Ho-Hllm! Wednesday again! Two
more days of school; time for School

That's what I said, no news! What

War Savings Stamps were very,
very low this week and unless a
definite change is shown, the chart
will be useless. What do you think,

very embarrassing position. Howev-
er, his school bag came in very handy
and he was seen walking nonchalant-
ly down the street until he reached
the dorner, •and then—wow! some
dust!
Last week I mentioned the fact that
a certain. fifth former got the, whole
classes' sparesin- with a teacher.
Th.'s week, however, he told one of
the students that it was O.K. for
them 'to keep their spares to them-
selves. Unfortunately, he was con-
tradicted and the class is back with
the teacher again. Will he. never

The Home Economists in the CDA,
sumer Section, (if the Department of,
Agriculture at Ottawa, realize front
letters received it the d.epartment,.
that many kitchen tragedies are the
result of misinterpretation or misu,n
derstanding of •directions rather than:
fatuity •recipes.
. The inexperienced housekeeper is
often ' puzzled by baking directions
"which say "about 40 minutes in a
moderate oven," or, "approximately
thalf-an-hour," and wonder why bak-
ing and roasting times can't be given
definitely. The reason for this is
that in the case 'of cakes, puddings,
etc., the size and shape: of . the uten-
sil used for baking will agent, to
some extent, the time required for
baking. For example, a Cake baked
in a large pan with the batter 'one
inch deep will bake more quickly than
the same amount of the same mixture
baked in a smaller pan where the 'bat-
ter is perhaps two inches deep; if the
batter is baked as individual cup
cakes the time required for baking
will be copsiderably „shortened. Sim-
ilarly, muffins baked in the large siz-
ed muffin tins will take a few min-
utes longer than if baked in smaller
tins. In the case of meat ' or fish the
shape and thickness of the -piece will
affect the time of cooking.
In some recipes oven temperature
is indicated by the words slow, mod-
erate or hot. These terms can be
translated into degrees Fahrenheit as
follows; and by the way, a reliable
oven thermometer represents a small
investment that pays big dividends in
better baking results:
Very slow oven 200-250
250-300'
300.325
325-375 degrees
375-400 degrees
400-450 degrees

. Shortening
Shortening is' a general, term that
includes any fat used in balling, so
called because it makes the product
"short" or tender. Butter, lard or
vegetable fats are all "shortenings"
and any of these may be used where
shortening is specified -in 'a recipe.
Oven Poaching
Dishes such as custards and souf-
fles, in which eggs are a principal in-
gredient are oven -poached in order
that an evenly low temperature may
be maintained. This simply means
setting the dish to be baked in a
larger pan, containing hot water, be-
fore placing it in the oven.
Broil and Grill
These ' are synonymous terms which
indicate, cooking under or overdirect,
intense heat. .The food is placed on
a rack over a pan so that any fat
which is extracted may escape. Chops
or steaks may be pan-broiled ,or gril-
led. To do this a heavy frying pan
is heated, the meatput in, turned
frequently during cocking and fat is
poured, off as it accumulates.
Blanch
When applied to fruits on nuts this
process is used tofacilitate the re-
moval of the skin. Boiling water is
poured on the food to be blanched
and• is' left, not over heat, from 1 to 3.
minutes, then poured off. The food is,
rinsed under cold water when the
skins may be easily removed. When
the term is applied to vegetables, us-
ually in connection with canning or
pickling, the purpose of blanohings is
to reduce the strong flavor or bulk, or
to set•th,e dolor by plunging the food
into boiling water and letting it re-
main from' 3-5 minutes.
Marinate
The purpose of 'marinating is to
season foods as salads, by adding a
small amount of a mixture of oil and
vinegar (French dressing), and allow-
ing the food to stand for a time be,
fore further preparation. Meat and
fish are sometimes marinated before
broiling for seasoning, ; tenderizing
and to prevent drying out during cook-
ing.

Turn the switch off as soon as the

that thf,' water is coming to a boil,

Keep electric light bulbs and shades
