I’M going to have The Sentinel
. ’’right across a barrel” for an
error in last week’s column
the spelling bf the word Christa*
mas, so spelled in iny copy, but
printed as Xmas in. the ‘ column. It is a subject on which I feet
quitekeenly,otherwise I’d—not?
’ comment on it. I’ve always won?
dpred hpw the Word “Xmas”
came into use /i . it means no
thing, and Christmas means §p
much. The subject of the sermon
we heard in our. church on
Christmas Sunday was about the
movement, which aparently gain
ed great momentum Jhis year__
taking the X, commonly used to
indicate an unknown quantity,
out of the word, and putting the1
Christ back in. I never buy
greeting cards that have the ab
breviated spelling ; . it offends
my sense Of the fitness of things^

\ Tonight the Wind is. howling

Makes me think of, ideas for
keeping warm when it is cold,
and of good, hot, satisfying meals.
"(I- wouldn’t dare mention potato
soup again, would I?).
Did you know that two light
weight blankets are warmer than
one heavy one? Air space be
tween the layers provides an in
sulation. The same holds true In
clothing ..; a long sleeved blouse
L light sweater under your
coat are. warmer than one extra
heavy garment. Wools, which
trap air between their fibres, are
Warmer than leather, Those head

So far as diet
best heat producers are fats.
Even if you are Watching your
weight, don’t entirely eliminate
them. . ' . • • •
A good brisk walk on a cold
or breezy day does you a world
of good ... blows the cobwebs
out of your head, and sends the
blood rollicking through your
veins, .
One thing to remember about
/the season when,we must have
fires is. to provide some means
jofaddingmoisturetotheair-in-
• ’your rooms. Most houses are too
dry. A pan of water on radiators
or stove will help humidify the
air. It is believed, that too, dry
air increases the tendency to have
colds. •
You will never, never, go to
, sleep'if your feet are cold. That’s
a fact. So don’t* be top proud to
take a hot water bottle or heat
ing pad to bed with you. Better
still, slip your feet into a pair
of woollen -bed socks, , Great
sleep-inducer! With all these cold
weather tips,., the thermometer
wilr probably be hovering in the
fifties at least, by the time you

And now, to talk of food again.

V4 cup flour, 6/slices dry 'bread,

and milk. Trim crusts from bread
and. cut diagonally. Dip bread in
to batter. Fry in hot' fat about 3
miri. on each side, or. until a
golden brown.
We were at a party the other
night where we were served a
buffet supper; the ‘piece de re
sistance’ was baked ham, which
was utterly delicious, and looked
so attractive, as -it sat, partly cut.
•It was stuffed, and the dressing
sliced so neatly in the middle
of the lpyely pink slices of ham.
Everyone was wondering what
made the- filling, and we arrived
at the conclusion that it ^was
sausage meat. The catering? was
done by a Ideal restaurant, and
the chef Was givingaway no
trade secrets, so there is nothing
to do but experiment; I supposb.
I have put sausage meat in dress
ing for. fowl, along with bread
crumb dressing, and it is very
flavorsome, Getting meals might
get to ge a borfe sometimes, if
_we__didn’t use our imaginations
and try’out something new..
(ED. NOTE—We are quite de
serving of Rosemary’s reprimand
for /using the word Xmas. We
iarely' use it and never approve
of it/ but on occasion its use
simplifies the composing of a line
of type in which the longer word
cannot be accomodated.) . ' .
THE LUCKNOW SENTINEL, LUCKNOW, ONTARIO
THE VOICE OF TEMPERANCE
Margaret Aitken, writing in the
Toronto Telegram, referred to the
co-called institutional advertising
by. the liquor trade. Their ad boys
write glowingly. of the beauties
of Canada or the comfort of go
ing to church or the ^careers of
great Canadians. Then comes the
.name of thb brewery. They were
going to feature the career of
Sir William Osler. They changed
their minds however and dropped
the great Canadian doctor when
they discovered that in 1906 he
had said, “Throw all the beer and
spirits into the Irish Channel and
the North. Sea for a, year arid
people iri England would bo in
finitely better. Tt would certain
ly solve all the problems with
which the philanthropists, phys
icians and the'politicians .have to
deal”. "
The breweries have rip right to
claim any association with beauty
or the church Or great men. Their
association is with greed and de
gradation. Let their ad boys, El
mer Ferguson and the others
write up the story of death on
the highway-T-the noisy orgy of a
’COcktail^party-^ iheTtragedy" of
broken homes-4then the name oi
the brewery. That would ibe hon
est. All that is the spawn of the
brewery .—Advt.,: \
