If your family tire of the
same old sandwiches in their
lunch boxes, surprise them with
some different breads. Ham
fillings, whether sliced or salad
style, are great in crusty kaiser
rolls, hamburg buns and hot dog
rolls, as well as in rye, whole
wheat and many specialty
breads.

FURY: Two brand new high perfor-
mance Furys make the scene this year.
Sport Fury GT and 5/23. With dual
hood runners, "strobe stripes" and
power plants that go as high as a 440
six barrel on the GT. Extra width be-
tween the rear wheels gives Fury a
new wide stance, more stability, better
traction. Other new features include
fiberglass-belted tires, an anti-theft
ignition switch on the steering column,
hide-away headlamps, All in all, Fury
is a car to remember. A car that says,
you've made it, And Plymouth makes it.
I had the pleasure Friday
evening to crown Mrs. Keith
McLaren of Cromarty Baking
Queen of the Exeter Fall Fair.
The lady has had a busy. few
weeks for she has baked for fairs
in Zurich, BaYfield and Seaforth
as well as Exeter.
She told me she baked one
item fOr each class to show at
Exeter. She won first prize for
her orange chiffon cake,
raspberry cake, angel cake,
cocoanut tarts, peanut butter
cookies and fruit cakes.
I asked her to send the
recipes for all of these. Along
with the recipes came this note.
"For angel cake I use the
recipe on the cake flour package.
I had first for both fruit cakes
but I change the recipes
considerably so I can't just tell
exactly what I do put in. Hope
this is PK."
I'm sure it is OK, Mrs,
McLaren. I think it is just the
mark of a baking champ.

Friday evening talent show in
the arena..
Last year I remember hove
boring and tedious the evening
became while the audience was
forced to sit quietly (?) by as the
judges in the baby contest made
their choices,
This year all that was
changed. The baby classes were
judged in another room and the
audience was entertained by
some top-flight local talent while
the babies and their mothers
were impressing the judges.
Among the local talent was a
young man by the name of
Vincent Glaab. It isn't my
business to pass judgement on
the performers at the show
Friday evening but I'm sure
many local people will agree
with me that this youngster is
something very special.
He plays an accordion as
though the instrument was a
functioning part of his body.
Few professionals have the style
and flare of young Glaab. I
suggest you watch this boy. He's
going places. * * *
Just another little reminder
to the ladies of the district to
send us the accounts of their
organizations,
The women's page of this
newspaper should be a mirror of
the happenings in the ladies'
world, but there just isn't time
or opportunity to follow up
every meeting notice.
I depend on you girls to send
us the reports from your church
groups, the WI's, the lodges, the
social clubs, the service clubs,
Plynoutli

PARAPALEfi NI1
etc. etc, FXOTII time to time there
May be mistakes. EverybodY
makes them, But for the most,
part, your contribution to the
women's page will be well worth
any effort we spend.

ther this fall,
I had some rather surprising
reaction from my little tale
about the squash which
exploded in my kitchen last
week.
My mother-in-law read the
little blurb in the paper and said
she almost went into convulsions
at the thought of me wiping
roasted squash off my pew
kitchen ceiling.
She thought my disaster was
too bad but so-o-o funny.
Oddly enough that seemed to
be the reaction I got from most
everyone: They thought I must
have been really stupid not to
have known enough to poke a
few holes in the squash before
beginning the baking.
One friend told me to try
again. He said (with a bit of a
glint in his eye) that his mother
always baked squash whole. I
wonder
