PAGE TEN TRE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILLE, ONTABIO TflUESDAY. DEC. lZth. 1946 TmwnLogE.. Brandi Women's Aoaxlary Nolde Weekly luchres During the war years the Women's Service Club did grand work by remembering all per- sonnel in uniform from this town and vicinity, with boxes contain- ing cigarettes and various use- ful and much appreciated ar- ticles. At the cessation of hostil- Ities this club of 70 members be- came the Women's Auxiliary to the Legion, continuirLg on with the same President, Mrs. EcLward Large and officers as formerly. They are a very active organiza- tion and as their uiame implies they are organized to assist the Legion. Every Saturday evening dur- ing the year a euchre is held in the Union Hall with a good attendance of men and women who enjoy this popular pastime. The committee sponsoring the euchres is Miss Edith Joint with Mrs. Everett Welsh as assistant. These ladies are very faithfui in their duties-seidom bin absent--and to, Mise Joint goes the credit for well conducted gamnes. The proceeds at the present time are being added to a re- serve fund which is on hand to assist the Legion in furnishing their new hall. Anyone who enjoys a game of euchre will be male welcime by the committee and as well as having an enjoy- able evening they will have the satisfaction of knowing that their 25c admission wili be used for a good purpose. Prizes are awarded each even- ing for high scores. The winners last Saturday evening were:- ist, Mrs. C. Rund-ie, 2nd, Mrs. L. M. Dunn and 3rd, Mrs. A.

We often ,think of you, so this week we are addressing, the column to you. It is our sincere wish that you are well and that you keep well this winter. Make yourself a cup of hot cocon or hot soup in the miàd- morning and again before you re- tire. If you will persist in getting up early, the long winter days can be shontened by snacks, which provide not only extra energy, but a rest period. As to your regular meals, you have many more years of cooking experience than we have so you rt'aily know how to cook, but do not take too much trouble. Take your work less seriously. Plain foods cooked. in ways, that make them easily digested are best. This means that fried foods, hot barbecue sauces, planked steaks are no longer on your menu. Ahl meats should be ground twice to make them tender-except, of course, fish and poultry. Fatty meats and greasy food should be used with discretion. You are a champion soup mak- er. One of your old-fashioned soups can be the main supper dish. If you plan a fish dinner- steam it and serve with cream sauce to which you have added chopped hard-cooked eggs. Your vegetables should be baked two or th.ree times a week. Gelatine and. cottage cheese help to make finely chopped vegetables more appetiz- ing.

I wish you couid see it, and the clip- pings pasted on the back pages. An advertisement taken from her home town paper reads: "Cut out this ad., won't appear again-25 assorted choice gladioli, 25 cents. Currant bushes, 2 for 5 cents." The weights and measumes will be interesting to brides from ov- erseas: "One pound, 2 ounces of four is equal to 1 quart. Four large tablespoons are equal to 1/2 gill. Sixteen large tabiespoons are equal to one-haif pint. Ten pullet eggs are equai to i pound." "To wash carpents: Use 1 peck of potatoes for a large carpet; scrape them into a pail and let stand overnight in a pailful of water. Use a brush and scrub carpet with liquid. If brown in colon use juice of raw beef, too. When dry, brush with dlean broom.". "To restore frost-bitten plants; Pour cold water over plant, wet- ting every leaf thoroughly. In this state place it in the dark, care- fully covered with newspapem."1 "To preserve autumn leaves: Place sprigs between two news- papers and leave with a light weight upon them until moisture has been absorbed Then dip into wax which you have melted over water. Take off stove. Add a few drops of turpentine carefuily. Draw leaves into pan to coat with wax immediately on both sides. If too hot, leaf wili shrivel; if too cool, it wili harden too thick."

Ancient Legend of Christmas Holly Holly was much admired by the Druids who believed that its evergreen leaves attesteci to its favor with the sun god. Legends related that the crown. of thorns was piaited from the holly. Before the crucifixion the bernies were white but turned crimson like drops of blood. Another is that holly is hateful to witches and is therefore piaced on doors andi windows to keep out evil spirits. A more modern legend is that whoever brings the Chri.5tmas holly into the house first, either husband or wife, is the one who ,will mule the ensuing year. FREE HEARUNO CLINIC CONDUCTED BY F.
