Hello Homemakers! Grapes—On-
tario's last perishable fruit of the sea-
son is ripening, and the time is now
ripe to fill spare jars with grapes—
with grape juice to be served hot or
cold as a sauce to top desserts, or in
gelatine for fruit salads, This delicious
fruit is quite inexpensive and the per-
iod for cooking or canning is unusually
short. Fortunately, too, grapes are
easy to "do down".
CANNED GRAPES: For years
mother has used the following simple
method: Wash grapes (preferably
Concords) and pull from stems.• Put
one cup in a quart sealer. Add 11/4
cups sugar. Fill the sealer to over-
flowing with boiling water . it must
be boiling. Seal and store.
GRAPE JUICE WITHOUT SUG-
AR: After picking grapes, leave for
two or three days to mellow. Pick
over and wash. Add 14 cup water for
each cup fruit. Simmer until tender—
DO NOT BOIL. Press through
cheesecloth. Clarify by straining a-
gain through another cloth. Reheat
juice to simmering point only, stirring
constantly. Pour into sterilized bot-
tles. Cap and immerse in hot Water
bath for 15 minutes.

our concession as it has been happen-
ing for a great many years. Patricia
Ann had breakfast with us and picked
up her books and started away off to
school. On an impulse, and because
we had had a skiff of rain that morn-

planted with such care by last year's
teacher, were growing up wild and the
tulips made from cut out papers on the
windows looked a little startling on a

looked a little timid and was particu-

left, with sympathy welling up inside
me for her. If she wears dowdy
clothes she'll be criticized. If she
wears fashionable ones, people will talk
about her wasting all her money on
clothes. If she. goes out with the son
of the chairman of the school board,
people will say she's currying favor.
If she goes out with the good-looking
