HomeMy WebLinkAboutZurich Herald, 1933-10-26, Page 3There's something charming about afternoon tea -something quiet and restful. It's the easiest way to enter- tain and no natter how large or small your tea party Is the requirements are the sante, that is, good tea, .,,a few dainty refreshments and pleasant con- versation. Tea may be served from a tray, a tea wagon, or if our party is a large one, from the dining -room table. Lit- tle extras such as slices of orange with a clove stuck in them, a bit of candied ginger; colored sugar in such flavors as lemon, lime, mint, etc.; rum -flavored sugar lumps; salted nuts; colored mints of assorted flavor all add charm and an air of sophistication. Of course you will use your best china tea pot. Scald it and place the required quantity of tea in it and pour over the leaves one cup of boiling water. Let the tea steep for three minutes if you're using black tea, or for ten minutes if you're using green tea, then add the remainder of the re- quired amount of boiling water. Serve tho tea immediately.. Cream, sugar and slices of lemon should be served with it. Refreshments which are "different" are always a problem and here are some suggestions which are'new and easy to prepare: Cream Cheese, Walnut and Cherry Spread Blend 1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, 1/4 cup finely chopped walnuts and 12 candied cherries• which have been chopped with a silver fork. Trim white or whole wheat bread in fancy shapes, butter and spread with mix- ture. ixture. Chocolate Sandwiches 2 squares unsweetened chocolate, 1 cup sweetened condensed milk, butter thin wafers. Melt chocolate in a dou- ble boiler. Add sweetened condensed milk and stir over boiling water until mixture thickens. Spread on butter thins and garnish with tiny stars cut from red or green maraschino cherries. Nut Strudels 1 cup nut meats, 1 1/3 cups (1 can) sweetened condensed milk, 1 cup dry bread crumbs, 1/i, teaspoon salt, 1 table- spoon cinnamon, pie crust dough. Put nut meats through food chopper. Blend with sweetened condensed milk, bread crumbs, salt and cinnamon. Roll erust out in oblong sheet as thin as possible. Spread with prepared mixture. Rosi up as for Jell roll. Cut in half-inch slices and place on buttered baking sheet. Brush tops with sweetened. condensed milk. Bake 20 minutes in hot oven (400 deg,) or until brown. Makes 18. Date Bars 2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk, 1/4 cup flour, 1/2 teaspoon baking pow- der, 1/3 cup pitted dates, 1/4 cup chop- ped nut meats, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. Sift flour and baking powder. Add chopped dates, chopped nut meats, sweetened condensed milk and vanilla. Blend thoroughly. Line a shallow pan (8 inches square) with wax paper and spread mixture evenly about 1/2 inch deep. Bake 30 minutes in a slow oven (300 deg. P,) Remove from oven, turn from pan and remove paper at once. Cut into bars one by four inches with a sharp knife, while warm. Makes 16. Cinnamon Sticks Blend 2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk and 1/3 cup water thoroughly. Cut six slaves of bread one inch thick. Then cut into one -inch strips. Dip in mixture and fry in butter until golden brown, While hot, roll strips in a mix- ture of granulated sugar and cinnamon. Delightful with tea. 'Ten 'Minute Tea Cakes 6 graham crackers, 1 tablespoon Hour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk, 1 egg white, brown sugar, Roll graham crackers to fine crumbs. Combine with flour and baking powder. Add sweetened condensed 'Thilk. Fold in stiffly beaten egg white. Drop by spoonfuls into paper -lined muffin pans. Sprinkle each cake with brown sugar. Bake in moderately hot oven (375 deg. T',) 10 to 15 minutes, Makes one dozen. Bulk Foods Iu no respect is the otherwise sound- ly planned diet more frequently lack- Woman's 13y MAIR M. MORGAN ing than In foods that supply the bulk or fibre necessary to assure proper elimination. Most of us pare our fruits, eat our potatoes without their jackets, and eat prepared foods out of which the bulls has been refined. Time and again the penalty is irregular or Incomplete elimination, leading straight to loss of vitality, headaches and a generally depressed outlook on life. You are wise if you adopt as one of the most important health command- ments for yourself and your family the regular inclusion on the menu of the foods that provide the bulk the system needs --- lettuce, cabbage, carrots, chard, whole wheat'bread and cereals, and bran, Bran is particularly con- venient and helpful. It can be com- bined with relined foods and served in all sorts of other appetizing ways, and besides bulk it supplies iron needed for the making of good, red blood, to- gether with Vitamin B, of value in ton- ing the intestines. Three In One Recipe (Bran Muffins, Waffles and Griddle Cakes) % cup shortening, 3f cup sugar, 3 eggs (well beaten), 1 2/3 cups sour milk, 11/2 cups bran, 2 cups flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon soda, 1 teaspoon salt. Cream shorten- ing and sugar. Add eggs, sour milk and bran and let soak until most of moisture is taken up. Sift flour with baking powder, soda and salt and add to first mixture -stirring only until flour disappears. Bake in greased muf- fin tins in a moderate oven (400 deg. F.) for 20 to 25 minutes or in a hot waffle iron, Some of the mixture may be thinned with water or milk and used for griddle cakes. Yield: 16 small muffins, 3 waffles or 8 griddle cakes, Honey Bran Pudding 1/4 cup butter, 2/3 cup honey, 1 egg (well beaten), s/E cup milk, 1 cup seed- less raisins, i/. cup bran, 1 cup flour, % teaspoon soda, 1/z teaspoon salt. Cream butter and honey together. Add egg, milk and bran. Sift dry in- gredients and mix with the raisins. Add to first mixture.' Combine thor-' oughly and put into greased mold; cover tightly, and steam for two hours, Serve with hard sauce. Yield: 6 large servings. Dress Up the Meat Try serving meat in new forms. You will find that your family will appreci- ate the novelty.. A dash of sugar in meat dishes works wonders. It accen- tuates the flavor of the meat and, of course, adds a little quick -energy to the dish as a whole. Try the following recipes: Beef Loaf 11 pounds round of beef, 1 quart cold water, 1 tablespoon vinegar, 1 tea- spoon sugar, 1 teaspoon sage and thyme, mixed, 1 tablespoon sauce, salt and pepper. Simmer the beef in the water with the salt until meat is ten- der. Cool. Remove bones and fat, and chop very fine. Boil the liquid until re- duced to one cup. Add vinegar, sugar, sage, sauce, thyme, salt and pepper. Mix with the meat. Press into a but- tered mold and leave to become thor- oughly cold. Serve with tomatoes and lettuce with mayonnaise. Stuffed Flank Steak Have a flank steak trimmed and scored; that is, cut all over the surface in criss-cross lines. Mix together one cup bread crumbs; one small onion, chopped; one-half cup grated raw car- rot; one-half cup finely diced celery; one tablespoon minced parsley; one teaspoon sugar; salt and pepper to taste, and one-third cup hot water or enough to moisten. Spread this mix- ture over the flank steak. Roll up as tightly as possible. Tie firmly and sprinkle with flour, pepper and salt. Brown quickly in hot fat. Then place in a covered pan and bake in a moder- ate. oven for one and one-half hours. Baste two or three times during the cooking with two tablespoons butter melted in one-third cup boiling water. When done, remove the strings. Serve with brown gravy made from the fat in the pan. Believing a fool story is almost as bad as telling a fool story. 0111021.11111.011101, ..... Sunday School -•-•-•tet 5 . . •.1'+�Y!..- •... Lesson V.-Octobea 29. World's Tem perance Sunday, --- Romans 13:12- 15,3 Golden Text -Love worketh no ill to his neighbor; love there. fore is the fulfilment of the law,-- Rom, 13:10, Lesson TIME -Paul's letter to the Romans was written A.D. 57, PLACE -It was written k Corinth,' "The night is far spent, and the day is at hand." Paul means by night, ignorance of. God. "Let us therefore. cast off the works of darkness, and let 11,3 put on the armor of light." Christians, who have seen the Light of Life and are living in fellowship with him, ought to do the things that he would approve, spurning the deeds of darkness. "Let us walk becomingly, as in the day." In seemly fashion; in 1 Cor. 14: 40, it is rendered "deeenaly," No- thing is uglier, more uncouth than drunkenness, "Not revelling and drunkenness," The last word in the Greek is in the plural, signifying drinking -bouts or sprees. That is the worst of drunkenness, one drink leads to another. "Not in strife and jeal- ousy," Drunkenness leads also to quarrels. All of these sins were fre- quently committed, as Paul knew, in the wicked city 'of Rome, the capital of the world. "But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ." Paul bids us enter into union with Christ so close that he will be- come the close environment in which we live and move. "For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; or whether we die, ,we die unto the Lord." In life or death alike we are responsible to Christ, because through all changeswe are the pos- session of Christ, who has bought us with a price for his own. "For to this end Christ died and lived again, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living." As he died to acquire, so he rose to claim and exercise that right of purchase and dominion over his redeemed, which it is their joy to know that their death does not even interrupt, for then they are at home with the Lord. "For if because of meat thy brother is grieved, thou walkest no longer in Ik.ve." We must translate this and what follows from the prrblem of Paul's day to the problem of our time. Paul here is writing about eating. neat which had been consecratedto idols. All the meat sold in the shops and eaten in the homes of the heathen friends and relatives of the Roman Christians had previously formed a part of idolatrous sacrifices in the temples. A converted idolater, par- taking of such food, was likely to feel stealing over him a flood of the licen- tious memories associated with idol - worship. "Destroy not with thy meat him for whom Christ died." It was nothing less than soul -destruction to invite to one's home a convert fro__i heathenism and place before him meat contaminated with idolatry. "Let not then your gaud be evil, spt.ken of."' Your good is that which is beneficial to your special advantage, and can only mean, in accordance with the context, your stronger faith and fusee liberties. "For the kingdom of God is not eat- ing and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit." This is not the essence of the gospel, this freedom to eat and to drink: the kingdom of God is somet'airg higher than this. In the kingdom of God the important things are righteousness in 01 r relations to others, and the peace and joy which result from true spir- itual fellowship. What a triviality, compared with these great and per- manent things, is what we eat, or what we drink! "For he that herein (that is, in righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit) serveth Christ is well - pleasing to God, and approved of men." Well ,pleasing to God, since such service is what he enjoins; and approved of men, standing the test of their moral judgments. "So then let us follow after things which make for peace, and things whereby we may edify one another," Weymouth translates the last clause as "mutual upbuilding of character." "It is good not to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor to do anything where- by thy brother stumbleth.' This sums up the whole story. A Chuckle Bringing with him an electric atmos- phere, a young man strode into the newspaper office and banged• his cane on the editor's desk, "Where's the 'editor?" lie shouted angrily. "He's -he's out!" replied the clerk nervously. "What's he done this time?" "M that advertisement for my valve- less motor," stormed the visitor, "he's turned the second 'v' into a `u'." Describes Dire Need In Labrador Missionary Tells of Distress in His Far -Flung Territory Widespread distress among the La- brador Indiums was described by Rev. D. C. Noel to the Cathedral Women's Missionary Associations in St, Johu'e, Newfoundland, in an address appeal- ing for assistance in his extensive territory, After a furless winter the Indians bad eonie out of the woods empty- handed, mptyhanded last spring and early this summer. Families which had eag- erly awaited the usual returns from the fur trade had been in want (lur- ing the summer and were facing hardship as another winter approach- ed. The unusually soft winter of 1932-33 had caused a scarcity' of fur - bearing animals. Mr, Noel's address took the form of a travelogue through 22 settle- ments spread along the hundreds of miles comprising the mission, by boat during the summer months and by komatik In winter. His headquarters were at Battle Harbor, but owing to the distances to be covered the missionary often was absent from home for months at a time. He said there was extreme pover- ty in many settlements and spoke in appreciative terms of the work of the Women's Home Mission Association in providing clothing for the Indians. Making a strong appeal for further assistance, he warned that adequate relief', measure should be taken im- mediately to ensure that sufficient supplies would be available before navigation closed. So serious were: conditions in some villages that the Newfoundland Gov- ernment had to distribute supplies this summer to keep the Indians from starving. Woman Collects Natural Specimens -Of Manitoba Flora Has Found 915 of the Exist- ing 1,013 Known to Exist in Her Province The hobby of collecting material specimens of Manitoba flora hasbe- come for Mrs. E. J. McMillan, of Wood- haven Park, a pleasure that has now given her a unique distinction, writes Lillian Gibbons. Her collection is the largest amateur one in Manitoba and isperhaps in the whole Dominion, After she had. collected some 300 specimens, and had identified them to the best of her knowledge, she sent the lot to the Manitoba Agricultural. College for correction by a botanist. When she received her collection back she received also a "Check List of Manitoba Flora." Up to this point the woman botanist had not known of the existence of such a list much less had she seen one. In the book there are listed 1,013 speci- mens. "I had 300 at that time, and the book was a challenge to me." To -day, Mrs. McMillan has 915 speci- mens, just 98 short of the total number known to exist in Manitoba. Trees, weeds, shrubs, everything that grows -is contained in that list. Her method of mounting has sur- prised and delighted professionals. Her specimens are so delicately placed that they look like paintings. Their colors are preserved and no ugly smudges of glue are visible. Nor are there bumps on the centre of the pages -be- cause not all the specimens are placed in the middle. Mrs. McMillan has brought home part of the locale with a specimen in order that it might have familiar soil in which to thrive. Sometimes, this attention is appreciated by the wild flowers; at other times, the flower grows away from its special sod and seeks another spot in the garden. The chickweed runs away and makes itself at home in the regular garden. I have seldom known any one who deserted truth in trifles that could be trusted in matters of importance: -Paley. ' Four per cent more people were employed in New Brunswick's fish- eries in 1932 than in the preceding year, or a total of 15,764. If a man's fortune does not fit him, It is like the shoe in the .story; if tob large it trips him up, if too small it pinches hien. :Horace.

Note the plural, "voices", for Wendell sings In threedistinct pitches, and his sponsors wanted to insure all three voices for $100,000 against mishap, They made application with the A. F.
