These shares will bear 4 per cent interest as soon as the necessary reserves are built up. 812 Fed At Fowl Supper A crowd exceeding the expecta- tions of the most enthusiastic members of the church jammed the Londiesboro Community Hall on Tuesday night for the fowl supper, which was sponsored by the Lon- desboro United Church, in connec- tion with their golden jubilee cele- bration. The admission tickets went on sale about 5'p.m., and it was almost magic to watch them disappear. When the final tabula- tion was made, 812 .admission tick- ets had been sold. Serving of meals started almost on schedule at 5.30 p.m., in the hall basement. From then until the Last person was fed, about 10 'p.m., the hall fairly bulged with activity. The Londesboro ladies lived up to their reputation and everyone was well fed, and""we venture to say, many were overfed, as. they help them- selves to the fine food from the heavily laden tables. Because of the huge crowd the entertainment which followed the supper was transferred from the hall to the auditorium of the United Church, where more seating capacity was available. The event brought to a close the celebration of the golden jubilee of the church, a celebration that will live long in the memories of those who are closely associat- ed with .the work of the United Church at Londesboro. — Blyth Standard.

We probably donot consider our jobs, ate .glamorous .ate th'e var ied careers pursued by some of our sisters, but, like them, we must give our best efforts if we wish to be successful. Although we try 'to keep food bilis within ollr allowance, most of us are too busy to keep a regular budget and aceotint of expenditure. Perhaps this is. "mudd'ling through” but experience is a great teacher and we tend to rely more Upon it than facts andi figures. The garbage can, is always an indication of your economy. Check your food .supplies constantly and never, never, throw out anything because of neglect. Keep your garbage tin free of wasted food and you will have more money in your purse. With fats more expensive than ever and 'a supply to be collected daily, we review "Care of Fats." 1. Be .etre to measure meat dripping for gravy making — do not guess and waste it. 2. Render meat and fowl trim- mings• by putting through the grinder and heat in double boiler or stow oven. Strain and store in refrigerator. 3. Watch temperatures in oven, skillet and broiler to see that you do not scorch dripping. 4. Chill soup stock and stews so that the fat floats to the top and forms a firm layer which can be easily lifted off. 5. Keep home -prepared fats cov- ered in the refrigerator. Strain through cheesecloth before sj;oring to remove any sediment. Hot Water Gingerbread 2 cups less 2 tablespoons sift- ed flour 1 teaspoon baking soda % teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon ginger 1 teaspoon Cinnamon la teaspoon cloves 1/3 cup dripping 1/3 cup granulated sugar 1 egg 2/3 .cup light molasses 2/3 cup hot water (simmering temperature) Sift flour, then measure, add bak- ing soda, salt and spices and sift together on to piece of waxed paper. Cream shortening until fluffy, gradually add sugar, mixing until creamy. Beat egg until light and add to creamed shortening and sugar mixture and beat together well. Combine molasses and hot wa ter. Add dry ingredients to creamed mixture alternately with molasses and hot water, starting and ending with dry ingredients . Fold in gent- iy after each addition. • Turn batter into a greased and floured 8 x 8 x 2 -inch cake tin and bake at 350 degrees in oven for 35 or 40 minutes. Serve warm with Banana Sauce. Mexican Corn Chowder • 6 slices bacon, chopped 2 cups (1 can) corn % cup chopped onion 1/2 cup chopped green pepper 1 cup small potato cubes 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/s teaspoon pepper 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 1 teaspoon sugar 1 cup thick tomatoes 1 cup canned consomme 4% cups rich milk - 2 tablespoons flour 2 tablespoons dripping. ,Cook bacon for about 2 minutes. Add onion and green pepper and cook 2 •,minutes. Add corn and potatoes- along with the season, ings, tomatoes and. stock. Cook for 30 minutes covered. Blend the Milk and flour. Add to the hot mixture, bring to boil, and cook for five minutes. Add butter and serve hot with crackers. Serves six. • Oxtail Soup 1 large oxtail 3 tablespoons butter 11/2 quarts boiling water 2 tablespoons' barley 1 teaspoon salt 1 onion, finely diced 1 carrot, finely diced 1 tablespoon chopped parsley 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce. Have the oxtail cut into sections. Wipe off and roll in flour. Melt butter, add the oxtail and brown well. Add the water and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer slowly on element turned to low. At the end of an hour add the barley and• salt. Cook for one-half hour and add the diced onion, carrot and parsley. Add Worcestershire sauce and cook one-half hour longer. Some people serve this strained. To me straining detracts from the home-made flavor -so serve it with all the "good" in it. Serves 4 to 6. Fried Green Tomatoes Wipe tomatoes, do not peel. Cut in one-third inch slices. Sprinkle with salt. Allow to stalid one hour. Dip slices in seasoned flour and saute in hot fat until tender (about eight minutes•). Serve on platter around meat. Stuffed Cucumbers 6 large cucumbers 2/3 cup minced cooked meat 2/3 •cup boiled rice 1 tabieepoon minted parsley 1 tablespoons minced onion 1 tablespoon minced Celery 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper 1 egg 1 cup totnatb juice.

To shorten time of cooking— soak rice in cold water for 2 hours. 2. Make drop cakes instead of large square cake to save time and electricity. 3. Keep a check on the foodstuffs in the refrigerator and use left- overs and perishables in order that refrigerator does not have to operate overtime to keep them, 4. Honey in grapefruit juice is a good substitute sauce for use instead of cream. Anne Allan invites you to write to her c/o The Huron Expositor.

Of course we always want to keep our tried-and-true friends. But to make new ones is to discover an important secret of a richer, more in- teresting life. Like travel, new faces and new personalities help lift us out of our ruts. So, instead of waiting for new friends to drift into our lives, it is a good plan to seek them and cultivate them. Where will you find them ? Right in your own town — perhaps in your neighbor- hood, church, club or place of work. Already you have a "nodding acquaintance" with some people who may later be included in your circle of intimate companions. Choose from all types—not just those whose occupations and interests are similar to yours. Favour those who are - mentally stimulating. Of course, to make new friends means that you must usually make the first move. But most people appreciate being singled out and quickly respond to friendly overtures. And the little effort you make will pay divi- dends in happier, more suc- cessful living. Lute a good friend, the mod- ern life insurance agent is always ready to offer helpful advice when needed. And as a result of his services, mil- lions of Canadians enjoy peace of mind /hrough own- ing life insurance. _ _.. y, _ ................139 pneumonia• and wits moved• to Vl torte Hospital, London{:lag Fri- day'.

Hon. Louis St. Laurent. The "sig- nificance of the address was that it portrayed the real spirit of Mr. St. Laurent's leadership of both the Liberal party and the: country, His' aim of unity, security; and free- dom for the people of Canada will evoke a nation-wide appeal, Se- curity he outlined• in twq aspects: National security for Canada and social security' of Canadian indi- viduals and families. Provincial Rights Observers were quick to note Mr. St. Laurent's interpretation of un- ity. To him and to any govern- ment lead by him it does not mean "centralization." Mr. St. Laurent was definite in re -iterating the tra- ditional Liberal policy ,of provin- cial rights. He clearly affirmed Liberal policy to be one where all the provinces, small as well as large, to be in a position to exer- cise their rights and to nerve their people. The By -Elections Discussion and argument con- tinues on the import of the two federal by-elections held last week, The Progressive Conservative par- ty, which polled 3600 votes in the general election of 1945 in Algoma East, did not contest the by-elec- tion. It is believed that the elec- tion of the Minister of External Affairs should be expedited at this crucial point in our external relay tions. This made the C.C.F. Party second in the contest but did not save its candidate from losing his ceposit by a wide margin. The election of the Liberal/can- didate in. .Rosthern by an over- whelming majority surprised most observers here, The Large decline in the C.C.F. vote in this' Saskatch- ewan constituency is accepted by them as definite evidence that the C.C.F. is on the way out in the province that was considered its stronghold. The fact that the Lib- eral candidate was new to the political field. and the C.C.F. candi- date was a well known and seas- oned campaigner made the large Liberal majority more impressive. It was significant that the C.C.F. candidate did not campaign on the policy of the C.C.F. Party. On ev- ery possible occasion he declared that this wac not an issue and that the record of the socialist provin- cial government was not a factor. rain )aesrr toe'bmns 'ai-yp91;:11; reilnttalvLaeeegltis ml?Darts eatenujditig:'` she i!nitel rose frons $75 8 tn_lign� in th belt, of 1047 to. 02.1 it7}tit> i acme period thisy'+ear, , ,real plc fart was made towardr,elositl .;th ti sr.

IN COIR WAR TQ WIN THE PEACE REASON FOR UEFB By centralizing buying and transportation, in- cluding delivery at des- tination, substantial savings can be effected. The scattered efforts of many can be channelled into an efficient single stream of relief, without a loss of individuality as to persons, groups or organizations. MORE AID PER DOLLAR For example: the cost of placing a ready packaged 10 lb. parcel in the hands of a recipient in Britain, exclusive of content pur- chase price, is approxi- mately $2.50 at present, whereas through UEFB concessions the compar- able cost would be 57c to 79c. This economy does not include the very substantial saving which bulk purchasing effects. The gallant people of Britain are suffering today because they are determined to win the cold war. They are the only nation in Europe fighting with body and mindp to vanquish the spectre that haunts the Old World. Their health is being weak- ened, their efficiency impaired, by the tremendous restrictions they have imposed upon them- selves. They stand in danger of being defeated by undernour- ishment. Why? Because Britain imports four-fifths less goods than before the war, yet exports more than half as much again as in -1939. Says the British Ministry of Food: .. we are living on marginal nutritional standards, and there is cause for anxiety lest this should be having adverse effects on physique and. health ... Everything you can send us is wanted and urgently wanted." If the British people go under, YOU and all of us, will feel the effects. We need a strong Britain to help fight the cold war. Give generously to UEFB—TODAY. UEFB offers the best means of making your aid to Britain effective now. UEFB is a voluntary organiza- tion set up to collect, forward and distribute aid to the under- nourished people of Britain. UEFB purchases supplies in bulk. The British Government sup- plies free transportation. The UEFB British Advisoryr'Council assures that your dollars will buy what is most needed for those who need it the most. Although UEFB cannot at present handle used clothing, arrangements are being made to do so early next year. C/VE DRIMIN STRENGTNI Send your cash donation to your Provincial headquarters.
