ARNE ARAN AN AT i Pr TA SAAN Ny A -- A + By Mair M. Morgan HOT LUNCHEON DISHES MAKE WINTER EASIER Making left-overs Into a main course that is appetizing and not too fat:producing, is the daily mir- acle the housewife is expected to ac- eomplish. All sorts of tid-bits can be ereamed and served on toast, of course, but that combination will emphasize "bumps" if not pack on too much weight. An omelet that keeps its shape is an inspiration to everyone and doz- ens of clever main courses evolve from a fluffy omelet. This recipe makes an omelet that holds its shape even when cooling. The secret is, of course, that a small amount of min- ute tapioca is used to' bind the in- gredients. * Fluffy Omelet 2 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca. 3-4 teaspoon salt. ' 1-8 teaspoon pepper. 8-4 cup milk. 1 tablespoon butter 4 cgg yolks, beaten until thick and Jemon-colored. 4 egg whites, stiffly beaten Combine quick-cooking tapioca, salt pepper, and milk in top of double boiler. Place over rapidly hoiling wa- ter, bring to scalding point (allow 3 to bh minutes), and cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add butter. Re- move from boiling water; let cool slightly while beating eggs. Add the egg volks and mix well, Fold in egg whites. Pour into hot buttered 10-in. tender, then add limas, Melt butter, add flour, stir until smooth, then add hot milk; cook, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened, then add lima mixture and seasonings. Lima Croquettes 2 cups cooked, dried limas, 1% cup cream. 14 teaspoon salt. 14 teaspoon poultry seasoning. 1 tablespoon tomato catsup. 13 teaspoon pepper. 14, teaspoon powdered sage. 1 egg, slightly beaten. 1 cup fine dry bread crumbs. Rub limas through a coarse strain- er. Add crumbs, cream, salt, pep- per, sage and egg. Shape in the form of small cylinders. Roll" in crumbs, dip in 1 egg beaten with 2 tablespoons cold water and again roll in drumbs. Fry th deep hot fat (890 degrees F.) until brown, then drain on soft paper. Place on serving plate and garnish with rings of fried apple. The cozy fireside season is here. Sandwiches, cake and coffee are in order. Afternoon tea, bridge par- ties, lunches at night -- all call for these indispensables. i Hefe are some excellent recipes for the home baker who likes to try new ideas to please family or guests.

Robinson, pictured as they arrived in New York City. his wife and their son, Manny, JESUS DECLARES HIS PURPOSE release to the captives." Sinners are we have heard done at Capernaum, do also here in thine own country." Godet paraphrases Christ's words as follows: The question which you have just put to me is only the first sym. ptom of unbelief. From surprise you will pass to derision. Thus you will quickly arrive at the end of the path in which you have just taken the first step. 5: "But "of a truth I say unto you," There were many windows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when there eame a great famine over all the land. 26. And unto none of them was Elijah sent, but only to Zarephath, in the land of Si- don, unto a woman that was a widow" In this verse we have the fullfillment of the statement in the preceding verge. The reference here is to 1 Kings 17 : 1; 18 : 1. (see also James 6 : 17.) "And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the pro- phet; and none of them was cleansed, but only Naaman the Syrian The reference here is to 2 Kings 6 : 1-14. It is to be observed that, in both of the incidents which the Lord gives from the O!d Testament, the mercy of God to Gentiles outside of Israel is illustrated. "And they were all filled- with wrath in the synagogue, as they heard these things." This whole oc- currence, whenever it happened in our Lord's ministry, was but a fore. shadowing of his treatment after wards from the whole nation of the Jews, - "And they pose up, and cast him forth out of the city, and led him unto the brow of the hill whereon their city was built, that they might throw him down headlong: We have a similar attempt upon St. Paul's life (Acts 21 : 31, 32). 3 * «But he passing through the midst of them went his way." The passing of Jesus through this mob without any harm was undoubtedly a miracle. Haggis Is N of Scotch Haggis is generally regarded as delicacy only among the Scots, Most Englishmen have but a vague idea what the fearsome thing is, yet in the Middle Ages it figured largely in the dietary of the workers. It originated, however, not in England, nor in Provencal France, where a very similar "pieds et paquets is still cosidered a delicacy, but from classic Greece.

PLACE -- Nazareth in Galilee and Capernaum on the Sea of Galilee, both in the northern part of Pales- tine. "And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up." The town of Nazareth, now known by the name of en-Nasirah, was situated in Lower Galilee: about five and one-half miles west of Mount Tabor. "And he en- tered, as his custom was, into the synagogue on the sabbath day." The synagogue was a Jewish institution, tounded' after the Captivity, and never mentioned in the Old Testa- ment, A synagogue could not be erected in a place, unless it contained ten men of leisure who could devote their time to the synagogue worship and administration. "And stood up to read." Standing to read was the usual practice excepting when the book of Jsther was read 'at the visit of Pur- {m, then the reader..might sit. "And there was delivered unto him the hook of the prophet Isiah. And he opened the book, and found the place where it was written." The first lesson read: was from the Law and known as the Parashah, while the second lesson was from the pro- phets and was known as the Haphta- rah. Probably the first lesson had pre- viously heen read by another. "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, Because he anointed me." The name Christ is the Greek translation of the Hebrew word Messfah, both meaning anoinfed. God akdinted Jesus of Na- zareth with the Holy Ghost, and with power (Acts 10:38). "To preach good tidings to the poor." From the Greek word here translated good tidings derives our English word evangel, Often in the New Testament--it is translated by the better-known word gospel. "Ie hath sent me to proclaim sin, see, e.g. John 12:40; 2 Cor, 3:14; 4:4; Eph. 4:18; 1 John 2:11, "To set at liberty them that are bruised." Thus does the coming of Christ as sume at once that sin improverishes, imprisons, blinds, and 'bruises, . "To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord." A year that is acceptable to the Lord is a year in which the Lord accepts sinners on the basis of the salvation which he has provided in Jesus Christ, "And he closed the book, and gave it back to the attendant, and sat down." The minister or chazzan, who had handed the hook of Jesus, was the one who received it back again. It was his duty to take the Scriptures from the ark and to put them back again in the ark after they had been used. "And the eyes of all in the sy- nagogue were, fastened on him." There was something in the look of Jesus here that held the people spell- bound for the moment, apart from the great reputation with which he came to them. "And he began to say unto them." The reader, interpreter, and preaches. might he one, two or three persons. Here Christ was both reader and preacher; and possibly he interpreted as well. Any member might discharge these duties Hence it was always easy for Jesus to address the congre- gation. When he became famous as a teacher, he would often be invited to do so. "Today hath this Scripture been fulfilled in Aour ears." This was a most astonishing assertion. The prophecy of Isaiah had been uttered almost seven hundred and fifty years before this. "And all bare him witness, and wondered at the words of grace which proceeded out 'of his mouth." "And they said, Is not this Joseph's son?" Two courses were open to the inhabi- tants of Nazareth: either to surrend- err themselves to the divine instinct which, while they listened to this call, was drawing them to Jesus as the anointed; or to give place to an intellectual suggestion, allow it to suppress the emotion of the heart, and cause faith to evaporate in criti- cism, d "And he said unto them, Doubtless ve will say unto me this parable, Physician, heal thyself: whatsoever them." A "Head Office" Staff of 18,000 (Woodstock Sentinel-Review) When Queen Victoria placed her plump forefinger on.a map of Can- ada and' designated Bytown asthe capital, her late majesty no doubt regarded it as a central location-- which #t is if you count the Arctic regions. But if it had not been chos- en a seat of government, Ottawa to- day .would likely be a lumber town in a class with Hawkesbury or Blind River, perhaps overshadowed by Pembroke. The fact is that desig- nation as the capital conferred the equivalent of an impressive array of industrial concerns, so far as em- ployment goes. What city would not covet factories giving work to 1.- 000, 2,000 or 5,000 hands, even if the plants were tax-exempt? That is the enrollment of personnel in cer- in departments of government at Sova The statistics, as found in a hooklet issued by Ottawa Journal, include the following particulars: Agriculture Department staff of venue, 726; 628; House of Commons staff, 750; Department of the Interior, 521; De- partment of Marine and Fisheries, 'Department. of Mines, 450 each; De- partment of National Defence; 675; Post Office Department, 1,200; Pub- lic. - Printing, 1,060; Public Works, 2,660; Depattment of Trade and Commerce, 802, There are many smaller totals in the list, and by way of summary the article states: "Ottawa today is the home of an army of at least 18,000 men and wo- men engaged in the mass of detail that makes ups the actual business of goverment --"the biggest single business in Canada, . . . large figure we must add the extra population represented by. the.
