These women sug- gested tha' we ask ethen usens of Po.wer te be mindful et the num- jber of switches turned on un- ntcessarily. Wrs. V. M. recommends four tri ty ways te use the electric o)ven: (1) The average oven has accommodation for at least 2 on 3 dishes at once. It is necessary. heweven, te select dishes which need the same temperatune. A geod way te do this is te list your favourite dishs-quick breads, vegetables and dessets-under1 the temperatures at which each shot.Id be cooked. (2) Oven companions do net necessarily have te be table cern- panions. A dessert fan next day's lunch (custand,baked fruit, etc.) or even the ceneal for the next merning, may be in the oven al- ong with to-night's dinner. (3) Select baking dishes te fit the oven racks. Tee lange ones1 absorb more heat and stop circul- ation et heat. (4) Do net place dishes on low- er shelf. if you %vish toeds te brewn evenly,. Cooklng Short-Cota Mrs. G. T. peints eut ways te save electnicity using a hot plate or rangette: (1) A Skillet or chicken tryer with a cever is ide- al te use for a plate meal since the utensil is shallow and coeking time is neduced. (2) A set et three saucepans which fit togethen over one ele- ment is economical equipment. Cook 2 vegetables in one, pudding in another and peach fish in the third section. (3) The double houler is useful in this regard since food such as boilpd tongue or braised bisket may simmer in the lower part while a pudding cooks in the up- per part. (4) Quick-cooking d es se rt s rnay be prepared economically on surface elements.

(5) Top-of-stove scones or -bis- cuits can be baked in a heavy frying pan instead of preheating oven for a single purpose. (6) Bavanian sponges requine a small ameunt of heat. The gela- tint may be dissolved in a dipper over the tea kettle and the des- sert finished at the kitchen table accerding to the recipe. (7) Fruit dumplings are time and fuel-saving foods. Cook fruit in a littie syrup. Add 1 beaten egg, 1 tsp. sugar and enough milk to moisten 1 cup prepared biscuit mix. Drop by speenful on top of simmering fruit and juice. Cover and ]et simmer, without remov- ing lid, for 12 mins. Use wide saucepan s0 dumplings will not be crow-ded. (8) Pancakes are quick to cook -saving electricity. Serve with fruit juice or left-over stewed fruit. (9) Thicken cream sauce on partially cooked vegetables in- stead of making it in a separate saucepan. (10) Steam left-over slices of fruit boat ever vegetables and serve with cneam for an easy des- sert. (Intended for Last Week) Mn. and Mrs. AIt. Ayne are on a holiday te Miarni, Flonida.

Riddell At Women's Canadian Club Speaking te the members et the Bewmanville Women's Canadian Club, Menday, Feb. 16, in St. John's Parish Hall, Mrs. W. A. Riddell, Tononto, presented a pan- orama of the Demnien of New Zealand that was truly a revela- tien et the lite and customns of the people and the natunal beau- ties ef this eutpost member of the British Commonwealth et Na- tions. The impressions gained by the audience from the eloquent wvonds and phnasing ef the speak- er were as vivid as any that could be conveyed had colored motion pictures aceompanied the brilli- ant lecture. President, Mrs. L. W. Dippeli said that Mrs. Riddell was parti- culanly qualitied fer descriptive narrative atter a residence et se- venteen years in Switzenland, two in Washington, D.C., and six years in New Zealand. Her hus- band, Dr. W. A. Riddell, was chiet et the Canadian delegation te the United Nations in Geneva prier te the late war and later was pro- moted frem Washingten te be- corne Canada's first High Com- missiener te New Zealand for the duration ef the wan. Retunning te Canada one and a haît years aga ,Dr. Riddell xvas appointed Professer ef International Rela- tions, Faculty et Arts, UniV'ersity of Tenante. Living Abroad Presiding aven the family circle in these years et service abroad, Mrs. Riddell had eppertunity te acquire a comparative view et peoples and geogiaphy and in speaking et New Zealand she said that its natural beauties were un- matched throughout the globe and in many ways its people had pioneened in social legislatien now being intreduced te many other nations. Mrs. Riddell des- cribed the geography et New Zealand with its twe islands and then went on te tell et the tope- graphy et each betore turning to the social and pelitical intenests et the people. Surnounded by the waters of the South Pacific, it was natural that the beaches had an interest fer ahl the people for none lived more than 100 miles from the ocean. The 90-mile beach on the north island was a famous play- ground and nowhene was a social censcieusness exhibited. The ab- original inhabitants, Maoris, for- mcd 5 percent et the population and were ac2epted as equals by the whites, mostly Scotch and En- glish wha pioneered in coleniza- tien. -Great Forest The nerth forest et ancient na- tive trees was a reservation et great beauty. One trce had a circumference. et 43' the first branch et which was 42' ahove greund. These trees were sacrcd te the Maoris and this patriarch the God et the Forest. Other ferests were dispersed aven bath islands. Proceeding sou t hw a rd cne camne upon the world-farnous thermal springs. Some emitted slow-meving mud otten used for facial packs. Others had geysers et hot water and serne centained cold waten. It was a natural health resent and has long been uscd by the Maoris for coeking, washing an.d bathing. They place food in nets te be lowered into the hot springs te become perfect- ly cooked, Here is aise found the Bridai Veil, a cascad-e et waten that sprays dewn a succession et terraces. In the cold pools are taund the rainbowv trout. Llghted Caves Further along are the under- ground caves, claimed by some as the 8th wonder et the world. These are entered by boats peled silently by guides net te disturb the glow-worms that inhabit the caves and actua]ly light them Up. Any disturbance causes them ta shut off their lights. They are the only carnivarous species knewn te catch their prcy by tenueus webs. Themselves tuncd into insects they in turn are caught and devoured. This neference te cannibalism offered epportunity for Mrs. Rid- deIl te eutline the history et the Maoris who also practiced can- nibalism ton centuries. 0f Cau- casian enigin, t h ey migratedi Peeple of mony languages ore reached by the Ontario editor. French, Swedish, Polish, Ukrainian, Jewish people are able te vead their own Ianguage in their own papers; Through a free press, Ontario editors- ; ; and Canadian editors ; ;.are making valuable contributions as meullders of Canada Unlimited. IREWING COMPANY LIMITED through the Micronesia Islands in canoes to reach, New Zealand around 1300 AD. They found a paradise without the animal species, hence turned to cannibal- îsmn te secure a meat diet. This practice lessened atter the whites came with livestock and is new extinct. A powerful people, gen- erous and intelligent, they at- talned citizenship and have their [representation in parlia m e n t where their command of English *is far above the average. Native Maoris The Maoris were represented in every unit of the New Zealand forces in war and they won many decorations as fearless and great- ly feared warriors. Their con- tact with whites came when Tas- man arrived in 1642. Then Capt. Cook brought in pigs in 1769 and Whitfield attempted the first real colonization frorn Bnitain. Bitter wars raged with the Maoris for years before L.greemnents were reached ever land tenure and ci- vil rights. But today complete equality has ameliorated ail gnie- vances. Mrs. Riddell said that while New Zealanders are intensely loyal to their country, one of their main obsessions is -going home" or returning to the British Isies for visits and in habits and language they are even more "British" than the British. This spirit nurtured in the atmosphere ot beautiful New Zealand has carried the tradition of freedom to the point of greatly enlighten- ed legislation for the good of the whole people. The Government Fonmerly set up under provin- cial administrations the change to a central government was effeet- ed in 1876 and universal suffrage was gnanted in advance ot other nations. Two political parties contend for power, the National- ists and Labor. The latter has carnied much advanced legisia- tion as pure socialism. Notable are the health services free and obligatory to everyone unden a contributory tax system. Care of children is a prime censidenation and extensive playgnounds are provided everywhere to build up the health among all age groups. The pewerful Miners and Dock Werkers Unions contrai the se- cialist government and have been mainly responsible for the mod- ern extension of social legislation. Space does not permit a detailed report of the particular benefits accorded unden the health mea- sures but they are considered much in advance of othen coun- tries. Mrs. Riddell also gave an inter- esling -acceunt et the grandeurs of the south island and her des- cription deserves more faithful reporting. The s n ow- c appe d nounitains, the mirror-like lakes, the birds, the magnificent foliage and the great wea]th of flowers that bloomn every month of the year wene described with colorful fidelity. B4t with aIl shores, washed by the ocean to produce a tempenate climate, the visitor feels a penetrating cold in the .vinter months of July-August. New Zealand Homes Homes are inexpensive, usually of one storey and without base- ments and with ne central heat- ng. Often it is found colder in he house than outside but the nhabitants claimn that endurance of this character tends to rugged- ness and better health. Sports nre encouraged at eveny age level and state facilities make this healthful pursuit possible at ail seasons. At the conclusion of the address a question period brought out many ether sidelights ef in- terest which added te the main picture portrayed so wondertully nd applauded so enthusiastically by a mest appreciative audience. The presîdent, Mrs. Dippell and the executive tendered Mrs. Rid- cill a dinner in the Balmoral Ho- tel immediately at the conclusion ot the meeting. At the March mieeting the noted naturalist, AI- ex Kaye, Peterboro, will be the speaker.
