S. PHCNE 1173 3 DR, CARTWRIGHT SPEAKS T0 WA, Annual Address of Interest- - ing Nature Given at Annual Meeting Toronto, May 9--The hall it St. Anne's parish house was crowded and applause greeted Dr. Cartwright as she stepped to the platform to give her annual message and challenge to the women of the W.A, in her pto- sidential address yesterday at the 43rd annual meeting. Dr. Cartwright said that "life did not consist of one's possessions", And the extravagance of women today came in for censure. Women did not care to wear their last year's clothes for fear someonc might notice them, she said. "They scrap their cars and buy new ones cvery year, They are tearing down their old houses and building new ones," she continued. The present are was compared by Dr. Cartwright to "Midas and the golden touch," It was a parable of what happens to people and to coun- tries when the desire for too much possession came on them, In 1888 "Big Eagle", an Indian ot the Blackfoot reserve, had said of the white people: "Loving food and clothes so much that we will not give anything away, is like stealing, In- dian give away all, but white people love food and clothes." Members of the W.A, must take the larger view of life and of work, Volunteers were cqual if not better than professional: workers, she thought, and all were meant to be volunteers and none were meant to be idlers. "Great hearts are glad when it is time to give," she quoted in conclyd- ing her address, and stated that 31 per cent, of the population in To- ronto were Anglicans, the largest number of any denomination in the city and statistics showed that the denomination had the largest rate of increase, PROMINENT FAMILIES UNITED BY MARRIAGE Montreal, May 9.--~Two of the most prominent: French-Canadian families im Canada were united when Made- line, daughter of L, H, Hebert, of Montreal, and George, -son of Sir George Garneau, of Quebec, "were married here yesterday. The cerc- mony took place in St. James Basi- lica and was performed by his Grace Mgr. Gauthier, archbishop of co-ad- jutor of Montreal. Mr, and Mrs. Garneau will spend their honeymoon in Europe, On their return from abroad they will reside in Quebec. In addition to the members of thk two families and a large number of socially prominent people present at the wedding were the Lieut.-Gover- nor of the Province of Quebec, and Mrs, Carroll and Premier and Mrs, L. A. Taschereau. CRETONNES Half a hundred elephants With «bales from Samarcand; Close by, a thousand yellow wings Flashing through jungle-land.

Despair is clutching at my heart; I turn my face away-- I hear a prim, sharp treble piping, "Anything else today?" --Charles Ballard. REALIZATION Before I married Annabelle I was her pumpkin pie, Her precious peach, her lamb, The apple of her eye, honey But after years of wedded life This thought I pause to utter: "I find I am none of these things, I'm just her bread and butter!" ~--Glasgow Herald. Special orders taken for Bridal outfits. Reasonable The Fashion Shoppe 84 Simcoe St, S. 'The Women's Corner the H One of the most important facts to 'remember in making a spouge cake is that it is leavened solely by air beaten into the eggs. Cold eggs at legst three days old beat most successfully and it is impos- sibe to beat as much air in cold storage eggs or those preserved in brine or waterglass as into fresh eggs. The whites and the yolks must be beaten separately because mote air can be enclosed in the whites alone than when they are combined with the yolks. Egg- whites for sponge cake should haves alt added and then be beat- en on a large cold platter with a wire whisk. Sponge cakes uave more volcme when the eggs are so beaten than they do when a ro- tary beater is employed. When the whites are foamy add cream of tartar when that is called for as in angel food, and continue tne beating until the mass is stiff enough to stand in peaks, but not dry. Underbeaten whites make a dry cake; underbeaten, the cake is undersized, heavy and coarsv- grained. The yolks should wu beaten till thick and lemon color- ed, ' Air must also be incorporated in the flour so that should be sift- ed at least five times. Bift first and then measure the amount of flour required. Unsifted flour makes half as much again when sifted, so unless the sifting comes before measuring the proportions for the ingredients in the cake are all wrong from the start, no mat- ter how excellent the recipe, and the cake is dry and cracks open. Also sift the sugar, then measure 4t. Sifting breaks up the graine. As to the order of procwaurd in the standard method of makiug a sponge cake, gather the materials required and prepare the sugar first, then the flour, the egg- whites, then the yolks and lemon rind and juice is that is the flavor- ing desired, Sponge Cake Recipe Here is a splendid recipe to fol- low: 1 cup of sifted sugar; 1 cup- ful of sifted flour specially prepar- ed for delicate cakes and sold in the pacakge by most grocers; 0b egg whites, 1-4 of a teaspoonful of salt, b egg yolks, 1-3 lemon, grated rind and juice. When the egg yolks are thick and lemon colored add the lemon juice and rind and beat until the mixture 1s very light. Into the egg whites fold the sug. ar, a small amount at a time, then the ekg yols and finally the flour. For Anything of Interest to Anns of H Pour the batter into an ungreased tube pan and bake in slow oven (326 deg. Fahr.), an hour or more. Remove from the oven and invert the pan for another hour, or until the cake is cold. Notice that the sugar and flour are not stirred into the egg mix- ure, but "folded" in. Folding is the motion used by experts to in- close more air in a cake wiuont the loss of that already beaten in- to the eggs. It is made by" cut- ting down through the mixture with the spoon and curving up and over. The Technique of Baking The baking of sponge cake is just as important as its prepara- tion'and the combination of its in- gredients. Sponge cake rises and bakes the best when the oven is lighted after the cake has been put in, and the fire turned very low. Increase the temperature slowly. As the oven temperature fluctu-~ ates every time the door is open- ed divide the baking period into quarters. During the first 10 minutes, a sponge cake should be- gin to rise, At the end of half an hour it should be still rising and the top beginning to brown. At the end of 45 minutes it should have finished rising and the top should be more browned. After an hour of proper baking the cake should be done, as attested by its shrinking from the sides of the pan. Ba opening the door at the end®of each quarter, the oven Is found to be too hot, or too cold, correct the temperature. Or, if the cake is baking unevenly, the po- sition of the pan may be changed carefully. Experts say that if cakes are moved during the first baking quarter there is a slight decrease in thelr volume, but careful moving after the first 10 minutes seems to have no effect. A sudden cold draft, however, may cause havoc, so it is awige to close the outside door of the kit- chen before making such examina- tions in cold weather. » A sponge cake should be tested before its removal from the oven even it it has been baking the re- quired length of time.: A wire cake tester inserted in the centre of the cake should come out clean; clinging dough indidcates insufficient baking. The surface of a cake that is done will spring bacly 'when lightly touched with the finger; if undone, the imprint of the finger will be left. Helpful Hints for. Harassed Housewives If the rug acquires a bad crease in it, turn it upside down and wet the crease with a wet whisk until very wet. Then stretch the rug tightly and fasten with tacks until entirely dry. This method will iron out all traces of the crease. LI A paste made of starch and but- termilk spread over an ink spot on the rug will remove the spot. Let it stand until dry and then rub it off. ; [J LJ] Shake a coal fire until you can gee the fire through the. grate.
