material that was in the parcel, and, goodness, I nearly forgot the super pink pair of pyjamas that fitted me, a treat. The rest of the contents we gave to Mr, and Mrs, Smith for their five children. The Smith fam- ily are regular attendants of our little village chapel, the five small children being members of our Sun- day School. I am lucky enough to have one of the boys in my class. From these few lines I hope you ;:an imagine clearly how much your parcel was appreciated. We all hope that you had an en- joyable Christmas and that the New Year will bring you all that you wish for. Thanking you once again from us all--I will close these few lines. With best wishes to you and yours, Yours sincerely Joyce Lalchem. Any donations of clothing or tin- ned goods which anyone would care to contribute to these parcels which the Sunshine group are send- ing will be gratefully received. This may be done by contacting Mrs. Pinccmbe at 494 or Mrs. Harry Smith at 555 or any member of the group. The group also wish to thank any who have donated to these box- es in the past. SQUINTING No matter how young a child is, he should be given special medical attention if he squints. Medical authorities declare that. squinting which develops in infancy, should be investigated and treated. If left too long, the vision in the squint- ing eye may be lost through disuse. This, the experts say, is very likely to occur if nothing is done before the age of five or six years is reached. Plane-to-ground radio telephone service will 'be available to passen- gers soon on one trans-Atlantic service, It is a good idea to give your gas stove a daily wipe with a soapy cloth, both in- side and out. It is best to do this when the stove is completely cool. If you spill fool while working at the stove, wipe it up immediately so that it will not harden and be more difficult to remove. If the stove is hot, use a hot--not a cold --wet cloth. English Girl Weds Soon After Arrival Miss Jean Elizabeth Wicks, daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. W.

Whale meat, and venison are only two of the ingedionts they are trying out. he cooks are employed by the Ministry of Food to work out new dishes and menus, so that the austerity diet of the people of Britain, who are now more tightly rationed than they were in the darkest days of the war, will He as varied as possible. Their job is to prepare tasty dishes that use a minimum of fat (the cooking fat ration per person is one ounce a week), very little milk (an adult gets only two pints a week), and preferably no eggs (allocations made when eggs avail- able). - The. experimental kitchens are small, the idea being to use only the facilities of the average small home. The cooks at the experi- mental kitchens all have domestic economy degrees and have had practical experience in selected omes, where they have learned first-hand of the tremendous diffi- culties facing housewives in Bri- tain today. When the cooks have worked out their recipes in detail and tried them out on a team of experts, the recipes are given to the news- papers, magazines and the radio, everywhere, in fact, where they will catch the attention of house- wives. When Britain first began to use whale meat, two Norwegian cooks came over to help, but the Ministry of Food girls had to adapt all their recipes, because the Norwegian re- cipes contained more fat than was available. Old recipes for such things as boiled pigs' trotters are also being revived. A great deal of the kitchens' work is seasonal. During a tomato glut, they will plan recipes for cooking tomatoes and will also suggest ways of keeping them for the winter. Bottling is a very im- portant part of the kitchens routine at the moment, because stores of bottled fruit and vegetables are in- valuable aids to Britain's home- makers in trying to eke out limited supplies of food. Cooks at the experimental kitchens try out vari- ous ways of bottling with different kinds of equipment. In the last year, many import- ant ideas worked out by the ex- rimental kitchens have helped ritain's homemakers. Many in- teresting recipes have been worked out for fish, which is one of the few unrationed foods in Britain. Sandwich lunches for workers have been planned to give the highest rotein consent. A special effort is made to plan children's meals. Sugarless cakes and dried-milk candy are among their creations. Upside-Down School _Children at Queen Mary's Hos- pital, just outside London, are carrying on with their schoolwork while they're in bed , . . sometimes upside-down! , The 600 pupils are mostly vic- tims of infantile paralysis, though a few are suffering from rheuma- tic hearts or T.B. joints. Around the little red school house, cottage wards are scattered in attractive gardens.

A bed with pink ribbons tied to the bedrails means that the child lying head downwards at an angle of 45 degrees is immobilized. Eleven-year-old Catherine Smith hasn't moved an inch for two months, but she smiles radiantly, at her visitors. She's learned, with the help of her teachers and a page-turning device, to overcome her handicap. "I've done all my school subjects and a lot more be= sides--just like this," she says. A teen-age boys has just taken his school certificate examination, and is training for a higher ex- amination before he begins to study law. A dozen "upside-down" children are singing in the courte yard outside the cottage ward . . . they've had a hard deal in life but they're grateful to the school and to their cheerful, friendly head- mistress, Elizabeth Bface, who's helping them to make good in spite of their disabilities.
