KELLER There was a pleasing turnout at last week's open house at Centralia College of Agricultural Technology. As usual at the College, things ran smoothly and in apple-pie order, Maybe I should say in beef straganoff order, because it was the beef straganoff demonstration which held the greatest interest for me. The good smells coming from the direction of the kitchens at the college hauled me to the edge of the demonstration area where I spoke with one of the young ladies in charge. She told me beef straganoff is traditionally served with fried potatoes but Canadian tastes seem to dictate a more subtle accompaniment like rice or noodles. Because the straganoff by itself is very rich, we might prefer to serve hot crispy rolls and a light salad with it. A relish tray on the side would be ideal. For dessert, a suggestion was something light, for instance, ice cream and cookies or fresh fruit and cheese. I gave you a recipe for turkey straganoff just before Christmas with the suggestion it would make a simple but elegant buffet dish for a party. After comparing the recipes, I find the Centralia College cooks have used round steak and tomato paste as a substitute for the turkey. BEEF STRAGANOFF 2 lb. round steak 6 tablespoons flour 2 teaspoons salt lie teaspoon pepper 1/2 cup butter 3/4 cup chopped onion 3/4 lb. mushrooms (sliced) 11/2 cup boullion or consomme 1 cup sour cream 1/4 cup tomato paste 3 teaspoons Worchestershire sauce 1/2 teaspoon paprika Saute onions in butter. Add mushrooms and when delicately browned, remove from the pan. Cut beef into strips and dredge with seasoned flour. Brown meat in butter. Add onions and mushrooms. Add bouillon. Cover. Simmer until tender. Add tomato paste, sour cream, paprika and Worchestershire sauce. Blend well. Serve with noodles or rice. * * * The fashion showing at the College was tastefully presented. Commentary concerning the clothes on display was ably handled and created a great deal of enjoyment for many spectators. Probably because it was a campus-flavored showing, the accent seemed to be on jumpers, suits and skirts. Frilly blouses were an important part of the wardrobes for daytime as well as evening. One of the sauciest outfits in the show was a very short, very smart dirndle skirt in shocking pink. For daytime with a tailored shirt or for evening with a ruffley top, the dirndle skirt has a place in today's mod society. * * * Housewives throughout Canada have an opportunity right now to show how patriotic they really are. They can plan the menus that will use up about thirteen million pounds of frozen peas -and one million cases of canned peas in the next few weeks. In 1968 all across Canada, there was a bumper crop of peas. It is necessary to clear out the surplus stock on hand so that growers will know how much to plant in 1969. Here are a couple of recipes which come from the Ontario Food Council. Each calls for peas, now selling at very favorable prices in most stores. MEXICAN PEAS 1 package frozen peas 1/4 cup finely chopped onion 1/4 cup chopped green pepper 2 tablespoons butter 1 cup canned tomatoes salt and pepper to taste Prepare peas according to directions until just crisp tender. Drain. Saute onion and green pepper in butter until tender. Cut tomato in small pieces, add to above, reserving two tablespoons of the tomato juice. Add cooked peas and seasonings to sauteed mixture. Heat only to boiling. Mix a little cornstarch with the two tablespoons of tomato juice and add to hot mixture. Cook, stirring constantly until mixture is thickened. CRUNCHY SALAD 1/4 cup mayonnaise 2 tablespoons sliced sweet pickle 1 tablespoon pickle juice 1 cup cubed cooked chicken or salmon or tuna 1/2 cup sliced celery 1/z cup peas (tanned or frozen) 1 cup crushed potato chips Toss all ingredients together except the potato chips. Add chips, toss lightly and serve at once. Next Friday women from all over the world will get together at World Day of Prayer services in several churches throughout the district. In Exeter, service will be held at James St. United Church. The theme, scriptures and prayers for this year's service were proposed by women in Africa from Sierra Leone, Ghana, Nigeria, South Africa, Congo, Zambia and Kenya. The service was co-ordinated by Miss Cox Van Heemstra, secretary of the department on home and family of the All Africa Church Conference. The African spiritual "Kum Ba Yah" will be heard many times throughout the service, * If your household is like our household you may just have the bottom part of a bushel of apples left in your basement. The fruit may not be just as crisp and mouthwatering as it once was but the apples are still fine for baking and should be cooked soon. Here are a pair of new recipes you might like to try. APPLESAUCE COFFEE CAKE 1/4 cup shortening 2 eggs 2 cups prepared biscuit mix 3/4 cup sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla % cup milk Preheat oven to 360 degrees F. Lightly grease an ;8-inch-square cake pan, Cream shortening and blend in sugar, eggs and flavoring. Add prepared mix alternately with milk. Turn into prepared pan, Bake at 350 degrees F for 35 to 40 minutes. Spread hot cake with 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon and 1 cup sweetened applesauce. Sprinkle this layer with a mixture of 1/4 cup butter, 1/2 cup brown sugar, and 1/2 cup flour. Broil until golden brown — about 3 to 5 minutes. APPLE PANCAKES 11/2 cups all-purpose flour 3 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 3 tablespoons sugar 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg 1/3 teaspoon baking soda dissolved in 1 teaspoon warm water 1 egg 3 tablespoons melted butter 'A teaspoon vanilla 1 cup milk 1 cup grated raw apple Mix and sift dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, beat egg thoroughly and add milk. Make a well in center of dry ingredients. Slowly add egg and milk mixture. Add melted butter, flavoring, and apple. Stir in baking soda dissolved in water. Cook the pancakes until they are filled with bubbles, then turn and cook on the other side. Serve piping hot with ham. It isn't very long now until Easter. Best Foods Division of the Canada Starch Company Ltd., Box 129, Montreal, PQ, has a pretty little booklet ready now entitled "Food Ideas for Easter." If you are interested in food decorating hints for your Easter table, this booklet is a must. For women looking for ways to eliminate scrubbing and waxing, the biggest news is in the indoor-outdoor carpet world. Guaranteed against mildew and wear, these carpets are supposed to be ideal for the home with young children. When the floor becomes dirty, husband and wife simply choose a nice sunny afternoon, take the carpet to the back yard and hose it down. * * * Vanity, thy name is woman! Questioned on whether they worry more about losing their teeth in their twenties and thirties or developing lung cancer in middle age, women smokers admitted to researchers at Roswell Park Memorial Institute, New York, that they are more concerned at the prospect of being toothless. The study pointed out that women smokers are twice as likely as non-smokers to develop advanced mouth disease before 40, and to risk the loss of their teeth. Of course, it is not really an either/or proposition. Smokers can lose their teeth soon and develop lung cancer later. I regret an error on last week's women's page which read — Please turn to page 9 Susan Elizabeth Dinney, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Charles Dinney, Exeter, become the bride of Thomas Joseph Paul Saso, son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Saso, Barrie, in a Toronto ceremony Saturday. Candelabra and a large basket of pink and mauve mixed flowers graced the church chancel for the ceremony conducted by Rev. William O'Brien. Given in marriage by her father, the bride wore a white velvet dress which fell in A-line from a stand-up neckline of heavy white lace. Matching lace decorated the long white sleeves. Discuss health at McGillivray There were 24 ladies present at Monday evening's meeting of the Exeter Royal Canadian Legion Ladies Auxiliary. Mrs. Lois Brintnell, president, conducted the business. A letter from Westminster Hospital was read containing thanks for the parcels received. Thanks were also read for birthday gifts to four veterans. The dart tournament banquet will be catered by the group. Twenty dollars was donated toward the prizes for the evening. Membership for 1969 was taken in the South Huron Association for the Mentally Retarded. Sorority ball amid color Mrs. William Brock, president of the Beta Sigma Phi sorority was crowned sorority sweetheart for 1969 at Friday evening's annual sorority ball held in the Exeter Legion Hall. Theme for the dance was Hawaiian. Elaborate paper flowers decorated the hall with attention focused on the stage where a Hawaiian grass hut had been constructed. The inhabitant was a graceful 'model' attired in Hawaiian costume. Persons attending the dance were presented with Hawaiian le is and welcomed by a reception line comprising Mr. and Mrs. Jack Taylor, Mr. and Mrs. Kevin Delbridge, Mr. and Mrs. William Brock and Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Patterson. Mrs. Brock was crowned by last year's sweetheart, Mrs. Peter Raymond assisted by Mayor Jack Delbridge. Her throne was decked with colorful flowers. Following the crowning, the new sweetheart and her husband led the dancers in a Grand March. Parents have one basic motive in employing a sitter — their children's safety. Their absence from home can be neither enjoyable nor productive unless there is complete confidence in the sitter's ability to protect their children's health and happiness in virtually any situation that might arise. Babysitting is a job to be taken seriously, to be learned and practiced and improved on. It is a business arrangement in which the sitter gives the employer definite services and satisfactions in return for a mutually agreeable rate of pay. Sitting is often a teen-ager's first remunerative employment. It affords an opportunity for developing high standards of service and responsibility applicable to future full time employment. It is also preparation for parenthood and other areas of family living. LOVE AND UNDERSTANDING A successful sitter almost always understands and loves children and, in turn, is liked by children. One can learn to understand children by observation and study and through understanding comes love. MATURITY This doesn't mean one has to be a grandparent to be a successful sitter. It does mean living up to the expectations of one's age and the job. Maturity involves qualities of levelheadedness, "horse-sense," dependability and an objective understanding of oneself. It commands the respect and confidence of others and is an aid in maintaining authority and discipline. Maturity is almost a necessity for successful human relations. A BUSINESS-LIKE ATTITUDE The business aspects of a job should be discussed and agreed on at the time of employment. These include time of arrival, length of assignment, expected duties, rate of pay, safe conduct home and privileges regarding snacks, guests, telephone, television, radio, record player, etc. Sitters and parents should be in mutual agreement on these \‘:coN14',c1r points before employment is completed. Neither sitter nor parent should be timid about asking questions and covering all issues in advance. Sitters should make every effort to uphold their end of a bargain, HEALTH Sitters should be in good physical health and mentally and emotionally sound. This is a protection to the sitter as well as to the children. ADAPTABILITY Successful sitters are alert to and respect the diffe,:ences that exist between households. On new jobs, sitters should familiarize themselves with the physical setup of the house, asking necessary questions before the parents leave. SYSTEM Effective sitters seldom are casual about their jobs. For instance, they encourage parents giving written rather than verbal instructions whenever possible. In turn, they don't trust their memories in delivering messages or reporting unusual occurrences. SAFETY Good sitters are safety-conscious and make every effort to protect their charges from accidents. The safety-minded individual is alert to remote as well as obvious dangers and has the capacity for quickly sizing up almost any situation in this respect. JOB PROFICIENCY The least that is expected of a sitter is knowledge and experience in the care of children. Without them, one shouldn't even presume to accept a sitting job. GOOD MANNERS AND ETHICS It's regrettable it even has to be mentioned but occasionally sitters are credited with doing things that are ill-mannered or even dishonest. Sitters should make every effort to respect the privacy of the families by whom they are employed. Going through closets, drawers, cupboards and personal possessions or reading mail or other private papers is in unthinkably poor taste. So are repeating conversations or relating incidents that would put the family in an unfavorable light. In consultation with her own parents, a young sitter should decline further employment with a family that impresses her unfavorably. On the other hand, it is poor business ethics to betray the confidence of a former employer through idle or malicious gossip. IN DEMAND Success in baby sitting is self evident, A good sitter is always in demand. These are usually repeat jobs with the same few satisfied families. (photo by Doerr) MR. AND MRS.
