RTE -- PAGE EIGHT THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE MONDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1948 Post-Nuptial Shower For Mrs. Johnston Mrs. James Johnston, formerly Miss Nelly Johnston, a recent bride, was entertained at a surprise mis- cellaneous shower given by her friends and fellow workers at Alger Press, last week. . The home of the Misses Lorraine and Glenna Chatterton, of Hillside Avenue, was ttily decorated with white bells, pink and white stream- ers. A cake of "Best Wishes" cen- tered the attractive bridal table. Over a decorated chair colored ballpons were hung and the many useful gifts were displayed in a de- corated box. At the beginning of the evening's activities the bride was presented with a corsage of pink rosebuds and white carnations, A bridal scrap book presented to Mrs. Johnston was both appropriate and amusing. During the evening's program pi- ano solos by Miss Barbara Dodwell were enjoyed, contests were also played, The winners were Mrs. Gor- don Pearson, Mrs' Mervyn Bobier and Mrs, Richard Orr. 'Those assisting the hostess in serving refreshments were Misses Iris Morrison, Verna Graham and Grace Cameron. Meat Stretching Baked Rice Jumbo Fall weather puts heavy duty hours on the casserole contingent in the kitchen. With school activi- ties and cooler weather everyone is hungry enough to eat a "bear." and it would be hard to find an- other combination that would be 50 good, so easy and filling as this one, and a recipe that calls for so little of precious meat. If you have it once, you'll have it often. Baked Jumbo One cup uncooked rice; one qt. canned tomatoes; one large onion or two small ones, sliced thin or chopped; one-fourth pound salt pork and one-half pound beef, ground together; one and one-half teaspoon salt; one-half teaspoon, pepper; one-half teaspoon thyme; one teaspoon sugar. Mix all of the ingredients togeth- er and pour into a large greased cosserole dish--at last a two-quart size. Cook and bake in a 300 degree oven for two hours or until the rice is tender. The meat flavor is cooked all the way through the dish, the rice is tender, and the seasoning's delic- ious. It will serve eight, at least, or rather will make eight servings without scraping the bottom of the supply.

CLOSE UP OF Winchester, By ELIZABETH RICHMOND Winchester, Hampshire, was the old capital of England in pre-Nor- man times. One of the first sights you notice is an immense statue of Alfred the Great, the Saxon king who lived in the ninth century. Set on a block of granite, the great stone figure with upraised sword, turns his back to a rim of green downs. The statue was erected to celebrate the 1,000th anniversary.of Alfred's death. It stands in the main street, opposite the Guildhall and nea rthe Bishop's paldce which tradition asserts is the site where Alfred's scribes compiled the Anglo- Saxon Chronicles. He ordered the book to be kept on a chain and the original copy is now at Corpus Shan College, Cambridge Univer- y. At the other end of the narrow main street, which terminates with a hill, is the 600-year-old West Gate which shows openings where molten lead was poured through on to unwanted guests. When you go into the old castle close by you will be shown a large round oak table which is called King Arthur's Table. It was made only 600 years ago but it commemorates King Arthur and his 24 knights who are believed to have lived in Britain in the sixth century. In the castle William the Conqueror stayed and SPECIALS Santax Toilet Tissues--4 for .... Resistol Vitamin Capsules 50's $1.29, 100's $2.29 Powder Pads, Reg. 10c 29¢ .

Phone 760 Ancient City here centuries later the great Eng- lish explorer Sir Walter Raleigh (1552-1618) was tried on a trumped up charge of conspiracy. 15th Century Stone Cross Half-way down the main street is the city's ancient House of God Begot (now a shop) which faces a stone cross erected in the 15th cen- tury, carved with the figures of King Alfred and William of Wyke- ham, Bishop of Winchester. Wil- liam of Wykeham founded the great public school for boys in the 14th century which lies on the out- skirts of the city. He gave it the motto "Manners maketh man" and Eton was modelled on its organiza- tion. You pass through the passage behind the cross and wander through the quiet cloisters with its old houses to the great cathedral, the longest medieval one in Eng- land. It is associated with St. Swithin, Bishop of Winchester in the year 852. On July 15th, 971, when it was arranged to transfer his remains to a shrine outside the cathedral it rained violently and continued to rain for 40 days. This gave rise tothe saying which you hear still in England that "if it rains on St. Swithni's Day it will rain every day for forty days". Every aspect of Winchester has individual charm. Old houses, hos- pitals, quaint passages and crooked alleys challenge you everywhere and each has some interesting story connected with it. - Try a Times-Gazette classified ad today~You can be sure it will pay.

Roosevelt told a meeting of German women | that Sovietism must not be allow- ed to fill the vacuum left by Naz- ism, In a speech prepared for delivery in German to a meeting sponsored by the League of Women Physic- jans, the widow of the war-time President of the United States de- clared Sovietism must not be al- lowed to "carry on any of the same methods which created the fear and hatred of the other systems." She was referring to Nazism and Fascism "The words Nazism and Fascism will forever be looked upon with horror by the free peoples of the world and Sovietism must not be allowed to fill the vacuum," she declared. . "If a system is good let it be voluntarily adopted by other peoples to their need, not imposed by foreign pressure." Mrs. Roosevelt, a United States delegate to the United Nations, ex- pressed sympathy for the suffer- ings endured by Germans, particu- larly by German women, in the af- termath of war.

It was. about teachers, parents, dates, Kisses, 'going steady" and clothes . . . full of fun and surprises. Here are some of the results: Parents: The girls preferred par- ental discipline tempered with with common sense to a "let them do as they please" attitude among parents. They do not love parents less because of control and disci- pline, but appreciate the fact that their parents' efforts to "bring them up right" helps smooth their path through life. "I'd rather my | so I'll know what to do," stated a sophomore. Teachers: Same story. Preference was for "stricter teachers who make us learn something." 'We have no respect for too-lenient teachers." parents would teach me how to act, | Kisses: They are not necessary for popularity, or to show your ap- preciation for dates, A kiss should not be expected during "first" dates. Going steady: A girl has more fun "circulating" than going steady with one boy, they agreed. It isn't fair to a boy to take all his date- time by going steady with him if you don't really like him a lot. "But when you meet a boy you like better than anybody you've ever dated, that's the time to go steady," was the verdict. It makes sense, too, doesn't it? Clothes: Blouses and skirts, es- pecially ballerina length were vot- ed top favorites. Some preferred straight skirts, some liked them better with pleats. : (For tops on the easy care of oily or blemished skin, send a stamped, self-addressed envelope to Elinor Williams at this paper.)* New books acquired by the Oshawa Public Library during the summer: Stories From the Past World Without Visa, Malaquais; The Queen's Physician, Maass; The Flames of Time, Kendrick; "Bright Feather, Wilder; Savage Prodigal, Bercovici; Melissa, Caldwell; On Jordan's Stormy Bank, Rowell: Headless Angel, Baum; Annie Jordan, Po:t; Miss Abbjie's Honor, Fortune; Asylum for the Queen, Jor- dan; Red River Shadows, Knox; James and Joan, Fremantle; Testament, Balchin; No Bugles Tonight, Lancaster; Big Freeze, Partridge; She Sword of I1 Grande, Creed; Devil Lord's Daughter, Baume; Parcel of Rogues, Lane; Storles of the French Foreign Legion, Wren.

Hello Homemakers! Every busi- | ness has its busy season and home- | making is no -exception. Many women find early fall a period in which a hundred and one duties require their attention. Canning is in full swing, the children are off to school again, which means ren- ovating and renewing their ward- robes, the house requires fresh- ening up or decorating and throughout the household it is a time for stock-taking. Club meet- ings and social activities begin to absorb the all too few "off-duty" hours. And there ou yare--at your busiest. It is probably at this time you fective housekeeping po in ters which make for efficiency and help you get results with minimum ef- fort. So today we offer tips worth clipping for reminders at any time. Take a Tip 1. To freshen your upholstered furniture, wipe with clean cloth moistened with cleaning fluid. Then, at once, rub briskly with dry clean cloth. 2. Painted floors and other painted surfaces will wear longer if you wax them lightly as soon as the paint is dry. One note of warning, however, before repaint- ing wood remove every trace of wax. Use paint cleaner or turpen- tine. 3. If you have a new- stove or refrigerator, keep the enamel sur- face new looking and sparkling by washing only with soap and water. Never use a cleaning powder or any abrasive. {The soap and water treatment given frequently will prevent the surface from becom- ing scratched. 4. Dust your furniture with a moistened chamois, then rub with soft cheesecldth. Have chamois wrung out tightly so it will be just moist. Polish with dry cloth and there will be less frequent dusting. 5. In gluing together parts of a piece of furniture, remove all the old glue first by scrubbing with hot water. Dry thoroughly. Heat the glue in a tin can set in a saucepan of water. Apply evenly and clamp or tic the broken part in place and allow to dry for at least 48 hours. 6. Wrought iron lighting fix- tures and stair rails should be given a protective coat of liquid wax. (Do not use wax on fireplace ac- cessories, as it is inflammable). Rust stains can be removed before waxing by rubbing with kerosene, then scouring with steel wool. 7. If laquered brass finish dulls, remove it with denatured alcohol (poison) and apply fresh coat of water-white transparent metal lac- quer with a paint brush. 8. Hamamered aluminum will be bright and shining if washed in mild soapy hot water. If stained, use a fine steel wool pad (impreg- nated .with special soap) over a cotton cloth and then rinse. Never use strong soap or alkaline scour- ing powders because they darken and discolor aluminum. 9. Plastic screens must be taken down and washed with garden hose or a brush and soapsuds. Dry thoroughly in a breeze before stor- ing away. 10. The care of pressed wed walls which have a synthetic resin finish is quite simple. Regular dusting and occasional wiping with a damp chamois are all that is re- quired. 11. Cement (concrete) floors in the basement are often damp. It makes it easier to care for them if you use a special paint or a wear- resistant surfacing.

Britain to Present Year of Gaiety in 1951 London -- (Repters) -- Present day uncertainties will not affect | Britain's determination to stage a great festival in 1951 to attract hundreds of thousands of visitors from all over the world. Gerald Barry, festival director £aid in an interview that 1951 for Britain will bé a year "of gaiety, festivity, of the fun and games which the bitter circumstances of | the last few years have 'denied us." {| London will "rid herself of some | of her proud but ugly scars" and be | restored "to the gaiety she once | knew," Barry said. | The plans he outlined include a | central exhibition of British life | and of British contributions to civ- lization, travelling exhibitions in i provineicl cities, separate Scottish and Welsh exhibitions and an eight vwezis London festival of music, op- era, ballet, theatre, music hall | shows and films, The exhibition will not be a trade fair, Barry said. Rather it will tell | the story of British life and "pre- | 82% 8 coche , and imaginative : ( ritish achievement,. of what is past, present and to come." :ua3 and. Coloaies will | The London Central Exhibition = be part of a "bright and gaily= colored modern city" in miniature on the much blitzed south bank of the Thames. Present plans call for comple- tion in 1951 of a new concert hall and a river frontage. Because of the shortage of con- ventional building materials, the | central exhibition hall will be con- | structed of a new type of fabric | which may show the world a new | technique of exhibition construc | tion and display, Barry said. ! HOUSEHOLD HINT | Paint colors that add to the ap- paren. spaciousness of a room are called "receding colors." They are | the blues, grays and greens. Light cream and ivory and oyster white also are space-giving. In dissolving starch on wash days, use cold or tepid water, never hot water
