Agrees with judges Four-year-old Sam Toornstra is in complete agreement with Exeter Fall Fair judges that his mother, Mrs. Peter Toornstra, Hensall, is South Huron's top cook. He doesn't say so in words, but gives ample evidence in his actions as he digs into a chocolate cake she baked for the family. The new T-A cooking champ entered all 21 classes at the fair and won a prize in each. T-A photo MISC.

BATHROOM TISSUE Rebekahs start with 'pot luck' Pride of Huron Rebekah Lodge commenced the fall season with a pot luck supper at 7 p.m. last Wednesday evening. The evening was spent in making plans for presenting 27 of the members with 20-year jewels at the next meeting, Oc- tober 4. District Deputy presi- dent Miss Jean Scott, Seaforth, will present the jewels assisted by the first Noble Grand Mrs. William Cann. This is the first time jewels have been presented in the lodge. MacINTOSH and share some of her prize mon- ey with the church. "This was my lucky time" she said. As can be expected, it takes "quite a bit of time" to pre- pare 21 entries for the fair and Mrs. Toornstra spent most of last Monday and Tuesday work- ing in her kitchen. She baked her bread the week before and put it in her freezer. Monday she baked eight cakes. For cookies, biscuits and muf- fins, Mrs. Toornstra baked double amounts so she could test her cooking before putting it on exhibit. Cooking for the fair is also more expensive for Mrs. Toorn- stra than normal. She used but- ter for her exhibits, while she normally uses margarine in her household chores. However, h e r efforts were financially rewarded. She sold 10 of the 21 entries to eager buyers who had spent part of the after- noon smacking their lips over the delicacies. She took the rest home for her family, but it, too, quickly ran out and she was back to her normal routine of having to bake twice a week to meet the demands of her family. The Champion Cook has a daughter, 13, two hearty boys, eight and four, who keep her busy. The Toornstra family have been living in Hensall for the past four years living previously at Woodham. Although she's the area's new- est cooking champion, house- wives will be happy to learn that Mrs. Peter Toornstra doesn't have unqualified success every time she tackles a recipe. There's a considerable bit of trial and error in baking, es- pecially with new recipes, the Hensall lady admits, and it some- times takes her two or three at- tempts before she's satisfied with the results. In some cooking, she tries to combine the best quali- ties of two or more recipes. However, judges at the Exeter Fall Fair didn't find too much wrong with Mrs. Toornstra's cooking. They gave her seven firsts, nine seconds and five third prizes and declared her the T-A champion cook. She en- tered all 21 classes in the cook- ing contest and won a prize for each. Oddly enough, it was the first time she'd ever tried four or five of the items listed in the competition. She came from Hol- land as a teenager in 1952 and girls did not learn to cook in her homeland as they do in Canada. Mrs. Toornstra has been one of the top cooks at the fair for the past five years, but never placed too high because many of her entries were listed under the Bethel Reformed Church. However, last year she added up her points and those she won for the church and realized she could have placed first. So this year, she decided to enter all the exhibits under her own name APPLES 3 LBS. 290 FRESH, CRISP CELERY STALKS STALK 250 #70400 70fteed AYLMER 11 OZ. TOMATO CATSUP ALLENS VITAMINIZED 48 OZ.
