Try working in advance In order that you may enjoy your party or dinner along with your guests, plan on beginning preparation in advance: • Peel potatoes a day ahead, if necessary. Cover them with water, add a drop or two of vinegar and refrigerate till cooking time. • Washed, torn, cut or shredded green salad ingredients can be kept fresh and crisp by putting them in a paper -lined bowl. Put more paper napkins or towels on top and refrigerate. But don't mix your salad until the last moment. Sitting around in salad dressing causes green leaves to wilt. • A moulded salad can be turned out onto its dish early in the day, and returned to the refrigerator to reset. • And while we're on the subject of jellied things: to avoid this kind of dish going soft • around the sides, strengthen the gelatin ac- tion when you prepare it. If you're using flavoured gelatin, reduce every 2 cups of li- quid in the recipe down to 13/4 cups. For unflavoured gelatin, add an extra 1/2 envelope for every one called for in the recipe. You can buy celery and lettuce earlier than you think. They'll keep for a long time in the refrigerator if stored in paper bags. Leave the outer leaves on till it's time for washing. • Buy fresh parsley beforehand. Wash, trim the stems, dry in a towel. Then roll in foil and freeze. When you need it, grate what you need and refreeze the rest. (This saves chopping and snipping. ) $SINGER Come and see these incredible machines in action!

( Wendy Somerville photo) E 1 l yees frllow 5% guidelines EAST WAWANOSH - Members of East Wawanosh council hayed below the govern- ment's five per cent guidelines when awar- ding raises to township employees. Discussion revolved around Clerk - Treasurer Winona Thompson's salary. Mrs. Thompson asked for a five per cent wage in- crease, but two councillors, Fred Meier and Jim Taylor, were in favor of granting her four per cent. A five per cent increase would have brought Mrs. Thompson's yearly salary up to $21,000. She also gets a $1,000 car allowance plus OHIP benefits. She said she felt she needed the raise in pay to stay on par with other local clerks in townships like Turnberry and McKillop who make "$22,000 and $23,000" she told council. Turnberry Clerk -Treasurer Dorothy Kelly will earn $23,250 in 1983-84. Her salary is to be renegotiated in April. She also is paid mileage and OHIP and puts in a 40 -hour week. The clerk -treasurer in East Wawanosh's neighboring townships of Morris and West Wawanosh earn considerably less. Morris clerk -treasurer earns an estimated $16,000 per year, while Joan Armstrong, West Wawanosh, pulls in $15,750. Both said they put in 40 -hour weeks. Mrs. Michie's wage is subject to review in January of 1984. Mrs. Thompson said her ofice hours are from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., but she said she often is in the office until past 4 p.m. Before going to work in the mornings she must go to the post office, and after work, to the bank. Although the office hours posted are four days per week. Mrs. Thompson said most weeks she works the full five days. Plus she said she takes no lunch hour and has no sick - da) benefits. She estimated she puts in a 40 - hour week also. "I think it's worth it (the raise in pay)," she said. "I work from the time I'm here un- til the time I go home." Finally, after some further discussion, council granted Mrs. Thompson a 4.5 per cent wage increase, to bring her yearly salary up to $20,900. Road Crew Road Superintendent Ralph Campbell asked for, and was granted, a 42 -cent per hour wage increase. The increase brings him to $10 per hour in 1984 from $9.58 this year, an increase of 4.4. per cent. Council also granted a 38 -cent per hour wage increase to the township's roadmen, who will go from $9.12 per hour to $9.50 per hour, a 4.2 per cent increase. The two full-time road employees, Mr. Campbell and grader operator John McClin- chey, also get OHIP benefits and sick days. The casual labor rate will remain at $6.00 per hour. Reeve Neil Vincent was voted a $100 per year increase in his yearly honorarium, br- inging him up to $1,500 per year. Mrs. Taylor said he felt the reeve deserved such a pay hike because his job involves a lot of ex- tra meetings and work. The councillors voted themselves a five per cent wage increase to bring their yearly honorarium up to $1,050 from $1,000. Council members also get $35 for each special daytime meeting they attend.
