Possibly paint one or two "pink for girls" . * * WE HAVE AT HAND A copy of a recipe taken from Cassells Dictionary of Cookery, published about 1880 in E- land . . . for black currant zenges . . Here goes: "Mix 2 ounces of brown sug- ar with half a pint of black currant juice. Pour the liqu- id into an enamelled sauce- pan; add a tablespoon full of dissolved isinglass, and let it simaier gently for Ve of a hour. Pour it over small plates in layers about the eighth of an inch hi thickness and let these plates be kept in a. screen, a cool oven, or any warm place until the mixture is hard and dry. Then take it off, keep it in a tin box, with a sheet of pap- er between each layer, and stamp into shapes as requir- ed. These lozenges are• .very palatable and excellent for coughs, colds and sore throats." • * * WE ARE ADVISED THAT enamelled pans are the kind we call granite in Canada . . . and •that it is the Vitamin C that makes the lozenges 'good for colds ... Why are we pub- lishing a recipe i this column? Well, Pierre Berton does, and he's a famous columnist . . However, the real reason is that someone took the time and trouble to send it in to us . . . GFH, who does some of the sprightly bits of poetry used occasionally in' the News - Record. . had loaned us this cookery book earlier in the year . . . and we browsed th- rough it somewhat . but did not have time to devour it. . . So this way, we get the infer- • mation by bits and pieces . . . * * * PROBABLY WON'T publish the whole book .of course . . . We •recall it as a huge thing . . . weighing about ten pounds . . . By the way, isinglass is otherwise known as gelatin.

In- stalled over 15 years ago, the mechanism has worked quite well until re- cently, when increased capacity both by domestic users and by industrial firms, has gradually overloaded the unit. Repairs have been going on, and this aerator is now capped by a metal platform which replaces a 20 -inch thick cement one which was badly eroded. When this work is completed, the second aerator (in background, left) will be repaired.
