The Huron Expositor, 1960-12-08, Page 4ItrsoN VXPCAITOR, SEAFORTH, ONT., DEC. 8, 1960 Fun for the Family Sugar 'n spice and everything nice are the ingredients used to make these beguiling Gingerbread Men. And the recipe is so easy to make the kiddies will enjoy themselves trying their hand at baking too. The wee ones, who are too small to actually mix the Candied, or well -drained mar- aschino cherries. Sift together three times, the all-purpose or pastry flour, bak- ing powder, baking soda, salt, gin- ger and cinnamon. Cream short- ening; gradually blend in granu- lated and brown sugar. Mix in batter, can join with the rest of the family in stamping out the little men with a cookie cutter and then decorating them in any way they choose. The most lop- sided gingerbread man has spe- cial charm to youngsters if it's their very own. The cookies have a crisp, chewy texture and are delicately spiced to suit youthful tastes. Imagina- tion will play a key role when it comes to decqrating the ginger- bread men. Confectioners' icing can be used for the buttons and collars and to outline the figures. Dried fruit, cherries and nuts can be used for the faces. If there ,are a few scraps of colorful cloth in the sewing basket, use,_them to make tiny ruffs around the neck, or a funny hat. For. a comic ef- fect, beards and moustaches can be made by affixing shredded co- coanut with a little icing. These cookies can be used for decorating the tree if you wrap them in clear cellophane and tie them to the tree with bright rib- bons. In order to make sure that the decorations are not eaten up before Christmas, it might also be a good idea to bake an extra batch or two of gingerbread men and set them aside for desserts and nib- bling.

Suggest Rules For Christmas Safety The following rules for the care of Christmas trees to ensure a fire -safe Christmas are listed by the Industrial Accident Prevention Association of Ontario: Cut a growing tree or tryto buy one that hasn't dried out from pro- longed storage. (When too dry, tree branches are brittle and shed needles easily.) Stand the tree in water or snow outdoors until you're ready to use it indoors. Bring -the tree indoors just be- fore Christmas and take it out as soon afterwards as possible. (De- cember 26th is recommended). The larger the tree the greater the hazard, so don't get one any larger than you ,need. Just before setting up the tree, saw off the trunk at an angle at least one inch above the original cut. Place the freshly cut tree trunk in water and keep level of water above the cut the entire time the tree is indoors. (Check the water level at least once a day for ab- sorption and evaporation.) Do not use candles on the tree or nearby where there is any chance for an open flame to con- tact the tree or combustibles piled beneath the tree. Use only electric lighting sets that bear the C.S.A. (Canadian Standards Association) label. Check lighting sets each year be- fore using for frayed wires, loose connections and broken sockets and replace defective parts. Be sure . the fuse on the elec- trical circuit you use, is not over 15 amperes. Cord sets with a fuse on the plug, bearing a C.S.A. label, are available. If any extensive holiday wiring is planned, call a competent elec- trician; don't try to do it yourself unless you are so qualified. Don't plug too many cords into one outlet. Make certain that all tree light- ing is turned off before retiring or leaving the house. Support the tree well. Don't put it near sources of heat (fireplaces, radiators, etc.) or where, standing or fallen, it could block the• way out of the room and out of the house in case of fire. BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY!

Bill Strong Top Winner ';AAs 4-H Awards Presented A Seaforth district youth was acclaimed as Huron County's 4-H all-round 4 -H member. Bill Strong, 20, RR 2, Dublin, was pre- sented with the Elston Cardiff Citi- zenship Trophy at the 13th annual Huron County Achievement Night held at the South Huron: District High School, Exeter, Friday night. The youth received the distin- guished award for not only his out- standing 4-11 contribution, but also for home and community activi- ties. With a total score of 962 out of a possible 1000, Bill captured the C. S. MacNaughton trophy for having the highest 4-H score in the county. He also walked off for the third. time in his 4-11 career with the Senator Golding show- man's trophy as the champion 4-H beef showman. Bill, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Strong, has been secre- tary of the Seaforth Junior Fair for the past two years. The event saw the 362 members of 25 clubs receive a total of $2,285 in prize money, as well as trophies, awards, crests, certifi- cates, wrist watches, pen and pen- cil sets, as well as leather show halters. Howard Pym, RR 1, Centralia, president of the 4-11 Club Leaders' Association for Huron County, as chairman, told the large audience that every 4-H member can not be a first prize Witmer, "but the member is rewarded beyond the prize money he or she receives here tonight. The accomplishments you have made during the club year, the friends you have made and worked with, as well as the knowledge you have gained, will enable you to become a better citi- zen in your community." He ex- pressed appreciation to the On- tario Department of Agriculture for the leadership its officials have given, and to.,the 4-H Club leaders who helped guide the 4-H program, Larry Snyder, chairman of the South Huron District High School Board, extended a welcome to the 4-H members and their parents and friends. Guest speaker was James H. Kinkead, Goderich, Pub - lice School Inspector for North Huron. For Don Grieve, associate agri- cultural representative for Huron County, the night was the climax of a successful year's work, as he directed the 25 clubs. He made the presentation of special and cash awards to the members. The degree of completion among 4-H members was 93 per cent, said Mr. Grieve. "The chief objective of any 4-H club is to provide the members training in. good citizen- ship, and one of the best yard- sticks of a good citizen is that -he carry through to a successful completion that which he stai`ts," said D. H. Miles, agricultural. re -- presentative for Huron County, in referring to the high degree of completion experienced this year. The William A. Schmid, Luck- now, trophy was presentedfor out- standing achievement in 4-H Grain Clubs to Bob Fotheringham, RR 3, Seaforth, who was the exhibitor of the world champion beans at the Royal Winter Fair this year. Bob also brought honors to his home county earlier this fall by 'being selected as one of seven delegates from Ontario at the Na- tional 4-11 Club Week at Chicago. Kenneth Papple, Seaforth, re- ceived the John W. Hanna trophy for his champion swine showman- ship for the third consecutive year; Bill Kieffer,, Wingham, for his county champion 441 grain exhib- it, accepted the R. T. Bolton tro- phy for the second successive year, and Murray Coolies, RR 5, Wing - ham, who last year held the high- est score in the North Huron Swine Club, received top placing again this year, thereby qualifying for the Stratford District. Yorkshire Breeders' award. A young Brussels girl,• Barbara Turnbull, received the Marvin. Howe trophy for the highest score in 4-H Swine Clubs, the Savauge trophy, for her county champion gilt, and the Stratford District Yorkshire Breeders' • award for the highest score in the Seaforth( Swine Club. Other special awards were re- ceived by Thirteen -year-old Ross Wight - man, Belgrave, who received the Warden's Novice trophy, present- ed by Reeve John S. Durnin, West Wawanosh, for the first year 4-H members with the highest score. For the highest score in 4-H beef calf clubs, Don McKercher, RR 1, Dublin, was presented with the J. A.
