Enriched Bread 3/$1.09 Carnation Mashed Instant Potatoes Mc Larens Sweet A winter, such as this one, should teach us to appreciate the fellows who brave the blustery elements to plow our roads and to maintain the warmth in our homes. The snowplowers and the hydro crews work in weather that forces the rest of us to hibernate. Nevertheless we criticise them. The men driving the snowplows, for instance, flatten our mailboxes, bend our gateposts and pile snow at the ends of our driveways. When we're stumped by a blocked road or stranded in a snowbank, we wonder where the plowman is. We concede he can't be two places at once, but we're still irritated. Of course, if we manned the machines, we think we'd do a better job. As we snuggle under our electric blankets at four a.m. and listen to the plows pass by, we're content to leave the job to someone else, however. If those electric blankets grow cold and we realize our hydro is off, we rush to the telephone. Then we wait impatiently for the repair crew, regardless of the weather conditions. My appreciation of the hydro workers was confirmed last January, On a Sunday afternoon, a team was dispatched to our farm to replace a transformer. A brisk wind was whipping the snow, and the concession roads were filling in quickly. Visibility, at times, was nil. The drive from the hydro office to our farm, a 1 cup hot water I., cup cold water 1 tsp vinegar 1 .1 cup salad dressing Mix and place in fridge begins to jell about 1/2 Remove, whip until fluffy.

Gwyn's Salad Prepare a large size lime jello using 1 2 cup less water than the directions call for, till it Beat in 1/3 cup mayonnaise hour. When the mixture is cool add: 1 cup shredded carrot 1 cup shredded turnip 1 cup shredded cabbage 1 small onion 1 tbsp sugar salt Mrs. Earl Campbell spoke on "Never Underestimate the Power of a Woman" to Xi Gamma Nu Chapter of Beta Sigma Phi when it met at the home of Mrs. Ted Jones, Tuesday evening. She reminded her listeners that every human being, male or female, has a mother and it is she who mainly influences a child's m1,11 attitudes towards other people, himself, and the world around him, Mrs, Campbell stressed that Open Friday Until Nine TIDE DETERGENT King Size The closing of Exeter arena has caused problems for yet another local group. South Huron Hospital auxiliary is faced with having to find a new location for their annual Spring rummage sale which was scheduled in May at the arena. Mrs. Mel Gaiser, reporting for the rummage sale committee, said she is exploring every avenue to find another place suitable for the sale. Mrs. Roylance Westcott, first vice president, took the chair in the absence of president, Mrs. Thomas McMillan. Two upcoming conferences were announced: the Spring Conference in Tillsonburg, April 26, and the Leadership con- ference at Inn on the Park, Toronto, April 27 and 28, The next meeting will take the form of a potluck luncheon, April 13, at 1 p.m. at which time members will bring a donation or an article for the hospital cart. At that meeting, candy-stripers who have put in over 100 hours will be presented with their 100 hour charms. In charge at the health clinic on March 16 will be Lois Snell, and 5 lb. Box if /0' distance of about twelve miles, took almost two hours. In the meantime, darkness had fallen, and we had given up all hope of seeing the men that night. Suddenly we noticed the spotlight on their truck scanning the power lines. What a welcome sight! Sleet was pelting down by then, stinging the men's faces and coating the fur on their parkas. They struggled tlu`ough snow to their hips, but they persevered. Before leaving our farm, they phoned the office and received another trouble call; this one in Sebringville. Meanwhile, another team had been dispatched to Carlow, The next morning the same repairmen answered more emergencies, because they worked a double shift. Although most people ap- preciate the efforts of the hydro repair crews, some folks are never satisfied. One fellow, for example, called the office one evening to demand immediate service. After the men restored the power to his house, he poked his head out the door just long enough to holler, "You lazy `so- and-sos,' what took you so long? I wanted to watch Carol Bur- nett." The hydro workers and the snowplowers have one thing in common. Their jobs are sometimes thankless ones. It takes a blizzard, such as the one we received in the first week of February, to force them off the roads. To keep our houses warm and our roads passable, they battle against weather conditions that compel the rest of us to huddle inside. They make the winter bearable for us, and the least we can do is say "thanks."

Business manager Dick Jongkind ordered in fried chicken while others supplied fresh rolls. Madeline Witmer and I brought the salads for which there were some requests for the recipes printed below. Joining our "Celebrity kooks" this week is the youngest on the editorial staff, Fred Youngs who offered to make his famous "Floaters" for lunch one day. Since he has just become a cook it was with some trepidation that we approached his fare feeling somewhat like sheep being led to the slaughter but surprisingly enough what he produced was indeed quite excellent. "Floaters" is a name coined (so Mr. Youngs tells me) one morning while he and his friends were eating them in the rain when attending Mosport racing activities. I will assure you that rain is not a prerequisite:to enjoy this dish. Fred's Floaters 1 pound of bacon fried crisp Pour off fat Add: 1 can stewed tomatoes 1 bottle of beer (water can be substituted) When the mixture is boiling break into it 12 eggs Poach eggs to a satisfactory degree and spoon out on plates, making sure everyone gets some bacon, tomatoes and eggs. Serves five or six reasonable people or two gluttons. Madeline's salad 1 pkg. lemon jello Mrs. Lee Learn give an in- teresting account of her recent trip to Inuvik at the Presbyterian Church Women's meeting, Monday night. She and her husband spent a month there this winter visiting their son Fred and his family. She ended her talk by discussing the problems they encountered with regard to the Eskimos. Mrs. Learn's talk tied in with the Study on the problems of minority groups in Canada. Mrs. C. Ersman read a paper prepared by Mrs. N. Stanlake, about the Presbyterian Chur- ch's ministry to minorities from Europe and China, Mrs. C. Cann one's offspring will be influenced postively if a mother presents a happy image as opposed to sad; good natured image as opposed to perpetually cranky; 'oplimistic as opposed to pessimistic; cheerful as opposed to glum; contented as opposed to dissatisfied. She went on to say that since women have so much power, it follows that they also have a great responsibility. She said while it is true men have ex- ploited women, it is also true that women have exploited men often discussed some of the difficulties encountered by the Canadian Indians, and a film strip was shown on the subject. The devotions, also prepared by Mrs, Stanlake were given by Mrs, K. Bridges. It was suggested each member take a `Journey of Love' throughout the Lenten season by doing special acts of kindness every week. Mrs. Dorothy Bullock sang two solo selections accompanied by Mrs. Leila Finkbeiner. Mrs. H.H. Strang was in charge of the business section of the meeting. Plans were made for the annual Spring Take-out Dinner, April 11, and for a Plant Party, April 21, Times-Advocate.
