APPLE A DAY
olio, Homemakers! We've been
dolt singe more research for you on
the;'
, apple, this time, and here are a
few interesting facts we found out.
Did;'you know that all our present-day
varieties of apples descended from
the crab apple tree? Compare the
tixty, hard, tart ,crab apple with some
of Our more luscious specimens.
• * *
The Acadian brought the first ap-
ple trees across the Atlantic mainly
for the purpose of making cider. To-
day that Annapolis Valley is Nova
Scotia's valiey of apples.. More than
-a million barrels of rosey-cheeked
,fruit are produced each season from
the grafts of those old Acadian plant-
ed trees. Annapolis Valley is liter-
ally "the • apple orchard of the Em-
pire•"
* * *
Many districts pay their tribute to
the apple in the;Spring by sponsoring
an Apple Blossom Festival. The cele-
brations include tours of the blossom -
laden countryside, pageants, parades
or balls and the coronation of a queen.
Bowmanville, was picturesque last
year in apple blossom time.
* :r *
Scientists have started to take the
apple apart " for research. They tell
us that the average apple is filled
J
with compressed air. Normally 'this
air would occupy a space forty-eight
times the size of an average apple.
* * *
The apple lends itself with delight-
ful ease, to any menu, from salad to
dessert. Here, are some suggested re-
cipes for that scrap -book.
* *
Apple Salad
Core and scoop out the centre of
good Snow apples (or a variety of
good flavor). Put them into water
containing a little lemon juice until
ready to fill them. Dice and mix
equal parts of celery, apple,' grape-
fruit' and honey dressing. Put in ap-
ple shells and serve on lettuce crisp-
ed in electric refrigerator.
* * .k
Broiling Meal
Pork Chops, Sweet Potatoes, Baked
Apples
Arrange sliced. cored apples and
pork chops on a lightly greased broil-
ing pan. Adjust pan in the electric
oven so that the food is about' three
inches befow the glowing broiling el-
ectric element. Broil 10 minutes with
door partly open, then sprinkle with
salt and peliper. Turn chops and
potatoes. Add baked apples stuffed
with cheese. Broil another 10 min-
utes.
x:. :r *
Apple and Sausage Casserole
6 apples
Sugar (about one-third cup)
12 sausages
Salt and pepper.
Peel and slice apples thin, Arrange
in buttered baking dish, sprinkle with
a small amount of sugar. Place saus-
ages•;on top and cover. Bake in oven
at 425 deg. until apples are dome, Un-
cover; turn sausages over and cook
'until they are nicely browned,

ides. roll in tea biscuit dough one-
half inch thick. Lay the sliced apples
on the dough and roll as for jelly
MU; tuck i>3 the Acta Vali pricy witk
fork. Cover and steam 45 minutes.
.Serve with ,stgar and cream rl,e a
sauce.
* * *
Apple Sherbet
Boil 1 quart of Canadian apples in
1 pint of water until soft. Rub
through a sieve; add juice of 1 or-
ange and 1 lemon, 1 cup sugar and
4 cups water. Beat well and freeze
in refrigerator that has been turned
to coldest point. " When it becomes
lake a slush, add the well -beaten
white of an egg and finish freezing.
* *
Take a Tip
1. 'You've already made up your
mind to keep a tin of apple juice in
the refrigerator -we hope.
2. If your family does not drink
milk regularly, or Eke milk puddings,
fool them by adding a cup or more
of milk to a frying slice of ham. It
increases its flavor and forms the
basi• of a delicious gravy.
3. Did you. ever have a crusty sue
gar coat on the inside of the pan in
which you have made a brown sugar
syrup? Well next time, use some con-
fectioner's sugar instead of all brown
sugar or even granulated sugar Oh,
and don't forget to turn the switch
from 'high' to 'simmer' as soon as it
begins to broil, • Stir only occasion-
ally.
QUESTION BOX
Mrs. J. H. asks: How can I choose,
a good pineapple?
• Answer: Good quality pineapple is
dark,, orange and should be heavy,
with "eyes' in the skin that are flat
and almost hollow. If there are soft
spots or signs of decay in the skin,
the fruit has probably been held too
long. The fruit itself should be ten-
der and juicy, not woody. Size will
vary with the` variety of the pineap-
ple, the Cuban being smaller than the
Mexican variety. It's rather a good
idea to add a little pineapple to, your
rhubarb again- and cooking 'on the
element turned `low'.

The Goverment policy in, regard
to relief, its decision last winter to
withdraw from, the field and leave the
responsibility where it primarily be -
longer and a discussion of the budget
were mixed today. One of the issues
raised by a "Quebec member concern-
ed an article in Life Magazine. Pre-
.mier Godbout of Quebec had voiced
a stirring protest in the evening pa-
pers regarding this article.
In regard to statements made by C.
C.F. members regarding the Dominion
cutting of relief, Norman McLarty,
Labour Minister, made a very effec-
tive answer when he pointed out that
it is not costing the provinces as
much for their share as it was when
the Dominion was making its contri-
bution. This, of course, has been the
result of the increased employment
caused by the war work. He also
pointed out that no complaints had
been made regarding the change by
the Provinces themselves.
The discussion on the budget was a
listless affair and it looked as though•
the debate would end tonight,„but it
will go on for some time, -possibly
ending Thursday. Mt...McKenzie ,(Lib-
eral) Neepawa, led off the budget de-
bate. Among other things he said
there has been more hysteria than
criticism in some of the remarks of
the opposition' speakers and the hys-
teria looks like four-fifths politic.
John R. MacNinol spent 40 minutes in
trying to persuade the Government
to take in Newfoundland as a tenth
province, Mr. Shaw, (S.C,) complain-
ed aboutthe burden of taxation and
suggested raising money the, S. C.
way. -.
Col. Ross . (Cons.) aroused a bit of
a fight when he launched into an ar-
gument for National Government. Mr.
Matthew (Lib.), Brandon, Dr. Gauthier
ILib.), Quebec ; Tommy Church
(Cons.), Toronto, and others spoke.
However, all of the criticism was
very mild and apart from the criticism
of the tax on railway tickets as it
affects the soldiers_ there was prac-
tically no constructive criticism offer-
ed.

During their recent meeting in Ham-
ilton, members of the Ontario -Quebec
Division of the Canadian Weekly

big plant in which Bofors anti-aircraft
guns are manufactured. At their din-
ner Hon. Angus L. Macdonald, Minis-
ter of National Defence for Naval Af-
fairs, was guest speaker. • In the up-
per photo Mr. Macdonald is shown
as• he addressed the newspapermen.

mons suspends its sittings to perm
a distinguished statesman from
broad to address it from the floor w
today. The occasion was the' visit-
Hon.
isitHon. Mr. Menzies, Prime Minister
Australia.
In the last war there were two su
similar instances,' the former Premi
of Great Britain, Mr, Balfour, and th
former Premier of France, Monsieur
Viviana. •
We are told that both of these hon-
orable gentlemen made eloquent and
inspiring addresses at that time.
Those who were in the House at that
time, claim that Mr. Menzies did not
speak with any of the palpitating en-
ergy of Mr. Viviana and his tone lack-
ed the cultured suavity and fine felic-
ity or Mr. Balfour, but evidently he
does not suffer in a comparison with.
these former statesmen.
A large, tall man, standing over six
feet, solid and stocky, but' well por-
portioned, neatly attired, fine featur-
ed, ruddy of complexion, his dark hair
just starting to get tinged with grey,
a rather pleasant voice with much less
of the pronounced accent of the aver-
age Australian, indicating in his tones
a bit of Scottish ancestry, without any
attempt at oratory at all. Mr. Men-
zies made a . splendid impression in
his very excellent speech.
Mr. Menzies sat' near the Speaker
when the preliminaries were .,over.
The Prime Minister moved and sus-
pended the sitting in order to give a
welcome to the • distinguished- guest.
The Prime Minister then conveyed to
Mr. Menzies a warm welcome to Can-
ada and to the House of Comin'ons.
This was seconded by Mr. Hanson
and followed by Mr. Coldwell and Mr.
Blackmore. Mr. Menzies spoke only
20 °minutes, calmly, deliberately, but
most effectively,. It was a hurried pie_
tune of his swing around the globe,
the various parts of the Empire he
had visited and the 'varied conditions
of the war encountered in each.
Of .Greets he made special- mention
but particularly did he speak of Bri-
tain banged, bombed, tens of thou-
sands killed and injured, devastated
areas that would discourage anyone,
and yet he say the toil -torn common
people everywhere . carrying on. For
their performance he voiced his ,.ov-
erpowering admiration,
So long as the Dominions stand,
Britain will not fall, he declared, amid
tremendous .applause. The Speaker
tendered his thanks to. Mr. Menzies,
after ;which evert member and every
Page boy shook hands with him. He
was then led from the Chamber by
Mr. Tom Reid and his bagpipes.
The budget took the rest of the day
and it was a quiet afternoon after
uch a ceremony. Time allowed .only
hree speeches. Mr. Maxime Ray-
ond complained that Canada was,
pending too much, while Captain
W
hite, of Peterboro West, complain -
d about heads of the militia and the
method of recruiting, Mr. Nicholson
poke from the C.C.F. group and his
main plea was to have the tax on
uiiding material removed as he con -
ended that buildings would be re-
uired gore than ever.

The speeches of Maxime Raymon,
ACP., given Wednesday in French,
aused the Minister of Justice to
escend upon him and his ideas in a
tatement given the House today. It
as a statement of repudiation, re-
ection and reproof. Picturing the
tatement of the Beauharnois ' Mem-
el- as foreign to Quebec •and its opin-
ons, Mr. Lapointe said statements
uch as had been made yere ealculat-
d to help the work of enemies of
uebec.
tater in the day the Beauharnois
ember claimed that he was not ad-
oeating neutrality, but thought our
ffort was greater than 'we would be
ble to carry. This opinion was not
hared by his fellow Quebec members.
his was the principle episode of the
ay outside of the run -of the mine of
e budget debate.
On the orders of the day the Min-
ter of Munitions' and 'Supply was
ked whether a committee would be
et up to deal with complaints about
0. 0.13 C., but his-aizewe'1' was no.

The House took a day 'off to deal
with private. bills instead of the bud-
get or as is usual, estimates for some
department" There were certain bills
which it was well known would be
opposed, therefore, arrangements
were made that any bill that was op-
posed would .go to the bottom of the
list in order to have the others pass-
ed on to the Private Bills Committee.
This arrangement should have
worked well, but it didn't. Same mem-
bers were determined to prevent dis-
cussion on a British Columbia Bill
and the show that•was put on in the
House today - was certainly no credit
to Parliament or any of its members.
Divorce bilis which have been dealt
with by the Senate usually go through
without opposition, but today it was
clearly evident that these bills would
be attacked in order to delay the dis-
cussion on the B. C. Bill, and it work-
ed, but with no credit to this House
of Commons.
These divorce bills have always
been a nuisance in this House, but is
part of confederation that people have
the right to appeal to Parliament for
a divorce. There is only one reason
for a divorce being granted and that
is infidel%ty.. Most of the Provinces
have their own divorce laws, but not
so with Quebec, and it is from that
province most of the bills 'come from.
They go to a committee of the Senate
who take the evidence and give their
verdict. If there Is a division of opin
ion on a case it is sent to the Private
Bills Committee of this House. After
a decision is given by these commit-
tees the House accepts their judg-
ment yith no debate on It in the Coin -
mons, Many are definitely opposed
to divorces but one cannot evade re-
sponsibility for dealing with these•
cases no matter what personal opin-
ion one may have. It is reported
that the Conservatives are to have a
conference this fall in regard to con
sider the good and welfare of their
party and to consider the, question of
leadership, 'and how in a permanent
way it should be established and to -
consider who should be chosen.
They have a difficult ,'situation on
their hand's and in the national inter-
est one must wish them' success in
their efforts to get completely re -or-
ganized,.
