BANNERS FLYING
BY MARY RAYMOND
THE STORY: Christie Colton,
who has promised Bart Sander-
son, her fiance, that she will give
up flying, is forced to break the
promise to fly a seriously injured
young man to a hospital in the
next town. Previous to the flight:
she has attended a committee
meeting for a China Relief ball,
rivet Sandra Rydall, a new girl in
town, and had a "scene" with her
in which Sandra says they are
"natural enemies" because they
care for the same man.

WAR—AND A PARTY
CHAPTER V
It was while the young man
was in the operating room that
Christie remembered about Bart,
and waiting on a doorstep. It was
1.30 now.
Bart's Voice, when she reached
him by phone, sounded almost an-
gry, hurt and immensely relieved.
"Where in the world are you,
Christie?"
"At the Lakeville Hospital.
Some poor fellow had an accident
and I had to bring him here. It
was a real emergency, Bart."
"Good heavens!" Bart exclaim-
ed. "You drove him over?"
"No. It had to be quicker than
that. I brought him here in a
plane." There was a long silence
at the other end.
"Bart;" Christie pleaded, "sure-
ly you aren't angry. I didn't for-
get my promise. It was something
I had to do."
"I'm not angry, Christie. I'm
frightened. There's a lucky star
over you, darling, but promise me
you won't fly the plane back."
"I won't, Bart. I'm taking the
strain, but there isn't one to West-
wood for several hours."
"I know." Bart's voice was so-
ber. "And my train pulls out in
an hour."
"Oh, Bart, you'll write you'll
be back soon."
"I was just thinking how darn
unsatisfactory letters are. Darl-
ing, it was pretty wonderful what
you did. I'm proud as the devil.
You won't do it again, though.
The kind of luck you have—it
might play out, Christie."
"It's the very last time, Bart."
When the phone clicked in place
Christie joined the group of people
on the sun porch. Every now and
then, a nurse would come to the
door and signal to some anxious
relative or friend, who would
hurry away.
"And that poor fellow has only
me," Christie thought soberly. She
would stay here until nearly train
time. She must know how the
stranger stood the operation.
It was around 3 when a nurse
motioned to Christie. Christie got
up and joined her in the corridor.
"Your friend is going to be all
right," the nurse said. "It was
a good thing those doctors in
Westwood got hien here so quick-
ly, and it was lucky you happened
to know how to handle a plane.
Well, I guess you know how for-
tunate you are." She was beam-
ing.
eam-
in "He'll be all right, now? Oh,
Pm so glad!"
"Right as can be. I'm really
happy for you."
"I suppose you know I never
saw him in my life until they
brought him to the airport." '
"He had a few rational mo-
ments," the nurse replied, stiffly.
"And once he asked for you."
"There's some mistake," Chris-
tie insisted. "He is a stranger to
me."
"I'ni sorry, Miss Colton," the
nurse said, turning to go.
It was not until Christie was on
her way to the train that she re-
membered she had failed to find

out the young mans name. And.
—this was strange--tbe nurse had
known her name. Maybe Bill
Blake had phoned the hospital
after she left.
Jan was driving up as Christie's
taxi turned in the gateway. She
waited until Christie had paid the
driver and then asked: "Why the
taxi? Did you have car trouble?"
Christie shook her head. She
told Jan the story. While she was
talking, she had the feeling that
Jan was away ahead of her. There
was something odd about Jan's
expression. She looked excited,
but not amazed.
"The man you took to Lakeville.
was Stephen Marston," Jan said,
"Stephen! Not really_."
"Yes. He was in the Wain-
wrights' car, and Mr. Wainwright
was driving. They had an accident,
and Mr. Wainwright felt respon'
sible when Stephen was injured.
He arranged for the operation in
Lakeville. Betty Wainwright said
sending him over by plane prob-
ably saved his life. Of course, I
didn't know you flew the plane."
"Well!" Christie exclaimed, "so
my young man of mystery was.
Stephen! That's why he thought
he knew me. All the time he
thought I was you."
"Did he?" Jan asked softly.
"Oh, I wish it had been."
Conversation wa.s changing. In
Westwood, it night start with,
parties, the forthcoming spring
and summer' dances, but it was
certain to end up with the query:
"Will there be enough stags?"

away.

Christie was busy with a dozen
activities. There was the Chinese
ball, which had been a wonderful
success—and where she•had care-
fully avoided being thrown with
Sandra; there was her Red Cross
work; the times she sold British
emblems at benefit teas. When
army maneuvers brought streams
of khaki -clad boys and trucks
through town she had served cof-
fee and cookies at the station.
Everybody else was doing these .
things, too. Everybody except her
mother, who still refused to be-
Iieve what she read and heard.
"Things are so different now,"
Mrs. Colton sighed. "I wanted to
give Jan a nice party, but all
the boys she knows have been
drafted,"
"Seems to me there are a lot
of nice boys at the flying field.
Get some of these new boys," her
husband looked up, impatiently,
from his paper.
"You can't draft :nen for
dances as you do for the army,"
Mn. Colton answered, irritably.
Christie had entered the room.
The friction between her mother
and father distressed her. Hera
was a small war, she thought, be-
ing waged daily by people who
loved each other. These petty
battles made you understand how
real antagonism between nations
could drive peace from the world.
# 5 *
She was feeling saber. Bart
was convinced that the United
States would be drawn into the
war, and she was sure Bart knew
what he was talking about. Then,
Tommy had joined up.
Summer went by. A golden
autumn merged into a wintry
siege of snow and rain. There
were few parties, and these were
small and informal. Mrs. Colton
had flu and went aff to Florida.
to shake' it off. When she return-.
ed she looked radiant and ,well.
Florida had been gay and crowd-
ed. She was sure Westwood was
the only place..in the country with
such a dreary outlook. One thing
she knew, the town needed a big
party to lift it out of the dol.
drums.
She was going right ahead, she
told the fancily, with her plans
for Jan's ball.
Busy days followed. Talks with
caterers, plans for decorations,.
Two stenographers, pulled away
from work at Mr. Colton's office,
checked lists and addressed en-
velopes endlessly. Great stacks
went out for mailing.
"Christie, it's going to be beau-
tiful," Mrs. Colton said one day.
She was standing in the doorway
of the ballroom, "Can you imag-
ine this room completely trans
formed into a white winter scene,
with a forest of trees covered
with snow and jeweled with blue
lights."
"Add some red, and you'll have
a patriotic scheme," Christie said
slowly.
"You sound like your father.
Honestly, I believe you have red,
white, and blue stripes running
up and down your spine,"
The radio was on in the music
room. As Christie passed the door
the voice of an excited announcer
reached her. Then, the awful in -
port of the words she had heard
sent her flying back to the ball-
room.
"Mother, you'll have to call the
party off. Pearl Harbor has been
bombed."
"Pearl Harbor!" Mrs. Colton's
voice was startled, "How terrible,
Christie, But I can't sae that it
has anything to do with Jan's

Soups
Sometimes it seems unnecessary
to give recipes for soups now that
canned soups have been perfect.,
ed. It is so easy to open a can of
soup and have ready a steaming
hot dish of soup almost before you
assemble the •ingredients to make
a pot of your own recipe.
It is possible to make variationa
of the standard, type of canned
soups by combining a couple of
cans of different varieties. I like
for instance to mix green pea with
tomato and chicken and rice with
mushroom; cream of mushroom
with tomato, etc.
As true patriots we have been
asked not to use canned goods
whenever we can possibly do with-
out, but in cases of emergency
I am giving you these recipes.
Cream of Corn Soup
1 medium-sized onion
1 can corn cream style
3 cups water
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/s teaspoon pepper
3 cups milk
Finely chopped parsley
Dash of paprika.
If the canned corn is your
canning use a pint jar.
Combine the chopped onion,
corn and water. Cover and cook
gently for 20 minutes. Press
through a coarse sieve. Melt but-
ter and add flour mixing well.
Then add salt and pepper. Stir
and cook until thick. Add the
corn mixture and reheat well.
Sprinkle each serving with chop-
ped parsley and paprika. Makes
6 servings.
Cream of Pea and Carrot Soup
1 cup sliced carrots
1 cup canned peas (maybe
leftovers)
1 thick slice onion
2 cups boiling water
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons flour
3 cups milk
1 teaspoon salt
'/s teaspoon Tepper
Combine the carrots and onion
with the boiling water and cook
for ten minutes covered. Add the
peas and cook five minutes longer.
Press through a sieve. Melt the
butter and blend in the flour;
add milk and carrot mixture. Cook
stirring constantly until thick.
Season to taste. Serve with a
garnish of a few carrot slices and
a few peas, that you may have
reserved. Serves 6.
Some reminders, the leftover
vegetables along with the water
In which they are cooked, is a
splendid foundation for creamed
soups. Soups are one of the easi-
est ways in cooking to present
milk to your zanily.
Mongol Soup
/ cup split peas
6 cups boiling water
2 teaspoons chopped onion
3h cup celery tops
11/1. cups canned tomatoes
3A cup finely chopped cabbage
1/2 cup sliced carrots
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
Soak peas over night; drain.
Add two cups water, onion and
celery and simmer covered for
two hours or until peas are ten-
der. Add tomatoes and cook for
ten minutes. Press through a
sieve. Cook cabbage and carrots
in 3 cups water until tender, 30
minutes. Combine with first mix-
ture. M4lelt butter and blend in
the flour. Add the hot vegetable
mixture. Cook five minutes stir-
ring frequently. Serves 6.

Manufacture in Canada of four
of the most useful and modern of

United Nations has become an out-

munitions program, it was learned
recently.
While the production of aircraft
in Canada has never been great in
comparison with output of the
United Kingdom and United States
..and may not even be great dur-
ing this conflict—present prepare
ations are for production of ma-
chines which are not expected to
be obsolete for a long time.
The program now approaching'
the assembly -line basis calls for
production of Lancaster bombers,

In England and Wales there is
one acre of land per person as
against two acres in Germany, 20
in America and 30 in Russia.
A British plan for requisition-

COOKIES CLICK WITH THE ARMY
By BARBARA B. BROOKS
With the conga chasers and the rhumba writhers, as well as
more serious minded youth, doing their steps in the Army, mothers
begin to wonder what the boys are eating. Thanks to the advances
of nutrition, the Army doesn't leave them a thing to worry about.
The soldier sons are getting all the calories they need, and the entire
menu is worked out to supply the necessary minerals, vitamins and
other food essentials.
Packages from home, however, will always get a big hand from
the boys in camp, for no Army cook has either the time or the ine
clination to cook tidbits for each one's fancy. So, mothers, start
rolling out the dough, and begin cutting the cookies. Those old-
fashioned cookies are the best package -fillers anyone ever thought
up to send to a man away from home.
Baked in the home oven, there is nothing more satisfying for
a soldier to sink his teeth into than a rich, nut -filled cookie. Or, if
it's candy that's wanted, Toffee Squares will turn the trick,

If you cannot get Crown Brand Syrup from your favourite' grocer
now and then, here is the reason. Because "Crown Brand" in
addition to its other uses is being very generally used to help
supplement the supply of sugar in Canadian Homes, the demand
has increased tremendously.
Though there has been a much greater amount
of Crown Brand syrup produced this year, even
this increased supply cannot cope with the shortage
of millions of pounds of sugar.
Don't hoard... buy normally.., we are making
every effort to supply the increased demand, and
your grocer will do his best to fill your needs.
