TIII RTIETII AN N UAL SESSION OF HIGH COURT. {It â€"â€" The Year 1808 Was the Most Pros- perous in the History of the Orderâ€".1 Largo Delegation in Attendance. The thirtieth annual session of the High Court of the Canadian Order of Foresters opened in the city of London on Tuesday, June 8th, with a large number in attend- ance, including High Court officers and delegates representing Subordinate Courts of every Province of the Dominion. It is just twenty years since the Order last met in this city, and the event is an im- portant one, not only on that account. but also owing to the fact that in this city just thirty years ago the society first saw the light of day. Here it received the name of Canadian Order of Foresters. Its founders were fortunate in the choice of a name, at once euplionious and patrio- tic. Sincc thou the Order has steadily grown in importance, until its interests are now firmly established in' every Province of the Dominion, and Its record a Splendid testimony of what can be ac- complished by Canadians in Canada. After the usual opening ceremonies and the appointment of the several standing committees, the High Court ofliccrs, sub- mitted their reports, which showed the Order to be in the most flourishing con- dition. »The High Chief Ranger, .7. A. Stewart, of Perth, Ont, after extending a hearty welcome to the representatives present, submitted his report, which was replete with facts and figures relating to the growth and extension of the Order during the last year. The year closed with a membership of 70,757. The increase in the Insurance Re- serve during the year amounted to 3502,- 249.67. On January 1, 1908, the amount on hand in this branch was $2,426,690.87, and at the close of the year $2,728,940.54. There were 591 death claims paid, amounting to $596,881.82. The Sick and Funeral Benefit depart- ment is also in a flourishing condition. During the year no loss a sum than $154,- 571.83, covering 5,856 claims, was paid in The amount to the credit of this fund at the close of the year was $142,806.70. The High Chief Ranger, in concluding his address expressed the hope that the meeting would be a pleasant one for the members and a profitable one for the Order, and felt that if ever there was a. time in the history of the Order when the members should all feel inspired with hope and confidence in the future of Cana- dian Forestry, that time was the present. In an inspiring address he urged upon the representatives to do all that in them lay to make 1909 the banner your of the Order. The report of Goo. Faulkner, High Sec- retary, covering the general work of the society was next in order, and showed in detail the large volume of business trans- acted through the head office in Brantford. The amount of insurance premiums re- ceived during the year was $597,275.16, which, with the large sum of $101,855.55, derived from interest earned on invest- ments, made the total receipts in this branch $699,151.49. There were 591 death claims paid, amounting to $596,881.82, leav- ing the large sum of $502,249.67 to carry to the Reserve Fund, which at the close of the year was $2,728,940.54. The Sick and Funeral Benefit branch of the Order also showed a marked adâ€" vance. The amount of fees received dur- ing the year was $159,159.61, and interest earned $5,174.49. The total receipts, there- fore, amounted to $164,514.10. There were 5,856 Sick and Funeral Benefit claims paid, amounting to $154,571.88, leaving 829,- 942.22 to carry to the Reserve Fund, which at the close of the year amounted to $142,806.70. There were 70,757 members in good stand. ing at the close of the year, carrying $71.175,500 of insurance, and the member- ship in the Sick and Funeral Benefit branch was 45,654. There were issued from the High Secre- tary’s office 6,758 insurance certificates, and 6,047 membership certificates, or a total of 12,805, and in addition there were endorse- ments made on 1,588 insurance certificates. The report of Robt. Elliott, High Treas- urer, showed the funds of the Order to' be in a most satisfactory condition. The receipts in the several funds were: In- surance, 699,151.49; Sick and Funeral Bene- flt Fund. $164,514.10; General Fund, 891,- 948.27. Total receipts, $955,594.56.

M The I'lomci ' oqflwmwmw SEASONABLE RECIPES. Rhubarb Shortcakeâ€"Make the dough as for strawberry Shortcake. Cook rhubarb slowly, using no water, until done. Flavor with le- mon or nutmeg and sweeten to taste. Split cake lengthwise and finish as with strawberries, Strawberry Jelly and Butter. Cap and wash two quarts of strawberries. Cut up three large stalks of rhubarb into small pieces. Place in granite or porcelain vessel with one pint cold water. Place on fire. When cooked pour in sieve to drain. Measure juice and place over fire. To each pint of juice add one pin-e of sugar. Put sugar in jar and place in oven to heat. Stir often to prevent burning. When hot, add sugar to boiling juice and cook rapidly until done. Test by dropping some in cold saucer. Put in glasses and cover. Butterâ€"Mix strawberries and rhubarb from which jelly was made and rub through sieve. To each pint of fruit add one pint sugar. Place over fire, cook until thick. Stir constantly to prevent burning. Put up the same as the jelly. PIE POINTERS. How to Make Pie Crustâ€"One- half cupful of melted shortening (butter, beef drippings, or lard, or a mixture of any two, or all), One-quarter cupful of cold water,‘ one heaping cupful of flour, a little salt. Method : Into a bowl put first the shortening. Next the water, and with a spoon stir into this the flour and salt. When mixed (which only takes a minute or two) set in refrigerator to cool. When hard enough roll. This is enough for both upper and lower crust for a large pie. Before putting into the oven brush top of the pie with milk. This will make it a nice brown color. ' ' When Making Sour Piesâ€"When making sour pies such as rhubarb and cranberry, it is well to add a cupful of raisins that have been previously soaked in water. They will take away that tart flavor be- sides absorbing the superfluous juices. To Bake Pie Crustâ€"When mak- ing a pic that requires the crust to be baked before putting the filling in it, turn the pie pan upside down and place the dough over the pan and bake in this manner. This prevents the crust from shrinking so that when it is removed and placed inside the pan with the fill- ing the pie will prove to be more satisfactory when out. “Never Fail” Pie Crustâ€"Two tablespoonfuls of lard, four tableâ€" spoonfuls of water, eight tableâ€" spoonfuls of flour, a pinch of salt. Quantities are easfly remembered by “two times four equal eight.’ FLOOR COVERING. Rugs that curl on edges can be made to lie flat by dampening curled edge and pressing with hot iron. When Beating Rugs.â€"â€"When beat- ing rugs it is an excellent plan to tie a handkerchief over the nose and mouth. This prevents the in- haling of the dust. Cleaning Carpet on Floorâ€"Take cornmeal, saturate thoroughly with gasoline, sprinkle quite heavin over carpet, and scrub With a broom. It will remove all dirt and dust, making the carpet look like new. Care, however, must be taken as to lighting matches and WlndOWS should be opened to air the rooms. Buying Carpet for Stairsâ€"Al- ways buy an extra yard of stair carpet. It can be shifted up or down a little every time it is taken up, so that it wears evenly. Otherwise the part over the treads will be worn completely through, while the uprights are as good as new. The surplus can be folded under at the top or bottom. Just try it; you will be delighted to find your carpet wear twice as long and Will not begin to look much worn till it is about gone, as it is all used alike. To Clean Mattingâ€"Do not forget‘ that matting must never be washed with soapy water. A strong solu- tion of salt water cleans matting and makes it look like new. In lay- ing matting place one or two thick- nesses of old newspaper under- neath it, for matting always lets dust and dirt through it like a sieve, and when'it has to be taken up the pieces of dust covered paper can be carefully lifted and burned. Widths of matting sewed together with a loose stitch, using carpet thread, make the floor covering look neater and wear better than when staples are used to fasten it down. ABOUT LINEN. When buying material for a white! linen suit it will be found more economical to get the two yard wide linen sheeting, as it costs less and'cuts to splendid advantage. Always buy linen handkerchiefs and towels and you can keep them a good color more easily than if cotton ones are bought. For a laundry bag buy one and a half yards of wide bleached linen toweling, double it, overcast the edges, and put a. stout tape draw- string at the top. This bag can be laundried often and so kept sweet and clean. The word “laundry”i written on one side and outlined in white would add to the appearance. If a piece of heavy linen, out large enough to cover the top of the dining table and extend two inches over at each edge, is neatly hemmed and placed over the large cloth a. part of each week the table can be kept neater with less launâ€" drywork, and the large table cloth will not wear out at the edges so quickly. Half a yard of yard wide natural colored linen will make a cool and durable cushion cover for summer use. Cut the linen in two and em- broider the top in a dull blue, us- ing any pattern desired (large initi~ als are pretty), and finish the edge with a blue and linen colored cord. KITCHEN TIME SAV ERS. Dissolve copperas in your drain pipes often to clean out slime and grease and to thoroughly disinfect them. Five cents"worth of Chinese blue dissolved in one quart of water makes excellent bluing and will last a family a year. Pour sauce around fish and pud- dings, not over them. A spoonful of vinegar in kettle of hot lard will prevent doughnuts from absorbing fat.
