For ex- arnple, when!,making • a meringue top- ping for a pie or folding in an angel ea,ke mixture, egg whites- should be, beaten only until they " ore a. soft • •foam. The air bubbles are small and the beaten . whites are glossy and moist but forms soft rounded peaks. Fairly stiff beaten eggs are used in making On -delete, souffles, cake frost- ings. apd meringues. In this case the whole mass! is glossy yet stiff enough to slip from the bowl intact. The 'peaks are pointed and you should be able to cut clearly through the whites. If, however, you heat egg whites any stiffer ,than this, they will be dry, and look dull. Small flakes Cor lumps •appear which will spoil .the texture of the mixture to which the egg white is added: .Severalthings affect We way an egg White acts .when you' beat"'it- One is. that eggs at room temperature will beat more rapidly than those taken directly from the refrigerator. - An- other, is•that the thicker the egg white the Monger it takes to beat it, but the foam (lues ' stand Up .better. It is amazing how- much egg white is left in the shell, so scrape each shell out 'after you have carefully separated the yolks and whites. • Grandmother has always beaten egg whites 'with a quick round elicit of 'the forJt.'on• a cold plate -using a favorite fork, but any' fork does the e. job: A' good rotary beater: is a good whip to use, in a shallow cold bowl, but they are as scarce as the elec- trie•-beater, which does the' job eas- 'fly 'for you.

Good idea to keep cords and end pieces in •shape so they won't need repairing. Here are ,.;some tips: 1. ,Never remove a plug froue. an outlet by pulling • or jerking,' This strains the copper strands and may cause a short circuit.. Hold the plug firmly and "gently dislodge it from the outlet. • 2. Care should be taken that furni- ture is never moved on to cords. The protective covering of the cord •may be ripped and a sdary shock in store for whoever • touches the exposed wires: • 3. Cords should never- be placed• where they are apt to be tripped over. 4. Tacks should not be used .to hold down cord. The metal tack may break through the insulation and cause a short circuit. . 5. Cords that are ,frayed or brok- en, or eords with loose plugs should be replaced immediately. 4" i '` ..�...— Qoi 4Tai #d ? AMMO: YOUR HOME HOTEL WAVER -EY SPADINNA AVE. d COLLEGE -ST.

Do you know that windqw cleaning in go' ernment build- ings in Ottawa during 1943 cost $3.§,- 223.15. In 1938 It cost $16,160.05, which gives one some conception of the many new temporary buildings w'"ich have been necessary to' the war tconomy. * * Enquiries from a 'number of house- wives: Why do some ration coupons have expiry dates, others not. The Consumer Branch. of the Prices Board- explains oardexplains that sugar, tea, 'coffee and preserve coupons have not a set ex- piry date becaused they offer 'little storage problem, earn be kept well. Butter coupons do expire because it is perishable and present storage and distribution problems. "' If there were 'no expiry dates for this, they explain, people could save up cupons for sev- eral months and buy large quantifies al lat once. This would cause• con- siderable complications and supplies' would not be able to foresee demands, which the presentation of saved up coupons weeeld •bring. • Perishable foods must move out' on a steady. basis in relation to production if proper distribution is to be maintain- ed. gives -thein:: 1 1/3 ouaooes butter in- stead of 1 each day, and 14ie cheeseiii., rationis cut from half an ounce to three-eighths. • But Jain_ and lard are being iliCreased for them to keep the 'Calories stabler The chanes in food contenti slight as it appears, will en- rich. 30,000 parcels a week for Cant, Lnonwealth prisoners in the Far Beat and 80,000 parcels a week for Allied prisoners, of war in Europe.

Under Permit from• the Agricultural Food Board, mily distributors and 'manu- facturers may buy from additiona'1 milk Sproducers. • But no permits are granted without sharp consideration. .Purpose of. the stabilization order° is to prevent diversion of milk from urgently needed manufactured dairy products. After all, most people agree that .milk should be distribut- ed fairly, thus some form of control is needed., From October' 1st to ear- ly in February, the board issued 1,500 in -average a ;each permit bears oti the name of "four tie six produdergs,' six• to one thousand pre-. du.cers were allowed to 'change their sales outlet since October 1st. * * * In a speech, Navy Minister Angus Macdonald' said that a hundred •mil lion tons of food,. fuel ••and war sup- plies have been transported across the.

These . men are . the .salt of the earth, not only of the sea. * * * All provinces reported a higher in- conle when the cash income of Cana- dian `farmers reached .a new high lev- el in the year fust gone by. The esti-, mated returns from the sale of farm products reached $1,397,000,000, an increase of $282 million over 1942. Owing to lack of accommodation,, when - a serving officer or soldier wants his family in Canada to move to Newfoundland he must now sub- mit an application to N.D.H.Q., who in turn forward it to the Department of Exeternal Affairs •for consideration. Plenty of 'our men are now serving in "Newfie" as they call it. • Highlights of the annual report of the ,Governor 'of the Bank of Canada: While the Dominion Government's do- mestic debt has quadrupled since the war, net interest charges increased only 52 per cent., and in relation to national income, burden of debt charges • are now less than those of twenty years ago. The report stress= es the magnitude of adjustments nec- essary to•niaintain high employment after the . war, which will take bold planning by labour, farm and husi- ness organizations as Well. as govern- ment. Points out in 1939 about 4,000,- 006 Canadians we're gainfully occu- pied and at least 300,000 available for work Were not employed. By the end of 1943 gainfully occupied rose to about 5,100,000 but about 1,909,000 of these in the armed forces, war work or producing food required for special wartime exports. N'iimber 'available to- meet civilian needs fell to about 3,200,0(10, but at same _time the aver- age Standard of jiving had• risen con- siderably, higher than ever before. He concludes 'that after the war at least 4,700,000 workers will' be avail- able for employment in civilian jobs, .or at least 1,500,000 more than with:. her 'employed in that sector of the economy at present time, An incentive for civilians to "give" tr) the Red Cross current 'campaign I'or funds. is knowledge of the fact that men of our Arniy, Navy and Air Force.. will now contribute directly to more nutritious parcels for Canadian 'Prisoners of war.

Recently 200 English wives of Cana- dian soldiers and 83 babies born of the marriages, reached this country, part 'of the 16.000 brides Canucks have taken in the Ulxited Kingdom. ,Representatives, of the- Canadian Red Cross met them at point of .debarka- tion, accompanied them to Montreal and Toronto, giving them the low- down , on our money, rationing,' cus- toms and geography. * * * In the proposal of the United States to buy 175 million bushels 'of wheat from Canada in 1944, the plan is'that the buyers will move 40 million bush- els • direct • from, western country points in U.S. ,railway cars; 30 mil- lion via ship from 'Vancouver, and other Pacific prirts, 'and '105 `Million ,,by lake 'ship curing the' current sea- son of navigation. *' * Reduction of the butter' ration°"by eight ounces siarting this 'month, un- til Further -notice, his been brought about by decreased production in,.
