JAMES HOWARD

James Howard Galpin
of Palmerston Town
Manor Nursing Home
died in that nursing home
on Monday, December 17
at the age oo 87.
He was born in Stanley
Township on November
30, 1892 to Henry and
Varna church concert packs hall
By -Dianne Kirton
' On Sunday afternoon,
Dec. 16, the Varna United
Church Sunday School
Concert was held at the
Stanley Township Hall. A
large :crowd of families
and friends of the
children enjoyed the
program entitled
"Christmas
Everywhere" in honour
of the International Year
of the Child.
Laura Roy presented a
reading to open the
program. A choir of about
30 children sang several
songs under the capable
direction of Mildred
McAsh.
The Nursery Class
depicted "Christmas in
Mexico" with a turn by
each child at hitting a
pinata, a Mexican Hat
Dance and a poem.
"Christmas in ,Ger-
many", where the first
Christmas tree was in-
troduced, was illustrated
by the Kindergarten
Grade 1 .class with a
rhythm band, ° choral
speaking selection and a
dance around the
Christmas tree.
The English traditions
of Christmas were
presented by the Primary
Class with a dance to the
carol "I Saw Three
Ships" and a
dramatization of the Yule
Log tradition.
Members of the Junior
Class demonstrated some
Try this unique idea
Do you need a last
minute gift or stocking
stuffer idea? Food
specialists at the Ontario
Ministry of Agriculture
and Food suggest one
that can be used on
Christmas Day a meat
thermometer.
This ' handy little gift
wily lie' appreciated 'and°
very useful whether the
main course meat is
Ontario turkey, chicken,
pork, beef, lamb or
rabbit. The thermometer
takes the guessing out of
roasting any meat. On
this busy day, think how
easy it would be to insert
a thermometer into the
meat . or poultry (or
stuffing of the turkey) at
the beginning of cooking,
and let it indicate when
the meat is done. -
Certainly, the cook has
a general idea of how long
to roast the meat. For
example, most cookbooks
indicate that a ,12-1b.
whole stuffed turkey,
roasted at 160 degrees C
(325 degrees F), will take
about 43/4 to 51/2 hours.
But, that's a : 3/4 hour,
difference tt-*- 'A4bTth r
thermometer will tel=l you
exactly when it's done
without the guesswork.
A meat thermometer is
usually labeled with
temperatures of
doneness. For; .example,
for turkey and chicken,
thigh meat should
register 85 degrees C (185
degrees F), stuffing 74.
degrees C (165 degrees
F);, pork should register
80 degrees C (170 degrees
F) for a juicy roast, 85
degrees C (185 degrees F)
for a drier, more tender
roast; beef will 'register
60 degrees C (140 degrees
F) for rare, 65 degrees C
(150 degrees F) for
medium, and 75 degrees
C (170 degrees F) for
well-done.'" By following
the recon` ended guide.
xft i°i' intim" l.'- darsti g'
temperatures, you, can
have meat cooked
exactly the way you want
it.
Meat thermometers
are handy all year-round.
Since meat or poultry are
part of many meals, .it
makes good sense to cook
them to perfection with
the help of a meat
thermometer. You'll
probably want to buy' two
thermometers one as a
gift and one for yourself.

scene in the celebration
of Christmas in France.
All of the children
returned to the stage
where they sang "It's A
Small World", "We Wish
You a Merry Christmas",
and "Santa Claus Is
Coming to Town".
Then little eyes lit up as
Santa Claus burst into the
hall to deliver gifts and
candy canes as he sat on
stage amidst the excited
children.
