our fears would . have been many
tines multiplied.
Gradually one country after anoth-
er joined Great Britain. Now the
time has come when !the second front
has been started and we are hourly
awaiting the unconditional surrender
of the first, ,but we must say the
weakest of the axis nations. To all
appearandes there is •still hard
fighting •ahead before Germany and
Japan are conquered. Of one thing
we are sure, that is, that when the
surrender of these conquered nations
does come it will be an unconditional
surrender. Nothing short of that
will be satisfactory. The axis eounr-
ries will accept 'absolutely- the peace
terms as made out by the allied na-
tions. Therewill be no estate for the
leaders of any of these countries
where they may spend, in quietness,
the rest of their days. We can im-
agine standing a just trial and suf-
fering the punishment meted out
to them. A recent writer has antici-
pated this final trial of some of the
leaders but in it the sentence given
them is much lighter than the cruel-
ty these same men have passed out
to those in conquered countries. Time
will tell what will be the result of
all this cruelty.
We cannot imagine how it will be
worked out, in fact it is difficult to
see how human beings, statesmen and
all as they are, can ever straighten it
out. It is to be hoped that God will
be called into the Conference to do
that which man alone can never do.
Many are, prophesying that before
that time Jesus Christ, the Saviour
of the world, will come. We have
the assurance that He will come
again but there is no definite state-
ment that He is coming at this par-
ticular.tinme. We are told that we
know not the day nor the hour when
Fre will come. Our business is to be
ready when He does come. Many
would welcome the coming of the
Prince of Peace.
Unconditional surrender— We say
we will never have to sign any terms
of unconditional •surrender. Let us
hope that as a nation we will never
have to, but whether we believe it
or not the time may not be far away
when we, individually, will have to
do just that very. thing. Otherwise
we will fall into the hands of some -
I one who is a great deal worse than
the fureur of Germany,
Jesus Christ has given us the
Peace terms and nothing else will
satisfy Him. In order to be saved
we must believe on the Lord Jesus
Christ. Nothing else will satisfy
(nim. When we beliave on Him we
must be ready to obey Him
and to try to bring others to Him.
Our surrender to Him can bring only
joy and happiness.
We may think "Yes, I believe on
alio Lord Jesus Christ but I do not
believe He will force me to do things
Ever since the ibegintfing of the
-'Second Great War some country!
.seems to have been faced -With the I
problem of surreiider. In recent,
;months and weeks, this has been very
;marked. At the present time the
talk is of the surrender of Italy. It
!'tray be that before this goes to press
;that surrender will have been made,
Coupled with the talk et surrender
:in at least this instance, is the word
-"unconditional," The allied nations
'will make the terms of peace and
;Italy, Germany and Japan will be
;forced to accept them.
That this will be done soon, before
tthere is much snore blood shed among
the manhood •and womanhool of all
nations, is the sincere wish of those
rconcerned.
In her efforts to keep the world at
:peace Britain went as far as she
ccould in dealing with the cruel -fuerer
,the head of the Nazi party in Ger-
many. As we think over .the peace
talks which were held between Brit-
:-aine France and Germany we can
'well imagine how Hitler and his gen-
erals must have laughed at the lead-
ers of Britain and France as they
left to go back to their separate
auxious countries, earrying their
:signed peaee terms, The fuerer knew
that no matter what supposedly peace
terms were signed he intended to go
aright on forcing one country after
another to surrender to his will.
We recall that his plans carries
tpretty well on schedule until it came
ttime for him to cross the channel.

;nothing else for bad Hitler gone on
'with his plans we would undoubtedly)
note be under German rule as Great
Britain represented. by her little is-
land, had practically nothing with
• which to combat the imrnonse Ger-
Man army and equipment.
Looking back over it now we trem
'hie at the thought of what would.
have taken place had God net inter
iferred as in the last tear, so in this
there have been many things happen
which were nothing short of miracles.
It as without doubt a miracle that,
''Great Britain is not now in the hands
of the Germans as Hitler planned
'the whole world would be, under
iGerman rule, Before that would hap-
pen we can visualize every British
$subject fighting inch by inch And dy-
ing nobly for his and her country.
There would have been no surrender
although the vast majority of people
had little else than clubs of wood
"with which to fight. In all probabil-
ity we would at that time have been
' mown down by the advance of enemy
machine guns.
However the surrender was not on

at his • religion, One of them said
"He has just brought in some bas-
kets of apples to that store. I'll bet
you the big ones ,are at the top and
the small ones - at the bottem". To
prove ithe led the others over to see

that was any excuse for the group of

many are anxious to, get something

and all determine that we will not
give them a chance. Christ must
look on in sorrow at these things.
What a disgrace it is for us to deny
the Saviour who died for us, So many
of us surrender but not uncondition-

We do not need to look at anyone
else. We have no right to judge.
Let us look into our own lives and

of edible foods,
Gelatine (the plain =flavoured
kind) often helps to make left -overs
into good -to -eat salads,. mains dishes,
and desserts. It also extends small
amounts into generous servings, that
aremore attractive than reheated
foods, Keep a covered dish in there-
frigerator and in it put vegetables
and meats ,etc. Don't keep them too
long—even a cupful may be combined
into tasty dish.
Use the following basic recipes and
you'll save many a penny:
Basic Jellied Meat Salad
1 tablespoon -plain gelatine, 1-4
cup cold water, 1 cup hot water, 5
tbsp. mild vinegar, 1-2 teaspoon salt,
1 tbsp. sugar (optional), dash of pep -
pe, 1 tbsp. minced onion, 1-2 eup
left -over vegetable, 1 cup diced meat.
Soften gelatine in cold water and
dissolve in hot water. Add vinegar
salt, sugar and pepper. Cool. When
mixture begins to thicken, fold in
vegetables. Turn into lightly greas-
ed mold and chill in electric refriger-
ator. When firm, =mould on salad
greens and serve with dressing or
whipped sour cream.
Basic Jellied Vegetables
In place of the 1 cup of diced meat,
use 1 1-2 cups diced vegetables.
Other suggestions: 1-2 eup each
cooked peas, diced celery and carrots;,
1-2 cup each shredded raw carrots,
chopped celery and cabbage; 1-2 cup

The Women's Regional. Advisory
Committee, Consumer Branch Wes-
tern Ontario, Wartime Prices and

to this paper regarding price • con-
trol and `ration regulations.
Q.'I was on the public market look-
ing for peaches to preserve on Tues-
day and noticed a difference of ,4c.
per 6 quart No. 1 leno basket. Were
some being sold above the ceiling
price as set by an order this week?
A. Market prices are being watch-
ed closely. Thedifference of four cents
in the price of No. 1 leno baskets is
more than likely due to difference in
transportation charges of the peach-
es. Locally grown peaches have no
transportation charge allowani ,i.
Transportation charges may be add-
ed to the price of peaches transported
more than 13 miles and sold by the
primary producer.

water 1 cup hot water or fruit juice,

ator regularly—when 1-4 inch of
frost has accumulated on the evapor-
ator.
3. Operate the electric refrigerator
at temperature adequate for preser-
vation of food: do not operate too
cold.
4. If leaving home for two or three
days, turn control on refrigerator to
lowest operating point, but not nec-
essarily to defrosting.

gerator; wait until they are cool.

packagos, bottles or cans that may
be stored on pantry shelves. •
7. Clean condenser regularly.
Q. I have several children, under
16. Is it necessary for them to fill
out their own applications for No. 3
Ration Books and present them?
A. It is not necessary for a child
under 16 to fill out his own applica-
tion -card and present It for a new
book. This may be done by his par-
ent or guardian. However, if the
parent fills out the application card
it is necessary for him to sign his
own name as well as that of the
child.

will be in London when the new ration
books are issued. What do I have to

be able to secure same • for the in-
stallation of conveniences in the form
of bathrooms, etc?
A. No. While a few more pumps
may be available for 1944, it still
appears that we will not have any
more than enough to take care of the
essential needs, such as the watering
of livestock, milk coling ete.

THE ODE

First you gave us castor oil, !
Then you got us into this broil,
So pack your suitcase pull in your

Silhouettes make striking pictures because of the vigorous contrast—
"the strongest shadow "against the strongest highlight."
SILHOUI•ITTLS make strong• and
17 vigorous pictures. They are dra-
matic because the heavy blacks
against a lighter background catch
and hold the eye. But no form of
pictorial photography is easier to
master, and few give as satisfactory
results in as short a time.
If you want to prove this to your
own satisfaction, try making a sil-
houette at home tonight. Here's how
you can do it. Stretch a sheet or
large tablecloth =rose any doorway
in the house. On the far side of the
sheet place ,a.150- or 200 -watt light
bulb, In an ordinary cardboard photo
reflector, and direct it onto the sheet.
Then place your subject, in profile,
a couple of feet in front of the illu-
minated background. Ask him to
hold absolutely still, turn out all
lights on your side of the doorway,
and give an exposure of one or two
seconds. The result will be a perfect
silhouette that you can cut out and;
mount just like one made with
shears and paper.
Outdoor silhouettes, on the other
hand, are just as easy to make,
Adopt a low camera position. Prefer-
ably place your subject on a slight
rise or hillock, and shoot from lower
ground. Have the Iow sun beyond
or behind your subject, And under-
expose the scene, in general by using
a smaller lens opening or a higher
shutter speed than normal. For suck
outdoor scenes, particularly 11 they
are made late in the afternoon, ex-
posures of 1/100 second at 1/16, or
1/25 second at 1/32 usually give the
effect desired.
Our illustration shows just how to
place your subject, but you won't
run into any trouble if you remem-
ber to place the'btrongeet shadow
against the strongest highlight.
That's the way all outdoor silhou-
ettes are made, and it's a method
that never: fails.
