Miss MacGregor chose a gown of white satin fashioned, with sweetheart neckline, and gathered skirt appliqued with roses. Her embroidered veil was crest­ ed with a gardenia headdress and she wore a corsage of American Beauty roses. Miss Desjardine was gowned in white satin and wore an embroid­ ered veil caught to a headdress of orange blossoms, She wore a corsage of American Beauty roses. Each couple attended the other. A reception was held at the Ho­ tel London, and later the couples left for a motor trip through the middle western states. For travel­ ing Mrs. Weber chose a grey wool suit with black accessories, and Mrs. Mason wore a turquoise dress­ maker suit with black accessories. The frost has touched the pump­ kin and the leaves have turned to red and gold. Those light, cool des­ serts so popular during the sum­ mer months give way to something more hearty to satisfy November appetites. Steamed or naked batter puddings and betties served with hot rich sauces are always favor­ ites and allow for plenty of variety in desserts, especially if the stor­ age shelves are well filled with canned fruits. Speaking of steamed puddings, many homemakers like to make their Christmas puddings early and put them away to mel­ low so that their flavors are well blended. There is also an added advantage in getting some of the extras done early so they are out of the way before the last minute, cream elites ture and return to fire.

The home econo­ mists of the consumer section, Do­ minion department of agriculture say they are pleased to tell all the secrets of a good meringue —one that holds its shape, remains dry, does not shrink or slide on top of the pie filling. The sugar must be thoroughly dissolved in the beaten egg white. The filling should be cool when meringue is spread on so that no steam forms beneath it. The meringue should be anchored by spreading over to the edge of the pastry.

Honourable mention should be made of the gen­ ius of home aids. Ever since we toured the Christmas merchandise mart, we have been excited about the many new time-saving gadgets. Here are some worthwhile gifts for the homemaker: A wonder clothesline: No clothes­ pins and no clothesline prop are needed with this new galvanized wire clothesline. The four strand wire, on pulley arrangement, has a spreader which separates the wires. The clothes can be fitted into grooves as you move the wire outward and the spreader holds them thus until it is pulled in again to a "tripper” starting point. Handly chopping board: A wide board for cutting is important but a hole at one end is handy. As you place the board of chopped food over a salad bowl, the hole acts as a funnel. Improved paper dishcloths: Easy to wring out and use again are parchment cloths. The paper is per-, forated which helps pick up the lit­ tle pieces. Hanger for kitchen tools: A wall rack which can be put on the- wall near the range is helpful and the new ones are very attractive, in position, the rack forms a allowing the tools to hang without marring the wall. It complete with a set of tools ing an egg turner, fork, masher, ladle and spatula. Useful beater: Remember fashioned piano wire whip? Well it’s on the market in an improved style. We beat eggs gradually Fabric aprons; bags for household pur­ poses such as garments, laundry, shoes and dusters are smart. From a yard of cotton material you can , make unusual toys for wee folk.

In the morning the message "Revival .Days in Israel" showed how David ■ desired the presence and glory of God in the tabernacle. Ps. 132. Da­ vid decided to bring the ark back to Jerusalem. God had given expli­ cit directions how the ark should be borne but David adopted a wrong method so the Judgment of God and failure resulted.
