The Wingham Advance-Times, 1964-01-30, Page 5Wintertime Supper Dishes What to serve the family for supper: It is the main dish, not the dessert which seems to pose a problem for many home- makers, particularly during the long months of winter. By using one after another each of the protein -type foods, that is eggs, cheese, meat, poultry, fish and dried beans in making supper dishes, you will have a fair variety but nothing in compar- ison to the assortment you could have by combining any one of them in several appealing ways with macaroni, spaghetti or noodles, potatoes or bread, and last but not least with canned or frozen vegetables. SCALLOPED EGGS AND PEAS 6 hard cooked eggs 1 can (20 ounce) peas, drained cup butter cup flour teaspoon salt 11 cups milk 1 cup shredded, medium ched- dar cheese 3 tablespoons bread crumbs 3 tablespoons grated, medium cheddar cheese.

The Consumers Section home economists of the Canada Department of Agriculture recommend it on three counts—quick prepara- tion, moderate cost, and high food value. Party Held for Mrs. St. George Mrs. John Day and Mrs. D. A. Rathbun were hostesses at the latter's home recently for a farewell party for Mrs. Bruce St. George. Mrs. St. George will leave shortly with her hus- band and family for Durham, New Hampshire. Friends and neighbors pre- sent were Mrs. Bill Rintoul, Mrs. Betty Feagan, Mrs. Don Rosenhagan, Mrs. Monty Sni- der, Mrs. Rae Meyer, Mrs. Jack Goodall, Mrs. Norm El- liott, Mrs. Don Hopper and Mrs. Ross Wormworth. Mrs. St. George was present- ed resented with a gift. In her reply she told her friends that she had enjoyed living in Wingham and in her particular neighborhood. Mrs. Day and Mrs. Rath- bun served a delixious salad lunch. Niece to Dance Leading Role On `Festival" The C. B. C.'s forthcoming hour-long production on Febru- ary 5th on "Festival", featuring the Royal Winnipeg Ballet, will have Miss Marilyn Young danc- ing the leading role, that of the "Maiden" in the ballet "The Bitter Weird", choreo- graphed by Miss Agnes DeMille. Miss Young was prima bal- lerina with the Royal Winni- peg Ballet for several years, un- til her retirement a year ago. Since that time she has made guest appearances only, and it was at the special request of Miss DeMille that she dance this role, which was one of her greatest triumphs. Miss Young, in private life, is married to Grant Marshall, an interior designer, who teach- es at the university, and also has his own business. Miss Young says the exacting, time- consuming life of the ballet does not permit one to be a good wife, too, so she has chosen the latter role. In an article in "TV Guide" this week, Miss DeMille is quoted as saying that Miss Young is one of the finest dramatic dan- cers on the North American continent. Miss Young is a niece of Mrs. H. L. Sherbondy, and has visited in Wingham on differ- ent occasions. The youngster had spent several weeks in kindergarten, and his father asked him how he liked it. "Well, it's okay," the boy replied, "but I'm tired of be- ing teached to play. I want to be teached to learn." You Can Freeze Raw Onions "Yes, you can freeze onions' is the answer the Consumer Section, Canada Department of Agriculture gives to a ques- tion homemakers are frequent- ly asking these days. As com- mercially frozen onions have been appearing in the "conven- ience" frozen food counters recently, the home economists decided to freeze some and test for flavor and texture. Chopped raw onions were packed in plastic bags and put in the freezer for several days. When these were fried in butter they were delicious. In fact they tasted as good as the fresh onions fried at the same time. If the onions are finely chop- ped they may be used in salads. The thawed onions look a little transparent but this is not no- ticeable when they are mixed with other vegetables and dress- ing in a salad. So the busy homemaker or working mother can prepare enough onions for her supper dishes and salads and then freeze them for a month or More. This is a saving of time rather than money since onions store well and are a,ailable the year round at moderate prices.

Pym were guests of the choir. A number of favourite hymns were sung and the bus- iness of the evening followed.

Erskine of Win- nipeg, Man., celebrated her 99th birthday on Monday, Jan- uary 20. She lives with her daughter, Mrs. D. Young, who held open house for family and friends along with her other daughter, Mrs. George Luckhurst. Mrs. Erskine is still quite active and enjoys life to the fullest. Former Home Economist Wed ORILLIA—Mary Nina Isa- belle Gilchrist, former Huron County home economist, and Gary Erwin Thiess, Orillia, were united in marriage during a candlelight ceremony in the Guthrie United Church recently. The Rev. Frank Jennings of- ficiated. The bride, a home econom- ics sewing teacher at the ODCVI, is the daughter of Mrs. John D. Gilchrist, R. R. 2, Oro Station, and the groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Thiess, Orillia. The soloist, Mrs. Alan Thompson, Milton, sang "The Wedding Prayer", "The Lord's Prayer" and "The Wedding Hymn" accompanied at the or- gan by Mrs. Howard Campbell, Shanty Bay. Given in marriage by her brother, J. Douglas Gilchrist, Oakville, the bride wore a dress of Italian brocade, designed and made by herself. It was styled on simple lines with a scoop neckline, lilypoint sleev- es and a bell skirt. A chapel train fell from the waistline. Her headdress, a crown of rhinestones, held an elbow - length veil of silk illusion. She carried a cascade bouquet of white roses with stephanotis and holly. She was attended by her cousin, Mrs, Janet Campbell, Shanty Bay, as maid of honour. Miss Barbara Durst, Clinton, was bridesmaid and Miss Anita Gilchrist, Oakville, a niece of the bride, was junior brides- maid. They were gowned alike in cranberry velvet gowns in a style similar to the bride's gown. They featured scoop necklines, elbow -length sleev- es and bell skirts. Their head- dresses were cranberry tulle held by matching carnations. The three attendants carried nosegays of red carnations and holly on white fut muffs. The best man was Robert A. Hammersley, Greenwood, N. S., and the ushers were John Bertram, Guelph, a cousin of the bride and Brian Shaw, Is- lington, a cousin of the groom. For the reception at the Guthrie Community Hall, the bride's mother received wearing a dark brown and tan h• wade two-piece dress with matching tan accessories and a corsage of yellow orchids. The bride- groom's mother was in a two- piece dress of Dutch blue wool with a matching blue hat with gold scroll work and flowers of white gardenias. For a honeymoon to points south, the bride wore a red and black plain wool dress with a black coat with fox trim. Her accessories were black, and she wore a red carnation cor- sage. The couple will live at 316 Peter St. N. , Orillia. Serve potatoes frequently with their jackets; they are not only attractive, but according to nutritionists at MacDonald Institute, Guelph, many nut- rients, especially vitamin C and iron are in the "peel". Wingham Advance -Times, Thursday, Jan. 30, 1964 -- Page 5 features from The World of Women Our \ational Anthem .. . CBC announcers no longer "sign off' by saying the Nation- al Anthem will now be played. An orchestra plays "God Save The Queen" and "0 Canada" and that's that. By referring to either of them as a National An- them they give official recogni- tion as such, whereas neither has been officially given that status. The CBC appears to be exer- cising a caution not exercised in other government circles, but as every Canadian knows, there is a nation-wide division of opinion concerning our Nation- al Anthem. Many say it is "God Save The Queen," and as many more say it is "OCanada;'. There are even some who con- tend it should be "The Maple Leaf For Ever." Two corrective points should be noted. The first is that a country may have as many national an- thems as it pleases. For more than 100 years the U.S. had three of them, Hail, Columbia, My Country 'Tis Of Thee and Star-Spangled Banner. Not until 1931 did Congress plump for the Banner. The second point is that no law or official ruling on the question is required. It is all a matter of customary usage. No law was ever passed in Canada designating what is our Nation- al Anthem. National anthems are des- cribed by the Encyclopedia Britannica as "the official pat- riotic songs of some countries and used on various national and other festive occasions." They are known as national anthems although the word an- them has a special connotation that is not suited to such songs. $600 COLLECTED IN MARCH OF DIMES Thirty-seven Marching Moth- ers canvassed the town on Mon- day night in the March of Dimes campaign. The March was sponsored by the Kinette Club and each club member had a helper. The town was canvas- sed in two hours. Mrs. Cal Burke was the Chief Marching Mother of the local effort and about $600 was collected. The ladies gathered at the home of Mrs. Al Williams to turn in their money and were served coffee by their hostess. The Kinettes are grateful to non-members who helped and to the contributors. One of the biggest troubles with success these days is that its recipe is about the same as that for a nervous breakdown. Period Furniture Is Winning Favor Homemakers will find that more than ever furniture is de- signed to blend different moods and periods into a harmonious decor. Starting from scratch, replacing worn pieces or adding to present furniture, the shop- ping is made easier because of the variety, adaptability and beauty of new designs. Designers of upholstered fur- niture often hark back to the Victorian age for inspiration this season. Loveseats, sofas and lounge chairs feature the diamond tufting and rich fabrics that were once the symbol of "gentillity" . But the stiff horsehair pieces that once graced front parlors have been modified for modern comfort. Today's cushioning is deep and buoyant. Latex foam rubber is the material fre- quently used, often with a fluf- fy layer of down or polyester fiberfill on top to create the soft, high -crowned profile. Fabrics include rich -hued velvets, antique satins, da- masks, crewel designs and silk - like blends. Many are pre- treated for soil and spot resist- ance. The lush expanded vin- yls are very much in evidence and are particularly easy to keep clean. Colors range from burnished golds to tortoise shell shades such as black pearl and java brown. Reds are much in evi- dence -- sometimes in combin- ation with green and mustard. Oak, that sturdy old -fashion - cd wood, is in the forefront this season. Birch, ash and teak Mr. and Mrs. G. E.'Thiess are also used extensively while walnut is less frequently seen than in former years. Much more attention is be- ing paid to the backs and sides of furniture, which is no longer made to be ranged against the walls. Sofas with exposed wood frames can often be used as room dividers because of their attractive look from any angle. Chairs, too, are handsome in profile with curving arms, carved legs and soaring backs. Most of the lounge chairs have hidden swivels. Many are set on pedestal bases of polished metal. And a great number are accompanied by handsome ottomans. Not all the fall lines are period pieces, of course. Con- temporary styling is much in evidence, but it has more lati- tude than in previous seasons. Many of the modern pieces are •Victorian in shape but with re- cessed bases to lighten the weight of the furniture and make it easier to fit into smal- ler -scaled rooms.
