THE SUMMER SANDWICH
Butter that is creamed before be-
ing spread' on bread for sandwiches
will not tear the slices into unsightly
Pieces. To cream butter, warm it
slightly and work it until creamy'
with a silver fork, pouring off any
liquid that collects in the bottom of
the bowl, For ribbon or mosaic sand-
wiches .this butter is the best to use
because it holds the slices together
well when it Is firm and cold.
For other sandwiches, however, a
butter superior in taste may be made
by creaming in a bowl % of a ooupful
`of butter, then adding, little by little,
2 tablespoonfuls of cream that has
been whipped stiff. Season to taste
with salt and mustard and leave in a
cold place until needed. Kept in the
refrigerator, this butter will be good
for at least two weeks. It spreads
better „than plain butter, is more con-
venient to use, and tastes better in
the sandwiches. • —
.Savory sandwich butters are made
by creaming sweet butter and mixing
with it any of the following ingredi-
ents: curry paste or powder, grated
horseradish, prepared mustard, 'chop-
ped' parsley, celery or onion, anchovy
ot -paste or paprika. The proportion to
be observed is one teaspoonfuls of the
savory to each six tablespoonfuls of
the butter. These are decidedly good
for sandwiches, and especially desir-
able when they are to accompany
salads.

When crusts are to be removed
from the sandwiches, cut them 'from
the loaf before slicing the bread • in
order to make all the sandwiches uni-
form in size and shape. By this meth-
od, too, the surplus bread may be
used In any way desired and the but-
ter and filling will spread a •.large
number of sandwiches. It also ex-
pedites the work to spread the but-
ter and filling on as many slices as
possible before cutting them from the
loaf: Of course, care must be taken.
to match the slices as one goes along
so both will be even in each sand-
wich.
Most fillings will not soak the bread
If both slices are completely covered
with butter before the filling is'
spread on them. If mayonnaise is
used, spread it over the butter. Lay
on the lettuce or slice of tomato or
whatever filling is wanted, then put
on the other slice of bread, butter
side down, and press .firmly together.
Made in this way, such sandwiches
may be put together an- hour or two
before serving time and if they are
kept under a light weight in a cold
place they will be as delicious, and
even more attractive in appearance
than if freshly made.
In using lettuce for sandwiches,
try cutting the large outer leaves in-
to shreds with the scissors and using
them instead.'Ot the whole inner
leaves of the head. These are' much
easier to manage in a sandwich and
have a much more distinctive flavor.
Except for rolled sandwiches, fine-
grained day-old bread is preferable
to fresher bread because it slices
more neatly in thin layers. Two slices
of bread, each of them more- than an
eighth of an inch in thickness, put
together with enough Riling to give
the sandwich a distinctive taste, is
too thick to be eaten comfortably
in company with civilized people. The
old-fashioned thick 'sandwiches with
slabs of meat that had to be wrestled
with, have given way to those of
more genteel appearance and a .chop-
ped interior as a little tribute of re-
spect for the feelings of guests.
Rolled Sandwiches.
For rolled sandwiches, home-made
bread not over six hours from the
oven is best. Older bread. may be
used If the loaf is first wrapped in a
cloth wrung out of hot water, covered
closely with dry cloths and left to
stand several hours or heated through
in the oven.so it is Iike fresh bread.

CANADA FOR BOYS
Besides the increased efforts to'
bring in more British Bottlers which
are being made by the Dominion Gov-
ernment
ov
ernment migration .and colonization
authorities; seine of the provincial
governments are planning increased
activities to attract the much-needed
population to their own areas. This
is, particularly notable in the case of
Alberta, which is considering the re-
appointment of an Agent -General or
special immigration bureau in Britain,
where it has not been directly ofidcial-
ly represented since the war. Al-
•berta's publicity organizations, in-
cluding those associated with the
Canadian Pacific Railway—such as
the Colonization Association, which
has its main headquarters in Winni-
peg and is represented at the C.P.R.
offices in Europe—are making a fea-
ture of the fact that of the present
population of Alberta some 70 per
cent. either own their own farms or
have a definite interest in the land
upon which they live- or work. The
increasing importance of its coal out-
put, the amount of timber it possess-
es and the extent of the water power
which can be harnessed to encourage
manufacture as well as making farm
work easier and transportation. cheap-
erethese are all factors which are be-
ing used to impress those who, though
they may have made up" their minds
to make a fresh start somewhere in
Canada, remain in doubt as to which
particular section ot the big Domini-
on<they shall plant themselves. In-
deed,, Canadians realize more - than
does the everago Britisher how diffi-
cult It.must be for a decision to bo
made: the study Of a really big map
is essential to make it clear that the
Province of Alberta alone contains
twice as many •quare miles as Eng-
land, Scotland and Wales combined,
and as wide as the distance botween
London and Manchester, and as lung
as that Between London and Orkney
Islands. Then the map shows that
the province of Saskatchewan, which
adjoins Alberta on its eastern side, is
almost as big and quite as anxious to
get in more people of British birth,
The same is true of Manitoba, which
separates Ontario from Saskatche-
wan.: The fact that Ontario has been
for so many years getting such a
large proportion of the newcomers
from Britain is, it is thought by many,
to be a considerable extent due to the
fact that Ontario has had for the last
20 years a very active organization
