Esther Moore, Dorchester (right) both students in the home
economics course at Centralia College of Agricultural Technology
are interviewing Mrs. Bill Green, Huron Park, in connection with a
nutrition survey. During their study, the girls hope to determine some
idea of just how well the average family does eat in a country like
Canada where the standard of living permits almost everyone to
enjoy a nutritious, balanced diet. T-A photo

Two new factories are almost ready to start production. But with hundreds
of rolls of carpet still at the old factory — Kraus offered special prices if we
took delivery immediately. That way they didn't have to move the carpet
to the new factories. We really made tremendous buys and we're passing
these savings on to you. In some cases you save as much as $2 a square

E. F. H all, assessment
commissioner for the county
gave a testimony Friday to his
belief that Huron County folks
should buy at home, He told
county councillors that he has
instructed his wife to buy
everything locally that she needs
and can obtain in Huron
He said she has been instructed
by him to ask even door to door
salesmen their home addresses
and their companies. If they do
not have good solid Huron
connections, the salesmen are
asked to leave "because my
husband insists that I buy at
home,"
Mrs. Hall probably won't be
sorry either. During the weekend
I had occasion to be in London.
(I say occasion because it was an
occasion . . we seldom see
the big lights of the city simply
because we are not the least bit
interested in what the city has to
offer.)
Taking advantage of the
situation, I began the search for
a couple of articles of clothing
for my family. Would you
believe that I couldn't find
anything suitable in two large
London stores and returned
,home to find exactly what I was
looking for in the first little
Exeter shop I visited?
I guess I'm really a small
town girl at heart.
If you would like to brighten
up your home this March
without any expense why not
present a preview of spring by
cutting branches from flowering
trees or shrubs and forcing them
to blossom indoors?
The easiest to force are
Forsythia, flowering crabs and
cherries, pussy willow, and
Japanese quince. For best results
select branches that are well
supplied with flower buds.
Flower buds are usually larger
than vegetative buds.
Always cut the branches with
pruners or a sharp knife so that
the tree injury heals quickly.
Bring branches indoors and
crush the cut ends. This enables
the stems to take up more water.
Gently rinse the stems in
lukewarm water.
Forsythia is the easiest to
force. It can be placed in water
and put in a warm room
immediately. It should bloom in
about ten days. Varieties that
are more difficult to force
should be placed in lukewarm
water in a cool room for a few
days. When the buds have
expanded, bring them into a
warmer room to blossom.
When you arrange these bare
branches, remember the
importance of "line" in flower
arrangement.
I've had some definite
indications that the teenagers in
Exeter and district are interested
in a babysitting course of
instruction.
One mother who telephoned
me to announce that her
daughter is interested thought
the course would be valuable.
I'm inclined to agree and I'm
particularly happy to note that
the group interested in giving the
course has also seen the wisdom
to include some charm and
beauty hints in the bargain.
What a wonderful way to end
our probe into the problems of
babysitters, their parents and
their employers?

I'm now ready to begin a new
line of pursuit. With spring just
around the corner I'm certain
there are plenty of weddings
being planned for April, May
and June.
I invite young brides and
their harrassed mothers to use
this column (anonymously, of
course) as a bridal consultant
service. Naturally I don't
pretend to be an authority on
etiquette or wedding protocol
but I do have some very good
friends who do have some of the
answers.
This month special emphasis
will naturally be on Easter but
next month, I hope to put
together some special articles for
the information of families
planning spring weddings. In the
meantime, send your questions
and suggestions to Tea 'n Topics.

First year students in the
home economics course at the
Centralia College of Agricultural
Technology, Huron Park, have
embarked on a tremendously
interesting project this year,
They are taking a nutrition
survey among the housewives in
Huron Park,
A questionnaire was taken by
the students into the homes they
visited and homemakers asked to
answer questions concerning
their weekly food budget, the

pudding mixes, tea biscuit
mixes, pastry mixes, frosting
mixes, muffin mixes etc. There
was also a section on packing
lunch boxes.
Associate principal Miss
Molly McGhee offered to share
some of the findings of the
survey with Tea 'n Topics
readers.
There are indications the
college will offer a short series of
talks and demonstrations . next
fall on such things as budgeting,
foods and nutrition; care and
selection of fabrics; and new
appliances and projects.
Observes Miss McGhee, "In
addition to gaining nutrition
information, we have added a
final question to the survey
asking whether the residents of
Huron Park would be interested
in attending a series of short
talks and demonstrations, given
mostly by the students
beginning in the late fall of the
year. We feel that the students
need the experience of a live,
non-professional public. We also
know that most housewives
today are very anxious to have
information about new products
and appliances."
It is expected all ladies of the
community will have an
