If you have ever had to live without power for several hours, you are aware of the problems this can present. Ironically, power failures most often occur just follow- ing the end of the working day when energy is in high demand for meal prepara- tion. Preparing food under these conditions is impossi- ble if you haven't planned ,phead. Ideally, for emergency meal planning, you should purchase food ahead of time and save it specifically for this use. Of course, to ensure freshness, you should use the foods and replace them once each year. Canned and packaged dry foods are ideal because they can be stored without refrigeration. When deciding which types of food to store for emergencies, consider that dishes must be simple to prepare using a minimum number of ingredients. Also, choose nutritious, familiar dishes, as new flavors will not usually be accepted in time of emergency. The next consideration to be prepared for an emergen- cy meal is a non -electric heat source to cook over. The best suggestion is cann- ed fuel as is used for fondue pots and chaffing dishes. It can be purchased from„ any hardware or camping supply store. visiting continues in Thames Road By MRS..

Mr. ' Thrower told the children a story about the strength gathered by unity. He ;demonstrated this by having the children break a single toothpick, and then showed the difficulty in breaking numerous tooth- picks placed together. The message was entitled "Have A Good Day." When the forecast for the new year may predict uncertain times, inflation, recession, energy shortage, and unemployment', the Christian still has reason to be happy. God loves us, He has liberated us from the bon- dage of sin and God is with us. Jesus said to His Disciples, "In the world you will have tribulation, but be of good cheer, for I have overcome the world. "It is important to wish others happiness, for it can be summed up in the Song of Praise "Happiness is the Lord."

The saucepan should be placed approximately 5 cm above the canned heat. Before use, be sure to place the heat source on an asbestos pad for safety and to protect the countertop su face. Eileen Neil , food consul- tant with.griculture Canada, hsuggested several tips f r successful emergency cooking. Make one -dish meals whenever possible to save time and fuel. A (198 mL) can of heat will burn from 1112 to 2 hours. It is possible to prepare two or three meals per can of fuel if you are careful. It takes longer to cook over canned heat than an electric range. Allow 10-15 minutes to bring small amounts (750 mL) of water to a boil. Use stainless steel or aluminum saucepans to en- courage fast heating. Keep pots covered to retain the heat. For heating' liquids, the canned heat may be raised(2 to 3 cm) closer to the saucepan. It may also be necessary to raise it when the fuel is running out. "Thin" foods such as soups and chowder are most successfully cooked over canned heat. "Thick" foods must be heated carefully and stirred to prevent scorching. Keep the flame low, at the farthest distance from the saucepan. It is best to only reheat!"thick" foods. Remember safety! Place canned heat on a heat proof metal or asbestos pad. Watch the open flames at all times and keep it out of reach of children. Using Food Advisory Division's emergency recipes, prepare a list of in- gredients to keep on hand. Dry products such as flour, pasta, powdered milk, cocoa, and spices should be packaged in moisture -proof packages and stored in clean, tightly covered metal tins to prevent rodent and in- sect damage. Store emergency foods atVay from heat, light and moisture. It is important to store a supply of clean water in case tap water sources are con- taminated. kdd7' :l(Ij O o'r A UDDLY GIFT — Seven week -olds Derek Rider of Huron Park was hospitalized before Christmas and received a huge teddy bear from the Huron Park fire department.

As a matter of fact, the puzzle probe continued all weekend. The minute one person set down a cube, someone else picked it up. Then the first person would' come back and demand: "Who messed up my cube?" After a few days of work, it was time for New Year's celebrations and more food, more fun - and yea, more cubes. While driving home from my sister's house after an enjoyable Christmas holiday, I thought about the • people who worked over the holiday to make Christmas` safe and happy for others - doctors, nurses and other hospital staff; policemen and firemen; road crews and telephone operators; radio and tv personalities, and many more. To all of them, I'd like to say a big Thank You. And, to all of you, I want to send a wish for health, happiness and peace In the• new year.
