STHAT'S MY BOY enjoyed walching the crowd the other iight at Spring Musicale. that is in the brief mo- ments when we could tear our eyes away from what was taking Place on stage. Parents were in- lent on pickin g out their off- spring,' and when they found themn, a happy smilc would spread over their faces. A smile of plea- sure and pride. It is one of the finest things to be seen written on the human face because love of cildren is one of the fincst instincts we have. There are a few agonizing moments on such a niglht. When a parent si15 lense and hopes his son or daughter won'l forget lines or steps. but it's a wondemful moment when it's al over and Jimmy or Teddy or Joan comes rushing up, saying. SERVICE ABOVE SELF Nowadays our good works arc apt to lack the personal touch. Our Service Clubs do a great deal for cippled cbildren and other needy persons. but only a few come mbt contact wilh the recipients of this aid. It is there- fore a hearî-warming thing to re- ceive a letter from a chihd who has been sent 10 hospital for care. and is now well again. Sucb a letter was received re- cenlly by the doctor who recom- mcnded a young lad for care by the Bowmanville Rotary Club. He passed the letter on 10 Rotary members, and we think il should be sbared with as rnany others as possible, so that people realize the womk being done ail the lime. With this in mind, the letter fol- lows: Dear Dr. Just a few lines to you bo tell you I was discharged from Sick Cbildren's Hospital and my hip is ail better now. Maybe you don't remember me. but I used ta live at Burke- ton. I went to Pumple Hill School when you helpcd me to get better. I arn so happy and thankful also my parents are too. Would you please for me thank the Rotary Club. 1 would like 10 drop in when I arn up Ihere. May God Bless you and your club. S- A "How'd 1 do, Mot her? Was i t ail*** right?

Thus, before you ever sink a spoon into that perfection of shape and colour and gratify the sense of taste, you have already enjoyed the berry through the sense of smell. Il is one of the senses we would do well to keep more alert and we could go on for paragraphs about the per- fumed air of a June momning. But, getting jack to the straw- 1:erry. you now have a dishfull sugared to your taste and float- ing in cream. Isn't it a thing of beauty? How càn you bear to eat this work of art? But at this point. gastronomie desire overcomes the esthetic sense, and down they go. preferably accomp- anied by plain bread and butter. There's only one dish in the whole. wide world that could be_ considered its equal. or to some. its superior, and that of course is strawberry shortcake! * 0** A FEELING OF ACHIEVEMENT We wonder how many wom- en really like to dlean silver? 0f course there are those admirable, methodical housekeepers who dlean the silver every Thursday, but most of us do flot faîl into that class. It's one of those jobs we are apt to put off. until some day we wish xve couldjust say, "Abracadabra," and everythinq would be gleaming again. Most housewives take pride in their silver pieces and flatware and to be able to be proud of our tea ser- vice or our table at ail times, a good silver polish, determination and a little elbow grease are necessarv. One of our local jewellers ad- vises that Electro Silver Polish is one of the best polishes on the market. It has been tested by the Government, and is guar- anteed to take off less silver than any other polish. Take a dlean, soft cloth and applV the polish. You can see how di rty the silver was by the black which comes off on the cloth. There is no use rubbing the silver with a dirty cloth. so keep changing your cleaning cloth. Then take an- other dlean, soft cloth, and pol- ish. And finally, wash the silver in hot, soapy water and dry with a soi, towel. This ensures the removal of every particie of sil- ver polish and helps to put a beautiful gleamn on the silver. And when it's ail done-ah! What a feeling of achievement. Don't you vow each time to do it often. and regularîr? But we ail know what spot is paved with good intentions. ý A P. S.-For a good, quick poiish if your silver is not 100 dirty. a treated cloth called Dry Shine is excellent, especially for flatware. and is used in most jewellery stores to keep the stock displayed gleaming. WEDDING KNIGHT.- REYNOLDS Ferns and snapdragons in pastel shades with blush satin bows de- signating the pews formed an effective setting in St. John's Anglican Church, .Bowmanville, for a wedding Sàturday afternoon, June 9, when Beverley Joy Rey- nolds, daughter of r4rs.

UW OimabÎm tn #,rmi Hello Homemakers! Now is the season that we look for freezing facilities to store packages of garden produce-a home freezer or a locker at a freezing plant. This modemn method of storing many foods retains true flavour and goodncss. Then too the pre- paration of produce for freezing is a sirnplified and perfected way of processing. Yet, it must be remembered that freezing does flot sterilize-the frozen fruit oe vegetable will only be as good as the fresh product. Briefly the processing method is the careful trimming and wash- ing, then scalding two to four minutes followed by rapid chili- ing two to four minutes. The packaging is done in moisture and vapour-proof boxes. Air is pressed from the top of cach in- ner envelope which is thcn seal- ed with a warm iron. Packages should be taken to locker plant within four hours, having pack- ed them in a box padded wefl with newspapers on all sidcs. TAKE A TIF 1. Select only fully ripcned, firm fruit or vegetables. 2. Culi out ariy bruised or too ripe produce to use f resh or make into a preserve for relish. 3. Prepare, then wash in cool water with care. 4. Let fruit drain on trays lined with paper towelling, kecping food cool. Then slicc fruit or pour directly into moisture-va- pour-proof containers. Carefully add cool syrup (l cup sugar to 6 cups water) to cover fruit. Try to exclude air from each pack- age and seal top with warm iran or sticky lape. Label. 5. AIl vegetables are sorîcd and washed thoroughlv, then dut ac- carding 10 size required. Il is ne- cessary ta scald in boiling water using only sufficient ta caver. Time Ibis blanching period ex- aclly using chccsccloth or a wire basket so the food dan be trans- ferred quickly int ice cold water. Chill thoroughly then package the vegetables in boxes using cither layers of dry saît or a brinc solution (l tsp. table saIt ta 1 cup water.) Exckude as much air as possible. Heat-seal the package if possible. Label. 6. Place packages of food in freezer at zero degrees or lower. THE QUESTION BOX Mrs. M. R. asks: Can we pack- age sliced beets and their wash- cd, cul tops in the same box. Answer: No. Packaged smalh beets and tops scparately. Cook the roots and peel after cooking. Blanch the tops for 4 minutes, handling about ane quart aI a lime. Mrs. S. B. asks: Is there any difference in the varicties of spinach for feczing? Answcr: The smooth leaf (c.g., Nobel) is casier ta wash dlean than the cinkly (Bloomsdale) but thc esuits are much the same if harvcsîcd before the bloomn. Blanch each quart four minutes then chili. Mrs. B. D. asks: Do you blancb corn before cutting fromn the col) or aftcmwamds? Answer: Both times. Rmv husks and silks. Blanch 5I mins. Cbill. Cut off the kernels and reblanch 3 mins. Chill quickly in ice water again. Pack in brine for best results. Mrs. H. J. asks: Have you ever had blackberries turn red when frozen? Answer: Experts tell us that blackberries which are not fully ripe may turn red and become sour. Anne Allan invites you to write to her c/o The Statesman.
