There are plenty of eggs on the mai‘ket in spite of commitments to ship large quantities to Britain. In other countries where eggs have been a standard main dish, women have found it necessary to do without them, or use a substitute. Hos­ tesses in 'Capetown, South Africa, have a simple solution. They serve one ostrich egg which provides a good meal for twelve or more people. The people of Capetown have only recently taken to eating ostrich eggs, but they have long been a favorite with African Bush­ men and Hottentots ... If this should become a profitable com­ mercial venture, the ostrich will be transferred from the millinery store to the grocery! Here are recipes made with On­ tario Grade A Medium eggs since Grade A Large are only used Jor poaching at our house. SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH HERBS 4 beaten eggs, % cup cream, Vs tsp. salt, dash of pepper, 1 tbsp, chopped parsley, 1 tbsp, chopped onion, ¥& tsp. -thyme, 2 tbsps. fat. Combine eggs, cream and season­ ings.

Klumpp, London, officiating and interment in iSt. James Cemetery, Clandeboye. Mrs. M'orley, the former Emma Batten, was a life-long resident of Zion and Whalen communities and as long as she was able, took an ac­ tive and competent part in church and community activities. Although confined to a wheel chair for the past eight years, Mrs. Morley did much of her own housework and bore her affliction with great pa­ tience. Visitors were welcomed with a smile and the conversation consisted not of a recital of her troubles but of topics which show­ ed the keen interest she took in others. The many beautiful floral tributes showed the high esteem in which she was held by her rela­ tives and neighbors. The pallbear­ ers were five nephews, Ross Oke, Wilfred Perkins, John Miners, John Batten, and two cousins, George Batten and Billie Miorley. Besides her husband and one son, Leverne, she leaves a granddaughter Marion, five sisters, Mrs. B. Rowcliffe, Clin­ ton; Mrs. W. Archer, Ettrick; Mrs. W. Gunning, Whalen; Mrs. G, Miners, Elimville; ‘Mrs. F, Perkins, Exeter, and two brothers, Wilbert, Winchelsea, and Ralph, Exeter; to mourn her passing.
