Did you notice the feeling too, when you woke up the other morning to find the whole house brighter, to find, in fact, the whole outside a differ­ ent place? Like the vast unex­ plainable difference between rumor and fact. A vital clearing of uncertain! ty. The snow was here, it was really winter. And now we have begun the last month of 1952. Our last bid in another year. Perhaps it is not by chance that we have such an atmosphere as given by clean white snow for this month. Realization A definite realization came to us thOwOther day, perhaps aug­ mented by that crispness under­ foot as we walked back to the office. We’d just heard someone talking about a rumor. It’s unusual, but this rumor wasn't detrimental to anyone hut it was disturbing because it had been passed around surrepti­ tiously as rumors most always are. Depend On Rumors It was annoying, all of a sud­ den, because we realized how much people seem to depend on rumors to determine the char­ acter of others. And what a shame. It’s not pleasant but true that people seem to avoid facts, the very things they should believe and dwell oh things like rumors. What a black place a town the size of Exeter would seem if all the rumors were suddenly print­ ed or broadcast. When we bal­ ance that with facts, the things ,we know are true, we find tin. picture considerably brighter. We don’t mean to Insist that the world is a bouquet of flowers or that no one ever does anything questionable but" it certainly Can’t be denied that respect breeds respectability. * * 4 * Just Used To ’(52 December of another I son, Leslie, who first birthday.

We can’t help but see many failures In 1052, Christmas Seasonings (By Consumer Section Market­ ing Service Canada Department of Agriculture.) Condiments will come in handy when planning those extra special Christmas meals. Incid­ entally, the term ‘‘condiment’’ may be a little confusing. It is the general term which covers three types of seasonings — spices, seeds and herbs. Among the spices are the old kitchen favourites —• pepper, ginger, cloves and cinnamon. The seed condiments probably best known are mustard, celery and anise seeds. When it comes to herbs we find, there is quite an array, each with its own special aroma­ tic flavour, which we should learn to make us of in our cook­ ing. Hints On Herbs I-Iere are some hints on the types of herbs commonly used by famous chefs to add pun­ gency and zest to favorite dishes. The ones they talk about are the ones most frequently found on your grocer’s shelves. Hirst, there is basil. The Greeks' gave it its name which means “king" — king of herbs. Its flavour goes well with al tomato dishes. Bay leaf rather potent herb but sparingly it adds much to ed beef, soups or stews, there is rosemary with its dis­ tinct pine-like flavour which some like to add occasionally to potatoes, cauliflower or turnip as they are cooking. It is also fine to use with roast beef, lamb, pork or veal. iChbrvil is perhaps not as well known as some of the other herbs. It has a flavour some­ thing like a nasturtium leaf and Is good with salads, soups, sauces and eggs. Mint Is usually associated with lamb and green peas, but tty addiiig a little dried mint to cooked beets of onions for a different flavour. Horseradish is frequently used with roast beef or in apple sauce for roast pork. The French "Bouquet garni" is really three herbs in one.
