China is an old nation going back 2000 years and is often considered a very backward nation. For many years this has been called "the long sleep." Ray Wylie, a teacher in Shanghai from 1965-1967 who helped to prepare the study of China, tells of the many changes. Now China is working to catch up for the old days. Since Communism came to China, private ownership has been taken away and everyone is an employee to the Party. The Party Cadre or boss is the poorest paid person in the world, but the important position means more than a high salary. A. Carter, Trivitt Memorial Anglican Church; and Mrs. H.

HENSALL The World Day of Prayer was Observed in the United Church — Please turn to Page 13 BY SHIRLEY J. KELLER Easter is such a pretty time of year. In anticipation of warm balmy spring days ahead, Easter is a time for delicate pinks and greens and yellows and blues. And these colors pop up ry evewhere, from atop milady's head to the family dinner table. Those of you who have been out, shopping for Easter outfits will know just how popular pastel shades are this spring. While navy and white is traditionally smart for any season, it seems to have taken a definite back seat this spring to the softer hues including mauve, Mauve and yellow have always been considered Easter colors, but it has been a long time since I have seen as much mauve used in everything from suits to slacks and even shoes and handbags. You notice it teamed with purple suede or black patent for a dramatic effect; or accented with purest white for that crisp look; or, if you care to be more daring, touched with pink or navy or even green. Anyway you want to wear it, mauve is an "in" color. Nicest thing about it, most girls find mauve a flattering shade. Comfort is a key word in ladies' fashions. Skirts are still short but most have a gentle flare which facilitates greater ease in sitting gracefully. .A-lines seem to be good again as women have discovered the comfort and beauty of dresses that just skim the figure and end in a hint of fullness at the hemline. Sleeves and collars are often the main adornment in women's dresses with frills and lace being shown frequently. Shoes are built for comfort too, but have managed to keep their feminine appearance through the use of color and trimmings. Blunt or square toed footwear is most fashionable. I would urge you to make a tour of Exeter and district stores before travelling all the way to a city to do your Easter shopping. Many ladies' wear stores have a fine selection of spring clothes to show you now, with more garments being unpacked every day. You might even be surprised by the selection that awaits you right at home. Speaking of Easter and pastels, I have a couple of cute cake tricks to tell you about. Either one would make a novel and tasty centrepiece for an Easter table. Both cakes start with a white cake base. The recipes I have suggest using one 19-ounce white cake mix but if you prefer to make your own cake from the ingredients in your cupboard, go right ahead. No matter what the commercials say, "cakes from scratch" are still the best. The pans you use for baking make the biggest difference. For an Easter Egg Cake, you will require two greased oval one-quart aluminum moulds. Prepare one recipe of Seven Minute Frosting and tint it a pale yellow. There are two ways you can assemble this cake to take on the appearance of an egg. Put the bottoms of your two cakes together with frosting and either trim off one end and stand the cake upright as you would an egg in an egg cup or lay the cake down on its side, trimming away just enough cake to allow it to sit well. Frost the entire cake with the pale yellow frosting and decorate it with candied or artificial flowers, baby chicks and ribbons. Surround the cake with paper straw to resemble a nest and watch the kiddies' eyes light up when you bring your masterpiece to the table. For a Bunny Rabbit Cake line a 15 x 10 x 3/1 inch jelly roll pan with waxed paper. For best results, brush the prepared pan with corn oil and use corn oil in the cake itself. (If you are using a cake mix, substitute 1/3 a cup of corn oil for 1/3 a cup of water.) When cake is baked and cooled, cut from it one seven-inch circle for the bunny's body; one four-inch circle for his head; two 11/2 inch circles for his feet; one 3/4 inch circle for his nose; and five-inch long ear shapes. Prepare one recipe of seven minute frosting and tint a three-quarter cup of the frosting a delicate pink. Frost each piece of cake separately and coat with matching shredded coconut. The body, the feet and the head should be white with white coconut. The ears and nose should be pink. (To tint the coconut, place the coconut in a screw top jar with a little food coloring and shake well until colored.) Assemble the bunny. Use two almonds tinted pink for eyes; two slivers of almond for teeth; three toothpicks on each side for whiskers; two shaped pieces of paper secured with toothpicks for a collar; and a velvet or satin bow tie as as a finishing touch. Had a telephone call Monday morning from a lady who noted that some discussion on the basic rules of etiquette might be of value to younger Tea 'n Topic readers. (I really wasn't aware there was any kind of a teenage following, but according to my caller the column is read and discussed frequently by this age-group.) I agree that many teenagers (and some adults too, unfortunately) are lacking in the knowledge of how to behave in polite society. It could be because they just don't know what is expected of them in a given situation, or in some cases, it could be shyness which prevents them from taking the most mannerly approach. Like anything else, good manners are developed through day-to-day practice. Just as "please" and "thank-you" will roll off the tongue automatically by the age of ten or so if mother and father have been persistent about teaching their use, so other acts of politeness can become routine if used regularly. My caller suggested I deal with one point of etiquette per column and has even offered a book to be used as reference material in the ensuing weeks. I think it sounds like an idea with merit and I will undertake the project very soon. In the meantime make a few mental notes concerning the people you are in contact with every day. Do the most mannerly of the group also seem the most poised? Maybe poise and charm are very little else but polished politeness. What do you think? Those of you who remember a special feature during the summer concerning Maureen Huber and her homemade bread will also remember the Huber's interest in natural foods. At that time we had a few requests from interested persons for more information about Huber bread which contains nothing but flour, sugar, yeast, salt, eggs and lard. It seemed that people were attracted by this "all pure food" claim. In Zurich Friday evening — Please turn to page 9 They talk about the luck of the Irish, but Dashwood's oldest .000 ,67 acf0v The Good Book says the average life expectancy of a human being is three score and ten , . or 70 years. However we know that many people live to be much older than that. In fact with modern medicine and medical know-how people are living longer fuller lives than ever before. We think that anyone who observes an 80th birthday deserves special recognition and that's why we have inaugurated a special "over 80 club." If you know of anyone in the area who is observing an 80th birthday or better, let us know about it. We will set aside a small spot each week somewhere on the women's pages where these birthdays will be acknowledged free of charge. Information such as name, age and birthdate are necessary. You may wish to include some additional notice such as special celebrations etc. but this is entirely optional and we reserve the right to delete everything other than vital statistics. At the time of special observances such as a 90th or 100th birthday, a picture may be considered newsworthy. In any case, keep us informed about the birthdays of our "over 80 club" citizens. The Times-Advocate will gladly provide this service whereby friends and relatives can be reminded of these easily forgotten dates. citizen, Mrs. Adella "Sammie" Fisher believes you don't really have to be Irish to be lucky. You just have to be born of St. Patrick's Day, It was 96 years ago on St. Patrick's Day that Mrs. Fisher was born to German parents, Since that time she has enjoyed Irish good fortune in a happy, healthy life. Her greatest delight is to spin stories about the events she remembers best in her lifetime. And Mrs. Fisher's memory is keen. She takes pride in the fact she can match wits with her daughter, Mrs. Edna Weber, Dashwood, with whom she has made her home for many years. For the past 17 years, Mrs. Fisher has been blind but this is about the only handicap she suffers. She claims that if her eyes were good, she could walk to Exeter from Dashwood. Her daughter agreed this is probably so. She could recall how Mrs. Fisher often walked between Dashwood and Zurich (T-A photo) MRS. `BAMMIE' FISHER . . . luck of Irish when she was over 60 years of ! age "My legs are 25 years old," laughed Mrs. Fisher, "but my body is 96."
