Where possible the farmers are turning the ground over in fall ploughing. The mistress of the'farin, village, town or city home has al- ready taken in the slips from the flower garden. The seeds which had produced these had been planted in the spring. The faith, which was planted with ,them, saw them grow and produced the Bowers which had made the gardea beautful. The work of these blOoms for the season is ended and they have pro- duced their seeds or bulbs for the next years planting. If the roots themselves are to be kept over they have been taken in. If not, they have been uprooted, gathered into little piles and burned and the beds have been raked over and smoothed down. In amongst the dead rubbish often appears a single flower, which has withstood the weather and which is still struggling to fight against nat- ure's frost. It arouses our pity. We pluck it and take it into the house to finish out its short existence. One such flower,.a rose, was taken into a patient's room in a hospital. At night, to all..appearances, it had withstood the 'elements as long. as it could( but in the morning in its stead, there had'4opened up a beautiful bloom. It carried with it a message long to' be remembered. So often we see people, who strug- gle along in life fighting. against ac- cepting the Lord. Then life is darir and Uninteresting. They are taken up with worldly pleasure and they absolutely refuse to put these things aside. To- all appearances their work here is of small avail or' of little value. Then they come in touch with some one who leads them to Christ All at once their lives are completely changed. Wheye there was lack of interest, now there is an eagerness to do God's work. In other words they have changed from a dying bud to a full blown rose, ready to give its •beauty to the world. The work of the gardener has not been in vain. The ability to become a full blown rose was there. What it needed was the warmth of the inside air at this season of the year to bring it out. Perhaps God has wanted us to go to someone and just give them the warmth of Christian love to bring them into the full bloom of Christ ' Tested Recipes 444 4...lekeiestievsetsfes-e. gese-eiesese.. SAUCES FOR THIS AND THAT It SO often said that the sauce makes the dish. This may seem an exaggerated statement, but it is true that a good 'sauce adds flavour and appeal,to the food with which it is served, and that a well -seasoned sauce semes a necessary complement to many foods.Cream sauce with its innumerable variations ,is un- doubtedly the most generally used of all the sauces. A few practical, eas- ily prepared variations of the sauce with their uses are suggested for the homemaker who is looking for new ways to serving simple dishes. Medium Cream Sauce (Basic Recipe) 2 tablespoons butter 2 -tablespoons flour 1 cup milk • Salt and pepper • Melt butter, blend in flour. Add milk gradually and cook, stirring • con- stantly until mixture thickens. Sea- son -with salt arid pepper. A little paprika added to the sauce gives it a richer colour. Variations of Cream Sauce Cheese Sauce: Add .1/2 cup grated cheese to cream sauce. Beat well. Serve with vegetables such as ceuliflower and asparagus. Egg Sauce: Add 1 hard -cooked egg, chopped, to 1 cup cream sauce. Serve with fish. Parsley Sauce: Add 1 tablespoon fin- ely chopped parsley to 1 cup cream sauce.

Re - be the work has been given to some one else to do, but there is the pos. sibility that we will be faced at Eternity with a lost soul because we did not do our duty. We say "I just cannot speak to such a one. I do not know what to say." When Jesus wants us to give His message. He has already gone before us and has prepared the ground as a gardener needs to go back several times to, encourage' the soil for planting so it may be necessary for us to present Christ's cause repeatedly to save some one for Him..but gpleat joy will come into our hearts when We can present that one to Christ, It is not always necessary for us 'to say very much. If we are true Christians our lives will show .it. People will see that we have something which they have not got, but which they would like to have. "Real religion can never be hid. Many souls have been won for the Kingdom by sincere love revealed in the life of one of His followers". Although we cannot go far ourselves we may speak a word to someone who later may be able to reach thousands. Someone has sahl"Are there mem- ories that will sweeten your sunset years and make you smile as You sit in a chair by a window, as the latter days of life come upon you?

The article would have been of greater. value if it had contained Some science and less armchair. It might have been written (posibly it was), hy a one.. cow dairyman intent on the peddling of milk from his tuberculous cow; mere likely it was written at the in- stigation of certified milk producers who are out to advertise and sell their product. • The article is full Of rais-state- ments. It is a tissue of falsehoods from beginning to end. Some Min- ister of Agriculture is said to have stated, "the human race existed long before pasteurization was heard of." Yes, and the human race will prob- ably continue to exist long after the cynical and irnorant Minister of. Ag- riculture is dead and forgotten. What is the pith of this article? It is that while pasteurizatioa de- stroys dangerous germs if also kills off harmless and useful germs and at the same time destroys some nutritious constituents. • The lactic acid germs are said to be killed and in consequence milk cannot sour and decompOse while undesirable germs multiply very quickly. Rosenau, in his Preventive Medi- cine, referring to lactic acid fermen- tation, says: "It is sometimes alleged that pasteurization does not destroy nature's danger signal -souring. Milk pasteurized at the temperatures re- commended (142-145 degrees F.), sours as a result of lactic acid fer- mentation just as raw milk does, al- though somewhat more siowly. Nat- ure has no danger signal for infect- ed milk. Milk may be teeming with typhoid bacilli and other disease micro-organisms .without its taste, odour or appearance being changed." The nutritious value of milk is not changed by pasteurization. There have been hundreds of experiments involving the use of pasteurized and raw milk for children at all ages, for calves, pigs, and other animals both in the United States and England. In every single case the children and animals thrived about equally well on raw and pasteurized milk with the scale if at all tipped to the side of the pasteurized article. It was found, however, in some of these experi- ments that animals fed on raw milk developed tuberculosis. No tubercul- osis resulted in either animals or children using pasteurized milk, Certainly clean milk is wanted. So is Peace among Nations. But all milkers are not clean and devoid of disease and all cows are not free from tuberculosis. Pasteurization is designed to prevent the effect of disease and dirt from reaching the 31801 of milk. Its use is analogous to the custom of filtering and ehlorine- tion of questionable water supplies and like the latter is ti process ac- cepted by science as a solution of the problem of dirty and infected miTlIhse claim that heat influences the avialability of calcium is generally denied by scientists. Boiled milk with 11 heat much greater than that of pasteurization is extensively used on the continent of Europe and else- where with no ill effects. Many studies, notably that of the U. S. public health service (1932 Report) lndicate that the growthiprometing property of milk eot injured -by heat What will undoubtedly appeal to mothers and fathers of families is established fact that communities where the milk is paSteurized are free from cases of 'bovine tubercul- osis and undulant fever and that many other diseases have had their malign influence materially reduced by the general Use of milk scientif- ically pasteurized.
