Sid Daley of Lucan detachment shows his prowess as a cook this week. His experience in the culinary arts goes back to the hungry '30's when the only job he could get was as cook at a YMCA in Northern Ontario. Sid has come a long way since extra activities for the high periods and hold off the extras during the low times. An encouraging bit about this report is that our high, happiness periods are usually more long- drawn-out than the low periods, The latter seldom run for more than a week, usually occur with a definite regularity, and are, therefore, easier to predict. He points out we must not, `magnify' minor problems that occur at the bottom of our cycle. Remember, he says, when you are feeling at your lowest, your energy is already starting to build up for better days. Well, that's heartening. then but his interest in cookery remains keen. Both of his recipes are highly recommended. Boston Jagasee After soaking 2 cups of lima beans overnight simmer them about one hour, Fry two large sliced onions in bacon fat and place in casserole. Add cooked limas, 1/2 pound salt pork cut into small cubes; 1 large can of tomatoes; 1 tablespoon sugar; 1 small green pepper diced fine; 2(3 cup diced celery„ leaves and stalk; 1 cup uncooked minute rice; 1 teaspoon salt, 1 ,1 teaspoon pepper and 1/4 teaspoon sage.

Our editor is one of those people who does everything well and who is always right. Even though, you may be positive of your.position and argue with him all day to prove your point, he will somehow convince you you're dead wrong. In the newspaper business we've learned to accept his judgement as supreme. But when he moves out into a completely new area of ar- chitecture and design and conquers that field, well, that's not fair, and frankly, it's enough to make the rest of us poor mortals give up papering the back hall. Of course, I speak of the Bat- ten's recent win in the Chatelaine magazine '72 Renovation competition. It's wonderful and a great honor to bring such prestige to our community. And I really don't object to giving credit where credit is due'. but don't you think it's a bit much for him to make us bow down and touch • the ground with our foreheads every time he passes? From his 'lofty' position, he views us untalented ones with a mixture of pity and com- placency. I suppose I could put this all down to sour grapes on my part, In fact, I think I will. Never having won anything more than a Christmas cake raffle, it's a pretty humbling experience to have someone in the next office who wins at everything. (Although I like to think it took a "little" talent to punch the right hole for, the cake!) But even though I'm jealous I'm proud. It always seemed to me that the winners of these contests went to persons living on the magnificent slopes of the Rockies, in the classy suburbs of Montreal, in the clorful Gatineau Hills or some other exotic place. But not this year. No sir, Mr, Batten and Co. copped the 'top' honors and brought the glory to Exeter. We've always known the people here; were just as smart, just as versatile and just as creative as the rest of the world. Now, the whore of Canada shares this knowledge. Thanks a lot, Kaaren and Bill, for putting us on the map. + + The TV singer, snapping his fingers as he groaned out his song, almost sent me over the wall the other night; although I admit the snapping sounded better than the noise coming from his mouth. I read once that everyone can snap his fingers . . . except a chimpanzee, his thumbs are too short, but it seemed to me that that finger snapping singer was making a monkey out of himself. Better he should wrap his hand around a tree limb and let the chimps do the singing. + + + Saw in the paper that many farmers pipe music into their henhouses because it makes the chickens lay more eggs. It must be a matter of pride . the hens can't bear to be outdone by country singers at laying eggs, Apparently farmers have to be very careful to not ruffle the hens by abrupt changes of tempo. A sudden splurge of hard rock could lead to scrambled eggs, or if a fox trot was slipped on by mistake the biddies could be thrown into a frenzy. Our ups and downs An article written by a man of science, explains that we have a perfectly good reason for our 'Ups and Downs'. Seems we have an 'emotional cycle' that can be clocked as dependably as the tides. It's these human 'tides', ac- cording to Dr. Rexford Hersey, that are responsible for the Boss being genial and overlooking small mistakes one day; and the next week biting everybody's head off. Every mother knows some days her youngster is af- fectionate and obedient and on others is "possessed". Some mornings your husband will sing in his shower; on other's he's as glum as a tomb. Cycles of some persons go about 33 days while others may last as long as five weeks. According to Dr. Hersey, when we are at the top period, our energy and well being is at its peak, Often we take on more work and make promises to do even more. Unfortunately, by the time the date rolls around for us to produce for these extra ac- tivities, we are entering our low period when our energy is ebbing. This extra work makes us feel even more depressed and down- beaten. The idea is to make your cycle work for you, according to the doctor. Mark on your calendar your high days and also mark the periods of depression and low energy times. Once you get it all graphed out you can plan for Everyone has the same amount of time — 24 hours a day — but it is up to the individual to decide just how to use those .24 hours to the best advantage. Today, the hours needed for care of the house are decreasing rapidly, and we want moreleisure time for activities outside the home. here are some suggestions for speeding the housework along: Take work breaks to combat fatigue, relieve boredom. Space heavy tasks out over the week. Don't do all your housecleaning in one day if you are exhausted at the end. Watch the market place for work-savers. Permanent press fabrics and contoured sheets are only two examples of • products which can save the housewife time and energy. Sit down to as many tasks as possible. Dovetail jobs. As you wait for dinner to cook, prepare school lunches for the next day, or as you dry the dinner dishes put themst back on the table for break- i Use paper products for as many cleaning jobs as possible to cauvpob idoarardg.clutter in your cleaning Install a paper cup dispenser beside your sink. It's hygienic, and saves washing glasses. Use aluminum foil reflectors under your electric burners to save messy cleaning jobs. Arrange adequate storage. It helps keep a house orderly and easy to clean. Work to music. It creates rhythm in your movements and helps keep spirits high, Adequate lighting in all work areas prevents eyestrain and resulting fatigue. Plan your kitchen so it is easy to work in. Some minor alterations may be in order, Let children help with simple household tasks. It not only teaches them the meaning of responsibility, it lightens your work load. Plan menus to reduce the number of shopping trips per week, saving valuable time and money. Wear low-heeled comfortable shoes and loose clothing for housework. Keep trips upstairs to a minimum by piling articles on the bottom steps and taking an armful up when you go. Store the things you use most often within easy reach, of the work center where they are needed. A spotless house is worthless if your husband and children find you too cranky to live with. 'Pry pouring boiling water over your dishes in a rack and letting them air dry. Use dishes in which food can be cooked, served and stored, to reduce dishwashing. If your family is small, wash your dishes once a day, after the evening meal. You will save on hot water and detergent, as well as time and energy. Duplicate cleaning supplies, such as a can of sink cleaner at the kitchen sink and another at the bathroom sink. This can save you many steps. Install a pegboard and hooks near your range to hang pots, spoons, whisks, and oven mitts, Install hooks, racks or shelves inside closet doors to increase storage space, Wear an apron with large pockets to clean house. It's a handy way to carry dusters and you can gather up small out-of- place articles as you go, depositing them in their proper spot when you arrive there. Or carry a portable cleaning basket which contains dusters, furniture polish, rubber gloves, sponges, sink cleaner, and mirror and window cleaner, Be sure you run your home — don't let it run you!
