Fraser, Prop. Hello Homemakers! There is a new generation of lunch carriers this month. Many young children begin school and many walk off with their mid-day ‘meal in a box. .Only 17 percent of Ontario’s rural elementary schools provide a portion of the noon meal. If more interest could be taken in the child’s lunch, the child would show more interest in school studies. Where food can be re­ heated it is a simple method .for the rural teacher to help. Today, we know that milk is the most perfect food. Many hot milk dishes may be prepared and taken in glass jars with the name written on an adhesive tape label. Then .the jars can be heated school, school teacher with simple cooking utensils. Here are suggestions for the hot jar: Cream of Vegetable soup, Scalloped Potatoes with Sausage, Stew, Creamed Creamed Eggs, Creamed and Rice, Creamed Fish, Beans, Corn Scallop with _____ Rice Pudding, Stewed Fruit and Pie Filling. With this main dish prepared the day before, it is wise to wrap up fresh food to complete the lunch ... we refer to buttered brown bread or sand­ wiches, carrot or- turnip sticks, raw tomatoes, radishes or celery, cookies or cake. There are a few schools where a hot dish is prepared under the supervision of an older pupil or the teacher. This luncheon sup­ plemented by some food brought from home, provides an adequate meal. For’ example: Baked Pot­ atoes scheduled foi' Monday's hot food may be the cue for mother to prepare meat sandwiches and a jar of pudding. On Tuesday, the dish of baked beans calls for buttered brown bread, , a raw apple, cookies and milk. On Wed­ nesday, scrambled eggs may sug­ gest graham piece of Thursday, goes with of grapes scalloped can be rounded out with butter sandwich, carrot and milk. From these ideas you can tell we are trying to include at least one item from each group of necessary foods: Milk, meat, fish, eggs or . peanut butter, whole wheat bread, muffins or cookies of whole grain, raw oi* cooked vegetable or fruit. Take A Tip 1. Reserve a space in your cupboard for lunch utensils, wax paper and staple ingredients for sandwiches. 2. Provide metal lunch 3. Select container With a “gold1 for milk and puddings. 4.

To be thoroughly successful, recrea­ tion should be spontaneous, re­ freshing and creative, bringing with it a change in the pace of living and needed relaxation of mind and body. Some form of recreation is essential for every Canadian. ot James St. W.M.S. The September meeting of the Afternoon Auxiliary of the WMS met in the Sunday School room on Thursday afternoon with a good attendance. Mrs. Down, the President, was in the chair. The meeting opened with the singing of “The Church’s One Founda­ tion’’ followed by prayer by Mrs. Down. After the business part and roll call, Mrs. J. Hodgert with her group then took charge. The devotional part was taken by Mrs. Hodgert, followed with prayers .by Mesdames Sweitzer, Cook and Prior. Mrs. T. Coates then sang very beautifully, “Win One For Christ”. ,The new study book, “Growing With the Years”, written by Rev. Kenneth Beal on, for the twenty-fifth anniversary of Union of the United Church was introduced by 'Mesdames Appleton, Kyle and Cook, a book so worth while that every mem­ Over The Fabric FenceLadies Shown Home Furnishing Exhibits An exhibition of home furnish­ ings and interior decorating was on display at Mrs. David Stew­ art’s airport apartment for mem­ bers of the Officer’s Wives Auxiliary at theii- first fall meet­ ing, held last Wednesday. Three London firms, the Mary Baker Furniture Company, Mel Hawthorne Interior Decorating and J. P. Finnegan, showed the ladies all types of custom-built and ready-made furniture includ­ ing livingroom, bedroom and kitchen furnishings. Mrs. T. M. Webster, who has four daughters, was given a carpet sweeper by one. of the firms, for .“the lady with the most daughters.” Before viewing the displays, the Auxiliary held the business part of their meeting in the Officer’s Mess with Williams as acting the absence of Mrs. ston. There were members present. It was decided to hold two bake sales sometime during . September, one in Exeter and 1 one in Grand Bend. Mrs. N. Burden announced that the | Singer Sewing machine Company would hold classes on Mondays and Wednesdays, starting within the next two weeks, for dress­ making and home decorating.

After the yarn has been .prop­ erly prepared, warp beam and the shuttle, it actual weaving "weaving” has — By NELLEN O’BRIEN — Structural Weaving thespun onto onto bobbins for is ready for the loom. The term been defined as the process jn which two ur more yarns are interlaced at right angles to form the actual fabric. In large modern plants the yarn is wound on bobbins in such a manner that when the bobbins have been inserted in the .shuttle of the loom and subsequently be­ come empty, they are automatic­ ally discarded and new bobbins inserted with a moment’s pause in the weaving operation. These modern looms are so automatic that a bolt of red and black mackinaw cloth may be .woven without the loss of one minute between color design change or shuttle refill. Turning .now to the different types of weaves, we find only three standard foundation weaves. These are plain, twill aud satin. All other weaves are variations of .one or the combina­ tion of any of these basic'-types. Plain weaving, of course, is the simplest operation for mak­ ing cloth. In this type of -weave the lengthwise threads known as the warp and the crosswise threads called the filling are passed alternately over and under each other. This does not mean to say, however, that all plain woven fabrics look alike. No, quite the contrary. The dif­ ference in appearance is due to the varying factors such as size; of yarn, twist, number and color. Finishing processes on the woven material can also change its ap­ pearance. To illustrate: percale, chints, muslin, chambray, cre­ tonne, sheeting, flat crepe and organdy are all variations of plain weaving, but their .finished products are very different. The twill weave has been found to be one of the strongest cloth structures and for this reason is most frequently used on woollens and worsteds, heavy lining fabrics, materials for work clothes, children’s play fabrics, and other cloths where durability is the prime factor. The twill is formed by combining the warp and filling threads in such a manner that diagonal lilies ap­ pear on the face of the fabric. These threads are usually woven very closely together and made from well-combed highly twisted fibers. Our best examples of sturdy twill weaves are to be found in serge, whip­ cord, foulard, deniin and gabar­ dine, all of which .are known for their excellent wearing qualities, Satin-type weaving may be divided into two classes: warp satin in which the wary threads are thrown to the surface, and tilling satin in which the filling threads appear on the right side 5-year guaranteed Mothproof protection man’s suit, 41 cents cents per year! ROBERTSON’S Exeter BERLOV for wo- . . only 8 DRUGS Ontario of the material. This is done by passing eithei’ the wary or fill­ ing threads over several yarns then under one. The result is a smooth unbroken surface which reflects the light and gives a high luster. These exposed yarns are known technically as ‘floats’. The durability of satin is deter­ mined by the length of these floats, which in the long-float satin tend to snag and 'present a worn appearance. However, in , lining satins where short floats are generally used, long durabil­ ity is the result. A distinct variation of some of these foundation found in the ' either dobby or is accomplished tachment which picks up certain threads and holds the way of the shuttle, drops them again at different intervals to make which appear in figured corset materials, .brocades, damasks and tapestries. One of the most common varieties of plain weaving can be seen in the pile weave, in which a third set of yarns is introduced to form surface loops. Terry cloth towels demonstrate this point. For velvets and corduroys the same pile weave is used but the loops are cut and sheared uff by a finishing machine. The gauze or leno weave is apparent in all mesh curtain materials. This is done by twist­ ing a warp thread between two filling threads to hold them apart. A firmly twisted yarn, however, is essential in this type of weaving to render good ser­ vice. The term double cloth is a type of weave which is applied to heavy overcoating and blanket cloths. This fabric is merely two complete and separate cloths with their own warp and filling threads, but these threads are interlaced at regulated intervals. In some types, however, a fifth set of yarns are introduced to do the joining. Reversible colored blanket cloths are an example ot this process. Any fabric which is similar to pique in which the cord runs lengthwise of the material may also be considered a double cloth. These fabrics also have two sets of warp and filling threads. The back warp inter­ laces or blends with the surface filling only in the sunken lines. Lengthwise wadding or stuffing threads are usually inserted to give the cord effect. Lappet weaving is known as one of the fancies in the fabric trade. It is used on plain or gauze fabrics where lappet ef­ fects are produced by extra warp threads woven in at intervals and left free at others. The loose ends are cut off later by a finishing machine, clipped spot or Dotted manner. Now weaves can be figured weave, jacquard.
