STREET ACCIDENT Four cars and a bread truck were involved in a main% street motor acci- dent last Friday afternoon just short- ly after one o'clock. Fortunatdly, no one was injured, but property danege to the five 'chicles was estimated nt around $$1,600.00. The accident occurred 'when a car, driven by William Alton, of Winghnm, crashed into another car driven by Harvey Honking of Blyth, The Iiun- king car was pulling from the curb on the west side of main street going south. The Alton car, travelling in the same direction, crashed into the Hun - king car, then careened off to the left to bit a parked car, owned by Nasif Elzenni, of 'Toronto. The Alton car continued nn, driving heavily against a parked bread truck, finally snack- ing dead centre into the side of an- other parked car owned by Douglas Brown, of Blyth, Neither Mr, Alton, or his wife, who wits with him, were injured, although somewhat shaken up by the experi- ence. The couple were on ttheir. Way to visit wtih Mr. and Mrs, Earl Blake of the Base Line when the accident oc- curred. Mr, and Mrs. Blake carne itup and took them to their home at Wing - ham, while their car was towed home, Fortunately no one was in or near the three parked vehicles when the accident occurred. The accident oc- curred just in front of. the Elliott In- surance Agency, and the two parked cars and truck were, lined up in front of Reid's Pool Room. Second Consecutive Airport Contract For. Local Bakery Voddcn's Bakery, Blyth, has been awarded the , bread contract for the Clinton Radar and Communication School for the second• consecutive time, Mr. Vodden has had the contract for the past three months„ and- will im- mediately commence on the new three months' contract which runs for Ap- ril, May and June, This marks the fifth time that our local bakery has been awarded this contract, The demands for bread at the air- port are continuously increasing and the new contract calls for a 'consid- erably larger quantity .than any . pre- vious contract. THEY JUST HAPPEN! Editors are usually noted for their rosy complexion -particularly so fol- lowing the day of weekly publication, But this healthy glow, is. not always due to an • over -abundance of good healthy blood, Sometimes that blood is drawn from the tips of the toes 10 glow warmly and rosily in the cheeks when a typographical error has been brought •to his attention. Sometimes these errors are har►nless tranfers of letters made nt the keyboard of a lino - type. Fate has the habit of causing then to happen in the most ridiculous places and combinations: Sometimes it is a word left out. A typical example of this latter appeared two weeks ago in The Standard when the Issue re- ported in the' personal column that "Mr, Alex, Manning attended the' On- tario Rdtall Lumber Dealers Associa- tion Annual Convention held at the Royal York Hotel, Toronto," The 't- em went on to say: "He also enjoyed a few nt the annual Sportsman's Show." Of course It should have read: "He al- so enjoyed a few "hours" at the annual Sportsman's Show. Referring further' to these unhappy moments in' an editor's life, last week's issue of the Goderich Signal -Star had the following item: "Nobody enjoys a typographical er- ror more than an• editor, -provided it happens to somebody 'else, Discussing these harmless little mistakes, that are often not so harmless, editor Hugh Templin of Fergus,. tells ' the old one. about the southern former who put nn ad in his local paper, worded thus: "WENCH FOR SALE -Phone 302 and ask for my housekeeper, Mrs. Arm- strong, Tl)os, J. Smith." The next week, following a hot session with the ;editor, appeared' 'the correction •thus: "CORRECTION: I have a winch for 'Sale, not a wench'. Please do not,cnll Mrs, Armstrong about it. She is just my housekeeper who loves with .me, Thos, J, .Stnith," The third week, the following appeared: , "IMPORTANT NOTICE -It is ell a .mistake; I haven't anything for sale, And I haven't a housekeeper either, She has moved a- way, Thos, J. Stnith, "Editor Templin recalls one In his own pape4, that said: ,The , coffin was carried from the church by six • old fiends," but. claims it was caught, and the fiends turned into friends, before too many copies' had been run, A typ- ical mistake recently was 'Miss Brown sang feelingly: ,'0 Rest in the Lar'd,' That. recalls the one that came out in the .Wiarton Echo a few years ago. Tho Iinotype operator set up the lines 'The meeting ended • with the singing of 'Blest be ,the Clieese That Binds.' The Proofreader didn't catch it, but,the edi- tor did -from the ladies whose meeting was • being reported," BLYTH, ONTARIO, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 1, 1953 111/1111 THINGS THAT MATTER BY REV, C. J, $C0'i'r, B.A., MD. There is mbrc confused thinking about man's religious life than about anything else with which the human mind deals, The answer is doubltlkss found in the fact that the qualities of the spiritual life are difficult to define or measure, The student of chemistry can use his test tube to prove his facts; the mathematician can double check his answers and the student of engineering has learned how to cope with the laws of gravity. • However, when we come to man's 'religious life we find our- selves in a very different kind of circumstance. Mali has not been able to design, a slide rule to measure a mother's love for her child; the basis 'of friendship, of sincerity, or even the quality of one's spiritual life. In attempting to do this many err by using their own standard, Too often this standard is distorted by our blindness to truth by the pettiness of our outlook on life, This is what causes many to have a blurred vision as far as religion is concerned, And it will always be blurred until in the place of our own standard we put the standards given to us by Christ in the Sertnon on the Mount (Read Matthew 5, 0, 7), Read these chapters carefully and prayerfully, begin today to make a new evaluation of the true values of life, WEDDINGS -0-0- , IIItINK - IIEYINK At the Clinton Christian Reform Church, on Friday, March 27th, 1053, Rev.

Claude Sandlin, of Hartford, Ont, Rev. Sand - lin is an excellent, preacher and a Christian gentleman, and has a real burden for those who are yet sinners for whom Christ died. The messages that he •brought to the congregation each evening were definitely Christ - centered, and narked by the Word of God. Each message was ' delivered from a heart of love, and people were made to realize anew the great price that Jesus paid to redeem mankind from sin, and that man must repent and turn from sin to be accepted: of God and have peace and joy in his soul. A number of souls bowed at an altar of prayer for spiritual help and all who attended from night tit night expressed appreciation for the gospel preaching that went forth. Special singing was provided by the local congregation each night, in addition to numbers by Mrs. Sandlin, wife of the evangelist, and an offertory number by the orchestra each evening. We were happy to have sev- eral carloads from the Grand Bend Church of God with us twice, with their pastors Rev, Edwin Wattatn, and the special singing they did, We would like to take this oppor- tunity of ,expressing our appreciation for the many visitors and friends who attended our services, and the many encouraging comment's expressed, BIRTHDAY PARTY ENJOYED BY FAMILY" CONNECTION Mr, and Mrs, John Manning enter- tained at a .birthday party on• Satur- day when they had as their guests, Mr. and Mrs. Alex, Manning, of Blyth, Mr, and Mrs, Bert Rowden, of Holmes- ville, and Mr, and Mrs, Edward Wise, of Clinton, The day had special sig- nificance for the two fathers-in-law, Mr. Manning and Mr. Rowden, as both gentleman mark their birthday on March 28th.

OBITUARY MRS, ARTHUR KERSLAKE Mrs, Arthur Kerslake, 61, died,at South Huron Hospital, Exeter, on Sn- day after an illness of nearly three months. She was the former Elsie Lyon, se- cond daughter of the late Mr, and Mrs. Harrison Lyon, of Londcsboro, She was born In Hullett Township and came to Usborne Township following her marriage to Mr. Kerslake thirty- six years ago, Mrs, Kerslake was a member of Ja- mes Street United Church, Exeter, and was active in the Elirnville Insitute. Surviving besides her husband are three sons, Harold and Elwyn, of Us - borne Township, and Robert at home; five daughters, (Dorothy) Mrs, Chester Cornish, (Phyllis) Mrs. Donald Case, (Ilene) Mrs, Archie Webber, all of Ex- eter, (Hayseli Mrs, Morley Crockford, Toronto, and Patsy, at home; two bro- thers, Stanley and Joseph Lyon, Hal- lett; five sisters, Mrs. Bert Lobb, Holmesvllle, Mrs. Eldred Holmes, Dres- den, Mrs. Earl Gaunt, Mrs, Emerson Hesk and Mrs, Harry Durnin, all of Londcsboro; and four grandchildren.

Eight years after World. War II the world is still -rest- less; there is no peace, nor in the fore- seeable future can we hope to 'find the peace which Christ hoped two thousand years ago would permeate the hearts of His people, The Cross which Christ found heavy has not lightened with the years, . Jesus faced the Cross with a faith that made the symbol of defeat a sym- bol of triumph, This is the faith that challenged a civilization in disintegra- tion to build up a newer and finer civ- ilization, and to make that faith dom- inant. Emerging from the new day which dawned with the Resurection of our Lord, men, through faith, became aware of. forces working towards the creation of a better world, a deeper instinct to spiritual needs and'n newer conception of their relationship to God and to their fellow men, This Is the faith which challenges the world today: "The faith that we can do away with war and poverty and dis- ease' must take possession of us before we can move into a world set free from these ancient scourges," says an emin- ent divine, "Quite unlike our feverish fears and restless anxieties and short- sighted plans is the calm expectation, the confident hope, the courageous ad- venture, inspired by such a Christian faith." It is evident in a rapidly changing world that racial hatreds, Industrial strifes, international wars, religious controversies, cannot go on much fur- ther. Nor' can we much longer sur- vive conditions brought about by fear and greed. We must either rise 'above them or be submerged. •Wherein has man failed over the two thousand years since the light of the Resurrection mem flooded the world? We know , , , his eyes have strayed from the light. Instead of having the shadows fall behind him, he has turned and mingled with the shad- ows, -and through the powers of dark- ness the world is beconming a perilous place; and all because man has not kept faith. The remedy is so simple -just Intel- ligence and.fidellty to the teachings of Jesus. Nothing stands In the way ex- cept the obstacles we have either put in the way 'or permitted to remain there , , , Few of us appreciate the pos- sible splendor of the human life at its best, and few of us seem to believe that the best is within the reach of the or- dinary, At this Eastertide, let us rededicate ourselves to the cause of Christ; let ns turn again towards the light that will lend the world from the dangerous path it la travelling; that a long and lasting peace may 'again return to the world, BIRTHS McEWING-At Scott Memorial Hos- pital, Seaforth, on Wednesday, Morels 18th, 1953, so Mr, and Mrs, John M' -- Ewing, R.R. 1, Blyth, a daughter.

Lions Hold Regular Meeting In the absence of the President, Lion Gordon Augustine, due to illness, the regular meeting of the Lions Club was called to order by the first vice-presi- dent, Lfon Cecil Wheeler, Entertain- ment was provided by Harvey Minns and Jimmie Pierce. The ladies of Trinity Guild catered and proved them- selves real. hostesses. The speaker of the evening was Rev. M. Thomas of the Walton United Church, Mr. Thomas gave a very thought-provoking address on "kind- ness," The appreciation of the club was expressed to him by Lion Fred Howson, WANTS PICTURES OF ANY STANDING LOG HOUSES A. S. Garrett, Box 162, Lucas, On- tario, has written asking for informa- tion which will lead him to the loca- tion of any log houses that might be still standing in this district. . Mr, Garrett would like to procure pictures of some of these old landmarks before they have entirely disappeared. Any- one with information can contact him at the above-mentioned address. $283.00 Already In For Crippled Children's Fund The campaign for funds for the Crip- pled Children of Ontario is now in full swing," and local chairman, J. G. Mc- Dougall reported 'to The Standard on Tuesday night that contributions were coming in well, with n total at that time of $283,00, Mr. McDougall was quite optimistic that previous records for this locality would be • broken, and issued an appeal for the full co-operation of every resi- dent of this 'community on behalf of this very important fund. • The campaign locally, as It is in so many centres, is being sponsored .by the Lions Club. You are asked to leave your contri- bution at the bank, or use the mailed envelope which was sent to you by tine committee. Block Of Wood From Tree Over 200 Years old The Standard has had in the window for the past couple of weeks a block of wood 71"x12"x4", which Mr. 13111 Manning •of Manning & Sons brought to the office for display. The block is from a Douglas fur, grown on Vancouver Island,'Bill count- ed the yearly growth rings shown on the block, which would only be a por- tion of the complete growth of the tree, The rings showed 147 years of. growth. From this a conservative estimate of the life of the tree would"be well over 200 years,. It proves that a few mom' ents with a saw can destroy many, many years of nature's work. It also drives home the fact that nobody should wantonly de - stray a tree. Business People Have Flu Flu and. colds have interrupted many work schedules this winter. Latest to be affected are. John T. Stewart of Stewart's Grocery who has been away from the store since last Friday, and also Mr, Clarence Urquhart, of the Superior Food Marked, who has been ill this week. Mr. Gordon Augustine has been confined to his bed, . and home, for the better Tart of twd weeks, L � Good Friday A Holiday Good Friday (April 3rd) is a Public Holiday -the first one singe the new year, TIIEFMN F1?Off Scalloped Limas and Macaroni, a Sturdy Dlsh jok4121issell Rust has long been one of the greatest bugbears of the wheat grower, and it seems as if just us soon as one variety of the pest Is checked, another is bound to turn up. A good example is the recent advent of race 15B of item rust, The wheat breeder is constantly striving to keep ahead of the rust threat by incorporat- Ing into our present standard varieties, the resistance of varie- ties introduced from all over the world. Some of these wheats have good resistance to our pre- sent rusts, but undoubtedly new races will arise to attack many of them. Hence a long range view trust be taken by the plant breed- er to obtain material to satisfy, not only present needs, but also future needs. f! 1 M Since it is becoming increasing- ly difficult to find new resistant wheats for breeding, other sources should be explored to supplement the supply of resistance, says R. C. McGinnis, Laboratory of Cereal Breeding, Winnipeg. It is known that certain wild grasses related to wheat—various species of Ag- ropyron, Aegilops and ifaynaldia -- have excellent resistance. tihould a transfer 'of this resist- ance to common wheat prove possible, then a new reservoir of breeding material would be avail- able. Some of these grasses do not cross readily with *heat, or when they do cross, produce sterile hybrids, e When this happens, a different method of breeding must be used. First, two grasses are crossed and then the reaultity hybrid is treaj- r• r- ed with a chemical siich as col- chicine. Colchicine can cause the chromosome number to double in the plant cells, and the hybrid thereby- becomes fertile and atable. This is called "species building" because such hybrids are actually new species. In many cases these new species, can be crossed- successfully with wheat. in this way the rust resistance of certain wild grasses may be trans- ferred to wheat. In 1951, a program such as out- lined was started at the Cereal Breeding Laboratory. Undoubted- ly the program will meet with many adversities and will require it number of years before its practicability can be fully as- sessed, "Fish and chips" have been the subject of many jokes on the stage and over the air; but potato growers are coming more and more to realize that, to them, the "chips" part of the famous com- bination is by no means a joke. For potato chips are providing a highly important outlet for in- - creased soles of the lowly spud. The magazine "Canadian Food Industries" reports that as early as 1950 factory sales of potato chips and flakes, in Canada, totalled 3/ million dollars, In the United States the cash value of chips produced in 1951 was almost 185 million dollars.

Towns - ley, Central Exherimsntal Farm, tl'a�i a, ha�'e tested a wide variety of coating and candy re- cipes. They found nine which gave desirable coatings. They were: white powdered sugar; caramel, molasses, molasses and peppermint, peanut taffy, spice, corn syrup candies; nut brittle, maple and lemon candy glazes. 0 s s • It was found that candied coat- ings had to be applied at temper- atures above 300 degrees F. or transfer of moisture from the candy to the chip resulted in a soggy confection. Candies were applied by cook- ing the candy mixes in duble boilers tvith oil used as a heating medium. The cooked candy was poured into greased trays to cool and harden. Pouring - was done' at 310 degrees F. The candy was then greathd to a (Inc powder. Non -salted, fried potato chips were mixed with this powder until the chips were given a thorough coating, These can be used as powdered chips or further treated. to give thein a glazed, candied surface. Glazing consists of exposing the powdered coated chips to an instantaneous flash heat of 1,000 to 1,300 degrees F. which spreads the powder in an even thin glaze over the chips. 4 + r Chocolate coated. chips are made simply by dipping the un- salted potato chips in a semi- , sweet bakers cocolate at 80 to 85 .degrees F. Should flavours such as pepper- mint, maple, lemon, various spice oils, or ground spice be desired, - the flavour should be added -to the candy either after it is con- centrated to the desired temper- ature, and immediately before the candy hardens, or, if the flavour is a powder, it may be added to the ground candy, ? 4 s Cheese coated chips, a more recent development, have also proved popular with a tasting panel to .whom they were sub- mitted, Powdered s k i in m i l k cheese, dusted on the chips and 7.

What's more, the traffic which spurts around the house doesn't seem to annoy thein o bit, As a matter of fact, the busy new turnpike—just 20, miles to the north of Boston—has proved a one-way street to fame and for- tune for the Emerson family. It wasn't ever thus. No less than 300 years ago John Putnam —an ancestor of Galo's—built this charming mansion alongside a quiet Indian trail "to get away from the hubbub' of ,the towne of Salent." Nine generations of Pulnams went on living, there, including the famous General Israel Putnam who led, troops at Bunker Hill. From 1648 until 1949, the handsome colonial re- sidence remained • a nice quiet hideaway, securely insulated against the hustle and bustle of modern life. '!'hen, three years ago, the Massachusetts Department of Public Works began plotting a new super -highway. One of those giant modern eloverleafs, with overpasses and underpasses, would intersect it at Maple Street and Newburypor't Pike. That's just where Galo's house stood. To be frank, he didn't much cotton to the idea of living in a traffic circ 1 e, serenaded by screeching brakes and grinding gears. Besides, the state could find no precedent anywhere per- mitting a family to live in a pri- vate hone, smack in the middle • of a public highway. Still, the mansion was a his- toric landmark, And Gala. wouldn't move. So the depart- ment made a bold decision. They would preserve the house intact with about eight of its original 'acres, within one arm of the cloverleaf, As workmen and steam shovels and grading machines moved in, Galo began warming over an old ambition. He had always wanted to go into business for himself, Maybe this big upheav- al could mean a new style of life in more ways than one. The traf- fic swirling past his front door could also bring customers, He thought of starting a gas station, or maybe a wayside din- ing room, But his spry, dignified heated about three minutes at 350 to 400 degrees F., proved the, most satisfactory, 5 ki rri m i l k, cheese adhered to the surface of the chip whereas fatty cheese slid`..

JIITER . mother—now 78—balked. Not if she could prevent it, she said; it wasn't worthy of family tra- dition. But why not turn an old family custom to profit? The Em- ersons and •Putnams had always been famously good candy -mak- ers, and she had a recipe for fudge, handed down from one generatiosl to smother, that was a dilly, In General Putnam's old work- shop, just 100 feet from the back stoop of his house, Galo installed a Candy Shoppe. He added a few flourishes, like a beamed ceiling, salt box roof anti huge colonial fireplace, Then he hired an old New England candymaker to cook up more than 40 kinds of candy — concentrating on fledge as the Shoppe Specialty. Within six months of its open- ing, Putnam Candies ' had be- come a great success. However, Galo is now a man beset by his own curious traffic problem, The shop sits only 100 feet from his back door — less than. a minute's walk But he likes to drive his car to and from work, on the theory that (I) he needs it for going to the postoffice, (2) he thinks , a car standing in the shop driveway attracts customers. Getting to work is a breeze— he just turns right on the clover- leaf and drives the 100 feet to the store. But the drive home •- that's ,different. He must turn right, since it is a one- way highway, and circtunnavi- gate the entire four arms of the . cloverleaf, -going .over the Maple . Street overpass twice, and tra- versing under passes two times nnore,.That makes it fully a mile's drive home! -The trip makes him a bit dizzy, he says, singe it's all 'in one direction, and one right ,tarn after another. The Putnam Iicitise still snug gees down among a few, remain- ing, great elms, ,as if hiding from the prying eyes of the motorists. There it sits, a quiet .oasis of residential .charm, squarely . in the center. of a' traffic whirlwind, Life lit it, says_Ga1o, "is just like in a beehive, with swarms of buzzing insects all' around the place."

The greatest miracle is the re- surrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. About 9 a.m, Friday, he was crucified, He gave up 1•lis spirit about 3 p.m, Soon His body was taken down from the cross and laid in a tomb, The religious leaders persuaded Pil- ate to post a guard "lest His disciples come by night, and eat Hint away, and say unto the people, 'He is risen from the dead'; so the last error shall be worse than the first." At sunrise Sunday morning the great event took place. Jesus arose, folded the grave clothes and laid them to one side, and went forth. An angel rolled back the stone and sat upon it, This wasn't necessary to let Jesus come forth but to let the dis- ciples enter and see that He was indeed risen, He may have gone before the stone was removed, for doors and walls were no ob- stacle to .!esus after His resur- rection, His body•came from the old but it was different. Fatigue and death would never come again. The body was perfected. The guards were paralyzed with fear and helpless. When the angel rolled away the stone . there was also an earthquake, Women were the first to' the tomb, They .came to care for the body but instead they were greeted. by an angel.

Planting Calendar Flowers and vegelables'nrrange themselves in three convenient main planting groups. First come those. things which will stand a lot of frost. In fact most of them can be sown just as soon as we can get out on the ground in the spring, In this. hardy category are cosmos, :snapdragons and sweet peas among the flowers, and let- tuce, radish, peas and spinach- - among the vegetables. Then come the semi -hardy things, like petunias, nasturtiums, zinnias among the flowers and beets, cabbage, beans, etc., ampng the vegetables. Last are the tender plants which ifs frost does not kill out- right will damage them so severe-• ly that they will actually lag be- hind later plantings, Examples are. dahlias and gladiolus in flowers, and in ,vegetables melons,' cucum- bers, corn and the main planting of potatoes. Of course with the vegetables especially we can' rush the season a bit. Usually a few' rows of corn and potatoes are risked heading of time. In, the seed catalogue, the various de. grecs of hardiness will be shown, On most seed packets, too, there is some indication of the proper time to plant, in addition to other vital information like soil and - sunshine requirements and depth to plant and how far to thin. Upsidedown to Prevent Peclting N <"' 91-3 ,ti 11 NOO1 •atio e By Arthur Pointer r TABLE TALKS eJarz Andrews. ' Ask any food expert what is the most common cause of cook • ery failures or disappointments and the answer will probably be something like this—"Not mak- ing measurements accurately''. 1 have written about this matter before and, if 1 live long enough, will certainly do so '!%gain, be- cause the care we took yesterday doesn't help us today, and we are most of us too prone to "guess" Instead of making sure. So here are some useful hints regarding measuring borrowed from a very attractive booklet put out by The General Foods • people. entitled "Learn to Rake." r In old-time baking, measuring was a matter of judgment. Re- cipes called for "butter the size of an egg," a "heaping cup of sugar," oe "enough flour to stiffen," The results varied with each cook, and with every trial. ?lo wonder baking was a hard-won, art ! Today, there's no need for guesswork. Modern tested re- cipes all talk a conunon language. They are founded upon exact, standard measurements --the use of standard measuring cups, standard measuring spoons, and level measures, These measures are the seine in every kitchen. They make it possible to get the same fine baking results, every time: u , 1 So use standard measuring tools for your baking. You can buy these in almost any town. You nerd standard measuring cups, one for the dry ingredients, another for liquids, and one' or two sets of standard measuring spoons, With this simple but cor- rect •equipment it is possible to measure accurately every in- btedient called for in the usual aking recipe. -' 1. A standard measuring cup is an accurate half-pint measure— the equivalent 01 16 level table- spoons. It is grooved on one side to read V4, 'lx, and s; on the other, to road .1/4 and 35, For measuring liquids a glass measur- ing cup Is convenient, as the top extends above the cup line- and aP prevents spilling, A set of graduated measuring cups has Advantages, too, for level mea- surements of 1-, VJ-, �d-, and 1/4 - pup amounts of dry ingredients dr ehortoning. k A set of standard measuring spoons Includes one tablespoon, one teaspoon, one half -teaspoon, and one quarter -teaspoon, The tablespoon is the equivalent of 3 level teaspoons. b w v All measurements are level. That's the success rule for every modern recipe. The exact technic for measuring each ingredient Is given here. This is the way to get uniform, exact measures every time MERRY MENAGERIE 1047 116 girleY "It's a nudist. colony!" Flour has a tendency to hack on standing, So always sift flour once before measuring. Remem- ber, the woman too busy to bother. to sift may put an extra half -cup of flour in her cake and ruin it, Lift the sifted flour lightly by spoonfuls into the measuring cup and level off by drawing the edge of a spatula or straight. knife across the top. (Do not press flour or shake it down in cup), For fractions of cup, f111 cup lightly to the proper fraction mark. Or use the correct mea-' sure of your kset of graduated cups; fill and level off as just directed, Be sure that the light, sifted flour is piled in cup before level- ing oft' to stake sure the cup is full. Use special care in measuring baking powder. Even a little too much or too little can give dis- appointing results, Be sure to use the baking powder called for in the .recipe and . the exact amount specified, Use a dry standard measuring spoon, Dip the spoon into the baking powder and fill 'it full. Then level off spoon lightly with edge of spatula or straight knife. For fractions use the small sizes of your set of measuring spoons. 1 There are several ways to mea- sure solid shortening. Small amounts are more easily measur• ed by tablespoons; fractions of cups may be measured in graduat- ed treasuring cups, Use one of these convenient ways: (1) Press shortening into a measuring cup (or tablespoon), packing in tightly. Then level off at top or fraction mark, (2) An easy way to measure butter is by weight. Allow ?'_ pound for 1 cup, With print - butter, r/a pound equals r,$ cup. • (3) Or measure. shortening by water displacement. For example,' to measure 1/2 cup shortening, fill cup half -full of cold water; add shortening until water rises to top of eup; then drain off all water, This leaves r/e cup shorten- ing in the cup. Measure melted shortening like a liquid. 4 4 4 With granulated or white sugar, fill a standard measuring cup, or spoon with the sugar, and level off with edge of spatula or straight knife. Brown sugar needs to be pack- ed into the cups so firmly that i1. holds the shape of the cup when turned out, This gives a consist- ent measurement. Average -sized eggs (medium to large) are used in most, recipes. If using small eggs, allow about 3lk tablespoons slightly mixed whole egg for each egg in recipe. . 4 , ' 1+ Use special' care in measuring liquids for undermeasuring is a common fault, For accuracy, set measuring cup on a level surface. Otherwise the surface of the liquid may ,slant and deceive you. Fill until a liquid flows ,into the c o r'r e s t -•; groove - mark of cup, do not 'undermeasure. Thick liquids and syrups, such -as molasses, corn syrup, or honey, 'It should be poured into the spoon or cup from the container or from another .spoon.. If the cup has already been used to measure shortening or water, the syrup will empty out .readily. Do not dip a measuring spoon into sticky liquids for too much will cling to underside of s 00 n, 'causing overmeasurement or waste.

When My Graduation Was Nearly Ruined - On the night of June 15, 190.4, Elmer Black and I, with our classmates, took part in the grad- uation exercises of the Colfax High School. I had written my Commencement oration on "The Nineteenth Century: The Eighth Wonder of the World." . The Methodist church was packed. Elmer Black and I sat with our classmates on the flower -banked platform; our par- ents were seated a dozen rows back, and on their faces was the expression of worried hopeful- ness common to the parents of the high school graduates upon such occasions. 1 looked anx- iously around the church for my brother, Harvey, but he was no- where to be seen, 1 felt easier 'after that.. , . Hazel Swaihart was again in her seat, having sustained the' record; unbroken so far by the members Of' the Class of 1904, for the ease and assurance with which the orations had been had been delivered. Miss Mischler, our high school superintendent, rose once more and adjusted his spectacles. "The next oration is by Nor- man Hall, His subject is 'The' -Eight Wunder of the World: The Nineteenth Century.'" As I stepped forward to speak 1 saw my brother, Harvey, sit- ting in the front row of pews directly below me, . , Our mother had promised me that Harvey would be in one of the seats farthest front the platform where I would not be able to • see him; nor had I seen him all through the program until just before I rose to orate. How he had managed to sneak up to the first row just before my turn came ,was more than I could guess, and I had no time for , guessing at the moment. He had a command of facial expression that was, truly, imp - like. He neither smiled nor gig- glcd, but looked up at me with an innocent air of feigned inter- ' est that would have fussed a wooden image. As I stood there, appalled at the sight of him, his lips moved, and I knew that he was forming the words: "Look to the Northward, Stranger." "One hundred years ago the : morning broke, and in the light of a 'dawning era, the remnants of once -mighty hosts: Ignorance, Bigotry and Superstition, were • •.,tkring in full retreat toward the Night of the Past." 00 what 1 would, I was forced to glance again at Harvey, He .waited with the same ;air of blandly grave expectancy as though he were saying: "Yes? And then?" Not one. of my classmates had faltered, I, had to be the first. The silence in the church was beyond all silence. For n mo- ment my mind was blank; but thought of the shame it would he to go down in defeat before this imp of 'a lurid brother arous- ed me to a truly heroic efort, f was saved by the sight of Mr. Logston, • janitor; of the church, whom I saw standing in the rear of: the _ auditorium, I began again, and by keeping my eyes -fixed. upon him • I brought. -the Nineteenth: century to a trium- phant conclusion. --From "My Is- land' Home," by James Norman Hall. - A .London youth WW1 sUtn- , nioned a few weeks ago for fail . ing to report for his At'my ser- ' vice..

Every practical farmer knows that a hired man can be very dear at 650 per month doing a lot of damage to the cows and machinery, while another one who has the know-how may be cheap at $150, and make money Tor the boss, With Industry and lig busi- ness offering tremendous oppor- tunities to the go-getters, agri- culture will have to match them. Agriculture is still the biggest industry in Ontario and needs the best man to manage its af- fairs. I1 will, of course, have to pay him accordingly. Labour ]las done all this and has gone ahead ever since they started organizing. Why should not the farmers be capable of doing the same? If Ontario farmers had this kind of organization, they would not have to worry so much about lost markets, slipping prices and the competition of edible•oils. i. 1. 1, Up To The Farmers The people of Ontario were aroused by the large advertise- ments in the daily newspaper's; denouncing the provincial gov- ernment for trying to ban mar, garble and peanut butter and shortening. Not -knowing any- thing about the true situation they fall for specious arguments, Had the milk producers car- ried on an open educational campaign informing the people of the possible dangers of re- placing milk and milk products by synthetic substitutes, they would have had public opinion behind them, To complain about reduced in. come is not enough. City people have to be made to realize that a reduced purchasing power of the farmer means lay-offs in in- dustry, Just as unemployment in industry means lost markets for the farmer. Farmer representatives will have to present a strong case be- fore the Agricultural Committee of the Legislature to win some protection against imitations of dairy products. g.4:;.r�}XNk { Jimmy Ross takes "Prince," the dog, and "Ducky" to the store. More Light Needed Another chore for farm or• fanizattons is the lifting of the og that lies over marketing legislation, provincial and feder- al. It seems to us that a lot has been said about the right of the producers to 'control tie mar- keting of their products. Very little has been done to establish this right. If farmers were given the long promised Legislation providing viding for marketing agencies for marketing agencies with the power to enter inter -provincial and export trade, there would hardly .be any problem of farm surpluses. Canadian farmers could do the same as Australians and New Zealanders are doing. They could establish their own agen- cies gen •cies in Britain, sell their cheese, skim milk powder, bacon and apples and accept payment in Sterling. They could use this Sterling for purchases anywhere in the Sterling area, practically half the world. Quite a number of articles presently imported from. U.S.A. could be brought over from Britain or other countries to be marketed in Canada through the farmers' co-oper- atives, Possibly the prices received would not be as high as Canadi- an prices; they would have to be comparable to the prices of other countries. Probably the greater problem would .he the .fulfillment of any contracts un- dertaken; surpluses are not too big yet. Certainly any such scheme would help_ to stabilize the home markets, It can be done and it ought to be done, but it will not be done, unless the individual farm- er is willing to spend some of. his • time and his dollars to set up t}lat one strong organization we mentioned in the opening paragraph of this article. {.

Just a say- ing of course, but I suppose all these old-world weather pre- dictions must have been tound- ed on the personal observations of country folk throughout the the years. Here are a few more weather forecasts all wrapped up in rhyme. Signs of Foul Weather "The hollow winds begin to blow; l'he clouds look black, the glass is low. The soot falls clown, the spaniels sleep And spiders from their cobwebs creep, Inst night the sun went pale to bed, The ifioon in halos hid his head, The boding shepherd heaves a sigh For see a rainbow in the sky, Nark, how the chairs and tables crack -- Old Betty's joints are on the rack, Her corns with shooting pains torment her And to her bed untimely sent her.

Matthew 28:20 " I IJ Vit IRI lei I in the city .At least I was as comfortable as I could be while riding around in the street -cars for a good part of the day. I mean that literally as I had to go to the opposite outskirts of the city twice — but 'fortunate- ly not in rush hours. I also had occasion to visit one of the de- partments in the Parliament Buildings, and believe me, I couldn't have been treated with greater courtesy or consideration. It was very gratifying to find public officials so pleasant and obliging to an absolute stranger One sometimes hears , rumours to the contrary. Another experience last week concerned plumbing, and as a result we are very thankful we are not faced with the necessity of putting in a furnace or a bath- room, Our outside pump was giving trouble. Partner was sure the leather washer had perished, and so we sent for a plmber. Time was when Partner would have done a job like that him- self -- but it is beyond hire now. The plumber arrived, .along with his assistant; took tint the pump, fixed it and put it. back again. The men were here less than an hour yet the bill for labour alone was $5. Now, just suppose we had to have a big job done, an eight-hour day would cost at least $40 for labour, plus the high cost of materials used. That is the sort of thing that makes farmers dissatisfied with their own returns, .A bathroom today would run into at least $1000 — and possibly considerably more, It would take a lot of milk, eggs, cream, or wheal -- or even eight or nine cows -- to make up a $1000. Incidentally, the 'rouble with our pump was not caused by. a defective washer but by a nice, fat frog, The brass screening had broken away from the intake and this poor little frog had become wedged in the pipe. Partner was almost afraid to tell me they had found a frog in the well! He needn't have been. The thought of a frog in our drinking water did not worry me — not for that length of time. 'Frogs and water seem to' belong together. And after alt frogs' legs are consi- dered a delicacy, It it bad been a rat or a few dead mice .. ugh! that would have been differ- ent. Came to think of it, it would have been more appropriate had they found a snake so close to St. Patrick's Day.

HERE'S A TREAT THAT WILL MAKE ANY CEREAL TASTE BETTER TRY IT NOW, JACKIE— AND TASTE THE DIFFERENCE/ rr Hid Their Money In Queer Places A Cornish farmer, persuaded to invest in National Savings produced £150 in half-crowns from an old milk churn, He was one of those people who for some reason distrust banks and choose strange hiding -places for their wealth. For even in 1953 there are folk who like hoarding their savings in places where they believe they will be "safer than the Bank of England." An old man in Eire had a shock when one day he discov- ered that his wife sold one of the household pillows to an old junk man for a few pence. No wonder! The pillow contained about £400, his life savings, which he had deposited there secretly without telling even his wife. But he was lucky; he man- aged to retrieve his fortune from the junk merchant. Treasury notes for £450 re- mained wrapped round cistern pipes in a Liverpool house for three years before they were dis- I covered by n new tenant. It was found that the old tenant had placed them there during a long period of frost to keep the water from freezing and because he thought it was the finest possible • hiding -place. When he moved out, he forgot the money! A tobacco jar, a dog's kennel and a music -stool have been used at various times as "banks," A retired Lancashire mill -hand who suddenly decided to en- trust his savings to a bank said he had previously kept them in a stuffed bird. An old 'woman who died some time ago had kept her money in a hollowed bone, And it was found that a patient, in an United Statse hospital had for five years used her wooden leg as a safe deposit for $2,000. A man had seven thousand sovereigns under the floor of his bedroom in a Teddington house • during the fust World War. He put them in tobacco tins, he said later, and concealed thein there "for safety against•air-raids" The lids of the tins were glued down. Some people carry fortunes in the clothing they wear every day. A woman old -age pension- er left a Blackpool hospital with . nearly £5,000 tucked under her arm in a brown paper parcel. Her • hoard was discovered, fastened with safety -pins in her many pockets after she had been knocked down while crossing a road. Some of the notes. were new; many were limp and soiled and 'had obviously been carried around by the woman for years. Many Of then were screwed into tiny balls. A Fort Wayne, Ind., man, re- ported that he had set foot in every country in the United States (3,074 of them). WOW/ THAT'S TERRIFIC, MOM! WHAT IS It CALLED.?.CAN ' I HAVE MORE? ;IT'S DELICIOUS! Good taste For Teens By SALLY This week we're going to talk about that common teen com- plaint, "Why Boys Lose Inter- est." The boy in your life doesn't 'phone any more and living is a pretty dull affair without hies, Even your girl friends tell you your torch is showing. And the sad thing about it, it isn't the first time this has happened. Just a couple of months ago, that terrific fellow, for no apparent reason, walked put of your life. Before him there was Jimmy, whim you also thought was ter- rific, jus' didn't cull any more, either. You just can't figure it out; you're nice enough looking, wear keen clothes, dance quite well, in fact you believe you're all the things you think boys like in a girl. But they just don't come over any more. Its enough to give a gal a king-sized inferiority complex. Besides, think of the wear and tear on your heart: its terrific, Something is wrong, that's for sure; but WHAT? You wish and wish that some- one would tell you. Well, that's our aim, In fact, we've taken things in our own hands and ask- ed the boys to tell us. Here are the questions and their answers. If you were going with a girl and liked her very much, what could she do that would make you lose interest in her, to the extent that you'd stop going with her'! Possessiveness, Boys apparent- ly, just don't like possessive girl friends. They say, "A smart girl never makes a boy feel trapped," Being chased, Boys don't like to be chased by a girl. They feel very strongly about this, They say, they like to pursue and that they lose interest as soon as they discover a girl is theirs for the asking. Anticipation, they say, is part of the chase, and if they know how a girl is going to act, because she has already done her part, they stop chasing and lose interest. They said they lone in- terest from a lack of the admir- ation, which every boy feels for the girl who is hard to get. This, they told us, doesn't mean a girl, has to play coy, A smart girl waits for a boy to ask her for a date, she doesn't 'phone suggest- ing dates and making plans. They did say, that sometimes a girl should "play games •with a boy and not let him know that she sits at home, waiting for hisn to call, A smart girl doesn't let a boy become too .sure of her. PRETENSE: Boys say they def- initely dislike pretense or arti- ficiality in their girls, They want their girl friend to be a girl and to be herself; feminine and in- teresting. So girls know the type of per- son you are, Perhaps your strong point is sympathy and warmth and this makes you naturally in- terested in others and in their problems. ' 'Therefore, you can make a boy feel superior and masculine by stressing your own femininity.

They' say a great ninny girls think they are better than the boy who pays the bill, Boys told us a little secret, They need admiration, so much so, they'll seek it until they find it. A smart girl knows that true admiration is really kindness. Kindness is remembering not t0 hurt the feelings of others. Be quick to lift a boy's morale; give with the sweet talk and let life hand out the disappointments and remember that boys,bruise ensily. They said, A smart girl, they tell us, is generous with kind words and flatters her beau's ego by being interested in him, rather than herself. Make a boy friend feel he is the most wonderful person you've ever met and he'll be re- luctant to leave you.

Mash carrots as you would potatoes and put plenty of heavy cream or butter in. Serve piping hot. Salt to taste. 2, Cook sliced carrots and set to one side while you prepare a sauce for them. Fry out a couple of slices of baccon which has been cut up. When a nice light brown, pour on a cup of cream. Have hot and pour onto sliced carrots. 3. Cook carrots, Matte a vary thick white sauce and add car- rots; mashing thele first. Then spread combined mixture on a platter and let stand a couple or hours.

So it was but natural that a glittering hockey slit-, Rocket Richard of Montreal Canatliens, whose feat in' breaking the ancient lifetime goals record, 324, compiled by Nele Stewart, should have hcen voted Canada's athlete of the year. • Richard is the Babe Ruth of hockey, a dynamic showman, a magnetic figure. But it seems as though the selectors, perhaps soured by Canada's famine of honors at the Olympic; Games, overlooked one of the most brilliant achievements of 1052 by a Canadian youth, We mean the performance of 17 -year-old George Genereux of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, the high school boy who won 10 of Canada's total of 30 points, and its only t► Gold Medal, symbol of Olympic supremacy, when he defeated the greatest trap -shooters in the world. That one so young should win such honors is unusual. That he should lack the acclaim such a performance merits, is unfortunate. George Genereux's record in his favorite sport fs little short of fabulous: He was only 13 years old when he first started to shoot at the Saskatoon Gun Club. Ills ability Was quickly spotted by Jimmie Girgulis, veteran trapshooting star. Girgulis was Introducing his sons to the clay -target busting business one afternoon, by letting them shoot at birds with a .410 shotgun, when George joined In. This proved to 0e an Important meeting, for, from that time on tournament -wise Girgulis kept George under his wing and has been his coach and mentor ever since. The first major victory in competitive shooting for George was in 1949, when at the tender age of 14 he shot his way to the Mnnitobn-Saskatchewan }Iandicap Championship. Two years later at the American Trapshooting Association competitions at Vandalia, Ohio, he won three North American champion- ships—the Junior, the Junior All -Around and the Junior High Over All. Last yenr at the contests sponsored by the A.T.A. he was runner-up in the Junior Preliminary Handicap Championship, and won the Junior Champion of Champions of. North America title. To this he added the Saskatchewan Championship (Singles). Then before going to the Olympics he stopped at Oslo, Norwa-v, lvhere he placed second in the World Champion. ships.

They are drawn in pairs to decide which side shall oppose which. Each mateh is commenced by the two captains concerned standing upright by the circle and dropping their "tolleys" (the heavy glass marble .with' which the shooting is clone) from im- mediately below their noses to a line marked on the ground.

Television gets the blame for many things these. days. It kills the art of conversation, say non - viewers, acts as a drug on the mind, and keeps the kiddies up too late. Now it's being cited as a spreader, of onychophagy. There may be something in it. For what is more conducive to nail-biting (alias onychophagy) among the very young then• an eerie play . on TV? -unless it's a horror film, radio thriller, or even a creepy boolc ..,Nail-biting .is'said to be due to the instinct of a child to put every object in its mouth.

" It's an automatic, U11COn- scious and frequently impulsive act," according to the Journal of the A..M.Atr'`an expression of tenseness usually found in fidge- ty, highly -strung, over active children." 'I'rcatmcrnt should be aimed al finding the cause of the tension, "Nagging or punishing a nail - biter never stops him for more than half a minute.
