Beattie Furniture Knitting Takes a Back Seat When it's time for a cup of tea and this spicy Mincemeat Tea Ring, fresh from the oven. Served with Marmalade Butter, this easy-to-make quick bread is enjoyable on any January day. BY DOROTHY BARKER By LUDWIG HEIMRATH Canadian Race Car Driving Champion ti All too often the snow catch- es you with your car half- w a y prepared' for it. Maybe you've looked after the r,a,dia- tar with •anti- freeze and changed to win- ter - grade oil Ludwig but not touched Heimrath any of the oth- er points that should be checked' as well. Driving in winter is something like getting ready to race a car on a closed circuit course. We in racing have put our cars through a rigid safety check before they even allow us to put our cars through a trial run. You've perhaps seen race drivers passing the scrutineer's check. All equipment—brakes, steering—on a race car must pass this checking before we can drive onto the main course for trial runs. You should have done the same before the win- try conditions caught up to you but it still, isn't too late. Make sure that tires, brakes, steer- ing, wiper blades, exhaust sys- tem are in good' order before winter is any older. Sale Motoring If mincemeat is a orice-e- year treat at your house, how about opening the oven door for it in January. Spicy and sweet, it can 'bring special goediess to foods for hearty winter` enjoyment — end when. you team it up with dairy -footle and kitchen staples, you'll be rewarded with wonderful pies, cookies and other goodies, that boast of mincemeat's tan- taiizing aroma, To start things off, we sug, gest you let mincemeat take over the starring role with pumpkin, next time you bake a pumpkin pie. Using the chif- fon, version, you'll find that a layer of mincemeat, 'twixt crust and pumpkin, will make a superb company dessert, and something nice • and new to serve after an evening of bridge too. Or try adding mincemeat to your next batch of drop cookies. They'll be warmly welcomed by all hands who dive for the cookie jar when samara out each day. And, for you and your after- noon tea pals, we recommend a Mincemeat Tea Ring . . . to enjoy, along with the chatter, when- a neighbour drops in Or when you and friend hus- band finish the January 'bud- ,get debate, on a cold post- Christmas evening!

To make the pie, use canned mincemeat or, to give a milder flavor, use a half and half mix- ture of mincemeat and thinly sliced, pared cooking apples. More raisins may be added. Top with a second' crust, a lattice or trellis design, or simply use pastry cutouts made in the shape of 'bells, stars, or Christmas trees. For a double trellis or twist- ed lattice cut a 12-inch circle of pastry into %-inch strips with a knife or pastry wheel. Moisten the rim of the bottom crust with water. Fasten 1 pastry strip to the rim, twist the strip, and attach to the oth- er side. Repeat, using 4 more strips, spacing them about 11/s inches apart. Then repeat with 5 more strips placed across the first to make a trellis design. Seal each strip tightly to the rim. Make a fluted edge or press with a fork. Brush the rim and strips with cream or melted butter. A single trellis effect can be made similarly to the above, using only 7 twisted strips, all in the same direction, To make a simple lattice ef- fect, cut the strips with a pas- try wheel. Leave them untwist- ed. The pastry cutouts are easy. Simply use a cookie cutter in a shape appropriate for the Yuletide season. Arrange the designs so that one will fall on the centre of each piece of pie when it is cut. For best re- sults, choose only one or two designs per pie. In World War Two, 16 Cana- dians won the Victoria Cross and 70 in World War One; since the award was instituted hi 1856 there have been 98 Canadian VCs. Reviving An Ancient Industry In Thunderbird Park in the heart of Victoria, the Govern- ment of British Columbia is re- viving the ancient industry of the Heide Indians in the carv- ing of the great totem poles. In a long shed' the Haida elders are teaching the young adults the art of transferring the mythology of an ancient race into wood. The park has a wonderful display of the totem poles, of the great poles which framed their house, and of mythological sea creatures that played a great part in their religion, The Haidas, about 10,000 strong when the first whites appeared on the west coast, were very highly developed in their woodworking even though they had but crude stone tools. Their dugout canoes were so valuable that other tribes paid huge amounts for them. The white man brought good prices for the sea otter, the Haidas were able to buy metal tools, and during the 19th century their totem pole in- dustry really flourished. Like other Indian tribes, they fell prey to the diseases the white man brought across the mountains, and today their numbers are about a thousand. To an eastener, the Hudson's Bay Company is a series of trading posts up in the far north, and it was a revelation to see the great departmental stare of "the Bay" in Victoria, There too was the magnificent new post office, and an' effi- cient parking building several storeys high. Our drive took us past the Parliament Buildings and on out to that jewel of nature, Beacon Hill Park, where the fires on the hilltop once guided mariners. Across the straits we could see the towering white- capped Olympic Mountains in the State of Washington, :but at our feet was a wonderland of nature. Here, again, we saw transplanted beauty—trees and plants from all over the world. but the wildlife Was native. Wild ducks thronged' the pools and little streams, and we man- aged to get a lovely coloured slide of "John Silver" a one- legged sea gull that got around very nicely picking up what tidbits the visitors left behind, Not far away, within a few yards of the ocean, a sign erect- ed by the Automobile Club told us we were at "Mile Zero"— the Pacific Terminus of the Trans-Canada Highway, and that we were over 4,000 Miles from the Atlantic Terminus, St. John's Newfoundland. Of course, in keephig with the traditions of Victoria, the sign "grew" out of a bed of 'crimson flowers on the lawn by •the Pacific. We signed the register of visitors at British Columbia's new and imposing GoVertunent House, built of native stone amongst towering rocks and beautiful lawns and flowers. We read on the plaque on the north side of the entrance that the Lieutenant Governor, the Hon, Prank Maeltenzie RoaSe—thoSe names alone conjure 4 lesson in history—officially opened the official residence in 1959, re., placing that destroyed two years previously by fire- — Mid just in time foe the royal visit. The present incumbent is the Hon, George ?earkes, VC, the fornier Minister of National Defence in the biefenbaker Govetatrierit, Our drives showed us how Victoria is spreading over the rugged rural areas. Saanich Township, we learned, had a greater population than Victor- ia proper, but we wondered how so many people could be packed into such an area, and with so much green space and rugged scenery tucked in and about the whole. Our host, the Venerable John Forth, Brigadier, retired, lives at Cordova Bay, in Saanich Township, where they enjoy city facilities right on the ocean. It is just a few steps from the lawn down' past the jungle of blackberry bushes to the beach, littered by the big- gest logs we had ever seen. What a wonderful supply of wood for the fireplace, we sug- gested, and were told' the salt impregnated Douglas firs would quickly ruin chimney and flues. Out across the straits, before the 'backdrop of distant moun- tains, we saw the salmon fleet making its way out to sea, and we prize a transparency shot with the Forth's living-room window framing the scene. In contrast to those tiny white specks we saw ocean vessels from across the Pacific bring- ing their cargoes for the thriv- ing port of Vancouver. Walking out over the gravel to the sand of the beach, we watched the tide ebbing, and decided we must have a pic- ture of our 'group in the Pacific waters, to complete our trek from •the Atlantic at Halifax in August. • We bared our feet, set the camera on a log at de- layed action, and splashed our friends with the cold' water as we joined the foursome. Oh, brother, the water was cold! On Sunday we went with our hosts to All Saints Church, a modern glass and wood build- ing perched high on "a rock that cannot move" and looking out to sea. How fortunate, we thought, were these western -'folk—most of them transplant- ed—ewe met one lady who long- ed for her home in Ottawa— enjoying such• rugged, beauti- Farm cash income from the sale of farm products M .Carta- da in the first half of 1961 is estimated' at an all-time high of $1,329.4 million, about four percent higher than in 1960's first halt 0011 HAPPY.
