In the announcement of contracts awarded last week, there was one awarded to Hillâ€"Clarkâ€"FPrancis of New Liskeard, Timmins, Noranda, etc., for the erection of buildings for the RCAF, at Trenton. The work is to be done in thrse months or less. The firm has several other war contracts, one for $500,000 for buildings at Hamâ€" iiton for war purposes. Sautcéed Fish (panâ€"fried) 6 small fish or 1‘% pounds fish fillets Flour, cornmeal or fine, dry crumbs Halt, pepper 2 tablespoons melted fat. Wash fish thoraughly and wipe with aamp cloth. Roll in seasoned flour, cornmeal or crumbs. Melt butter or bacon fat, or heat salad oil in a heavy frying pan and saute fish until brown on one side, then turn with a pancake turner and brown on the other sigce. Allow eight to ten minutes for cookâ€" ing. Serve on hot platter with parsley butter or tartar sauce. (Released by The Bell Syndicate. Inc.) Northern Firm Awarded Further â€"War Contracts Poached Fish (Boiled Fish) 2 tablespoons butter ; cup chopped celery % cup chopped carrot 4 cup chopped onion 4 peppercorns 2 cloves 1 bay leaf 2 tablespoons salt 2 tablespoons vinegar 2 quarts water 2 pounds fish. ‘_Melt butter, add vegetables and cook one minute. Add peppercorns, cloves, bay leaf, salt, vinegar and water, covâ€" er, and bring to boiling point. Boil fifteen minutes, Wash fish and wipe with damp cloth. Tie fish in cheeseâ€" cloth or parchment paper, and plunge into water. Bring again to boiling ang simmer 20 to 25 minutes, until fish flakes when tried with a fork. Reâ€" move from <clheesecloth or parchment paper and drain. Serve on hot platâ€" ter â€"with â€"egg sauce or Hollandaise sauce, f For sauteing, dsep fat frying or broiling, fillets may be a â€"good choice. For poaching and serving with a sauce either fillets or large steaks may be selected.â€"When fish is broiled, it should always be brushed with salzad oil, When it is to be sauteed, it may be dipped in flour or corn meal. Whatever method you choose, be sure that your cooking is done at the last moment. Fish objects to waiting in the warming oven. There is no reason why cod or hsiâ€" dock fillets should be ordered every week when we can choose small smelts from Newfoundland, salmon steak from the West Coast, shrimps and §Spanish â€" macherel from the Guilf, whitefish from the Great Lakes, when a varied> supply is available in the market. Then there are salmon, tuna, crabmeat and shrimps in canned form. In English Hearts (By Edith M. Barber) and arthritis will receiv> many helpâ€" ful suggestlions by sending Ten Cor.ts for Dr. Barton‘s booklet entitied ‘Chronic Rheumatism and Arthritis‘ Serious attacks of painful and swolâ€" len joints and musclesâ€"arthritisâ€"may follow operation for removal of tonâ€" sils in patients with a high sedimentaâ€" tion rate although the patient may not be suffering with rheumatic symptoms to any sxtent. In addition to the joint and muscle symptoms, heart and bloodâ€" vessel complications may also folior operation when the sedimentation ra‘e Because, then, of the relation beâ€" tween high sedimentation rates and active infection, Dr. Bertani belioves that tonsils shoulq not be removed when the patient is undergoing an atâ€" tack of rheumatism unless all other methods of treatm>nt have failed. until the sedimentation rate becomes lower or slower before removing inâ€" fected tonsils, shock and other reacâ€" tions may be avoided. An interesting fact brought out by the tests was that patients who showâ€" ed a low or slow sedimentation rate before operation showed a low sediâ€" mentation rate after operation and vice versa. , Observations made in 11 cases showâ€" ing a high sedimentation rate before operation signified a high degree of reabsorption of poisons. By waiting Dr. Bertant points out that if the patient is receiving enough salicylic acid (aspirin) to contract the rheuâ€" matic symptoms and keep temperature down to normal, he should not be conâ€" sidered in fair or proper condition to take the sedimentation test. _In order to make the removal of inâ€" fected .tonsils "safe" in rheumatic patients, Dr. G. Costa Bertani, Buenos Airss in Argenfine Review of Rheuâ€" matism advises that the degree of acâ€" ‘tive infection shoulg be measured by sedimentation tests before takes place. The sedimentation test is where a quantity of the patient‘s blood is put in a glass jar and the time taken for the red corpuscles in the blood to sink to the bottom of the jar, is measured. If the infection is very active, the rate is high or rapid and if infection is not very active, it takes a much longer time for the red corâ€" puscles to reach the bottom of the jar. In several cases where the sedim:ntaâ€" tion was high or rapid, the extraction of a tooth increased the sedimentaâ€" tion rate, thus showing a clear conâ€" nection between infection and a hizh rate of sedimentation. Preventing Serious After Effects of Removal of Tonsils _Most physicians are of the opinic: that where there are repeated attacks of: rheumatism, infected tonsils should be removed. The question arises, howâ€" cver, ‘as to whether the tonsils should be reéemoved when the patient is not completely recovered from his rh:uâ€" matic attack because a number of cases have been reported where the removal of infected tonsils in these cases caused complications after operâ€" ation and sometimes a severe attack of rheumatism. é In the past 70 days, the Red Cross in England has released such stagâ€" gering quantities of woollen comforts, relief clothing and surgical supplies, that the Overseas office has stated thatâ€" further shipments "in as large quantities as possible" will be urgently required. To refugee.committees alone including the Polish, and the Women‘s Voluntary Services have been given since January 376,0055 woollen comâ€" forts and 225,666 articles of relief clothing.

Raczynski, Polish Ambassador in London has sent the Canadian Red Cross Society an exâ€" pression of gratitude for the help given by the Society overseas in supâ€" plying woollen comforts and hospital supplies to the Polish hospital and Polish troops in England. â€"Count Raczynski‘s message delivered to Major C. A. Scott, overseas commission says: "It is very deep gratitude that I learn of this generous assistance and I am certain that our people will be greatly indebted to the Canadian Red Cross Society for such kindness.

Jean Roch Lacroix, aged two years and a half, died last wesek in hospital at Noranda from injuries receiv:d when he fell into a tub of lye water at his home at St. Laurent, north of LaSarre, Northwestern Quebec.

The settlement. nurse gave the child first aid and had him rushed to hospital, but it:"___j;‘ sible to save his life.

Perhaps you are due for a change toc but it is nice to know the other colors are there if we want to pep up cur fingers! (Relsased by The Bell Syndicate, Inc.) I must admit that I liked looking so refined, after having tested every new colour that has come to my desk. And Youngster Dies After Falling Into Tub of Lye 8â€"The neutral rose polish was apâ€" plied from moon to rim evenly. 9â€"My left hand was completed. 10â€"A colorless nail polish was paintâ€" ed over the entire nail of each finger. This prevents chipping and makes the nail smoother. 7â€"Whitening was put under the nail sparingly. Nail base was applied over entire nail (this is a colorless substance which gries like polish with a sheen). 6â€"The under nails was washed with soapy water and a cuticle stick then hand was scrubbed with small nail brush and dried again. 5â€"My right hand was dried thorâ€" oughly and the cuticle pushed hack with â€"a cotton wrapped cuticle stick An occasional hangâ€"nail was lightly trimmed with nippers (I try to avoid hangnails). 4â€"Steps 1, 2 and 3 were taken with my left hand. 3â€"Softening cuticle cream was workâ€" ed around the nail before my right hand was soaked in a small dish of soap, warm water. 2â€"The nails were shaped with an emery board to a pleasing oval. 1â€"The old polish was removed with cotton and liquid remover. Recently. I had my nails manicured and painted with a very neutral rose shade at the most fashionable nail salon in America and here the proâ€" cedure is described, step by step. Making Nails Beautiful When using the lighter shades you will find that it is not possible to cover the line where the flesh ends and the nail extends. Therefore the soft pink or rose polish must not be applied over that line nor below the "moon" line at the base of the nail. Each of women are extremely chic in their dressingâ€"chic with the maximum of good taste. They both wear their hair coiffed upward away from the face in front, with the back hair set in rolling, swirling waves. No long bobs for themâ€"they realize the shorter hair, dressed high and revea‘â€" ing the ear lobes is far more flatierâ€" ing to women in their forties. Both women also like to wear earrings on occasion. The two women are none other than the Duchess of Windsor and Mrs. Harrison Williams, much photographed society woman of New York City. The Duchess is a brunette, Mrs. Williams is a whiteâ€"blonde (her hair being beautifully prematurely white). . So you see there is no harda and fast fashâ€" ion rule of colours for brunettes and colours for blondses! If yvou do not like the vivid shades of nail polish, or if the man in vour life objects to them, you may still k in the fashion swim with one of the lighter shades. In fact two famed beauties of our era prefer the more delicate shades of polish and always wear them.

The following is the February shipâ€" ment: The progress of the war in Europe now suggests that within the next very short while the resources of the Red Crossâ€"are going to be taxed to the limit. There is assurance, however, that the ladi>s who are now working for this society will not fail the cause, and there are also hopes that those who have not yet been able to render asâ€" sistance wtll show their interest by applying to the Red Cross workâ€"rooms for their share of the work. The latest shipment going out from the Red Cross workâ€"rooms in South Porcupine reflects the industry, skill and earnestness of the ladies of this district. There is a great demand at the present time for knitteqg articlks and for clothing of various kinds. Such a demand means a greater call upon the time and skill of the ladies. That they have respond:d with enthusiasm is evident by the excellent quality and the quantity of the last shipment. The February shipment of asbestos by the Eastern Porcupine branch of the Red Cross shows that the ladies of South Porcupine, Dome, Ankerite, Golden City, and the> whole district, are meeting the call upon them in excellent way. +« Hospital Supplies. 38 Abdominal binders (quota). 12 Suits Pyjamas. 9 Hospital Gowns. 10 Dressing Gowns. 42 Sheets. . 1 Bd Jacket. 6 Laundry Bags. 3 Helmets. 6 Quilts.
