Mrs. Laura Ings In
Clinton Since
Home Was Burned.
Mrs. Laura Inge has been stay=
Mg with Mr, and Mrs, E. Epps in
Clinton, following the fire which
destroyed her Varna home on
March 3. She is undecided about
whether or not to build again.
The Ings house was at the
northeast corner of the village,
and was possibly 80 years old.
Mrs. Ings tells us that it was.
1.)Uillt by Dr, Moffatt's father. Mr.
and Mrs, Ings moved in just about
40 years ago.
The high wind on the morning
of the fire, is thought by Mrs.
Ings to be one reason for the ex-
tent of the blaze. She had been
using a Quebec heater and rose
that maiming at 7.30 as was usual,
to care, for it. Mrs. Ings noticed
the pipes on fire, and started to
go to McClinchey's Store to get
help, but found them on their way'
to help her. Jan Broeze. and Bill
MeAsh, also were of great assist-
ance_ to her.
The chimney fire had been seen
from the Bill Taylor home, and
they had phoned McClinchey's.

more Irish and their descendants
living in New York than there are'
in Dublin. Although potatoes are
grown in great quantity and serv-
ed 1n many ways, potato breads.

Sift together into a bowl the all-
purpose or pastry flour, baking
powder, salt, nutmeg and sugar.
Cut shortening in finely. Measure
cold mashed potato and mash with
e fork until smooth; stir into flour
mixture. Make a well in dry in-
gredients; add milk and mix light-
ly, adding a little more milk if
necessary to make a soft dough.
Turn out on lightly-floured board
or canvas and knead until smooth.
Pat or roll out dough to a scant
%-inch thickness; cut into rounds
using a 21/z-inch floured cutter.

ly with flour; heat until flour
becomes slightly golden. Bake

den on both sides and cooked in
the middle-12 to 15 minutes.
