The GIVE *' ■ TZx? newest precision tube x-ray machine for treat­ ing cancer costs $100,000. energetic program of cancer research in Ontario with the aim of discovering a specific cure for cancer, or for some means of preventing the disease. Cancer research carried on to date has been entirely inadequate. It is estimated that less than $100,000 is being spent in the whole of Canada On cancer and related subjects. Cancer can be conquered. If science is able to organize sufficient forces against the scourge of cancer, the solution will sooner or later be found. Your contribution is needed—to cut down the death rate from cancer now—to carry on the Search for A method of ridding the world of this dread disease. This appeal is for an objective of $2,000,000 to provide for a three-year program of cancer research, treatment and province-wide service. 1000 Canadians die of cancer every month. Cancer specialists ^are convinced that the majority of these lives could be saved if proper treatment were given in the early stages of the disease. That is the aim of the campaign against cancer now being organized in Ontario—to cut down this costly loss of life now being exacted by cancet. It'.is proposed tp establish cancer clinics at suitable centres" throughout the province where all who suspect they may have can.cer may be .examined, and receive the proper treatment if necessary. »■ Plans are also under way to pay a portion of the cost of treatment of cancer,, as well as travelling expenses, for those needing financial The third objective of the Campaign is an TO CONQUER CANCER ONTARIO CANCER FOUNDATION This organized drive against cancer is a joint effort of The Onfario Cancer Treatment and Research Foundation and The Canadian Cancer Society.

This column is* written in reply to the many re­ quests concerning the preparation and cooking of fish. In spite of the scarcity of canned fish, supplies of •fre£>h or frozen -fish are available. iD'on’t be critical ’ of the frozen fish. Freezing preserves the fresh flavour and enables you to store it in the freezing unit of the elec­ tric refrigerator . until you wish to cook it. When cooking frozen fish, the best results are obtained if 'it is allowed to, thaw sufficiently to cut into steaks. Allow a few minutes longe.r cooking frozen fish—about dight minutes extra baking. Before we discuss ways of pre­ paring fish, may we remind you that_.it is important to know which kinds are fat and which are natur­ ally lean, .especially when the diet is low in fat. The common fish con: taining'oils are: herring, mackerel, salifioil, smelts, whitefish, mullet and haddock. Lehn fish are: bass, bluefish, cod, flounder, halibut, perch, pickerel, pike, lake trout and catfish. Oil fish are best for baking; dry or lean - fish require fat some moisture to prevent the from bursting or sticking. Methods of Cooking, Fish Baking Whole Fish: Split trimmed fish down the backbone so that the ■ fish .will lie flat. Place in. oiled, baking pan skim side .down. Sprinkle with salt. Cover with fine­ ly prepared bread crumbs, sprinkle^ ‘with milk. Bake in an electric oven of 425 degrees for 15 to 30 mins., according to the size of the fish. A 3-pound fish requires 15 to 3'0> mins, and a 6-pound fish 25 to 30 mins. If the fish becomes too brdwn before cooking period is up, reduce the heat. Baked Whole Stuffed Fish: Fish to be stuffed should Weigh • 3 to 5 pounds. Clean, scale and remove the head and tail if desired. Sprin­ kle’ with salt inside and out.. Stuff and sew. Place in. an Oiled’pan and bake in an electric oven at 40'0 degs. 12 mins., then reduce heat and bake 30 to 40 mins., according to the thickness of fish. Allow 10 mins, for each pound up to 4 pounds and 5 mitts., rim each additional pou'hd, Sauteed Or PaivFnciL This is a Ctulck method of,cooking fish., smalt of medium fish" are best ’for this purpose-—large fish shoiild be cut into pieces for serving, Roll in salted flour, cornmeal, of fine crumbs. Us© enough cooking fat. ©A toil to completely Cover the surface of the p&n. Heal oil until hot bill* on thd and skin the of the pan. Heal oil until hot hot smoking hot, brown fish one side, turn and brown on other. Fish is cooked when easily pierced with a fork. Fried Fish (deep fat): This method requires a pan one-third full of oil, therefore only specific .inquiries will be answered. Boiled Fish: Whole fish may be boiled, but it is more satisfactory if cut into servings. Dried or lean­ meat fish are best for boiling. Serv­ ing are put on a’pie plate and placed in a saucepan over which is poured one quart of water containing 3 tbsps. vinegaii, ,2-tsps. salt'. (A quart of boullion, is a good substitute, for vinegar solution). 'Fish is boiled for 5 mins., then simmered for 6 to 10 mins., depending on the thick­ ness. The liquid is used for making sauce—thicken and season with onion, parsely, mushroom, chopped egg, cheese, tomato or spices such as capers. ' • Steamed Fish: iFieces. of dry- meated fish are cooked tender in a steamer, allowing 10 to 15 mins, per pound. Sauce, is the. finishing touch for this dish,'Too. LENTEN SPECIALS ' Feature cottage cheeSeu- as'U an entree accompanied by^'balfedf^oi'a- tobs and browned* parships! ’ ; There are countless eggi dishes; poached, scrambled; curbed, fi^ed, cooked-in-shell, -stuffed*/-! baked*' in gravy, friend -in deep batten,VHotiff- les, omelets, fondues, and'variations of these. ’ ‘ . - Dried beans and peas are protein foods too. Thick soup seasoned with a small amount of onion and celery rounds out a meatless dinner. -Our pioneers were grateful for 'boiled dried vegetables seasoned with a dash of cayenne. Milk and cheese make a simple casserole the mainstay of any meal, If your oveh does no.t keep a con­ stant temperature, make a cream sauce of 'whole milk in preference {to homogenized; this, will prevent a curdled looking scallop. " Vegetables . are in ample supply, It is easy to provide a vegetable plate of three or four varieties, but smothering each mound with but­ ter just can't be done these days. Here’s what to do: drain off the liquid from a call of beets, heat to boiling and stir in two tablespoons df flotfr hiixed td a .paste with wat- !e?/add ^’Ibsps? vinegar and 3 tbsps,- brown sugar to make a, good sauce.
