McGEE AUTO ELECTRIC 35S bsopiiee St., Wi110mw, 357-1416 OPEN MONDAY THRU SATURDAY "SALES BACKED BY SERVICE” a Some years ago an American magazine asked a number of fa- mous writers to select the words which they considered ta bye the most behutiful in the English: language. The word 'morning' got the most 'votes, followed closely by 'dawn', `golden', 'glory', `mother' and `mellow'.' But one of the more curious nomi- nations received was from the countryman poet Robert Frost who said that the most delightful sensation the language bad for him was,, to hear the words 'cellar door'. Seems to me that Frost must have been thinking of the cellar door of a farmhouse and the bliss- fully cool dark locked behind it on a sun -blistered summer's day. And I'm willing to bet that there wassomething cool to drink behind that door too when Frost sneaked in from the sweat and thistles of the hayfield. What would that drink be?' Well I can't know what Robert Frost had stashed away in his cellar - a barrel of cider maybe --but at our house it was homemade Hires Root ' Beer. Remember the powerful little bottle of Hires Ex- tract that mother , would buy at the grocer's - if, that is, there was a little money left over after the essentials were safe in the buggy? If used to cost 35 cents, and with that 35 cent brown bottle dumped into a copper boiler with enough sugar and yeast and water you could have four gallons of drink that was fit for the king of Araby. It wasn't quite that sim- ple, of course. You had to put the brew in airtight sealers first and give it time to mature, and there were some problems to that maturing. Those Mason jars of unripe brew had tO be put to rest on the darkest, coolest part of the cellar .floor. (A dirt floor was supposedly better than cement.) And the worst thing that could happen to the mix, or so our mother always warned, was to have it opened before it was time. It took six days for that concoc- tion to attain its proper magic, al- though for all our mother's worrying about it .I can never recall a.batch that :was allowed to mature full term without some- one sneaking in to sample it. In- d c aatc?. a alt l �g tide fact -that -Fong before the' six days were up, the yeast and Hires Ex- tract would have combined to build up a pressure that would nearly make a. jar blow its top, and after you had quaffed a glass or two the resulting burp was powerful enough to bring tears to your eyes. Even when it was officially ready, we weren't allowed to have it until it pleased mother to serve it with due .ceremony. That might. be 'Sunday after supper perhaps, or when company came and you cranked up a batch of homemade ice cream to go with it. Other than that about the only time you' got a drink of that preci- ous stuff was when you snuck down through the guilty gloom of that cellar door, looked furtively left, rig and centre, and then stole a q ick snifter of it. Oh, it was a . ri y business all right. The old ma might hit you a kick in the slats if he caught you, though he certainly wasn't above pirating a swig or two himself in secret. Never again, I think, will there be any drink with the same po- tential to tempt, no matter how LOW WHOLESALE PRICES Wallace Ave. S. 291-22i71 LISTOWEL AMPLE FREE PARKING - SAY IT WITH SEWING AND MILL ENDS exotic the fruits and amours which the great people find to far` into it.
