Sire says Ontario apples are bath a `hood and refreshment" "If children were ,allowed free ac- cess to apples, there woulin't be the need of so many medicine bottles on the bathroom shelf" she vigorously declares. "Apple Annie"' has prepared a list of recipes she would like you to use. Here they are, Won't you try them? APPLE CRISP ,PUDDING: Peel and core 6 to 8 apples and cut in slices les inch thick to make 4 cups of apples; 1 teaspoon cinna- mon, 7 tablespoons butter, Se cup water., 1 on sugar, % cep flour (pastry or cake.) Butter casserole, add apples, then pour over the water. Work together sugar, cin- namon, flour and butter with finger , tips until crumbly. [Spread over the apples mixture, then bake un- covered. 'Serve while warm with whipped cream. Temperature 375; beating time 45 to 60 minutes. STUFFED APPLE SALAD: Cook apples as for coddlled apples, Pill centres with cobtage or cream cheese mixed with chopped nate, soltene4 with salad dressing. Serve ou redia of heart lettuce or on o bed of shredded lettuce. BAKED APPLES STUFED WITH SAUSAGE: 'Scoop out centre of apple, leaving a thick shell, Out all pulp possible from. core.

Bake in moderate oven until apples are tender, STUFFED APPLE'S: Core large sound cooking applere Fill the centres with a •mixture of brown sugar, chopped nuts and dates or raisins.

Here, lantern provided atmosphere, but flash bulb, held above camera, supplied light needed for detail In subject. T TNTIL a few years ago, snapshots ‘..J outdoors at night were rather hard to make. Now, thanks to extra high speed film, thousands of snap - shooters take them. The fast film plus a fast lens is sufficient for brightly -lighted street scenes and flood -lighted buildinge. For outdoor pictures of people at night, all one needs is a camera that can be set for a time exposure, and a "flash" bulb in its inexpensive flashlight -type Bolder. To take such pictures, simply place the camera on a firm support, and sot the shutter for "time." Posi- tion the subject in front of the cam. era, click the shutter open, flash the bulb and close the shutter, If the surroundings are dark and there are no lights within the viow of the lens, the camera may be held in the hand. For flash pictures, the camera can be loaded either with regular "chrome typo" film or one of the panchromatic films. The distance be. tweon the flash bulb and•the subject determines the size lens opening yott should use. Here aro suggested distances frgm, bulb to subject, outdoors, when you use a No. 10 -size bulb with the metal reflector that is a part of the small battery operated holder: for "chrome" type film, 7 feet; for high speed film, 3.4 feet. These distances will provide correct exposure when you use a box camera, or a camera 'with anastiginat lens set at f.16. 'Correct distance from tight to sub - Jed is important; but distance from camera to subject doesn't matter, as far as illumination is concerned. Several of the special small flash bulbs can be carried in an overcoat pocket. Those are convenient to car- ry on a hike. They can be used for box -camera pictures if high speed film is employed—but, of course, since the small bulb yields less light than a large bulb, it must be placed nearer the subject. With flash bulbs, you can picture winter sports subjects at night, and other outdoor activities, though without a special flash bulb syn- chronizer, do not attempt to "stop" very rapid action, Interesting light- ing effects can be obtained by flash- ing the bulb from unusual positions —for example, holding it low to ob- tain a lighting angle which suggests firelight. With time exposures, excellent pictures can be obtained of campfire scenes at the skating rink or pond. Campfire "titre" exposures can be made without using a flash bulb—or, the bulb can be flashed just at the end of the expoeuro, to olltain added detail In the scene, Por true firelight pictures, the high speed panchro- matic flims are best. Take your camera along whenever you go on a skatteg or sleighing ex- cursion, or moonlight hike. A few flash bulbs enable you to use the camera--and"flash" pictures are always unusual and interesting, 225 John van Gender aes Butter stale bread.

Royalty Can't Visit Quints If the Dionnes, Guardians Wish The Quintuplets to Be Seen By King and Queen, They Must Go To Sudbury Camadpan government authorities have revealed that no provision has been made in the royal tour for a stopover at Callender or at the home of 'the Dionne quintuplets, Reports .reaching Ottawa from London said. that the Queen had expressed desire to see the quints, but external affairs officers point- ed out that the itinerary, which already has been approved, does 1 not include such a visit. If the quints' guardians wish the quints to be seen by Their Majesties they will have to visit Sudbury, it is understood. .Another Weekly Quits The Grimsby Independent regr'et- fu11y announces that because .lf leek of patronage by the local ' merchants its life blood—,advertis- a ing, has ebbed away and it is forcel to cease publication. This is a 1 blow to the pretty town of Grimsby • and if the merchants but lealizetl It, another peg in the coffin of the town. Merchants who will not patronize their hone paper by ad- , vertising their wares are belping to foster the trade of the big city stores and every dollar sent out of town to buy outside merchandise makes the town just that much poorer. We believe that there is a no more welcome visitor than .h:u weekly newspaper in the neighbor- hood whicih it serves.

We feel sorry .for the merdhants who may wake up too late to the unmitigated blessing the local newspaper is. Advantages Of Electric Fence This Type of Fence Is Being Adopted More Widely In Canada Because of Its Gen- eral Range of Usefulness The introduction 02 the electric fence into Canada has been receiv- ed with ,much aluderest and it is gradually becoming more widely adopted for fencing pastures. This type of fence has teeny aclvautagee, but at the same time caution Is necessary in establishing the equip- s ntent. Research and further in- vestigation will, no doubt, improve the safety features, its efficiency and general range of usefulness. The acleantnges of an electric fence are briefly enumerated as follows: 1, Reduees the cost of 'erecting temipetamy fences. 2. 'lettuces expetrtlituees for wire, posts and gates, 8, Reduces. injury to live stock, 4, Especially adapted to windbag coulees oe temporary mature areas otherwise impractical to fences, 5, Enables the use of untillable land in fields that otherwise Might be 'wes-ted, "• T wonder if Jim will call tonight?"
