Ba- ker, M.C., Croix de Guerre, will speak tonight in Memorial Hall on the subject. Sight is one of the blessings for which féw people are grateful and yet how helpless most of us are in the dark and how eager we are to get a light. Thousands of young people have to face the fact that for all their lives they will never see the sunshine, never see the grass grow green in the springtime nor the faces of the ones they hold most dear. We cannot give them these lost joys but we can help them to be useful citizens, to read and write and to learn how to use a typewriter and many other things which allow them once more to take up life. For some months, "Miss Enid Loop of the National In- stitute for the Blind, has been In Kingston and has done splendid work with the sightless or nearly sightless people here, Only those who have seen what some of them can do can realize the Godsend she has been and the great work the National Institute for the Blind is doing. That the marvellous variety and the 'quantities of beautiful work done dy Kingston women in ald of church or charitable organisations fills the onlooker with amazement. Every year thousands of dollars worth of work of all kinds is sold in Kingston at Christmas sales and sometimes the merchants say this thriving trade interferes with thelr own Christmas trade. But after all the materials are bought in the city and gome of the money thus earned is expended here. And where would the funds of the church and charl- ties be but for the womem who spend many an hour toiling for the good of others? Would a drive among the business men bring in as many dollars? = - That the slogan "Shop Early" cannot be repeated too often. Don't make Christmas a misery to your- selves and others by leaving every- thing to the last minute. That it is good news that a branch of the Junior Red Oross will be established in Kingston, We hope for a healthier and happier Canada and there is no way that this much desired state of affairs can be brought about so well as through such an organization. That older people wonder why pretty young girls who surely have natural roses in their cheeks should disfigure themselves with rouge and lipstick until they present a revolt- ing sight. A touch of color at night may be permissible if nature's roses are disappearing with declining years, but to see girls in the early twenties or even younger rouged to carmine from the cheapest lipstick, walking on the street in the full light of the afternoon sun is a shock- ing sight, and one that no citizen of good old Kingston wishes to see. No one wants to employ girls who make such frights of themselves, and many people give them eredit for being something worse than merely silly.

Not long ago a young married friend complained to' me that she "just couldn't make her food bud- get for the week stretch seven days." 1 love to have young housekeepers bring me their troubles; it's such fun to git down with them and say: "Let's see where the leaks are in your housekeeping." And there were such big leaks in this little bride's housekeeping; As we went over her grocer's and butcher's paid order slips, I found that she was buying too many big pieces of meat. 'Why don't you sometimes buy a pound of this or a pound of that -- instead of roast After roast?" I asked. She sat rocking with a worried trown. "I didn't think it would be right," she replied. 'John eats so much meat. 1 don't think a mere pound of any kind of meat, done In any way, would satisfy him. Actu- ally, he can eat half a roast at a sit- ting." I pointed out to her that of course he could--but that he didn't always need all the meat he ate. I advised her to have a gemerous-sized roast every Sunday and let him eat it to his heart's comtent, but on most of the other days of the week to buy one pound of meat or fish at a time and make it go for one meal. Then 1 gave her a sheat of recipes which call for no more than a pound and a half of fish or meat, and sent her home to put my advice to the test. A week later--telephoned to ask how her budget was holding out-- and found that she had managed to save 40 cents out of it in the past seven days, instead of far exceeding AUNT HET > tn "It's funny they don't have alien ists examine women that marries men expectin' to reform 'em." PRINCESS PAT IN BERMUDA. The presence of the Princess Pa- tricia Lady Ramsay promises to add tremendously to the social life of Bermuda this winter. "Soney," the palatial Pembroke Parish es- tate of Mr. and Mrs. George Plimp- ton of New York City, which Cap- tain and Lady Ramsay have leas- ed for the winter season, is one of Bermuda's show places, Ber- |: muda's famous Easter lily industry is largely due to the efforts of the General Russell Hastings, father of Mrs. Plimpton, and for many years no visit to these islands was com- plete which did not include a glimpse of the glorious 'lily fields "Soncy," This" Fairyland estate blossoms might be seen, ing away like a blanket of purest snow over the broad acres of the delightful place, the atmosphere about redolent with the perfume ~~ oh it, and that her husband felf as well nourished as ever. 1 believe that many women are making the same mistake that this girl made. For this reason I am printing the following recipes: Mock Sweetbreads: Put one poutd of lean veal and 2 ounces of salt pork through the food chopper and mix until well blended. Then add 2-3 of a cup of soft bread- crumbs, 2 eggs slightly behten, 1-2 cup of milk mixed with 1-3 dup of flour, 1-2 teaspoon of salt and 1-8 teaspoon of white pepper. Form 'this mixture into eight flat pieces in the shape of sweetbreads, put 'these pleces in a baking dish and dot over with 1 1-2 tablespoons of butter. Pour 3-4 of a cup of sea- soned soup-stock mto the pan and bast the "sweetbreads" with this liquor every ten minutes. Bake for one hour in & medium oven. The following dish might be sub- stituted for sweetbreads if desired: Fish Souffle: Bofl 1 1-2 pounds of cod or haddock in salted water with a few teaspoons of vinegar and 1-2 an onion stuck with a few cloves. When dome through, let 'cool, then pick into small flakes. Now cook 1-2 cup of bread crumbs in 1-2 oup of milk for § minutes, add the fish to this, then add one scant teaspoon of salt, a pinch of paprike, 2 tablespoons of lemon 'Juice, one tablespoon chopped pars- ley (this may be omitted) and the well-beaten yolks of 2 eggs. Cook over hot water for a couple of min- utes, remove from fire, let cool slightly, then fold in the ~stiffly- beaten whites of 2 eggs. Turn the mitture into a buttered baking dish (the dish should be only half full), set the dish in a pan of hot water and-bake in a moderate oven until well risen and browned. Tomorrow: Amswered Letters. All inquiries adaressed to Miss Kirkman in care of the "Efficient Housekeeping" department will bed answered in these columns in tbair turn.

The candy is "done" when a few drops trom the tip of the spoon drop- ped into a saucer of cold water hold their shape and can be picked up by the fingers. . The cooked sirup must not be dis turbed while cooling if a smooth creamy fudge is desired. The candy should be stirred until it looks dull. One-fourth cake of chocolate equals two ounces.
