into a ball, turning the top, crusty
portion inwards as you roll. Place
confectioners' sugar in a bag. Shalee

After reading the column in
which I told how to make dough-
nuts of the "Down East" variety,
a relative asked why I hadn't also
included a recipe for another great
favorite with countless thousands
—the glazed' potato sort. So here
goes.

Now, to conclude, here is what
will be the answer to many a house-
wife's prayer --a very choice white
icing which is easy to make, yet
will not turf] to sugar. You can
make a batch of it and, if you don't
use it alI.on the cake or cup cakes
you're making ,you ,eau put the
balance in the refrigerator or other
cool place, and use it at a later
date.

This frosting will keep in a
covered jar in a cool place. If it
becomes hard on standing, add a
very small amount of hot water

frost 2 layers generously.
Gloomy Talk on't
Build A Community
Canada would be a happier,
healthier,,and safer country for fu-
ture generations if we had fewer
great cities and far more prosper-
ous towns. But we are not going to
get very far, at least in building up'
the towns, unless many business
leaders in these smaller places
sharply change their tulles and get
a little more faith in theirown
communities.
In its "Canadian Sample" the
Midland (Ontario) Free Press
Herald makes this charge:
"Very often he (the visitor) finds
that the majority of merchants
would rather grouse than do any-
thing else. They suggest that busi-
ness is as good as it might be, that
the industrial outlook is gloomy,
that it is not like the good old days.
"There are exceptions, and when
there are enough of them, you find
an exceptional town or city.
"But unfortunately too often they
grousers, who watch Toronto or
some other neighboring city or
town growing at what they think
is a faster pace than his municipal-
ity, are in the majority."
That attitude on the part of local
businessmen can ruin the growth
chances of even the best situated
town. Sometimes visitors are look-
ing for a likely place to set up a
new business, or they know some-
one who is or will be looking.
Sometimes they may represent a
financial institution interested in
investing funds. One doesn't need
to be told what their opinion will
be of Blankville's future after Main
Street's pessimists are through with
them.
