Support the Army of Mercy !
When the Ship of Life is Stormbound,
the Army of Mercy
'brings the down of Hope
HILE brave Canadians are facing shipwreck
and violent death in the cause of democracy,
others ; ; ; men, women, even little children . ;
are struggling in the grim clutch of circumstance
on the Home Front.
To them The Salvation Army stretches out its
hand of mercy and Christian brotherhood, Feet
are turned from pathways of error; wise and
experienced workers give help and counsel; eyes
are lifted to the dawn of a new and better world.
Money is needed for this human reclamation
work. This hand of mercy is YOUR. hand. Do
not permit it to falter or fail.
Hello Homemakers! The order of
the Dominion Power Controller restri-
cting the use of electricity indicates
the acute power situation. However,
the saving that is hoped to be accomp-
-hished through this regulation is only
a small portion of the total required to
meet the growing demands of war in-
dustries. Thousands of munition man-
ufacturers—from the little village
machine shops to the huge industrial
plants—must push forward in the great
crusade for Victory.
By taking on the duty of "Electri-
cal Power Warden' in the Home" each
homemaker can do her share. Here
are suggestions that will help you save
electricity as well as keep your elect-
rical equipment in service for the dur-
ation;
LIGHTS
Turn out the lights when you leave
a room.
Use lights only when and where
necessary,
Place trilite or table lamps to enable
several persons to read or sew and the
children ,,to play games on the floor,
Try to- accomplish your job in the
attic, cellar or clothes cloSet quickly
arid then shut off the lights.
Watch yoiir porch, garage and hall
light's, too.
Keep lamps, reflectors and shades
clean so that no light wilt be wasted.
Do not use decorative or coloured
lamps as they absorb light.
RADIO
Turn off the radio unless you are
listening to it.
This will save electricity as well as
wear on your tubes.

A young graduate of the North Bay

'uliar, Then Mrs. James Blyth, with

feminine hair, and suspicions were
confirmed,'

Sze arrived and asked to see the teach-
eer, to the surprise of all, the once Miss

:Which for one week he had put over
'successfully, having even attended
church on Sunday. His- feminine
rviearelrobe was comPlete. Just why he
:attempted his peculiar stunt is some-

ELECTRIC IRON
Small -articles of fine fabr;es can be
pressed while your iron is heating.

Clothes that only need the damp-
ness taken out can be pressed after the
iron is turned "Off".

of frost-to accumulate.
Do not place refrigerator near the
range—leave space around each side
and at the top.

packages, bottles and cans that may
be stored on pantry shelves.
Do 'not place warm foods in refrig-
erator; wait until cool.

possible, then turn to "Low".
Whenever possible use your well-
cooker or steamer.

fryer or skillet, Such meals mean a
saving in electricitysince they require
only a fruit cup to complete' the meal.
For example: Vegetable, Medley,
Flank Steak Creole,- Vegetable Nood-
les, etc.
Use a double boiler to heal left-over,
products if possible. The lower part

for next day as devilled eggs; cold
tongue etc.
Conserve power when using the
oven by baking or roasting as many
dishes as possible whenever it is on.
Do not leave oven elements on till
the last minute. Make use of 'stored
heat to finish the cooking,
Eliminate reheating the meal—try
to serve the family at one sitting
whenever possible.
