Brownies visit cannery orphanage
out and watching the corn to
make sure machines worked
right. We then saw many bags
of starch which was later put in
machines, with the corn to mix
together.
After seeing the corn and
starch getting mixed we saw
where the corn was put in cans,
the cans had their lids sealed
on and then put in steamers to
cook.
After the steamers the corn
was put in very cold water to
cool the cans.
We then went into a room
where a man opened some cans
and put the corn on clean plates
where we were given spoons
so we could taste it. It was
warm and tasted very good,
We then saw all the cans
getting the labels on. This was
done by cans rolling along. a
sort of track and at a certain
place rolled on the wrappers
which then stuck fast.
The next thing that was done
was the packing in boxes. A
man would assemble the boxes
and put the cans in as they came.

This ended our land tour of
Spain. For five days we visited
Morocco,. a country in the north
west of Africa just seven miles
across the Straits of Gibraltar
from Spain. Thor costumes,
ways of live, habitations and
customs are varied, one reason
why Morocco is such a delight
to the tourist. The official re-
ligion is Muslim or Moslem as
Just after that all of the
Brownies were given a can of
creamed corn.
The second and last building
we went in was the storage
building. In there the boxes
were piled about from 70 to
90 boxes high..
When we got out we saw a
field sprinkled with water, We
found out the water was the
excess water from the factory.
When. the second group came
out we gave our guides. a Grand
Howl, thanked them very much,
and left.
We went to the train station
just for fun and then went on
back to the Scout Hall, When
we got back we gave Brown

Corn tasted 'good'
BY RUTH SNIDER
A week or two before Thanks-
giving the Second Exeter
Brownie Pack went to the Can-
nery in Exeter.
On our way we walked in
groups of two. Some of us sang
but most Of us talked about
what we would see there and if
any of our friends or relatives
worked there.
When we got there, Brown
Owl talked to the manager, whO
told us where to go to meet our
guides,
Our pack was divided in half,
with each half haying a guide.
We saw the corn (the cannery
canned corn) being husked first
of all.
Then we saw women sorting
Cover those rose plants
Huge washroom, too!
By HELEN TILLEY
We went to the orphanage
Saturday afternoon. There were
six cars which took us, When
we got there we saw many boys
and girls. Some were about my
age.
We saw their toys and bed-
rooms. There was also a place
where they ate dinner. They had
a huge washroom too!
Outside they had a merry-go-
round, a swimming pool, a sand-
box, monkey-bars, and swings.
Soon it was time to go home.
On the way home I thought,
"Maybe they have all the toys
they want, but they don't have
any parents."

STEAK FROM SAXONS
Steak comes from an old
Saxon word, "steik" meaning
"meat on a stick."
The Saxons and Jutes, who
lived in what is now Denmark,
brought their skills as cattle-
men and some of their tame
animals when they conquered
Great Britain. They favored
broiled beef and cooked it on a
pointed stick over a campfire,
anticipating local cookouts or
barbecues by some 16 centu-
ries.
frost is coming out of the
ground.
Before applying the above
materials make sure that the
ground is frozen to avoid mice
invasion. It is also a good plan
to draw in additional soil to
mound up the plants. In areas
where the winters tend to be
severe it may be necessary to
cover the bushes completely
with soil.
Climbing or rambling roses
are best protected by tying the
canes together and bending them
as close to the ground as pos-
sible without causing breaking
or splitting, It is wise to tie
them down to a stake and then
cover with soil. If it is con-
venient to detach the climbers
from their supports, try wrap-
ping the canes up with straw and
burlap, or heavy waterproof
paper.
For strong spring growth,
hybrid tea, floribunda, grandi-
flora, polyantha, and climbing
roses require protection during
the winter in most parts of
Ontario. Now is the time to take
precautions say horticulturists
with the Ontario Department of
Agriculture.
First draw up the soil around
the bases of the bushes to a
height of several inches. After
the ground is frozen an addi-
tional covering of straw, strawy
manure or leaves should be
applied. To help trap the snow
and give extra protection, cedar
brush, or other twiggy branches
should be placed on top. In the
spring this brush covering pro-
vides shade and prevents to a
considerable extent, the heaving

deal of root damage when the

BAKED ALASKA
This recipe for Alaska Mince
Pie reminds me that Mrs. Al-
mer Passmore demonstrated
the making of Baked Alaska at
the dessert short course. It
looked easy to see her do it.
For individual servings of
Baked Alaska buy the individual
sponge cakes at the store--the
kind with a hollow in the top.
Put sponge cakes on a board
and fill hollow and top with hard
ice cream, Cover completely
the ice cream and cake with
meringue.
Be sure to seal the meringue
around the cake and ice cream
so that there is not even the
tiniest opening to let in air.
Make peaks and hollows in the
meringue with a spoon or fork.

That delight of Christmas
eaters, mincemeat, has quite a
history. English records and
manuscripts mentioning myn -
c e pyes" go back as far as the
15th century, when, for in-
stance, they formed part of the
feast celebrating the coronation
of King Henry the Fifth.
Early mincemeat pies were
very different from today's fa-
miliar delicacy. Often called
mutton pies or Christmas pies,
they were substantial main dish
items rather than the desserts
we know and consisted mainly
of meat such as beef, pork or
mutton, along with assorted spi-
ces.
One early recipe used in1486
contained a hare, a pheasant,
two partridges, two pigeons and
two rabbits, spiced and cooked,
then put together to resemble a
bird, with the meat stuffed into
a pastry shell and feathers
arranged over all.
Today's recipe f eature s
mincemeat in handsome new
Christmas dress.
