The Seaforth News, 1947-09-04, Page 3CHRONICI.I.:S OF GI•Nd ER FARM By Gwendoline P. Clarke How would you Care for a treat like this? First Niece arrivee here to spendtheremainder of her holidays last Tuesday and with her she brought about twenty pounds of blueberries which she had picked before scaring Val D'or, where she had bccn staying. That . was just about the nicest present anyone could wish for, don't you think? We are all fond of blueberries so you, can well imaginethat none went to Waste. We ate them .raw, in pies, gave some away and then I still had enough left tofill one 11 start and seven pint scalers. , * * a• It was very hot when we received word from Toronto that niece Joy was in the city so Bob and 1 drove in to get heel When we lett here 1 thought,] had had just about all the heat 1 could take but in Toronto we found it was certainly a great deal worse. There was -a breeze but no freshness in it—it was more like air being blown our way from a huge bonfire.' At Sunnysitle we noticed the beaches were crowded with people seeking somes respite from the blistering heat but it didn't look to me as if they could.be much cool= er even there—except for those in the watere The most bearsble place we hit was the veranda at the apart- ment house where daughter rooms. It is a lovely street, just off Yonge, and yet so tquiet and shady, As we sat on the veranda I looked at the massive maples, unmistakable evidence that, in many instances, those responsible for the planning and surveying of Toroitto streets in days gone by had shown consider- able foresight and had left standing as many trees as they possibly could. Trees are so restful and yet, as with so many things in life, we .don't always realisetheir beauty from a close-up view. We have plenty of trees around here—just ordinary, everyday trees—and to look xi them from across the yard or from the dowitstair windows in the house, they are—well—just trees. But Sunday night after our week- end gang had gone their various ways and only Partner and 1 were at home, there was still some day- light left and 1 felt restless and 6dgetty, so that, in seeking—I hardly knew what, 1 wandered upstairs to the spare room and sat down by the open window overlooking the south fields and pastures. And to my sur- prise it Was just as if I were seeing them for the first time. Looking at otw own stahvart oaks—although there were only two of them within view—and a few graceful elms I wondered how I could have missed seeing their beauty before.'Presently I realised it was all in the perspective —this time 1 was looking at 'them from a higher level—not from the ground as I usually do. just to satis- fy my curiosity 1 went downstairs, walked to the south side of the house, looked across the snme fields, saw the saint: trees, and yet they didn't seem the same at an. The green of the trees was brownish and dry, the hayfield parched and unin- teresting, certainly it was not a view that one would ever think of looking at twice. And yet from that higher level.... From fields and trees my thoughts ran on to other matters, to the prob- Tile of Pennies, sponsored by Hong Kong Veterans' association of Canada at Toronto, got a contribution from Constable Carl Ford, seen here with Dolly Weir and Pauline Kostik. The girls later collected the pennies for the veterans' fund in pails. Ien,s that beset us day by day, and 1 wondered if they too would be Tess formidable if looked at from "a higher brei " * * * But it is too hot to moralise, may- be it will be more to the point if I hurry along our four o'clock cup of tea, I ant sure the men will appreciate it --to say nothing of your, truly. I am wondering which of our men has the hottest job—Partner is digging out the barnyard, Bob is driving the tractor on the summer fallow—and I can't imagine anything hotter and dirtier -and Tohn is across the road helping a neighbour to draw in wheat. No doubt each one will think he has worked harder than the other two. The tea has been mads„ swallowed thirstily and duly appreciated al- though 1 used a little less tea, this, and every time, to even up the cost since the price of tea went un. Those rising prices! One wonders when and at what level they will reach their peak, and then which will slide first—prices or wages? The whole set-up is, what one might call, a pain in the neck. Yes, even to the price of eggs with no benefit to the poor bld biddies who are so hot in their feather jackets and work so faithfully at their arduous job of laying. But why they all must crowd on one nest is past my understand- ing. We have lost two hens this summer by overcrowding—and yet either side of the crowded nest there were nests with never a biddy on them at all. Frozen Food Now they're flying frozen fond to Alaska! A Northern Airlines plane left Boeing Field en route to Fair- banks, Alaska, with a cargo which included 1,500 pounds of frozen fruits and vegetables — the first batch of frozen foodstuffs ever flown to the territory.

TEEN -TTN TOPICS By BARRY MURXAR Every so often, something prompts us to mention those peo- ple that we hear about daily, who are helping the teen-agers either in the educational, entertainment or some other field. Today we are thinking of Joe Chrysdale of Toronto's CKEY, Joe has been in the driver's seat of "Club 580" ev- er since it went on the air, He likes the kids and they like him. Not because he gives them guest tickets to this and that or an al- bum of their favorite records; but because his genial manner of putting them on "the air" mates them feel that they have a friend who doesn't want to make a fool of theta when he has then, on the spot. The fact that his broadcasts are jammed to capacity every time he takes to the air ways, testifies to his popularity. The funny thing about it is, that Joe who seems to be in all his glory when on the air with Club 580 has another show that makes him fel even more, glorified or, should we say, contented. That show is the "baseball broadcast", or for that matter, any sports -cast. Yes, our Joe wants to be the bestest little old sports announcer ever, But despite his hidden desires we havc a feeling that, he would be last without his daily visit with the gang on Club 580. To sum it all up, we think Joe Chrysdale is do- ing a great job with this show and filling a much needed spot for the kids, Good licit, and keep it up Joe, Youth Centres Needed This week conies a letter from an old friend of way back. Gwen Kemp, following our item two weeks ago on the community halls, says: "Congratulations on your excellent column. It fills a great need for the young people as it gives us a feeling of having someone interested in our prob- lems. I was greatly interested in your recent remarks on the build- ing of youth centres. After all, the idea of youth centres is not with- out experience. What about the YMCA. and YWCA? What are they besides youth centres? Of course they have adult leadership, but then the youth themselves de- cide what they want. A anther thing—if we don't dance and have parties under properly supervised conditions, then we have to go to the dance halls where we have the older folks coating in drunk, swearing and generally setting bad examples. Is there a choice there? (Gwen: you said its) "With youth centres you are more apt to find someone who is interested in the things you are interested in. Here in Toronto it is 'much easier to find a group whi like the things I like doing. So why shouldn't those in the small towns have a chance too? "Thanks a lot for writing such I- JITTER a swell column."—Gwen Kemp. Thanks a lot for writing such a swell letter Gwen. You debated a question in a very fine manner, and I would say that you have won the debate. May I add that when olders start talking about the kids of today and how they %ave to cater to then,,—well, as Gwen has pointed out, when they appear in the condition some of them do, it is better to have a place for the kids so that they' won't go home dig-illusioned, ashamed and generally fed up with the old folks. Diets Are Important Maybe because we have been thin for so long and never a heavy -eater at anytime, we are prompted to set forth the "Teen - Age Diet" that appeared in a na- tional weekly not long ago. The diet is a must for teeners and es- pecially those who eat too little and generaly turn up their nose at everything that is set before them. Here is the diet: Milk, 4 cups; Ieafy green and yellow vege- tables, at least otte serving; cit- rus fruits, tomatoes anti raw cab- bage, at least one serving; pota- toes, at least mtc serving; meats, fish, poultry, dried beans or peas (one or two servings of cheese or eggs may be substituted if de- sired) ; bread and whole -grain cereals, liberal quantities every day; butter, some daily. These are minimum amounts daily. Only af- ter your teen-agers have eaten those basic foods, should they have desserts, ice cream and little snacks. Mother llurkar will not sit down and shut tip. The Answer '1'o the young fellow of the home town who asked us on the street the other day why we didn't stick to local news in our column, the answer is: this column appears in quite a number of weeklies around the province and the kids in all the other towns are not primarily interested in our town ---even if we do think it is the best place in the world. • King George Gives Estate to Princess Buckingham Palace announced recently that the King had given Sunninghill Park, picturesque 300- acre Berkshire estate, to Princess Elizabeth, who will be married Nov 20 to Lieut. Phinip Mountbat- ten, former Prince Phillip of Greece. The clematis -covered mansion adjoining Windsor Castle, one of the Royal residences, will be the country home of the heiress pre- sumptive. No decision has been reached about a home for the Royal couple in London. "The King has been graciously pleased to grant Sunninghill Park to Princess Elizabeth as a grace and favor residence," the palace announcement said, "Grace and favor" residences arc those in possession of the King which he bestows at his own dis- cretion. TABLE TALKS ® . The homemaker may sit down to a satisfying meal that attracts the -eye and teases the taste and at the sante time be as cool as the proverbial cucumber herslf, if she does a little planning and pre- paration in the morning. The Home Economists of the Consumer Section, Dominion De- partment of Agriculture say that there are many ways to arrange this. A boiled ham or beef loaf, stored all ready to serve in the ice box or cool cellar, and a large jar of salad dressing are first aids in any meal emergency, for which greens from the garden for salad and fruit for dessert the meal it on the table. A hot dish stimulates the appe- tite and adds variety. This may. be quickly served if some of the preparation is done ahead of time, Hard cooked eggs may be halved or sliced in a curry sauce or they may become "a la -King" in a plain cream sauce with bits of onion and sweet red peppers. Quartered tomatoes laid on hot buttered toast and covered with a hot cheese sauce make a new kind of rarebit. Here are two good supper dishes one hot and one cold.
