VARYING THE MENU stewing or braising and is >-0-0-0-9-0-0-0-0-00 WITH LAMB DISHES ~ "What shall we have for dinner tonight?" is the question housewiv- es must ask themselves every day of the year. Sometimes the answer is quite simple, but often the point is reached where there seems noth- ing left to choose, For just such times as that, there is no meat that offers such a range of delectable variations as fresh lamb. Nii - Lamb is available at all times of -the year, but is more plentiful and more economical at this time of year than at any othér season; and there aré enough cuts that can be included in the family menu without danger of monotony. 3 The leg of lamb is the best known lamb roast, usually weighing about six or seven pounds. It is the ideal roast for the company dinner or for the good-sized family dinner. A small roast," and still .a very choice one, is the shoulder which may be roasted as is, or it may be boned and stuffed, A -still. smaller roast, suitable for the family or two or three, is the breast of lamb, which may 'also bé, boned and rolled - or 3 stuffed. 2 REG Then there are the lamb chops, loin, rib, and shoulder, which are quickly and easily - prepared by broiling, The neck of lamb is a "nicely flavored cut to choose for very ~ economical. The lamb shanks or breast are al- '80 very often cut for stew, and what a tasty dish they make! The flavor of lamb combines well with practi- cally all vegetables, so stews 'made with lamb need never lack variety. Ground lamb makes 'an excellent meat loaf, one which has a flavor a little out of the ordinary. Season- ings such as - onion, tomato juice, ketchup, a bit of bay-leaf, -or miht may all be used in making a. tasty lamb loaf. SiS yt Ground lamb balls cooked in toma- to sauce, and patties wrapped with bacon and broiled are still ~ other ways to use ground 'lamb' to. ad. vantage. ' : aa « x x RE FINGER WAVING NOT AS 2 DIFFICULT AS'IT SEEMS "If. she has the right equipment and a good deal of patience, it is possible for any woman to care for her hair at home, - She can _ very easily give her scalp a hot: oil 'treat- ment once a week, Nightly brushing "is simple. If she wants to take the time and trouble to learn.the tech- nique, even finger waving "is pos sible." : To set your own hair, you ought to have a really good waveset lotion and a comb with fine teeth. After a thorough shampoo, followed by sev- eral careful rinsings, part your hair, comb it until not a tangle remains and, using a cotton pad, saturate it lightly with wave-set lotion that has been mixed with a dash of plain water or your fayorite hair tonic. Now, grasping the comb firmly, pull the hair forward just above the spot where you want the first wave to be. Hold this ridge with: the loft hand, forcing the hair below it "backward with the comb, held in the right hand. This makes one wave which should be pifned securely before you go on to the next. Incidentally, hold it. in place while you form the. next one. Repeat to the ends and finish there either with a backward swirl 'or ringlet curls, Ringlet curls are no trouble at all and, whether you master the finger waving procedure or not, may be psed between visits to the hairdress- er to freshen up the coiffure he ar- ranged and to give your head a neat, well-groomed look. "If you use patented curlers, follow ~~ Bh hh Ch 2 >> +> *@ directions. 1f you use a pencil, just wind small strands around it, pull the pencil out and pin the curl in place. = : " 3 * ® % ATTRACTIVE MEALS . The plainer and more inexpensive your meal is, the more pains you ought to take to make it look pretty. One of the easiest way to improve the appearance of the ordinary meat- and-potato meal is to arrange the potatoesy or their substitute in the form of a border with the meat in the centre and the other vegetables as a garnish on the outside. The border may be made of Irish or sweet potatoes, mashed squash or well cooked rice. . ] Greens, cabbage 'and sauerkraut, present a more inviting' appearance when served either in a molded form or in the form of a border. Arrange in a ring and fill the centre with irregular contour. Surround the bord- er with brown sausage cakes or crisp' link sausage. This saves dish- washing, too, because one serving dish does the work of three. ~~ Preparing Mashed Potatoes To 'make a mashed potato border, rice or thoroughly mash potatoes. Then for each two cups of mashed potato add 4 tablespoons milk or cream, % teaspoon alt and 2 table- spoons melted butter. More milk the more 'milk you can beat into the pctatoes the more 'nourishing. they light, Butter a deep pan or bowl on the outside and place it in the centre of a hot platter or chop plate. Press a mound of prepared potatoes around the bowl. Then remove bowl and fill depression with meat or fish or a creamed vegetable. : Macaroni, spaghetti and noodles make rice borders, too. Fricasseed chicken in a border of noodles with a garnish of candied sweet 'potatoes is inviting, : Stuffed tomatces, stuffed peppers, glaced and © buttered. onions, beet niarbles. and grilled tomatoes add beauty to any hot main dish.

'When half done. Remove from stock to hot platter and drop noodl- és into boiling broth. Cook 'twenty minutes, Drain from broth and ar- range in Bu border 'around chicken.

Serve in-a- separate sauce boat. | ; * : ~PLANT ROSES NOW In. the past, too often when select- ing roses for our gardens; we have considered only the beauty of the flower.

RESPONSIBILITY Ezekiel 33 : 7-16. -- . GOLDEN TEXT -- Each one of us ghall give account of himself to God. --Romans 14 : 12. * x * THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time--Ezekiel began to prophesy five years after the capture of Jehoiakim, i.e. in 692 B.C., and it is during this year, probably, that the instructions contained in chapter eighteen. were given. The message of chapter thirty-three was uttered a few years later, probably in 585 B.C. : Place--Ezekiel was settled, with other exiles at Tel-abib, by the River Chebar, a stream or canal in Babylonia. » * * "So thou, son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me," The trouble with many who ought to be true watchmen in that they are not close enough to the Lord to hear his word or their ears are not sensitive to his voice, and, consequently, they have nothing to give. "When I say unto the wicked, O wicked man, thou shalt surely die, and thou dost not speak to warn the wicked from his way; that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood will I require at thy hand." How many ministers today are real- ly warning wicked men of the ter- rible punishment in store for those who refuse obedience to God and re- ject his son, the Lord Jesus Christ? The only way in _ which God can speak to the wicked and warn him is through a yiéfded prophdc who will hear the Word of God, and be- lieve the Word of God, and will com- municate the Word of God. "Nevertheless, if thou warn the Wicked of his way to turn from it, and he turn not from his way; he shall die in his iniquity, but thou hast delivered thy soul." It is clear that God never promises that all the wicked faithfully warned by his messengers will actually turn from their sins. "And thou, son of man, say unto the house of Israel: Thus ye speak, saying, Our transgressions and our sins are upon 'us, and we pine away in them; how then can we live?" The calamities of their country weré un- paralleled and equally unparalleled must have been their guilt (Lam, 1 19-14; 2 : 13; 4 + 18; 6 : 7). And their calamities seemed final, their sin was expiable only by their com- plete destruction, "Say unto them, As I live, said the Lord Jehovah, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?" A yearning tenderness here manifests itself, still sceking, nctwithstanding all that has taken place, the. return of those who sur- vived in the way of peace. Ld "And thou, son of man, say unto the children of thy people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his transgression; and as for the wick- edness of the wicked, he shall not fall thereby in the day that he turneth from his wickedness; neither shall he that is righteous be able to live thereby in the day that he sinneth.," It is too true that the evil of man's past prolongs. itself into the future, and that sin cannot at once be done with, Yet we be- lieve in the forgiveness of sin; and this is the truth which the prophet desires to teach his children over- whelmed with the thought of their own evil past. "When I. say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he trust to his righteousness, and commit in- iquity, none of his righteous deeds shall be remembered; but in his -in- iquity that he hath committed, therein shall he die." Cf. 3 : 20; 18 : 24. It was a wide-spread delusion among the Jews that they possessed an hereditary righteousness that, whatever they might be themselves, yet the righteousness of their right- eous fathers, from Abraham down, would avail them, and, if they ex- perienced the contrary in their mis- fortunes, they held themselves justi- fied in murmuring against God. Again, when I say unto the wick- ed, Thou shalt surely die; if he turn from his gin, and do that which is lawful and. right, If the wicked restore the pledge, give again that which he had taken by robbery, walk in the statutes of life, committing no iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die." Cf. 8 : 18; 18 : 2T. For instances of a return to right- eousness on the part of the wicked, see 18 : 7; Ex. 22 : 1, 4; Num, 5 : 6, 1. "None of his sins that he hath committed shall be remembered against him: he hath done that which is lawful and right; he shall sure- ly live."

Apple growers in the Province of that they have dessert varieties of apples to sell and have competition to meet. : Ea ning, a barrell apple province, in contrest with British Columbia where only the finest fruit goes into boxes for long distance marketing. Ontario has grown not dessert apples, but utility varieties such as Spys, Bald. wins, Greenings, Stark, . Ben Davis and many others suitable for all. round family use. During these last been gradually yet surely changing. Thousands of new trees are coming into bearing-and these new trees are in the world -- Delicious and Mcln. tosh Reds. So far a market has been: found for the product of these on-coming orchards, but the time is here when Ontario growers will have to realize that the whole: Ontario market is needed for the production of Snows, McIntosh Reds and Delicious. Boy Scout organizations in the various cities have what is called an Apple Day when they offer apples for sale on the streets. Naturally they prefer to sell the choicest apples grown jn Ontario, graded, well.colora ed and sound. With some organiea« tions the McIntosh Red is preferred, for that varlety is at its best when the Apple Day is held about the mid. dle of October. As an immediate market for a large quantity of apples it may not be attractive, 'but its ad. vertising possibilities are tremen- dovs. The sale is usually given free window display space, generous news. paper publicity and often free radio announcements. In what better way could Ontario.grown McIntosh Reds be Introduced to Ontario consumers? The Boy Scout organizations in Ontario could handle close to 5,000 bushels, meaning more than halt a milion apples, sampled by roughly the same number of people. One would think the growers' organizations would be heartily in gympathy with the movement and give it every sup- port. So far they have treated it with indifference. One organization needing more than 150 bushels received no reply from one fruit growers' co-operative, refusals from four others, a refusal from an extensive individual grower and finally purchased from the seventh attempt. It would have been much easier to buy British Columbia MclIn. all the trouble and worry. Ontario apple growers are well or. ganized and well equipped for export shipments, but there is apparently no organization, no co-operation and no coherence that will nopularize Mcln. tosh Reds on the home market. The the past are altogether out of date when applied to the merchandising of Ontarlo's large production of a choice dessert variety. The growers should wake up!
