How many farmers who are care- ful to feed their live -stock a balanced ration ever give any thought to their own choice of food? Too many of them eat too much of the afore said meat, potatoes, white bread, and su- gar and then wonder why they grow old quickly. They blame it on the hard work they do on the farm, in- s M.

Hints For Homebodies Written for The Advance -Times By Jessie Allen Brown High School French -Undoubtedly our systeni of educe - lion is constantly being improved. The teaching of French seems to be one of the things that lags behind. -3,4y experience is probably about the -same as the rest of you who have studied in our Canadian schools. We were given a fairly good grounding in written French—so much so that 7 can still translate a surprising a- -mount. Oral French was a farce, as -there was little attempt to teach us to speak it. The same methods apparently are -used now, because any students with which I come in contact cannot speak French any better than we could— ;they certainly could not speak it any worse. • To be able to read French is not of very great benefit to us. I do .not imagine that there are' many of -our High School graduates continue to read French for plea.sure if the -same length of time and effort were Spent in teaching Oral French we would be considerably farther ahead. As conditions are now, few of us who have studied French for years ,can either speak or understand it. There are many occasions both at 'home and abroad when it would be 'very convenient to be' able to sj.eak French. The teachers are not to blame so much as the system. As long as Written French is necessary for ex- aminations then that is what will be taught. It should not be, an impos- sibility to have Oral examinations and shift the emphasis to them for a change. A start has beetj made in the right ,direction in the Summer Schools which are held hi Quebec for Eng- lish-speaking teachers. Many other teachers are a.ttending Summer - Schools in France, This 'will help ittnedy matters as a teacher who speaks French fluently will /Jay more attention to the Spoken word At the, present titiie many Canarliant are handicapped because they speak only' one language, We do not seem to be a race of Iingtiiste. Fried Potato The cool evenings liaee arrived and hot suppers are again popular. The 'worst of it is that so many suppers will consist mainly of cold meat and fried potatoes. Canadians live alto - 'gather too much on meat, potatoeb, White bread and sugar. All good stead of the food they eat, Muscles aild nerves cannot be kept young and fresh if they are not supplied with the proper food. I wish I knew how many farm homes use a quart of milk for each Child and a pint for each adult a day. Healthy Stiomaehs Need Work Fried potatoes is not a good food for daily consumption but there is no reason why the stomach of a healthy adult shoul4 not be able to •digest them occasionally, It is not necessary to pamper your stornaeh unduly and to be forever thinking of what agrees with you. If you find a food difficult to digest then it is only common sense not to eat it. If you eat foods difficult of diges- tion too frequently you are apt to over -work your digestive apearates and wear it out too soon. Method of Cooking If You will give your family fried potatoes, for goodness' sake fry there properly and make them as , easy to digest as possible, In the first plaee nee sufficient fat to keep them from stiekirig to the pan. Dripping is the best fat for this purpose. Butter is too expensive and is inclined to burn. The most important point of all is to have your fat hot whenyou Pat your potatoes in the pan, If ,,vou put them into the pan before it is hot the fat soaks into the potatoes and they are greasy. and harder: to digest tan ever, The fire should be fairly hot so as to brown the pota- toes and tints make a ,e,risp coating which prevents the 'fat from soaking Fried potatoes should never be giv- en to small people nor to Peg* with weak digestien. -Eggs, creamed Fish •or some food ef similar nature should be frequently substituted for the cold meat which usually aecorn- otneo rays: v:fv v:e't Qitt '11 3.vi e:;4;1, ra52:41 egg td4*eti le ;se ad 4/411:g 1 IntOt°n4't. • Pi:44ft) tro4isettes s ron,nettes. .yonr' mashed' pot*, • the quantity .of potatoes, Sean with, salt, pepper, anda. little EinOlY ',Otinq"6 ed onion.

Try as hard as it may to conceal the facts, the truth is written all over it, so that he who runs may read. No comouflage of bluff or bluseer can conceal the true situation from anyone who comes within the limits <sf the community. The worst part about it is that once dead a community never survives. The fact that it seldom can "come back" is easily ,explained. The growing and prosperous town today is the one that can attract new residents as well as capital. It is one that can offer attractive inducements to the outlying investor, whose faith is built up the progressive and co-operatiive spirits of its own community residents. A prosperous community is the same as a large corporation. They are stockholders, and as such look carefully to it that its affairs are administered in such a manner that is pays a good substantial dividend. This can only be ac- complished by buying in your community, keeping your money in circulation so it will come back to you. Patronize your mer- chants, encourage them to expand in a business way. Talk Wing - ham, Boost Wingham, and in doing so keep on keeping a "Live Community Alive."

E. ISARD & CO. WINGHAM, ONT. A. I. NORTROP You would naturally expect a real Englishman to know picnic meats, and this seems quite approptiate to the butcher business of A. J. Nortrop. He comes naturally to the trade. He knows meats and how to prepare them for market, and gives ser- vice such as an Englishman demands. Hence the north -end bat - cher shop always has on hand a very complete range of meats and fowl in season, with special attention to home-made sausage. **.k..ftWolinoWnieniolinigswar A. J.
