TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1952 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN In Jhe dome No OF Royal Farewell To Royal Couple ' Making his first public appearance since his lung operation, King George VI is shown (second from left) waving "bon wl to the plane carrying Princess Elizabeth and her husband, the Duke of Edinburgh, on the first leg of their commonwealth tour. Princess Margaret is in centre, waving a black-gloved hand. Queen Elizabeth is beside her. Prime Minister Winston Churchill and cabinet members were on hand to see the couple off. The royal couple, now in Kenya, Africa, will be away. from Britain for five months. ~--Central Press Canadian. Royal Tour Of Australia . Strenuous Melbourne (Reuters) -- When Princess Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh land at Freemantle in western Australia March 1, they will embark on a tour more com- plex and tiring than anything plan- ned for the previously-scheduled visit of the King and Queen. (The Princess and Duke left England Jan. 31 for a week's visit in Africa before boarding the liner Gothic Feb, 7 for the three-week sea voyage to Australia.) In the two months before they embark again aboard the Gothic at Townsville, in tropical Queens- , they will travel through m of the three million square miles of the six states and capital territory of the Commonwealth of Australia The bare program for the tour, issued by Lt.-Gen. F'. H, Berryman, director-general of the royal visit, of 37 typewritten pages. It plots the movements of the royal party to within time limits of 15 minutes. Here are some sidelights on the preparations for the tour: It will take 98 men and six offi- of the Royal Tour Car Com- to drive the royal party and the 38 cars and two luggage in trim. e royal couple will travel 2500 es by road and. the car fleet be divided iito two parts, one of which will be assembled at the next city on the route before the royal party reaches it. On many of the longer journeys, however, the party will travel by air.

Everyday Meals Become Humdrum Unless Homemaker Tries New Ideas For anyone who is upset because the family meals seem to be rath- er humdrum the home ecomom- ists have a word of encourage- ment. They pass out the remind- er that the apple is something that can do much to give meals a lift because there are more ways of serving apples, both raw and cooked, than any other fruit. The apple can be used by itself but it teams up well with many other foods. Take, for instance, apples and vegetables. Casseroles of cab- bage and apple or turnip and ap- ple are both worth trying. Winter squash stuffed with a combination of saugage meat and chopped ap- ple is something else that is very good. Chopped raw apple gives that needed tart flavour to the stuffing for spareribs or pork ten-| derlin, or to a pork loaf. Appetizers are a perfect start to a meal but so often there does not seem to be time to prepare them. Here is a suggestion which is easy and inexpensive. Try serv- ing apple slices spread with nippy cheese or peanut butter as an ap- petizer with tomato juice or other juices. As a matter of fact apples make an excellent accompaniment to many foods. Apple fritters are very tasty with spareribs, ham or bacon. Coddled apples are a fav- orite Maritime accompaniment to the Saturday night baked beans. Chopped apple added to pancake batter gives something new and interesting. The flavour as well as food value of any breakfast cer- eal, whether it be served hot or cold, may be improved by the ad- dition of grated raw apple. Child- ren love this combination and mothers will do well to serve it often. Another way to use apple with cereal is in muffins. The grat- ed, raw apple is simply added to the batter. Apple sauce is perhaps one. of Canada's favourite desserts which lends itself to many ways of serv- ing. A little green food colouring may be added to tint the sauce green, making it especially attrac- tive to use as a base to be top- ped with red or yellow fruit. The sauce may also be tinted a deli- cate pink. It is good to know, spread on pancakes, which are be- ing served for dessert, or used as the filling for jelly roll. A new and different sauce for gingerbread is made by combining apple sauce with cream cheese. Baked apples are a simple, yet very popular dessert, and too, may be varied in several ways. Brown sugar or honey, with either raisins or nuts is most often stuffed into the centre of the apples after the cores have been removed. Mince- meat is another good filling, and Dressy Apron apron. Make one for yourself and several for gifts. A for making the DRESSY APRON is available if you send a | envelope to the Needlework Department of this paper | | marmalade, or a mixture of mar- malade or jam and nuts, is still another. Marshmallows, marsh- mallows and gum drops or cin- namon candies make ideal fillings it baked apples are being served: at a children's party. Apples re- tain much of their beautiful col- our when baked in aluminum foil. Here is a special suggestion for anyone who has a freezer or lock- er. After the apples are baked freeze them right in the foil, then each day, as Johnny trots to school, he can carry along one of these lovely silver balls for des- sert. For a change stewed apples may be served with custard sauce or added to a countless number of puddings such as blanc mange and tapioca cream. Other desserts, ap- ple dumplings and Dutch apple cake for example, are general fa- vourites and they, too, are made from apples--Canadian apples. Turnip Slices Make Pretty Petal Garnish Like" the lace on a valentine or the shiny wrappings on a Christ- mas 'package, a few well placed garnishes can dress up food and give it a party air. And some of the prettiest are made with the most ordinary kind of food. Turnips, for instance, make dai- sies that would be the pride of and gardener, (Or of any hostess, for the sandwich or relish tray.) Just cut very thin slices cross- wise of the turnip. Then cut holes in the centre of the slices with the tip of a knife, and insert a tight carrot curl. Now, with your kitchen scissors, snip the turnip up to within ¥% inch of the carrot, making about twenty petals. Snip off a diagonal piece from the tip of each petal to make a pin-wheel effect. Field daisies are easy too. Make the petals fewer and wider, and snip two diagonal pieces, one from either side of each petal. By vary- ing the petals, and using larger and smaller pieces of carrot for the center, and even by layering. the turnip slices, you can make just about any flower you favor. For calla lilies, take two thin tur- nip slices and bend them gently around a carrot stick stamen, leaving* the tops open. Fasten at the bottom with a toothpick and crisp in ice water. Roses are made by simply cut- ting the tip not quite off a tomato, leaving a bit of the skin attach- ed. Then, with the pieces of skin still connected to the tomato, pare around and around. Turn the top upside down and coil the paring on it, dropping the end into.the coil. Pretty? And of course, youll use the tomatoes in a salad. 'The dressing for sglad or fish can be part of the garnish, halves of green peppers, hollowed ool- owed out beets, lemon shells are made to order for holding tarter sauce or mayonnaise. Or you might garnish a fish salad plate with a beet flower. Just make slits in whole pickled beets and insert radish slices. Go round and round'the beet, until it is covered with crisp red and white petals. Place on watercress or lettuce.

I keep telling myself that I am overly-sensitive, and that I am not going to let it worry me; but soon I find myself getting nervous and upset again. Henry's philosophy is that it's better to say things to people's faces than behind their back; and his whole family is like that. So he says whatever he thinks. We have few friends and when we form new friendships they don't last long. I might add that Henry is a min- ister, but we never stay longer than two or three years in any one parish; and they are always the poorest parishes. Nobody knows my feelings, because I try to keep sweet outwardly; but this continual moving, together with trying to smooth over Henry's mistakes, is getting tiresome, after 17 years. Henry dresses in a rather sloppy manner, and when I try to per- suade him to improve he gets angry with me and tells me I have too much pride. Otherwise he is a very good man; and were it not for these faults he could have a very nice personality. What should I do? Am I wrong in feeling hurt Find Cakes' Names Often Confusing London (CP)--It's high time the bakers of Britain got together and made life more simple for the cus- tomer, says the trade paper, Baker and Confectioner. Within as little as a 20-mile dis- tance, such things as "A Maid of Honor" can mean anything from an almond-flavored tart to a cup- shaped cake complete with icing and glace cherry. a 'bun loaf' ranges from a glorified cur- rant bun to a heavily-spiced fruit loaf. Swiss buns, they say, almost yo- del with freedom and every baker seems to have a different idea on the make-up of the Banbury cake. Trade suggestion is a cake-nam- ing board that would set definite recipes for each name. 'After all," said the paper, "for a butcher, a sausage is a sausage from Land's End to John o' Groats." Middle-Sized Town Most Likely Place To Find a Husband The boy next door may well be the best prospect for marriage, Robert Crandall advises husband- hunting girls in the American Mag- azine. Crandall sent interviewers into 33 U.8. towns ranging in size from Randolph, Wis. (pop. 1,146) to New York (pop. over 7,800,000). The results were checked by mar- ital expert Dr. John Cuber, Ohio State University, and these are the dings: Two thirds of the girls interview- ed eventually married local boys, even though 70 per cent of them had tried their chances in strange towns before coming home to mar- ry. Girls who marry home-town boys, on the whole, like their mar- riages better than do girls who move away and marry in strange towns. Three quarters of the wives be- lieve that any girl wno goes to a strange city today is likely to have a hard time romantically. Nine tenths of the wives first met their future husbands in sit- uations which marriage experts re- commend as ideal for matchmak- ing: that is, through friends, re- latives, schools, churches, places of work, clubs, resorts, or small parties. ' A third of the wives admit they deliberately set out to meet their man. The ideal-sized community for building a promising courtship is the middle-sized town with a pop- ulation between 15,000 and 100,000. Waterproof Coating Extends Life of Clothes Wet snow-togs are no problem in families which have discovered how to waterproof their clothing at home. Clear waterproof dressing is sold in department and hardware stores for cloth auto tops, awnings, tents and shoes. Mothers have discovered it is just the thing for kiddies' snowsuits. The dressing will not stiffen, shrink or discolor the material; when applied properly, it is invis- ible. Rubbed or brushed on a fabric it treats the threads so they will not absorb water, but it does not seal the pores and garments stay comfortable to wear. An added ad- vantage is that mud splashes o no penetrate the treated fabric and can be sponged off easily. Clothes stay cleaner longer. Leather goods concerns use clear waterproof dressing by the gallon as a leather preservative. Shoes can be protected with a home treat- ment. Remove all the old dirt and shoe polish with a good fabric cleaner, apply the waterproofing as directed, then shine with shoe polish. A boy's leather mitts will make a million snowballs and still be dry under their waterproof coat- g. The waterproofing is claimed ideal for an old umbrella which leaks in a heavy rainstorm, a rain- coat which has lost its water- Tepellancy, or a hunter's jacket and gahardine cap.

C.: In a nebulous way, you are saying that two lives are out of joint--yours and Henry's. His idiosyncracies as described indicate that he is, at heart, an unhappy man, defensive and dis- contented; and critically envious (unconsciously) of almost anybody who seems on good terms with life. Persons of happy mind and con- tented spirit, who have found con- genial work to do, are kindly spo- ken without effort, in the main, They don't bring an embittered bias to the human scene, as seems to be Henry's handicap; and one wonders what lies back of his spe- cial difficulty with people. It may be he is miscast in the role of clergyman, accidentally detoured into it, after a difficult childhood which denied him opportunity to discover and develop his real in- terests and aptitudes. Early frustration, which blocks satisfactory self-expression along socially approved lines in forma- tive years, tends to project a spoil- ing shadow over the individual's later experience as well. And pos- sibly this is the inside story of Henry's poor showing as a pastor. Perhaps secret distaste for the job is his hidden cross; but maybe he wouldn't face or concede the fact if it were true. _|CHANGE MIGHT HELP HIM However, assuming that Henry has been coasting along the wrong road (for him) for many years, nevertheless it's still not too late to put on the brakes, pull out of the rut, and find the path that better suits him. After all, if you are con- tinually on the move, making the rounds of the poorest parishes, while alienating friends as fast as you make them, what has he got to lose, if he adventures into new fields of endeavor, in search of agreeable usefulness? All that is necessary for a fresh start is courage on Henry's part-- courage to examine the record, reach honest conclusions and act forthrightly to reject unserviceable influences, that lead him down blind alleys. But what would your attitude be, if he undertook to find other employment? I hope for the sake of both that you would endorse the idea confidently--without push- ing *or nagging, of course. In tentatively proposing a change of occupation for Henry, I take for granted that such a move would be permissible within the frame- work of church doctrine or legis- lation. Offhand I think of several instances of good men, ordained for the ministery, who are giving fine account of themselves in full- time work in other fields--such as medicine, education, personnel gui- dance and the like. Henry might fit into the industrial picture, if not into a professional niche, and gain self respect in doing so. Now about yourself: Your hurt reaction to Henry's sharp tongue is understandable, but it's fairly futile to try to erase another adult's "faults." To make your life easier, accept Henry "'as is," without self- pity or reformer zeal. And learn to overlook his errors, instead of straining to cover them. M. H. Prize Aprons GOOD DEAL!

With colds and infections going the rounds, it's especially important to see that every member of the fam- ily eats lots of oranges, grape- fruit, and tangerines to help guard against infection. It's a good idea to serve one or the other every morning at breakfast and again at another meal. Orange or grapefruit salads are delicious. And so are orange des- serts.

"SALADA TEA CHILD GUIDANCE:- Great-Grandmother Retains Youth By GARRY CLEVELAND MYERS, Ph.D, Practically every growing child comes in contact with persons over fifty. Some children live in famil- jes with aging grandparents or great-grandparents.

Marvelous are those who, living beyond sev- enty or eighty, are cheers and op- timistic. WINDOW OF EXPERIENCE In the foreword of u recent book- let "Through The Window," writ- ten after the age of eighty by the great-grandmother Edith E. Reid Mumford, Beaconsfield, England, one reads: "Looking through the window of experience enjoyed over the span of eighty years, I have seen so much which makes life good and worth living; looking through the window of my sitting- room I have seen so much loveli- ness in the world which lies out- side; and looking through the win- dow of my mind, have recovered memories which have given me joy; thus the writing of this little book that others might share with me my happiness and faith."

Her last item in the booklet is "The End of the Road"--"The laugh of a child, gay as the bab- bling of a brook as it runs over the stones in the meadow; a smile on the face like the of the sun; a light at the end of the road when the labour of the day is done; the sleep which comes to the old when the promise of early life has been fulfilled; together they spell such gladness that there is no room for sadness, but only for a song which is lovely, like the tremulous trill of a bird," Wonderful if you and I could live to be as old as Mrs. Mumford npw is and still keep her youthful outlook.

There has been much written about the effect of TV on family life in the Uniteti States. Now comes a report on what the home set is doing to English viewers. Among other things, TV apparently is adding to friction between Eng- lish husbands and wiyes. The London Sunday Express sur- veyed TV habits and found that married couples can have fights over the set if their tastes differ. The reason: If the husband doesn't like the entertainment, he has to retire to the kitchen to read or Work: apparently has caught on in England, and two million viewers are expected to be added to the audience this year. The Express reported that TV already has reve olutionized home life, broken life- time habits and proved "a more powerful drug than the radio or cinema." The Express said TV is "'des- troying conversation; cutting people off from their fri ; send. ing thousands of children late to bed because. they have been allowed to sit up for the evening programs." On the credit side, British TV 'encourages manual hobbies by televised demonstrations; stimu lates the average housewife by cookery series; awakens interest in party politics by screened dis- cussions." The BBC discovered after a sure vey that of every 100 viewers: _ Eighty-six reduce radio listen- ing; 63 reduce moviegoing; 49 play fewer indoor games; 46 read less; 35 cut down theatre-going; 22 see less of their old friends; 14 garden less; 11 take fewer trips to the country and nine cut down gu golf, cricket, tennis and foot- all. ------------------ BIG STADIUMS Some modern sports dwarf the ancient coliseum in Rome, which was estimated to hold 87,000 people. .
