S. H. and Mrs. Pickup, was united in marriage by her father, assisted by her uncle, Rev. H. R. Pickup of Montreal, to John Charlton Ayling, Don Valley Drive, son of Mr. and Mrs. F. W. Ayling, Bowmanville. Palms and ferns formed the setting for the ceremony. At the organ was Her- bert Anderson and Miss Betty Pickup sang. The bride, given in marriage by her uncle, J. W. Pickup, wore a gown of white faille, with high square neckline and three-quarter sleeves, the billowy skirt falling in soft folds from a molded mid- riff. Her veil of illusion was ar- ranged with a coronet studded with seed pearls and she wore a cameo pin of her grandmother's. Her bouquet was of blue iris and roses. Miss Betty Pickup, in American beauty chiffon, was maid of honor, and Mrs. E. E. Thompson, Miss Joan Ayling and Mrs. C. McIlroy, all in minuet blue georgette, were bridesmaids. They had matching hats of flowers with shoulder- length veils and carried old-fash- ioned nosegays of red roses and pale blue flowers. William Mc- Dowell was best man and Gordon Wilson, C. McIlroy and Philip Ayling were the ushers. At the reception at Alexandra Palace, Mrs. Pickup wore a gown of gray and white triple sheer on fitted lines, violet crowned hat and veil and corsage of violets. The mother of the groom chose a gown of navy blue lace with cor- sage of pink carnations. For a skiing trip to the Limber- lost the bride donned a navy blue tailored suit, wine accessories and Harris tweed coat. They will re- side on Don Valley Drive. Mrs. C. R. Spencer and Mrs. Bower, Bowmanville, were among the guests. Downey-Kerslake On February 14th the home of Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Kerslake, Hampton, was the scene of a quiet but pretty wedding when their younger daughter, Vera Marie, became the bride of Mr. Charles Wallace Downey, only son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Wallace Dow- ney, Bowmanville. At 4 p.m. with Mrs. Harry Larmer of South Monaghan at the piano, the groom- to-be and his attendant Mr. Joe Barton entered the living room, taking their places before the mantelpiece which was nicely decorated with bouse plants and cut flowers. The bride, gowned in a street length dress of pale blue crepe, with corsage of or- chids and wearing the groom's gift, a gold necklet and locket, entered the room to the strains of "Here comes the Bride." She was accompanied by her father, who later gave her away, and took her place by the groom. Miss l'ora E. Kerslake, the bride's sister, who wore a street length gown of navy crepe with white trimmings and corsage of carna- tions, was bridesmaid. The cere- mony was performed by Rev. W. Rackham. At the close of the cere- mony Mrs. Larmer played softly "Blest be the tie that binds." During the signing of the regis- ter, Miss Eileen O'Connor, Port Hope, sang "Because," after which the guests enjoyed a social time before partakig of a buffet lunch. Mrs. Rackham poured tea and Miss Florence Lander, Toronto, and Mrs. George Kerslake, assist- ed by Mrs. Larmer and Miss O'Connor, served the guests. The newly married pair left for a short trip west and are now at their home near Bowmanville. Others present were Mrs. Don Cameron, Mr. and Mrs. F. R. Kerslake, Miss Reta Kerslake and Mrs. Joe Barton, Bowmanville, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Stuart, Hamil- ton, Mr. H. Larmer, South Mona- ghan, and the bride's mother Mrs. C. J. Kerslake. The flowers worn by the bridal party and cut flowers for house decoration were a gift from the bride's uncle, Dr. Jabez H. Elliott, Toronto, who was unable to be at the wedding. Before leaving Toronto where she had been on duty for several months, the bride was a guest of honor at a miscellaneous shower at the home of Miss Greta Mollon, and on Feb. llth at a meeting of the young ladies' classes of Hamp- ton when they presented her with a walnut end table and casserole. Take a Tip 1. Wax or laundry soap rubbed on dresser drawers that stick, will cause them to move more easily. 2. To separate two tumblers that have stuck together, fill the inside glass with cold water and place the bottom glass in a pan of warm water. 3. To loosen a rusty screw, heat tip of a poker until red hot, then hold it against the head of the screw for a minute. One applica- tion usually loosens the screw- but let it cool before you use the screw-driver to take it out. 4. Before cleaning out the ashes from the furnace, throw wet tea leaves over the ashes. It will pre- vent the dust from flying and save unnecessary work. Question Box Mrs. M. P. writes: "Please pub- lish a good recipe for dumplings." Dumplings 1 cup flour 1/ tsp. salt 1 tsp. baking powder 1 egg about ¾ cup milk Beat egg slightly and add the milk. Mix and sift the flour, bak- ing powder and sait. Drop by spoonfuls into the boiling stock. Cover and cook. Test with a knit- ting needle (when inserted it should come out clean). Mrs. P. C. B. asks: "What is the value of the addition of an egg to a pot roast or chopped meat?" Answer: - The egg coagulates around the pieces of meat and helps prevent the escape of juices. Mrs. R. M. asks: "Does long cooking toughen kidney stew?" Answer: Yes, they are tender after a few minutes' cooking. Vegetables should be parboiled and then added.

PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE In the good old days of childhood, When our lives were full of joy, How we looked for coming man- hood, And we'd cease to be a boy. Then it didn't seem to phase us That when such state we'd at- tain, We might then be looking back- ward, Wishing we were boys again. Strange, youth always lives in futures, 'Cause it doesn't have a past, While old age lives in the gone- days, For its future didn't last; So both youth and old age error, In the effort that they give, They should both learn that the present Is the only time to live. -RALPH GORDON. 628 Crawford St., Toronto. Students To Go On Farms And War Jobs Plans for releasing primary and secondary school pupils from classes April 17th to work on farms or in jobs directly connect- ed with farming are confirmed in a department of education mem- orandum this week. The farmers of Ontario are said to need this year 40,000 help- ers to plant, cultivate, harvest and take care of the crops," the state- ment says, "in order that pupils may serve in that way, as well as in cheese factories, creameries, canneries and other plants engag- ed in work on farm products, and at the same time earn their schol- astic certificates, the department bas issued certain regulations. Conditions under which pupils can gain their standing are: Regu- lar attendance until April 17; completion of courses of study in required subjects and recommen- dation of a mark of at least 50 per cent on each paper, and 13 weeks' employment in farm or factory work. High school pupils, on urgent request of their prospective em- ployers, may leave school April 1 if they have ranked high in their class work. Certificates will be granted the pupils by the department of edu- cation on receiving from their principals proof that the con- ditions have been fulfilled. Just What Did You Have For Breakfast? Are you a Dagwood Bumstead, grabbing a cup of coffee for break- fast and dashing madly out the door? What did you have for break- fast this morning? Orange juice and coffee? Maybe just toast and coffee. Perhaps nothing at all? That's a bad habit, according to the Health League of Canada. Between dinner and breakfast is the longest gap in time that comes between any meals and when you get up in the morning your stomach is nearly empty. Therefore, it is pointed out, you have no food to cail on as a source of energy all morning, and your work and all your activities will suffer. The Health League advises a fruit or fruit juice first for break- fast. Next, you should have either cereal with milk or cream or some cooked dish of eggs or meat, like sausage or bacon with or without pancakes. Toasted whole wheat bread is better than ordin- ary white bread, because it has more Vitamin B. One of the most important food elements in breakfast, for aduits and children both, says the ex- perts, is milk Plenty of it should be available for cereals or cocoa or just to take plain, along with the above-suggested food. THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1942 THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO PAGE FIVE TRIMLY TAILORED Young Musicians DisplayTalents St. Paul's Lecture Room was filled Thursday evening with par- ents and friends to hear a recital presented by pupils of Mrs. Reta Dudley, well known teacher of vocal. and piano. In many in- stances it was a "try out" in a public performance for a number of the pupils who will be taking their Conservatory of Music ex- aminations this week. The pro- gram of 39 numbers was further proof that the fine reputation Bowmanville has had for many years of being a musical com- munity of exceptional talent was well maintained. Those in at- tendance were heard making many complimentary and flatter- ing remarks about the pupils and their capable and painstaking tea- cher for the delightful program and musical treat. Besides the en- tertainment each patron contribut- ed in a financial way to the war effort by buying a war savings stamp, being the admission fee. The opening number was a uni- son chorus, "The Victory Song" by L. Taylor and R. Dudley, with these taking part: Grace Hall, Jean Malcolm, Eleanore Wight, Dorothy Nichols, Ruth James, Donalda Creaser, Esther Barnett, Helen Luxton, Arline Northcutt, Louise Pearce, Velma Pearce, Madlyn Wilcox, Joyce Woodley, Patsy Dinniwell, Helen McEvoy, Ruth Hutchinson, Joyce Grant, Barbara Rolph, Billy, Donald and Jean Dudley, Ray Dudley, Isobel Cruickshank, Francis and Elea- nore Crowe, Edith Woodley, Law- rence Morton, Glen Tamblyn, George Brown, Kenneth Davies, June Luffman, Doreen Jeffrey, Joan Rice, Constance King. Space does not permit making individual comments, neither do we feel equal to such a task, so only the names of those taking part will be mentioned. Piano solos were contributed by Lawrence Morton, Constance King, Eleanore Crowe, Francis Crowe, Muriel Stevens, Isobel Cruickshank, George Brown, Ken- neth Davies, Joyce Grant, Doreen Jeffrey, Barbara Rolph, Joan Rice, June Luffman, Helen Mc- Evoy, Edith Woodley, Billy Dud- ley, Ray Dudley, Ruth Hutchin- son, Patsy Dinniwell, Glen Tamb- lyn.

Mr. Wilfred Carruthers made a genial and capable chairman. $35 was raised in War Savings stamps. TRINITY Y.P.U. Trinity Young People's Union on Monday evening was in charge of Missionary Convenor Hazel Rundle. A timely and thought- provoking address on world con- ditions was presented by Rev. J. E. Griffith who entitled his ad- dress "Light in the Darkness". Basing his remarks on comparison of evil and truth as found in the hymn "Once to every man and nation" Mr. Griffith dealt with the many countries of Europe and Asia that have in some cases totally abandoned Christianity and in contrast the work now be- ing carried on in the world's most populated country, China. Evil and sin seem prevalent every- where, but though the portion of truth and right be very small that portion sways the future and will gain strength as time passes on. Worship service was conducted by Thelma Schlievert with Ada Clark, Jack Dunn and Rev. Grif- fith assisting. Vice President Amber Morton was in charge of the business per. iod. On March 9th the Executive of Oshawa Presbytery will be present. Meeting on Monday night will be under convenorship of Bert Johnston's group. 0 Your mannish-tailored Tip Top suit or coat expresses YOU in every detail from the British fabric you select from the hundreds available, to the trim, smartly hand-cut lines.
