She also described the auxil­ iary as a public relations group or clearing house for false im­ pressions of the hospital, gained by members of the community. Mrs. Dewan said that, while monitary aid was very important to the hospital, the auxiliary should be very conscious of the need for physical and spiritual aid as well. She included in her outline the need for providing special com­ forts for patients, especially the at in on needy, and she suggested nume­ rous methods by which money could be raised for the many projects.

She is an interesting personality and spoke well with enough humor to hold her audience for an hour. The essence of her talk was wrapped sentences sentences sideration Dominion. Woman’s .Plea She made a woman’s plea that Canadian women rediscover, as she did, 'Canada’s great po­ tential. She asked that we recog­ nize Canada and the Empire as among the greatest instruments for world peace and that we thank God for the opportunity which Canada offers us, our families and associates. It wasn’t the old suggestion that we count our blessings, hut a suggestion that we wake up to our opportunities and even that we work from those great opportunities.

And perhaps one of the biggest functions at this time of yeai’ for that parlor is that it provides a cosy and cheery place for scores of Farm Forums across the country. Gone are the evenings when mother sat quietly in a corner with her mending while the men talked of things she wasn’t sup­ posed to understand. Now, and particularly in Farm Forum meetings, mother is a big part of the discussion. Her mending- abandoned, she talks and learns with the best of them. And what is more important, she under­ stands and adds greatly to conversation. Big Change Even comparing her with farm wife and mother of years ago we see a tremendous change. No longer is she the silent partner gaining only .a sort of martyrdom from her hard work. She’s progressing too. In the the tlie 20 she job are and her kitchen is the equipment needs to run her part of the efficiently. Her children bettei’ fed in mind and body her husband is happier and more fit for his job. And when we read reports of discussion groups of Farm Fo­ rum meetings in our newspaper, we see another accomplishment of the farm wife and mother. For because she has been able to transcribe the thoughts that pass in those meetings, into writing, we know that she has a deep rooted understanding of those thoughts. And she has given them to us that we also may understand farm lems. life and prob- * ** The Pantry How about lunches at your house? Soup or sandwiches can get pretty dull aftei’ a while. We’ve been looking around for a bit of variety in lunch menues and here are a few ideas you might be interested in. Served Ou Toast If you have lots of greens, celery, 'carrots, lettuce on hand, these mixtures will form the basis of a tasty and nutritious lunch. They are even bettei- if served on a crisp piece of toast or buttered toast strips. (a) (b) Creamed peas and salmon Creamed peas and poached eggs Boiled cabbage and carrots with cheese-milk sauce Boiled spinach with poach­ ed eggs Condensed room or over toast with cream or cheese sauce if necessary Warm Beverage A warm beverage is welcome for a change too. Hot chocolate made with skim milk powder is good, economical and nutritious. You might like instant coffee made with hot milk instead of water and sweetened to taste.
