Dudley 'Enjoying Holiday In Sunny Florida Indian Rocks Beach, Florda, 14 Feb., 1951 Dear George: You can see by the above ad- dress we are in Florida where we have been for the past month and a half and in the bustie of leav- ing we forgot The Statesman. Att§checj is our cheque for two years. Don't change the address as we expect to be home by April, and pur mail is being forwarded. o! iMplmate here at this time OfYMis great today. The tem- perature is near 80, with clear skies and a balmy breeze. Suni suits, shorts and bathing suits are the order o! dress. We had some cool nights a few days ago. It went down to 33 and colder, far- ther forth, but we thought it ex- hilerating. Having always led a more or less active life I dreaded the thought o! having time hang heavy on my hands, in other words have nothing to do down here. Well, I needn't have wor- ried, as the days are flot long enough for me to do the things I want. Perhaps I arn getting lazy, or spending too much time fishing, of which I do a lot, and it is as good here as any place I have been. So don't forget your fish-pole if you corne here. In fact, if I don't stop eating fish I won't be able to get my shirt off for f ish bonies. We spent a very delightful af- ternoon at Penellas Counts' Fair. As both of us are of farming stock we were _;eenly interested in the exhibits. .JIuernsey, Jersey, Durham, Hereford and Brahma cattle predominate in this sec- tion. We only saw one Holstein, but there was a class of Devon cattle, deep red with long horns. I had heard father speak of themn, but I had neyer seen them before. The Brahmas are a foreign-look- ing beast, grey with long ears and a bump on their shoulders. There were no grain classes, I doubt if they grow it here. But the citrus fruit, and vegetable display, oh yes, and flowers, were beautiful. There was harness racing, also a midway, and in fact, it was just like our county fair at Orono, with the difference that we didn't know a sou]. The citrus crop is being picked and the groves are a sight to be- hold with their deep green leaves and yellow fruit.

It is flot un- usual to find the churches filled and turning people away well before time for service, and people hunting for a church that isn't filled up. Another thing we notice is the' absence of drunkenness and how seldom"one reads of car accidents due to drinking drivers. There are lots of places to drink as one finds cocktail bars ail over, but they seemn to be the least patron- ized. nothing like what one sees in Ontario. The building of motels. etc., bas just about doubled in the past year and seems to us to be well ahead of demand. One wonders how the operators could make a living. We saw a sign in front of a nice three-roomed beach apt. for $45 a month. My wife and 1 wish to be re- membered to our many friends. Yours truly, Floyd Dudley.

Do you* recaîl the old saying, "'A merry heart doeth good like medicine?" Being confined to bed is not much fun and it takes a great deal of thoughtful attention to sustain a patient. It may be a sympathetic smile or a cheery card whichi helps. Then, too, there is the prospect of an attractive tray three times a day. The restful atmosphere of a room also makes a differencc-freshly laundered bedclothes, an extra pillow, a box o! tissues and a thermos of wat- er. A bedside table placed con- veniently for the invalid may be the coffee table from the living room because, if the bed is low, he needs a low place for his book, dlock and whatever he needs. Clean the sick room daily and do it quietiy. This is often quite a job without raising too much dust or the patient's temperature. if you must be nurse and house- keeper, streamline your bouse- hoidf tasks so that you get plenty of rest too. When the tras' is brought to the bedside it should provide somcthing attractive and surpris- ing. By the way, a bed tray iî a gaod purchase for family use. On the tray place a colorful plas- tic mat and set something inter- esting amid the essentials such as a flower in a bon bon dish, a novelty saît shaker, a quaint little cream jug or individual ramekin dishes to hold the food. Cut the buttered bread in pieces easy to handle or make dainty sandwich- es garnished with cress. Serve hot foods hot and col items cold. There should be iio drip to the salad and sauces should flot mingle with other items on the plate. Patties made from lamb or veal or an individ- ual meat pie are the kind of food to make for the patient-on-the- mend. Foods for the sick must --e those requested by the doctor but when he suggests certain sof t foods you.r problem can be solvedI by purchasing baby or junior canned foods. There is a wonderful variety o! these from which to choose. For the convalescents dessert remember fresh frozen fruit (thawed ont), canned fruit salad, rosy baked apples, ice cream, sherbets. custards and other creamed mixture. Such treats encourage any patient to "sit up and take notice." Make mealtime an occasion; set a tray for yourself, tote it along and enjoy the meal to- gether-but don't talk about aches and nains. Chieken Broth 4 or 5 lb. chicken 12 cups cold water 5 stalks ceieny 1 bay leaf 2ý cup chopped onion !,2 cup chopped carrot 1 tsp. dry parsley 1 tsp Sait Caver the fowl with cold water and simmer for, two hours, then add the remaining ingredients and simmer for another hour. Permit the chieken ta cool in the broth, then nemove it. Remove the grease, hêat the broth and strain. This may be chilled again and served as jellied chick- en when the cubed pieces o! chicken are added ta it. Strawberry Bavarian 2 cups (i pkg.) frozen strawbennies 1- cup sugar 1i'z tbsps. gelatine 2 tbsps. cold water 2 tbsps. boiling watcr 1 tbsp. lemon juice 1 cup heavs' creami 2 egg whites ý8 tsp. sait Thaw ut strawberries and fla- vor with sugar and lemon juice.

The latest press comment about Ray appear- cd in the Toronto Telegram writ- ten by their music critic EdwardI Wodson. which reads: Ray Dudley, young Canadian pianist, played in Museum The- atre last evening before a large audience. Program included : Haydn's F. Minior Andante and Variations; Schumann's Phan- tasia Op. 17 in C. Minor: Chopin's Barcarolle. Op. 60, Waltz Op. 70 No. 1, Etude Op. 10 No. 10, Pol- onaise Op. 53: Iiszt's Les Funer- ailles-and encores. His technique is brilliant. He is a keyboard virtuoso though flot yet out of bis teens. Expression Eloquent In the Haydn Variations, which opened his program, were abundant evidences of a genius that gives the piano ani eloquence of varied expression that some of the world's very greatest concert pianists lack.'. swift scale work, covering somc- times a sixth and sometimes threc full octaves. ]ovely and often un- expected variants of light and shade give new grace to the mo.st commonplace of recurrent phras- es and passage work. 0f course, Haydn is always a singer, but this bright young pianist seemed to get right into the heart of of the matter. Here's hoping that he will neyer -grow up" enough to ignore this intu- ition. Schumann seemed second na- ture to him. He made the Phan- tasie his own particular prefer- ence in sympathy of mood. The Lerto was stately melodiousness -true Schumann, piano-lover with caress in the touch of him. Wl de Chopin Varlety Then came the group of Chopin numbers, varied enough to gra- tif.v ail and satisfy most. The Barcarolle sometimes disappoints -with its thirds and sixth-but it didn't at the hands of this young pianist. The Waltz wvas bright and airs'. The gentie melodious- ness of the No. 10 Etude xvas vers' welcome. excellent preface to the "Heroique" Polonaise. Thien came the Liszt number, with its tremendous thundering in left-hand technique. This, and two encores. seemed exactl ' the right conclusion to a "Great Matter." The young vir- tuoso wvon an ovation, and de- served it.
