THE CAMADIAN STATESMAN, IÈOWMANVnbE, ONTAMO Hello Homema1kers! A bowl off fragrant soup is a meal in itself- the kind of meal you need on a brisk day. Lots ai crackers and cheese beside the soup tureen are the best table companions. With a highly seasoned main course you can prepare a "smooth" des- sert. such as rice pudding, custard, apple dumpling or upside down cake. The best homemade soup is ai- ways the product of an over- night simmering stock pot. Thej fiavourful brew is a cembination of meat bones (beef shank), left- over gravy, vegetables and herbs.1 The stock is strained then the soup quickly prepared by adding fresh vegetables (graited or cu'bed), cooked meat or chicken and the final dash cf seasoning. Creamed soups may be prepared with a milk sauce base. The fa- vourite, cream off temato, will neyer curdie when the tomato is stirred into white sauce and it is best te use the same method in al cream soups. Quickly prepared soup may be a combination of canned soups or canned broth, if HARDWOOD FLOURS LAID, SANDED Iand FINISHED Floor Sanders Edgers & Polishers To Hon!

The prize for the best outfit went te Jean Turner and Rena Mutton who were dressed as bride and groom and had mest everybody guessing. There was only one wbo would not unmask and who disappeared shortiy after its ar- rivai, - a very elusive gbost.

This herror trail ended up in the coid ciammy basement where re- puisive-feeiing things were suid fromn hand te hand and a couple off ghastly gbest stories were read by Jean Nokes. Everyene felt better when tbey were allowed back upstairs into the friendliness off electrie lights.

For the peried January te May, the 1949 produc- tion was 234 million pounds great- er than in 1948, an increase off 4 per cent. Present indications are that the gap between 1948 and 1949 wiii equal the 17.2 billion peunds off miik produced in 1947. The percentage off the milk suppiy used for fluid purposes bas continued te decline in spite off an increased population, althougb in ternis off actual milk consumed there is littie change from 1948. Witb fiuid utilization. showingr littie change and total production higber, more milk has been avail- able for butter annd cheese pro- duction. The price relationship in 1949 has favoured cheese and as a resuit cheese production has increased 16.3 per cent above January te July over 1948 and creamery butter production is 1.3 per cent beiow the January te Juiy period off last year. In 1946 the cest off running Can- ada's schools averaged $105 per pupil. Ontario Teachers Aidj Exchange Teachers Hit by Devaluation Twenty-three wamen teachers from Britain' Australia, and South Africa, who are teaching in On- tarie this year on exchange and who have seen their salaries cut more than 25% by the devaluation off the pound, will receive volun- tary financial aid this Christmas from members off the Federatien off Women Teachers' Associations of Ontario. ,The announcement that the FWTAO, for the third successive year, will ask members tei sub- scribe te a special ffund for the beneffit off their overseas col- leagues was made at Toronto by Miss Elizabeth D. Taylor, The Federation's executive secretary. Miss Taylor pointed out that the piight off underpaid British teach- ers trying te meet expenses in Canada has been badly aggrava- ted by the international exchange situation, although in one or twe cases, local boards off educatien have made up the devaluation iess. Exchange teachers in Canada are paid f rom their home countries in sterling funds and, even at the nid rate off exchange, received lower salaries than Canadian teachers in similar positions. The wemen teachers off Ontario feel that the visitors should have an opportunity off seeing something off Canada during their stay and the original purpose off the gif t fund was te make this possible. However, the money gifts have now assumed even greater impor- tance, afffording in some cases the means off aveiding actual physical hardship. Last Christmas, $100.00 was given te each British woman ex- change teacher in Ontario public schools and the balance off the fund was divided among 'thema at the end off the year. This year, it is hoped that larger giffts may be made at Christmas, with a similar division off the balance off the fund next June. Officiais off the Ontario Depart- ment off Education have request- ed aid for the exchange teachers from overseas educationai author- ities, but it is considered unlikply that this can be forthcoming be- fore Christmas.
