Here Is An Easy Way To Keep Beef Process Known As "Marin. ating" "Helpful In Hot Weather During warm weather, if beef Is to be kept in the home for a day or two before being. cooked, it is a wise preeaution, particu- =~ larly if the refrigerator is not of the best, to adopt-the treatment known as "marinating." The process consists. of preparing a marinade, or preservative mix- ture, made up of blending vine- gar or lemon juice with olive, corn, or other 'vegetable oil in the proportion; of one part vinegar .to two or three parts oil. A little pepper or a dash of mustard may be added if desired. : Place the meat in a covered earthenware dish, not a metal dish on account of the acid, and thoroughly coat the beef with the marinade, which may be applied handily with a pastry brush. Rub well intv the crevices or the meat, This procéss not only protects the meat from the air and helps to preserve it, but the acid makes it more tender and the oil im- proves the flavour, If the mar- inade is intended only for soft- ening the fibres and making the meat more tender, the propor- tions of the mixture should be reversed, that is, two or three parts of vinegar to one part of oil. Women Become Real "Soldiers" Trained To Replace Men In Army And Air Force Women are being taken into the army and air force in Can- ada today as real soldiers--in every sense of the word.

Assigned to - the Divisional Headquarters Staff, he had been rushed immediately upon arrival at a Scottish port to the nearest railway terminal and sent, with a number of other officers, directly to Aldershot to handle endless detail work assoc- lated with the billeting of the Canadian soldiers due to follow on troop trains, But Rolling was glad of the 20. hour-a-day job.

Occas- fonally they slowed down along the left side of the road for pagh. ing lines of marching troops. or motorized convoys. Greg 'remembered that back home he had heard a speaker compare . the size of Montreal with that of" Aldershot--Montreal, 32,000 acres, 'and Aldershot, 30, 000 acres: And too, that speaker had dwelt on the fact that upon these parade grounds where Can- adian feet now marched, Romans once marched to war, and ruins somewhere in the Aldershot area marked the spot where King Al fred had built fortifications a thousand years. before, But that was all the time he had for romantically historical reflec. tions. A few minutes after arrlv- ing at Vimy Barracks--the Divis- fonal H. Q.--Rollins and his com- panions were put to work. In fact, for 25 hours he was at a desk without even leaving for meals.

Another headline caught his eye: NAZIS BLITZED IN CON- VOY ATTACK. Under it a head- ing read: U-BOAT TRAP BACK. FIRES WITH HEAVY LOSES. "It was announced today by tho admiralty that a major assault on an incoming convoy was re- pulsed with heavy losses suffered by the Nazis. At least five U. boats were destroyed," the ac. count stated, "and 12 enemy bom- bers and fighters downed in one of the flercest engagements of short duration seen in the war to date, "The Admiralty admitted that the force and co-ordination of the enemy atlack would indica that a trap had been set for the con. © voy, but the Navy had no inten- tion of allowing 'any more Jervis Bay tragedies,' * "No indication was given of the size of the British escort or of the whereabouts of the attack, but it! was stated that some of the planes shot down carried RAF, markings which is alleged to have been 'the reason for the sinking of a liner some weeks ago, It R.AF. hea dvelsed a signal system that has checkmated the latest Hitlerian device, "Except for one fighter which falled to return from the engage. ment, the only loss suffered by the British forces was some dam- age to a destroyer and the sink. ing of a trawler, the Loch Lomond, The gallant ekipper, whose name had not yet been ascertained as himself near a U-boat that had apparently been driven to the sur- face by depth-charges, "Instead of veering away from the U-boat and allowing nearby warships to, attack, the Tock Lo mond" turned her bow directly at tho Naat" and approached full speed "ahead.
