But we remember when others forget.
Sadly missed by Mother, Father and
sister.

Introducing Frank Morriss
Pressure of other duti4 has made
it impossible for Helen Marsh to con-
tinue her weekly column, "Gleanings
From Ottawa."
The column's new editor is Frank
Morriss.
Veteran newspaperman, Frank Mor-
riss recently joined the staff of W. I.
B's news section after an association
of seventeen years with the Winnipeg
Free Press during which time he serv-
ed in all departments of the paper.
War-Born Changes
There's one thing about war, it does
bring sweeping changes in our econ-
omic lives. New demands for increas-
ed production come thick and fast, and
we're expected to put our shoulders to
the wheel and Carry on with fewer
people to help us, In other words, we
have to produce more with less.
But back of us we have the scientists
and experts in various fields, They
are constantly on the job, finding out
easier ways of doing things and dev-
eloping new processes. Take dehy-
dration for instance, It was pretty
much of a side-issue before 1989.
know my own conception of dried food
Was all tied up with restaurant apple
pie that had been made with leathery
bits of apple soaked in water, sweet-
ened and then placed in a pie, To-
day's dehydrated apples can't be told
front the fresh. Well hardly. That
goes for other fruits and vegetables
too,
VOtt Uy It In tricks
Research workers at Pennsylvania
State College come out with the in-
teresting statement that perhaps in
the future we'll be able to buy con-
centrated frozen milks in bricks simi-
lar to the ice cream bricks we buy at
the present time.
The experts at the Pennsylvania
College say that the frozen concentra-
ted milk, ;when thawed and properly
diluted with water, can hardly be dis-
tinguished from fresh milk.
I don't know how they make the
frozen brick of concentrated milk in
the first place. But provided you
could get one, heres' what you'd do.
You'd merely place the brick into hot
water, and presto there's your milk,
If you used an equal amount of
water, the result would be a product
resembling coffee cream. If you want
milk, just double the amount of water.
Sounds simple doesn't it?
The United States Armed Forces
are interested in the frozen concentrat-
ed milk. They view it as a possible
source of fluid milk on hospital ships.
What will they think of next!

Publis-Spirited Women
The Federated Women's Institutes
of Canada have been doing a fine work
these past few years, These loyal, pub-
lie-spirited, women have been behind
so many community enterprises, and
since the war they have redoubled
their efforts,
I. was interested in reading the re-
port of Mrs, E, E, Morton of Vegre,
ville, Alberta, as given at the recent
14th, biennial meeting of the Institutes
Mrs, Morton is convenor of war ser-
vices. She tells of the Women's. In-
stitutes co-operating with the Can-
adian Red Cross, assisting at blood
donor clinics and in many different
ways,
And the various members in the dif-
ferent provinces have all done their
bit to help the people of Britain, The
Prince Edward Island Institutes made
hundreds of tins of apple jelly. In
Quebec and Ontario they made large
donations of maple sugar, Alberta
donated money for fruit-growing pro-
vinces to convert into jam. And there
were other ways of helping, too num-
erous to mention, Ontario Institutes
donated $6,262 to the Department of
Munitions and Supplies for two mobile
kitchens while P. E, I. Institutes spec-
ialized in making clothing for four-
year-old British children.
