WIHOTIAM ADVANCE -TIMES
flints For Homebodies
Written for The Advance -Times
By
Jessie Allen Brown
Are you planning to have holidays?
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:

Your Duty- Buy at Home
This is the first of a series of twenty-six editorials which will
appear in the Advance -Times on Community Buying. 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.

GUNN-SON-OLA, during the past few years have so in-
creased their businesS as to employ more men, and to use the
whole of the big factory. 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.
