Mrs. Donald Ianson, of Toronto, moved into Mr, Norman Flewell's apartment last Friday. Speaking. of canned fruits, brings me to the question of points rationing. I do not know if you know about that. We are each given a point rationing book, and allowed twenty-four: points a month to use. Under this system we can get a choice of rationed art- icles such gs cereals two points, tinned milk cight points, tinned fruit eight to twelve points according to size. Dried fruits six points, salmon thirty- two points, steak twenty-four points. So you see it is quite a mathematical problem trying to work out how to make the points go round. We please f ourselves how we spread our points, but it is very worrying. During the winter when milk was short we were all allowed one tin of milk a month, but it is more plentiful now and so one must 'give up points if he wants tinned milk now. Soap is also rationed, so before we start to wash anything extra we have to think about it. One pound bar a month is one person's monthly share, or twglve ounces of soap flakes or twelve ounces of toilet soap. Of course where there are several children there is a great advantage. It must be very dificult where there is only one per- killen; Mrs. Marvin Nesbitt (Lydia), Phone 72w, Nestleton; and four brothers, Fred, Herbert, Norman and Roy.
