If you are an ex.sentiternant getting' re-established in civilian life you will find your local Bank 11lanager a useful. man to consult. this Advertisement is Spons 'or 'ed by, y flavour than other foods, 4, Use a little psychology when serv- ing a new cooked cereal; never announce that it is full of vitamins and minerals, Wait ,tintil the teen- agers exclaim "Raba-Huba", then than nonchalantly introduce a few health pointers into the conversa- tion, 6, Keep im mind that whole grain cereals are the most 4nexpensive foods to buy, This is, in itself, an important reason for their ex- tensive use, So let's roll up our sleeves and make the whole neighbourhood jealous of the aroma of cooking bread and rolls, WHOLE WHEAT BREAD 3 cups lukewarm milk, 3 tsps, salt, 3 tbsps. sugar, 3 tbsps. fat, 2 yeast cakes, 6 cups whole wheat flour, 2-113 cups white bread flour. Combine salt, sugir, fat and milk, and when lukewarm, add crumbled yeast. Let stand until bubbles appear, Add white flour and beat wiell. Add whole wheat flour, Place in greased bowl, remembering to grease the sur- face of the sponge also, Let rise un- til double in bulk. Knead on floured board and return to bowl, ,which has been washed and greased well. Let rise again until double in bulk. This time knead it in the bawl.* Let rise , until double. Knead again in this bowl, always greasing all surfaces. Let rise again until double and turn onto a floured board and shape into loaves. Place in pans and allow to rise until double in bulk. Place in a hot eaten, 400 degrees, and cook for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 de- grees and bake until done. If a small pan of water is placed in the oven during the cooking period the crust will be much thinner and of better colour. CLOVER LEAF ROLLS Proceed, using the same method as above, but when sponge is ready for pans, break off small pieces about the size of a large walnut, roll lightly in the palm of the hand and place three of these together in each individual muffin tin: Allow to rise and place in oven and cook about 15 minutes. 'CINNAMON ROLLS Make sponge, similar to that used for whole wheat bread but place on floured :board and roil to' about inch thick. Spread with the following mixture; 3 tbsps. fat, % cup brown sugar, 1 tsp. cinnamon, well creamed. Roll the dough Wm a jelly roll and cut into slices about an inch thick. Place in greased Muffin tins-,,and let rise. Bake in hot oven for ten min- utes. Do try to serve immediately. NOTE: At this time of year, one should take particular care to see that all cooking materials are warm, also tat ingredients. No drafts should reach the sponge when it is rising, or, in fact, at any time. A little care makes all the difference in the quality of the finished product.

When we ran into Aunt Mary's kitchen the other evening and found 14 year-old Jamey eagerly waiting beside the oven, we naturally expected to see butter tarts or a luscious pie appear, but, to our amazement, a pan of spicy whole wheat cinnamon rolls issued forth. Since when had the bobby-soxers be- orne interested in the lowly bun. As Jamey retired with each hand clutch- ing a hot bun and a burned tongue protruding from his mouth, Aunt Mary explained that cinnamon rolls, made with whole wheat flour, were just too good for anyone to resist. And the same rules apply to the cooking of any cereal, Make it attrac- tire and the whole family will enjoy it. TAKE A TIP 1. If it is porridge you, are making, be sure it is sufficiently cooked. * Many people have acquired a dis- like for cereal because they have never tasted it when it has been free of starchy flavour. 2. Serve cooked cereal piping hot, smooth, without lumps, and with rich milk or cream topped with brown sugar. This last item often does the trick with children. 3. Most cereals require a much larger quantity of salt to heighten the MORRIS COUNCIL Morris Twp., March 11th., 1446 The Council *net on the above date, in the Township Hall, with all the members present.

By'BETTY Bread Is the "staff of life"; toast a familiar item at breakfast. But ifow often would you order plain bread or toast in a restaurant or hotel, if flaky biscuits or hot muf- fins were on the menu? So how about remembering this preference and turning up more often with hot biscuits and muffins on the home table — for breakfast, brunch or supper? Even if you are a war worker, these delicacies may be prepared in a jiffy — by using a muffin or biscuit mix prepared in advance and stored in the refriger- atdr for ready use. Note the good points in the fol- lowing recipes which highlight the above suggestion. They provide special Sunday morning treats for the family. They're real .finds for the housewife who likes to serve hot breads more often at weekday breakfasts, because they're such time savers that she can fit them into a busy morning schedule. They supply calories needed for the morning's tasks. Moreover, the cereals used in these recipes give you a head start on those import- ant factors, iron, niacin and thia- min — which you need every day.
