Food Notes
Wleii`tlie 'small portion of , jam-
acid honey. which '• is now awaiting
space liy rail and ship for overseas
is ' transported a total of 283,400
pounds of these greatly appreciated
sweets will have been sent this year
from Ontario. `
Thirtvageven branches- es• • donated
homeinade jam for the • Red Cross
W.I. jam project. In many areas the
-fruits used were donations or ripe
fruit which would otherwise have
been lost if not converted at the
proper time into the jam which BA':
tots and - Canadian servicemen
(n 'hospitals alike relish so greatly.
The • faithful crew of 'volunteer
packers at the Red Cross jam
kitchen at 10 Jahnke 'St., Chathatu,,
hammered down the last lid 'on over-
seas jam boxes on Armistice . Day...
Statements were totalled and marl
ed to each of the 35 organizations
who took part in "this work. Over
7,900 hours of volunteer women
tabor had• gone into the production
bf ,20,000 pounds of jam alone- and
time that cannot be computed went
into the raising of money; Women's
Institutes contributed 12,000 pounds
of honey in addition to the jam they
helped. make. .
The village teacher ` was . having
difficulty with some little evacuees.,
After several unsuccessful attempts
the asked little Tommy:
'.Can, .you tell me where Noah
lived?"'
"I don't think he had a regular
home," replied,;the boy. "I imagine
he and his faintly belonged to ' the
floating population."
Those who have stirred twenty.
pound kettles of boiling jam • for-
over an hour in order to produce the
16. pounds of jam necessary to fill
four Red Cross four -pound cans
and nursed a .blister or two from the
splashes, have contributed a very
real effort to the war. These who
sat for patient hours sorting and
peeling fruit, grinding fibrous fruits
such as quinces and. Pemons by the
hour, handling scalding cans from
the sterilizer, patiently washing
every sticky vestige of join from the
can, and neatly polishing• and labell-
ing them, packing down the heavy
cases, hammering down' -'the 54
pound boxes, often; stacking then
three deep' on the freight table -all
deserve great credit. '
