Hill,, 'tenth of the 'town, liiach nig rt, however .the materials •Were myineriously shifted to the present site, so it was decided to abandont the first chosen spot and' build it wheare the materials were placed. That this was in accordance with God's wild was indicated beeaus•e eaten day there was an extra work - 'Pent who was never seen to, par- irtke of meals or draw wages. One day some workmen made a mis- take and cut a heavy beam too short for its intended purpose, but the next day it was 'found to have been mireculousIy lengthened. The builders then realized that the mysterious stranger was none oth- er than the Carpenter of Nazareth. - A hugh beam which is claimed to be that which was miraculously lengthened is still displayed in the Retro chair. 'However, it is more probable that this site was occupiel by a pagan temple and this has been ;onfirmed by , excavations. The Doomsday Book (1086) records that there was a church on the site t" that time. which was destroyed ^n.d the present structure Com- menced in 1093. It was made a eriory in 1150 and the present building was completed • within the next two hundred years. It is one of the largest and fin- est ecclesiastical buildings in Eng - 'and, being of Cathedral propor- tions and filled with remarkable carvings and memorials.

On one day we Watt by bus to Salisbytry which is . a very,,, plc• ., turesgiie town and having what is considered. the most graceful cath- edral in.Engiand, with the tallest spire of any in Britainr'i404 feet high. Unlike most other cathedrals which were built in different per- iods with different styles of arche tecture, Salisbury was completed in one era of one style. It cer- tainly has one of the most beauti- ful exteriors of them alL In Salisbury cathedral is an old clock dated 1386, one of the two oldest in England, the'other being at Wells. At Salisbury we bad an experi- ence of substitutes for meat, Hav- ing lunch at a famous old inn, one of our party ordered what she ex- pected was beef and was served whale meat. While it had the ap- pearance of beef it had such a strong fishy taste that no one of the party could eat it, although other diners seemed to eat it with enjoyment. There is another interesting old Abbey in the neighborhood, Beau- lieu Abbey, locally pronounced Bu -lee, but unfortunately we did not have time to visit it. One day we visited Lymington, a beautiful old town where we were given one of the best meads which we had in England. There we met some residents who had been very kind to Canadian airmen during the war. The bus route from Bournemouth to Lymington has some very beau- tiful views of the white cliffs and the sea. We left Bournemouth by coach for Bath, passing through many in- teresting towns such as Wilton, Heytesbury, Westbury, Trowbridge and j3radford on Avon, stopping for- lunch at Warminster. Bath is a beautiful old city wide- lyeltriown for its medicinal springs, Georgian buildings and Roman ruins. The Roman baths are some of the Trost complete Roman "re- mains in Britain and plainly show the high state of the civilization of that time. The Abbey at Bath is very beau- tiful and. has at times shared with Wells the distinction of being a cathedral. It is 120 feet long and 123 feet across the transepts and parts of it dates from Norman times, although there has always been a church on the site since 676. One of the- features of the Abbey is the West Front, the main gable being filled with a great window and flanked with Large turrets on the face of which are carved lad- ders with angels ascending and descending. Bath is worthy of a lengthy vis- it, but our stay in England was too short to permit and we left Bath for Bristol.

On his tour the General is visiting the Canadian cemeteries where so many of his former command have found their final resting place, On his arrival in Brussels the General laid a wreath at the unknown soldier's tomb and met representatives of the Belgian Army and government at a dinner held in his honour. He also visited the Canadian cemetery at Adagem and went on to Ypres where he paid his respects at the memorials at St. Julian, Pasch- endale and the Menin Gate. Following his trip through Belgium, General Crerar will visit the Canadian Ambassador to France in Paris and then visit the Normandy Area where his troops saw such bitter fighting in 1944. THE MIXING BOWL By ANNE ALLAN Hydro Home Economist Bello, Homemakers! Only those who have stored vegetables can realize the value of this home- grown supply of food and appreci- ate the resultant saving. Don't let vegetables go to waste after they are grown. The quality of many vegetables is dependent upon the time and stage at which they are harvested. •Then, the method of storing- determine toring-determine how long the garden produce will keep, Vegetables such as lettuce and caulifiower•have to be used as soon as they reach maturity. Green peas and beans, and corn are canned and frozen. Plants, like cabbage, turnips. etc., stand cold, .frosty weather while others — potatoes. melons, lima beans, etc., must be harvested be- fore frost nips the vines. Small quantities of root crops such as beets, carrots, parsnips, potatoes, rutabagas and salsify should be stored in a Toot cellar or dark basement in moist sand, either in piles or in boxes. Put in alternate layers of the roots and sand and the vegetables will not shrivel. When the vegetables are gathered, the tops should be cut off. If larger quantities are to be stored, they can be piled in bulk in a root cellar or in an outdoor pit. Storing in pits will vary according to the climate of the district as there is more danger of deep frosts in the northern parts of the prov- ince. Choose a well drained spot and make a shallow excavation, three or four feet wide and one foot deep. Put a good layer of straw in this trench and pile the vegetables in a conical heap. Cover with one or two feet of straw and when weather gets nippy cold, ad -d four to six inches of soil. Ventilation should be provided at this time by standing a narrow drain tile on end through the soil with a pieee of screen at the bottom to keep out rats. Stuff the open end with a piece of bagging to absorb heayy rainfall. Pull cabbages roots and all and stand them heads down in a wide trench. Some vegetables, e.g., pumpkins and squashes, need warm dry stor- age conditions, such as a wooden shelf in the basement. In the urban home, a vegetable room in the basement is the most convenient storage place.

Mr.: Faker irl Irhairma,n of. the Standing Committee ou liststitu- tional Advertising of the Canadian Life Insurance Officers Association which was host: to the Weekly I3di- tors at lunciteoi.. After describing some of the problems of the business in. Can- ada, ,the speaker saidi that the cry of "monopoly" was sometimes rais- ed against the life insurance com- panies. Said Mr Parker: "The charge of 'monopoly' is ridiculous because it is without foundation. If the charge were true you would • find that the number of companies op- erating in Canada was harply re- duced from what it is today. "Canadian companies are not afraid of competition. In fact, we welcome competition. How else would we be able to enjoy such an enviable position throughout the world if it were not for the com- petitive spirit that dominates the entire life insurance business here in Canada? "Canadian life insurance com- panies are so highly thought of that they successfully operate in 68 different countries besides Can- ada. Indeed, they do nearly 40 per cent of their business outside Can- ada. "While Canadian life insurance companies are pushing their ways into the life insurance markets of the world, - notwithstanding the competition of strong local com- panies most places they go, cone - Plum Chutney (Requested by Mrs. T.
