Young Exeter housewife wins four firsts!
A young Anne St. housewife,
Mrs. Bev Skinner, won four
out of five first prizes in the
first recipe contest held by The
Exeter Times-Advocate.

ites of my family. I just sat
down one evening when my hus-
band was away and decided to
send in a few of our favorites,
never dreaming of getting a
prize", Mrs. Skinner said.
Her sweep of the top prizes
Darlene Passmore, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Almer Pass-
more, Thames Road, is the
youngest cook to contribute re-
cipes to the T-A cookbook.
She writes; "I am nine years
old and I like to bake, too. These
are some recipes that I have
first tried all by myself. They
are easy and I got them from a
cookbook for children. My
mother thinks they are good,
too."
