7 - St N. » k TABLE TALKS Candied Orange And Lemon Peel Candied Orange and Lemon Peel Several Day Method The peel made by this Several Day Method stores well.

Cover again with water and boil until tender. .\ longer period is re quired to tendeftze lemon peel than or.inge peel. •• Bi-ain. Cut peel in strips. Bring sugar, corn syrup or honey and -^i cup water to boil. Cook peel at low, temperature in this to gently absorb most ot the syrup. Cover. Cool overnight in the syrup. The following day, reheat slowly to •ir.imering point. Cool again in syrup. Reheat and continue this heating and cooling process until nio=t of the syrup is absorbed which will probably take several days. Drain. Spread out to dry on rack or waxed paper until surface syruff has been absorbed â€" one day or more. Roll in granulated sugar, or shake peel in paper bag with little sugar. Store in covered container. Orange Salads Serve these orange salads with a salad dressing made by blending cre.im cheese with lemon jr.ice â€" just enough to make a creamy con- sistency. Orange Cranberry Salad Place mound of cranberry jelly On lettuce bed. Circle with orange slices. For slicing, choose navel oranges. They have no seeds and are firm-raeatcd. Orange Salad Piquant Circle 8 or 9 orange slices on lettuce bed. Top with 5 or 6 small balls of cream cheese to which a little horseradish has been added. Orange Waldorf Salad Combine chopped celery, uiipeeled pieces of apple, orange sections and raisins or chopped walnuts. Blend with a cooked dressing or a little mayonnaise. Serve on lettuce. Last-Minute Gift Ideas For Children Hopeless Case An attractive young Government worker made a practice of arriving at the office a few minutes late «very day. Repeated warnings by lier supervisor had no effect. Fin- ally, in exasperation, he announc- ed: "Miss Brown, I am tired of talking about your tardiness. I am, therefore, suspending you for one Ao' without pay. When would you Mce to take the day?" "Well, H it's all ri8*t vith you." ^t replied, instantly, "I'd Mke to •tt it up being late." If you've overlooked some child whom you'd like to remember in some simple way, have your car- penter (or your handy husband) •aw out large blocks about six by four by one and one-half. Pile them in a carton covered with gay red paper and your three or four year old will be delighted, and spend many happy hours with them. In- cidentally this is the type block educators favor for small tots, since they are easy to handle at an age when coordination hasn't been high- ly developed. Or paint an old tin bread box with red and green stripes, or cover with gay Christmas paper and fill with all sorts of small games such as the small fry like: dominoes. Jack-straws, darts, mar- bles, etc. It will take on the form of a treasure chest in their eager eyes. » » • Take an old bread board, some meat skewers and empty spools. Paint each pair oi' spools and sticks a different color: red, green, blue, yellow, etc. This is a fine way to teach the the tiny children colors and is comparable to the peg-boards used in the kindergartens. Holes lor the gay spools can be made with brace and bit. annwev C« PrrvluuB Pujuit* U. S. Naval Air Unit HORIZONTAL of respect 1,7 Depicted is 50 Mature insigneof U.S. 92 Airplane S.

In many cases, the parents were to blame; but there is another cont- ributing factor - -and that is radio. W h y firms sponsor some of the proi:rar.:mi.s they do, when they could sponso* something that is entertaining, educational and in- formative, is beyond me. Crime stori :s, chillers and thril- lers have no place on the air, in my opinion. After listenfng to such a programme a kid can go off to bed in a state of jitters or with the idea that leading a tough life can be e.xciting and loaded with adventure. We have been listening to some of these programmes lately and what we heard was a lot of bosh â€" whatever that is. There is no- thing to them except the ingredi- anis tor a good night-mare. How many of these programmes are there? We don't know, but these are what we hav^; heard during the past week: The Shadow, The Her- mit. The Clock, Inner Sanctum, The Whistler, and The Green Hor- net. Police sometimes admit that juv- eniles get their criniey ideas from these programmes â€" and yet a good honest firm will pay the "shot" to ha e them ptit on the air. 1 don't mean to bite into the way another writer makes his living â€" but we feel that there isn't a writer living, who is dish- ing out this trash, that couldn't give the kids something Viore con- structive to think about and still make the same good money do- ing it. Personally, we feel that crime sturics and heart chillers should be taken off the air. The Winter Fair The Royal Winter Fair, the ma- jor allraction of the jcar for the country boys and gal.s, has made its debut and departed for another season. The dailies were Kill of stories and pictures of prize win- ners and contestants, many of them being of the younger set. .^mong them we noticed a group of young ladies who were involved in judging cattle no less. Many young people from other provin- ces were on hand for the national livestock sho •, such as Kenneth fruseman of K.B. who took part in judging the Hereford heifer ^^OPSY byOlAOVS MRKER class. Joy Patterson of Calgary who brought her horse down from the west to participate. Margaret Patterson of Manitoba helped judge poultry and of course local Junior Farmers were in on the show too. Makes Good On The Farm A young man by the name of Dave Clark, 18, left the city two years ago to take up farming. Working on a farm at Milton, he is so enthused with the work he â-¼ows that nothing will make hira go back to the life of the white collar and flashy cravat. In his second year of this work he won the championship of the Halton County Junior Farmer's Calf Club, which we think is a fine record. Dave knows that farming is a hard life, and means long hours of toil, but his aim is to make farming a real business and a paying busi- ness â€" and it looks as if he is on the way, TEEN-TOWN REPORTERS Parry Sound â€" Audrey Harris â€" The House ct Zues and the House of Atlas, recently sponsored a dance, taking over the Fri.-N'ite Club. The hall was decorated by mem- bers of the house before the dance and the colors of red and white of the .^tlas and the blue and white of the Zues added much to the scene. Prizes and refreshments were also pr. ided. The boys and gals left oft their old duds and real- ly slicked p. The prizes for eli- mination dances, flash light dan- ces, etc., went to Barb Gandy and Ken Peachy. Sylvia Rogers and Bill Daly. Elvira Hamilton and Harvey Elliott, Deb Barker and Ed. McGill. The teachers were there as of- ficial hosts and hostesses, but they really wanted a good time . (I thinli.) The money raised went to t'lie Athletic Society for sports equip- ment. Please; Please! Please! Once more we ask the corres- pondents tor this column to print all names appearing in their copy. People like to see their name print- ed correctly and we would hate to see the n me of Joe Doe coiup out as Joe Shmoe, so in the future please try to remember this and it will cut our errors down to a minimum. Many thanks, gang, for your continued efforts. Assurance Plus "Does your wife iiave lier own way in the home?" "Well, she writes up her diary a week ahead." CHRONICLES OF GINGER FARM By Gwendoline P. Clarke it would be interesting to really know which created the greater stir last week â€" Princess Eliza- beth's ivedding or Canada'., "auster- ity"' program. Personally I thought one counter-balanced the other. I 5Ui)po6e it is hard for some people to understand the British reaction to the wedding â€" many think ii was a dreadful waste of money â€" money that shouldn't have been spent with Britain lacking so many of the necessities of lite, and they wouldn't listen to the broad- cast for that reason. 1 don't think people who have that opinion know â- .ery.mucli about real hardship. It is easy to criticize under those circura- st:;nces. Naturally people who are hungry want food for the body but if people are iumgry long enough they also crave food for the soul â€" So that they may endure their physical discomforts more easily. « • • Princess Elizabeth's wedding gave the British people â€" and many Canadians â€" colourful, heart-warm- ing romance â€" that is. food for the soul. Listening to that broadcast did something to a person â€" one was conscious of a tightening in the throat. One forgot the bride was England's future queen â€" at the moment s'.e was just another girl, marrying the man she loved. And that, I think, was also the feeling behind the cheering crowds on that memorable day. Elizabeth not only symbolized the British throne â€" she symbolized Romance. I am sure there were many persons in England who went back to their homes that day, ate an insufficient and unin- teresting meal with less resentment because of that little bit of colour that had come into their lives. And after all. if the Princess had been married in a cotton dress, would it have added one ounce to the aver- age person's ration? * * • And now. what about Canada's austerity program. That is not so easy to figure out, is it? Personally I think the description "austerity" is a travesty of the word and almost an insult to people who really know w> at austerity means. On the other hand it is a little early yet to really appreciate what the outcome will be. It will probably affect the farming class less than urban citizens but even in the country it may have un- foreseen repercussions. I know it has brought a sudden end to one of my fond hopes for the future â€" that is an electric refrigerator. And, oh dear, how I was hoping that next summer 1 might be spared that ever-lasting running upstairs and down with food to and from the cellar. But I suppose if what has to be, must be â€" and who am I to grumble? Certainly I shall go with- out a refrigerator a little longer rather than pay an extra hundred dollars to get one. One gets used to dis.ippointments these days. Last Saturday, for instance â€" Daughter had bought tickets for us for the Royal Winter Fair, then Partner developed some eye trouble â€" the inflamation just about closed one eye, and 1 had a touch of neuralgia so that little outing was cancelled. By Saturday night Partner was in bed and I was listening to the hockey match â€" the fact that the Leafs trimmed the Bruins was a little consolation. Then on Sunday morning Daughter came home for the rest of the week-end â€" and that helped still more. * « « Well, it looks as if winter is try- ing to pay us a visit at last. So far we haven't done too badly. Son Bob has got all his ploughing done and the worst is over insofar as our new highway is concerned. It will be even better if we get a frost. To walk down the road now means carrying about ten pounds of clay along on each shoe. That is hardly conducive to comfort. Torriccili invented the first baro- meter in IR4n.
