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.

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. Exeter Senior Citizens held their monthly harmony night Tuesday in the legion hall. Ed Chambers was master of ceremonies.

Following the business meeting chaired by Mrs. Irene Haugh the group attended the open house activities at Centralia College of Agricultural Technology. 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 The World Day of Prayer set for Friday is a day set apart for prayer by the women of the world. On this day they join in a special service, remembering before God the needs of all people. Last year the service was held in more than 3,000 communities across Canada and in over 140 countries. 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."
