Memories of hilarious Hallowe’en pranks made us wonder what the younger gen- ! eration may think of next. The initiative and energy of the kids who go out witching on the 30th of October may prove expensive • when we try to find a handyman to repair the night’s damage. Before the war many organiza­ tions sponsored “magic” parties; householders bought candies and nuts to shell out to youthful mas­ queraders and mothers held candy­ making parties in the homes. This year amateur vandalism and oodles of candies and nuts, or ingredients to make candies, are “out.” Many have already made plans for Hallowe’en. Organizations have planned war service campaigns. Householders in some localities are purchasing printed Milk for Britain tickets and the costumed teams are to receive these as their loot, turn them into the school or place of meeting where the children may gather for a chaperoned party. After all, what would Hallowe’en be without Grandma’s dress or father’s pants to disguise you. Such { fun as costume parades, bobbing for apples and pin-thp-tail-on-the-donkey until the masquerade is over will conclude another memorable Hal­ lowe’en. ^ECONOMY PUMPKIN PIE One Egg Pastry 2 tbs. shortening, 2 tbs. corn­ starch, % cup brown sugar, 34 tsp. nutmeg, 1 tsp, cinnamon, 34 tsp. ginger, I tsp. salt, 134 cups cooked and strained or canned pumpkin, 1 small can (% cup) evaporated milk, & cup milk, 1 egg.

Me. asks: Recipe for Quick Drop Doughnuts. Answer: QUICK DROP DOUGHNUTS 1% cups once-sifted pastry flour or cups once-sifted bread flour, 1 tsp. baking pow­ der, i tsp. salt, 34 tsp. grated nutmeg, 1 egg, 34 cup corn syrup or liquid honey, 34 cup (lightly packed) brown sugar, 1-3 cup milk, fat for deep fry­ ing. Measure the flour and add baking powder, salt and nutmeg. Using a rotary beater, beat the egg until very thick and light; gradually beat in the syrup or honey, then the brown sugar. Sift in the dry in­ gredients a third at a time, alter­ nating additions of the flour with the milk, and combining after each addition. The mixture should be of drop consistency — if the batter seems thin, sift in a little additional flour, with an extra 1-3 teaspoon .baking powder. Heat shortening to 3 65 degrees (hot enough to broWn a cube of White bread delicately in 55 to 6 0 seconds). Dip a spoon in the hot shortening and use to drop small spoonfuls of the- batter into the frying kettle. Brown on one side, turn and brown second side; lift from the fat and drain—-serve them hot’or cold, if desired, a thin sugary coating may be given to the dough­ nuts by sifting a little icing sugar or fruit sugar, and some ground cinnamon |over the top. Yield: 18 small doughnuts.» * •* Anne Allan invites you to write to her % The Times-Advocate. Send in your Questions on homemaking problems and watch this column for replies. South Section Huron Presbyteraial Convention Held at Centralia The W.M.S. Convention of Huron South Section convened in Cen­ tralia United Church Wednesday, October 20, with Mrs. C. AV, Chris­ tie vice-president, presiding. The theme was “The World for 'Christ." Kippen auxiliary being unable to take the devotional period. Mrs. Herman Powe and Mrs. McFalls ably conducted the same. Mrs. L. I-I. Turner of Crediton, was appointed secretary. Mrs. Mair and Mrs. Johns were appointed to be the resolutions and courtesy committee. As dele­ gate to Conference Branch, Mrs. Mair of Thames Road was elected. Mrs. F. Penwarden, corresponding secretary had the roll call to which the various auxiliaries answered and reports from each were heard. Mrs. Merriam in a few well chos­ en words extended a very warm welcome to delegates and friends. Mrs. D. Lewis, of Brinsley, made a suitable reply on behalf of all present. Mrs. Britton’s report ’'on Chris­ tian Stewardship was very challeng­ ing. She urged that we, in our eagerness to reach our certain al­ locations, do not let ourselves for­ get that Stewardship is an invest­ ment in human lives, and that our ultimate aim is to create Christian living in Canada and the other lands. If we could 'think of our money as what it represents in liv­ es that are healed, educated, nour­ ished, clothed and helped in many other ways, the claims of Christian Stewardship would surely need no further stress. Mrs. Kirkby in her Mission Band report urged that any auxiliary at present not mothering a Mission Band take it upon its heart to do so. AV.M.S. members were asked at all times to lend their support to the bands and to assist in their programs. The Community Friendship Sec­ retary • Miss Ellis, stressed the fact that this part of W.M.S. work was a very important part in winning souls for Christ, We must visit the newcomers; those needing solace; those downtrodden. Miss Sterling, Temperence Sec­ retary was unable to attend but sent a fine report. After a beautiful solo by Mrs. Morgan the morning session was brought to a close by prayer by Mrs. Taylor. Centralia ladies served a sump­ tuous dinner. Main .Street Evening Auxiliary Exeter, conducted the afternoon devotional period the theme “The Lord is the Strength of My Life." Mrs. C. AV. Christie then introduced the guest speaker, Mrs. Lome Eedy of St. Marys, whom she said was the immediate, past president of London Conference Branch, well known to this part since a part of her very early ^girlhood was spent in Exeter, and’ of interest to all because of her zeal in Missionary Enterprise. Mrs. Eedy had come to the convention as speaker, when Miss Carolyn Wellwood, recently re­ turned Missionary from China found herself unable to attend. Mrs. Eedy chose as her subject “Brayer” bas­ ing her Remarks largely front Fos- dicks’ “Meaning of Prayer”. The more we realize the need, the more ready we are to respond. So often we think of prayer as a time of asking or begging from God, when prayer properly understood was really communion, co-operation or a time when we could open the door of o .11‘ 116 SLJ? t S H11 d let the voice of God speak to us, giving God aif* opportunity to reveal to us just what He has need of us to do. The speaker closed her . remarks by reading a very beautifully worded prayer composed by Mrs. Birchell Mrs, Moores gave gleanings from the School of Leaders held each year at Alma College, St. Thomas. A drama “The Challaiige of the Cross” was presented by the James Street Evening Auxiliary, Exeter. The “Old Refrain” as a violin and piano duet was given by Hen- salt Auxiliary and much appreciat­ ed. A quia was conducted which re­ vealed just how different auxiliar­ ies were making their meetings of special interest, An invitation for the 1944 Fall Convention was given by Mrs. Mon­ teith of the Kipben Auxiliary. The Courtesy Committee exten­ ded a hearty vote of thanks to the Boat’d of • Centralia Church, the ladies tor the noon repast and to all who in any way made the con­ vention such a success. Rev, Mr. Merriam, minister of the convention church" brought the convention to a close by prayer fol­ lowed by the benediction.
