HRONICLES %ingerFarm ^ C Ic.rkc Actiialiy I am right here at Gin- ger rami but in memory f am back a good many years, in a board- ing Iiou>e in tlie city of Moose Jaw. I was staying there alone . . . wait- ing. Partner had l)ronght me there, stayed a couple of days and then liad to return to our tempor- ary home fifty mile-; west of the city. I can see the boarding iiouse now . piano Crosswise in the living- room; big s<|uare window with a lovely window seat and lots of magazines. An archway led to the dining-room and a hall-way to the kitchen: behind t!ie curtain was what, 1 believe, is known as a con- tinental bed â€" Qjie tliat could be tipped up sideways and fastened to the wall for daytime convenience. Funny thing-; one remembers. I forget tlie name of the land-lady, an<l the other guests who were there and yet 1 remember these little de- tails in connection with the house â€" I suppose because they were diflfer- ent from anything I had seen at . lionie. 1 also remember standing afonnd in I lie hall about twelve o'clock one night waiting for a taxi to take me to the hospital. It did- set come . . . and it didn't comet Finally my lamlladly phoned again . . . ves, a ta.xi would be there in a few minutes, they had sent one be- .fore but it had got into heavy snow on a side-street and lost a wheel. Was I glad I was not in the taxi iJhen the wiieel came oflf! 1 finally reached the hospital without mishap. It was a small private hospital owned and operated by two sisters, one a nurse and the other a fully qualified dietitian. Everything w-as very nice, very ef- ficient and the meals ^and service just grand. I was able to be around the nest day and soon discovered there «i re only a few other patients, some witli babies: some waiting. 1 felt rather frieinre** and alone â- ^as iiuiced 1 w.t^. a >:raiiger m a WUJ IE WEATHER Says: Jack Frost has been painting the window panes again. 1 often wonder how he can get around so fast â€" no mat- ter where you go. tie's been. He must ride around on a high- powered itrange land, jusi six nioutns out from., England and Partner tifty miles away. But wirat probably contributed most to my lonesome- ness was the fact that among the ladiesin-waiting was a girl who was evidently very popular and with plenty of this world's goods. 1 re- member she had beautiful reddish hair, and wore a blue satin bed- jacket to match her blue satin eiderdown, l-'roni her Iio.spital bed â€" which didn't look like a iiospital bed at all, but a couch among a bower of flowers â€" anyway, from it she held court. There were many visit- ors and peals of laughter drifted in- to my little back room. She was de- finitely the glamour girl of the hospital, even lo the nurses. Per- haps I envied her a little ... I don't know. If I did it wasn't for long. The ue.vt day a baby was born to each of us. Daughter was just about perfect â€" just as any normal baby is to its mother. But Lady Blue Satin . . her baby was born dead. That is a terrible thing to happen in any language but this girl was apparently a spoilt darling and re- acted accorlingly. Before the baby was born there had been kidney complications. She had been put on a strict diet and yet had per- suaded her friends to bring her in some of the very things she wasn't supposed to eat. Nature plays no favourites but has a wav of catch- ing up with spoilt darlings. But for all that 1 felt awfully sorry for I.ady Blue Satin. When I was going out of the hospital she called me in and asked to see the baby. She looked at her and said nothing. My lady was still wearing blue sa- tin, her room still bedecked with flowers â€" but the glamour was gone. I never did know who she was. The hospital, as I said before, was just about tops for elSciency and comfort, and yet. a month after I left it was closed by order of the Health authonies. Several mothers liad died from blood poisoning, others were seriously ill â€" and all through infection getting into the hospital from an unsuspected source. Why do I think of all this just now ? Because this is the eve of Daughter's birthday. It is only natural to look back and think how mucti we have to be thankful ton .And 1 wonder what happened to Lady Blue Sitin! .\nd 1 wonder, is tlure a "pull" towards ilie district where one was born? Both our babies were born out West: when we came Kast it was largely on their account â€" to give them, as we thought, a better chance in life. .\ow Daughter is in Fort william and when Bob was in the army he thought B.C. was as i;ooil .1 place lo live as anv lie had ^•nick. ^M.-J1 J% By Tom Gregory ^H mm vou ONLY TO let HIM LIE IN PEACE, IT'S A PRETTY GOOD ?iGN THAT HE k^ COMFOR^ABLE-BOIH INJiPt ANC- OUT.

TABLE TALIS i/ cJatic Andrews. .MI througl the school year ihe.e are many thousands of boys and girls who find it impossible to get home lUiring the daily luncheon period; and I imagine that around now, what with the condition of the roads, this- number is greater than ever. .\nd for many's the long year the problem oi school lunches has bothered countless mothers. So today I thought you might welcome a few suggestions along this line â€" most of which have the endorsement of the Saskatchewan Department of Public Health, which made a special study ot the subject. So here KOe-. The Lunch Pail Wiiat kind? -Metal is best bi cause it must be waslied â€" and scaldedâ€" regularly. There >hould be air holes for ventilation and. of course, a handle for easy carrying.

Every school should havi facilities for reheating food, and these are easy ;o make. Just a large kettle of hot water â€" a canner serves the purpose very well. It is neces- .'ary to have a rack in the bottom to keep the jars off the direct heat. This may be made of wire, or may be just a piece of hoard, about â- â€¢â- a of an inch tiiicki with holes bored ill it to allow the water, to come np around the iars. Each child carries a jar of food in its lunch kit. If put on the stove to heat during morning recess. t!ie food will be piping hot by noon. Jars should be taken home to be washed, and refilled for the follow- ing day. What Foods for the Jar? There are plen;> llial aic Miilable.
