Gifts Presented To Rev. and Mrs. Hawtin Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Statham, Wonham street, opened their home' on Thursday evening to a large gathering of friends and acquaint­ ances of Rev. and Mrs. Philip H. Hawtin^ who hgye been pastors ot the Tabernacle congregation, and to express th*r best wishes and fare* wel).

Home care of fabrics to lengthen their wearing life in this emergency period when materials are more and more restricted, will be the import­ ant and timely theme of a series of illustrated lectures to be delivered this week and next in Ingersoll by Miss Joan Reany of Lever Brothers’ Educational Bureau, Toronto. Miss Reany’s schedule of lectures includes the Women’s Guild of St. James’ Anglican Church, the Avalon Chap­ ter of the Eastern Star, the pupils of Ingersoll High School, the West Ox­ ford Women’s Institute, the Wom­ en’s Association of Trinity United Church, and the Catholic Women’s League. Commenting on the interest which retailers- are taking in this type of an educational program for their staffs, Miss Reany says that they are responding magnificently to Govern­ ment requests for fabric conserva- ation and she frequently receives re­ quests to lecture to store personnel. “It is a real protection to the con­ sumer to walk into a store and re­ ceive authentic information from the girls behind the counters. Then too, she states, “I should imagine that with the growing shortages of help, stores find it takes less time and selling effort on the part of in­ dividual sales clerks if they can give authoritative information on the article they sell.” With the aid of a micro-projector and a series of slides showing greatly magnified fibres, Miss Reany demon- 1 strates how various fabrics are sub- i ject to damage and strain .and how ■ the different filament compositions| and woven patterns of each type o f' material requires individual, care to preserve strength and appearance. In the last twenty months Miss Reany and her associates on the Lever Educational Bureau staff, have lectured to over- 18,000 women in Ontario, Quebec and Manitoba.

A number of members will assist in this important project. An article was read by Mrs. Mac- Bain which explained how the people of Great Britain, in the middle of the greatest war in history, and with­ in little more than 20 miles of en­ emy bases, have found time to look ahead and plan for the better edu­ cation of future generations. New and good used clothing is still needed for Polish Relief and donated articles may be left at Bax­ ter’s store. The following knitted articles were brought in: 5 children’s sweaters, 2 adult sweaters, 19 pairs men's socks, 1 pair child’s socks, 4 baby’s complete knitted outfits 1 pair gloves, 6 hel­ mets, 1 boy’s complete knitted out­ fit, 1 pair men’s mitts.

NORSWORTHY CHAPTER The first meeting for the fall sea­ son of the Norsworthy Chapter, I.O.D.E., was held last week at the from the crew expressing their ap- I preciation of the work done on I their behalf to date. Plans*for spec- l ini Christmas remembrances for the boys are under way. 1 A committee was appointed to arrange for Christmas gifts to be ' sent to the families of the Chapter j members serving with the armed ; forces overseas. • Mrs. Yule, War .Service Con- ; vener, presented her report of the work completed during the summer months as follows; To I.O.D.E. headquarters —17 quilts, large; 1 quilt, single bed; 8 quilts, children; 3 afghans, 1 shawl, 1 jerkin, 9 navy outfits, 4 layettes, 9 hospital gowns, 17 chil­ dren’s dresses, (size 6); 18 child­ ren’s aprons, (size 6,) 6 articles for Polish Relief. To Red Cross—2 nightgowns, 3 pairs panties, 1 jumper dress, 5 shirts, 1 jumper, 2 blouses, 2 slips, 2 pan tin dresses. Mrs. Yule preceded her report by making an emphatic appeal to the members for their co-operation. She stated there is a tremendous amount of work to be done and this cannot be accomplished unless more help is forthcoming immediately. The Chapter was asked to assist with the annual tag day for the National Institute for the Blind to ‘ be held Saturday, Sept 25th. Sev­ eral ladies volunteered their services on this date. Miss McNaughton briefly told of some incidents indica­ ting the success and prayers of this work. It was unanimously decided by the meeting to forego the holding of the Lucky Number Tea this fall. Instead of raising money by this means, each member is to be asked for a donation. “Thinking of Ourselves as Canad­ ians”, an article by E. C. Smith, was read by Mrs. C. L. Bole as the topic, for this month.

Tomatoes are •ur aecond-be.it source of Vitamin C (Absorbic Acid), which we must have in adequate quantity in our daily diet to keep the mouth and rums in good condition and aid in building sound bones, teeth and blood vessels. Citrus fruits—oranges, lemons, grapefruit, tangerines, are the best. In case supplies of these may be curtailed we who live out­ side the citrus belt should eat raw tomatoes and juice generously, and can all the surplus home-grown and market-bought tomatoes possible. Then we will have an inexpensive source of Vitamin C for the winter and spring months. It Is likely that commercially canned tomatoes and tomato juice will be available for those unable to can at home. Luckily, tomatoes and tomato juice are easier to “put down” than most products. Although some Vita­ min C is lost in home canning, the following methods will prevent the loss of the least number of Vitamin C units. RECIPES Canned Whole Tomatoes Wash the tomatoes in cool water. Scald a few tomatoes at a time to loosen the akin*. Remove the con*-4aa ped eore and any green portionsof each tomato and slip off th* skins.Remove the small black spot at theblossom ends. Cut the tomatoes intoquarters *r leave then whole, andpack them into the containers. Pressthem down just hard enough to form enough juice to fill the space* and cover the solids. Fill containers to within U inch from the top, adding 1 teaspoonful of salt to each quart of tomatoes. Add no water, seal all jars completely, then loosen % inch. Process in a boiling water bath (pint jars 35 minutes; quart jars 45 minutes). If tomatoes are heated and packed boiling hot, process them 10 minutes. Tomato Joie* Wash, trim and quarter the to­ matoes, but do not peel them. Put the pieces into a pen, crush them slightly to set free enough juice to start the cooking. Cover the kettle, and simmer the fruit gently until tomatoes are soft but not mushy. Force the pulp while hot through a sieve or colander which is fine enough to remove the seeds. Bring the strained tomato juice just to the boiling point Transfer the boiling hot juice to the hot fruit jars or bottles. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to each quart of tomato juice and from 1 to 3 teaspoonfuls of sugar, if de­ sired. Seal the jars or cap the bottles and process them in a boil­ ing water bath for ten minutes. Canned Tomato Soup 1 peck ripe tomatoes, 6 large on­ ions, 1-2 cup sugar, 1-2 cup butter, 1 large head celery, 3-4 cup flour, 1-4 cup aalt, 1-4 teaspoon cayennepepperWash tomatoes, eut in pieces, addonions and celery washed and cutBoil these until very soft. Pres*through a sieve. Put again on thestove and add sugar, salt, butter,flour and cayenne pepper. Melt but­ ter, add flour, sugar, salt, and pep­ per. When blended, slowly mix with the strained tomato. Heat to boiling and let took until thickened. Pour into sterilized jars and seal, and sterilize 10 minutes. Chili Saac* 1 6-qt, basket tomatoes, 8 onions, (chopped), 4 green peppers (chop­ ped), 2 cups cider vinegar, 2 table­ spoons salt, 2 cups com syrup, 4 tablespoons mixed pickling spices (tied in a bag.) Ped the tomatoes and cut in pieces. Chop onions and peppers. Put in large preserving kettle. Cook slowly, uncovered, .for 3 hours or until thick. Pour into sterile jars and seal at once.

Stor­ age of the garden produce in the home can be relatively easy if a few simple rules are carefully fol­ lowed. For a storage room—any part of the cellar with a window leading directly outside may be used. If you have a concrete floor, cover it .with sand and sprinkle water occasion­ ally to maintain the proper mois­ ture content of the air. This room will need walls that are well insulat­ ed and a well fitted door to pro­ vide an even temperature. Contain­ ers for the vegetables should be con­ structed against the outside walls and have slatted sides and bottom to provide for ventilation. Whitewash used on the walls makes for a sanitary room and an­ nually a solution of approximately % lb. of copper sulphate to 1 gal­ lon of water can be used as a clean­ ser and disinfectant. Of course you will need a good thermometer. You must take great care in grad­ ing and sorting the garden produce if you want to eliminate decay. The fruits and vegetables should be fully mature, dean and dry, free from damage caused by insects, disease, rough handling, freeing and chill­ ing. During the winter you must sort the produce regularly and re­ move any defective specimens as they will contaminate the sound stock. - ■ • — - Root produce such as beets, car­ rots, parsnips, salsify, turnips keep best at 33-38’ F and in sand.

National Lib­ eral Federation, discontinued its main operations and there were no activities in connection with this body’s office in the nation's capital as well as its monthly bulletin. This was not an unusual course to fol­ low for any political party, particu­ larly in wartime. However, polit­ ical events have been moving at a quick pace lately and five reasons have presented themselves for a change of attitude. First, the other political parties, notably the Pro­ gressive-Conservatives and the C.C. F., have been intensifying their pol­ itical activities to a great extent. Second, the Liberal Party has suf­ fered some severe setbacks, in the latest tests of public opinion in var­ ious sections of the nation. Third, there have been signs of sharp dis­ content or trouble within the Liberal Party itself and these have been seen inside as well as outside of the House of Commons. Fourth, there has been no meeting of the National Liberal Federation since the beginn­ ing of World War II. Fifth, regard­ less when the next general election will take place, there must be made in advance certain preparations within this political organization for such a national test. Therefore, im­ portant meetings have been sum­ moned in Ottawa in order to revive the political organizaion and func­ tions of the Liberal Party itself for the five reasons mentioned as well as for the purpose of hearing the opinions of the rank and file on numerous problems. COLD FACTS The authorities in Ottawa have been giving warnings that house­ holders and others should prepare themselves property in advance in regard to fuel supplies for the com­ ing winter and the information available along Parliament Hill <ha» indicated clearly and emphatically that this advice must be taken ser­ iously since the coal situation in Canada has been in a position of de­ creasing supplies and the increasing needs on the domestic scene for some time. When the latest coal production figures were examined, these disclosed that by July 1, 1943, there were 24,389 men working in coal mining in Canada as against 25.655 men on the same date a year ago, that is in 1942 with the whole to/inage produced falling down about 9 per cent in that lime. There has been also a sharp reduction in the amount of coal availably for consumption in Canada, judging by the amount of coal ‘ produced here as well as imported and the quan­ tity ‘which has to be exported. In­ deed, in the first seven months per­ iod of this year, this decrease has involved 800,000 top,*. Then again, another important indication of the coal situation in Canada has been the rise in the amount of coal iin- ba r r isTer s PATERSON, S(tAr T and MAR­ SHALL, Barriatezs and Solicitors.

PARLIAMENT AND EMERGENCY From time to time, reports have indicated that Parliament in Ottawa might be called back if any emer­ gency should arise either connected with events in the war or in domes­ tic affairs. This is correct since on July 24, 1943, when Parliament ended its session which started on January 28, 1943, and sat back for 119 days this fourth session of the 19th Parliament was adjourned by Deputy Speaker Joseph Bradette on the motion of Prime Minister Mac­ kenzie King. It wa not prorouged. In other words Canada’s Parliament can be summoped back quickly and suddenly at any time if any emer­ gency should warrant such action on the part of the King Government for any cause arising in connection with developments in the war or otherwise either inside or outside of Canada. RAPID EXPANSION The extremely rapid pace at which Canada is moving now in its war programme is emphasized in the dis­ closure that, while last year this country’s shipyards produced about 850,000 tons of merchant shipping in addition to two or three hundred smaller naval craft, yet it has been estimated that in 1943 this country would produce close to one and a half million tons of ships, with a proportional increase in the actual expenditures for war purposes. In fact, Canada’s vast programme of aid to her Allies, together with her unprecedented huge expenditures in this war in tune with the great ex­ pansion of her effort, can be ob­ served in the rise of her war costs from about $350,000,000 in the first twelve months of this war to more than four billions of dollars a year at the present time. GOOD NEIGHBOUR POLICY Ever since President Franklin D. Roosevelt paid - his historic visit to Ottawa, gossip along Parliament Hill has indicated that the ‘‘good neigh­ bour policy” of the President of the United States will grow in import­ ance and interest in Canada, partic­ ularly as it may affect this country's relations with the Latin American nations to the South. In other words, Canada has not played a properly active role, it is claimed, in the Pan- American Union, but it has been taking a deeper interest in Pan-Am­ ericanism throughout ths war, with the result that this slowly changing attitude may prodpee new develop­ ments, including a great expansion of trade with these Latin* American countries when this war will end. Indeed, trade traffic with these nations may possibly open up much sooner at the end of the war than with European countries more dir­ ectly affected by this w4r's actual fighting. These considerations as well as other factors- have caused the continuous growth of a policy of exchanging diplomats* between Ot­ tawa and the other capitals of this continent, starting with Canadian ■Ministers being sent first to frazil, Argentina and Chile in the persons of Jean Desy, Hon. Justice Turgeon, and Warwick Chipman, with other appointments expected to follow in due course and other expansions be­ lieved in the making in the increas­ ing function of the Department of External Affairs in Ottawa whose head is J’rime Minister Mackenzie King himself.—r4Reprodtiction Pro­ hibited.) y ■ EBENEZfcR Mr. Grant Gill ha« returned toLondon where he will continue his studies al Central Collegiate.Mr. and Mrs. Henrjf Morris spentSunday witji Mr. and Mrs. Henry Eyres, at Belmont.Miss Mary-Pickard bf St. Thomas, visited with Kathleen Holmes on Sat­urday.Mr. and ’ Mrs- Gordon Haycock ’were Sunday guests with Mr. andMrs. Alfred Groves df Salford.Mr. Ed.

Lights were glowing in windows. Geared to much hush-hush war re­ search this outfit gets little publicity these days but those who know say a very tremendously important job is being done within those grey walls, and much of it by young men and women who grew up in rural areas. Only some of the results attained are given out, about things which will affect our post-war living. For instance, in connection with Irish moss (sea-weed) a processing pro­ cedure has been developed producing odorless, tasteless, light colored pre­ paration giving a strong jelly in can­ ning. Several million pounds of Irish moss is harvested on the east coast annually. In drying pork they found ways of getting an excellent product retaining 75% of the natural Bl vitamin content after cooking and drying Astounding things they have evolved in aircraft production, leather substitutes, plastics, too. Ration book distribution is about over completely. It was the largest single printing order ever placed in Canada. Proper precautions had to be taken in connection with proper dyes, designs, on account of possible counterfeiting, etc. .... each month an average of 5000 Canadians lose their ration books ... 48 million coupons are handled each week by merchants, wholesalers and banks.' The |new -ration allowance for jams, "jellies, etc., and new regula­ tions pertaining, are really import­ ant concessions to the rural people of Canada, who for the most part do their own preserving. As country stores were rarely well stocked with these commodities—of recent years there was a cry of “inequality'* and probably with justification. The new order means, in effect, sugar for the folks out there for their fall apple sauce and more particularly sugar with which to sweeten preserves which they put up earlier without sugar. ; HORNE'S ■• PreparedI Green A Yellow ,/PEA SOUP- j 2 19f • MAPLE LEAF CAKEFLOUR 9c 24c PICKLING ANDPRESERVING SUPPLIESJARS • Nrf-JM- 1.05 JARS • 1*39 «>•«■ 25c 5< *-*• 14< 12*%-ib. ise ZINC RINGSRUBBERS -CHILLIES * TURMERICCelery SeedMustard Seed ■*-»- 1(NWHOLE MIXEDPickling Spice 19* BULK BLENDED er SPIRIT (No*.

In 1942, the third year of the war, the number of wage earners in Canada reached the highest peak in all our history. Tjjere were about 60 per cent more wage earners in ‘ 1942 than there were in 1917, the! third year of the last war. The higher number of workers no doubt accounts, in part at least, for the' fact that in 1942 there were 113,- 916 workers involved in strikes as1 against only 50,255 workers in 1917.! However, in measuring the effects 1 of strikes upon production the im-l portant thing is not so much the number of men involved as the num­ ber of man-days of labor lost to the the nation's productive effort In 1942 there were more than twice as many men on strike as in 1917. But ' the actual man-days lost was consid­ erably less than one-half—the man- days lost in 1917 being 1,123,515 as against 450,202 man-days in 1942. From these figures it is seen that in 1917 the average time each man remained out on strike was 22 days, whereas in 1942 the ^average for each man amounted to slightly less than 4 days. While it is not possible accurately to determine all the factors leading.up to this very great reduction in 1 manpower lost there can be no doubt that much of it has been due to the improved machinery set up I in recent years by the Labor De-1 partment for the speedier handling of industrial disputes, FOLDEN’S CORNERS I Bill Budd of Toronto and MissBetty Budd of Hickson, spent theweek-end at their home here.

D HOWF, Minister conjunction with the Auxiliary War Services of the Federal Govern­ ment and the National Film Board, has produced a number of short films which are of national interest to the women of Canada. Three o f '■ these films were shown last Thurs , day evening to an enthusiastic and' • appreciative .audience at Trinity - United Church Sunday School hall. ’ The' first of the films, which were shown by Mr, W. E. Brown, Lon­ don representative of the B. A, Oil Company, was “We Sail, at Mid­ night.” The- picture- - told a graphic story of a cofivoy, its battle with an enemy submarine and.the triumphant arrival at a Scottish port. “Make it Over", was an inter­ esting and practical demonstration of ope of the tasks that is'confront- in'g Canadian women—that of re­ making and re-modeling old cloth­ ing. The last picture was one that was cheering and ‘ encouraging, es­ pecially to those who have boys overseas. “The Freedom of Aber- feldy,” portrayed the way in which the people of a small town in the highlands of Scotland' took into their homes a group of young Canadians, showing them the finest of hospital­ ity and friendship. The British American Oil Com­ pany have other films and - it is hoped that they too will be shown here shortly.
