There is nothing more necessary for your well -bene, Have a complete change from what you are doing ev- ery day. If at all possible the busy mother should try to have at least a few days away from her family, •One mother claims that she saves the price of a cottage at the lake in the lessen- ing of her children's doctor's bills. It certainly is good for them to have sun and sand and water. Sometimes mothers seem to think that they have as much if not more work at their ,cottage than they do at home. How- ever it is a change of work and en- vironment which after all is the main -thing. There are two sisters who run tea-rooms in different cities. It i,s very difficult for them to get any time off for . holidays, so every once in a while they change tea-rooms go- ing by the old adage that a change is as good as a rest. If it is not pos- sible to get , away from home then lave as many days off as you can, Strawberry Ripe. Most of us agree heartily with the -man who said "doubtless the good Lord could have made a better fruit than the strawberry but He did not •do it." I. always feel sorry for those -poor unfortunate people whose sys- tems are poisoned by strawberries. Their season is so short and there ;are so many delightful ways of serv- ing them besides just strawberries and cream, that it behooves us to have them for as many meals as possible. Strwaberry Shortcake. First comes the ever popular straw - `berry shortcake. Frequently this is 'made with cake but personally I pre- p( fer the old-fashioned kind which is really nothing but rich hot biscuits •split and buttered and spread with •crushed and sweetened berries, both in between and on top of the biscuits. 'This may be served with either whip- ped or plain cream. If whipped cream is used reserve a few of the must lus- -cious looking berries for a garnish. If you prefer a large shortcake to in- .dividual ones divide your dough into two equal parts and pat or roll to fit you pan. Spread with butter and then put the other half on top. Baked 'by this methocl the cakewill split a- part readily after it is cooked. section -hand. There they continued to reside until 1917, when, Mr. Thotn secured the formanship of the Ford- wich section an4 they took up their residence here. For many years Mrs. Thom had been a sufferer from various ailments, and for over a year had been afflicted with chronic diabetes, having been bedfast since September of last year, On Thursday, May 30th, she was stricken with paralysis and passed Strawberry Pie. Strawberries have a delightful af- finity to pastry. A closed -in pie just requires a top andbottom of pastry, :a box of berries, a cup of sugar and, there you are. If you mix a level teaspoon of sago with your cup of sugar it will soak up some of the sup- erfluous juice and your pie is not so .apt to boil over. For variety a delic- ious pie may be made with uncooked berries. Crush the berries and add sufficient sugar fo sweeten. Heat a previously cooked pie -shell to freshen it. Fill with the crushed berries, top with whipped cream and serve im- mediately. This makes a good San - .day dessert as it may be prepared the ,day before. Crushed Strawberries Strawberries served in sherbet glasses make one of the prettiest des- serts for a party or for home con- sumption -for that matter. Crush suf- ficient berries, sweeten them ad chill thoroughly. Fill the sherbet glasses -with the mixture and put a generous spoonful of whipped cream , on top. The contrait of the red and white seen through the sherbet glasses adds to itS attractiveness. Strawberry Sauce Strawberry sauce for chocolate or vanilla ice cream for cottage pudding or in fact any light pudding is made by boiling gently 24 cup of white sugar and cu P 'boiling water for 10 minutes. Cool this an add one cup of mashed berries. A potato masher seenis to be My best weapon for ,crushing strawberries. For breakfast serve your berries natural, Select perfect specimens and • lcave•the hulls on. Put a little mound of fruit sugar on a plate and arrange the berries. around it. To make your Voich tea a bit different serve your • 'berries in this way with little cakes .and your favorite cobl drink, If the ,clayi Warm your guests Will rise and call you blessed: OBITUARY ,Mrs. John Thon-i, away about 6 o'clock in the evening of the following day.

These arti- cles are designed to impress upon the residents of Wingham the obligation, which. they owe to the community to purchase their needs from local merchants, a duty which they owe, not only to themselves, but also to every organization in the town. The Advance -Times is an advocate of community buying be- cause it believes that in the theory of buying at home and sup- porting home industries depends the success and advancement of this town. The merchant is responsible for the position which we hold in the province today. Through his efforts our schools, churches, and public institutions have been established as well as all civic rights which we enjoy. He has shown his confidence 11 the town and in you by establishing himself in business here, as- suming the greater burden of taxation and community respon- sibilities. The Advance -Times seeks to point the way to a greater and better interest. This series of editorials is designed to benefit the merchant by securing for him your confidence and support, and by so doing enable him to render you a more efficient service. If this task is accomplished, much will have been done to place Wingham well up in the list of prosperous Ontario towns. H. E. ISARD & CO.

Radio manufacturers have shown a decided preference for cabinets made by this firm, which with the phonograph cabinets and bath -room wood -fittings, keeps the staff busy. About 60 men are employed in this concern which IS one of the town's oldest established, and has a very bright prospect for the future. FRY & BLACKHALL, Limited, is one of the established manufacturing industries in town, which in the last ten years of its existence, have made wonderful progress. Outgrowing the old premises, a year ago they acquired the Union Factory, which gave them the required space to take care of their expanding business. Their Chesterfield Suites, Upholstered chairs and Chester -beds are deservedly popular, not only for their artistic design, richness of materials but for the excellence of workmanship. A Chester -bed has .many points of excellence and utility that gives the house- holder added sleeping facilities, together with an attractive piece of furniture, at a most reasonable price.... The firtn employs some 50 hands, and is no small factor in the towns stability. KING BROS. Offer something very special this week in Men's Straw Hats. The Store of Excellence.
