After the pastry has been rolled and the pie pan lined, the crust should be sprinkled with a mixture of sugar and filour. The amount of flour is always small but depends upon the juiciness of the fruit. A tablespoon each of four and granulated sugar is usually right for apples. Berries and cherries will need three tablespoonfuls of each, and peaches even more. You will have to use your judgment to some extent when geciding upon the amounts.

Billing machines similar to those in use at Kirkland Lake will be recomâ€" mended for Sudbury.

"All of the departments are centred in the one building. This building also contains the library, courtrooms and other offices. With all work connected with the city conâ€" centrated in the one building, work seems to go very smoothly.

C new veryvy and I‘ve known girls who wrecked their entire lives by being so selfâ€"conscious about a birthmark that they drew only pity from their friends. I‘ve known other girls who dismissed the cirecumâ€" stance with a shrug of their shoulders and carried on normallyâ€"usually makâ€" ing up in their jolly personalitiee for what others might consider a ‘:personal tragedy." This preparation is now mixed to resist sun and water so once you apply it to your skin you may swim, play tennis or just be a pretty spectator with no fear that the stuff will wear off! This handy camouflage comes in light, medium and dark so if you select the proper shade it will blend in with your current skin tone miraculously. Liver spots, acne scars, varicose veins and birthmarks are almost completely concealed (at least blended so they are not noticeable) if you apply the cream as directed on the jar. Banish Selfâ€"Consciousness Now let me lecture those of you who are selfâ€"conscious over a permanent blemish. To be selfâ€"conscious about something you cannot help is sheer stupidity. Do what you can to cover it up, yes. Even wear cloihes so cut that it might be concealed. But do ncot let it mar your happiness. People are not as vindictive as is generally supposed by those who are victims of skin blemishes. People may be curious but wellâ€"bred persons will never show their curiosity about anâ€" other‘s misfortune. What you areâ€" your individual charm and friendliness and gay spiritâ€"is what people appreâ€" clate and seek. I have known the ugliest looking men and women to be the most popular members of a community or group. Why? Because they shrugged their shoulders at what they could not help and spent all their effort on developing character and charm. Their intrinsic worth showed through their manners, their eyes, their words, their deeds. People cculd not help loving them. Young girls are selfâ€"conscious to a aegree anyhow. That is a cross of adoleszsence. But young girls with blemishes who do not strive to conquer their concern will always remain selfâ€" conscious, lack poise and friendships and miss a lot of fun out of life. If you are timid about wearing a bathing suit or revealing play suit beâ€" cause of a sear or minor skin blemish take heart. You should not give up the things you like to do most because of a troublesome skin disfigurement for there is a waterproof cream which does a dandy job of covering over such a blemish. At a young age it is hard to recognize the genuine values. Superficial exâ€" teriors are so likely to mix up good judgment. But those of you who are worried about a disfigurement should take it from me that the old adageâ€" that all that matters is what you are, not what you appear to be or what you may haveâ€"is true. Push up that head proudly and get your ration of happiness out of life! Don‘t be a stupid girl and act as if you have the biggest cross to bearâ€" people are not the slightest bit interâ€" ested in your cross for they have crosses to bear of their own! women trained in Home Economics have a unique opportunity of making a vital contribution to the war effort by promoting a Red Cross programme in nutrition in their community.

Deaths from Tuberculosis Reduced 80 p.c. in Ontario ‘Toronto, Aug. 20â€"Modern methods of combatting tuberculosis have result= ed in reducing deaths from that disâ€" ease in all provinces of the Canada it is shown by Dr. G. J. Wherre.t, writâ€" ing in the Canadian Public Health Journal. The reductions vary from 64 per cent in Alberta to 33 per cent in Quebec. In Ontario it was 60 par cent between 1921 and 1839. One reason for improvement is, that the dissase is now brought to light much earlier than formerly, says Dr. Wherrett, but even now tso many patients are admidted to sanitoria when their cases are already hopeless. In order to diagnose the dissase as early as possible, and before it has caused noticeable symptoms, the Docâ€" tor recommends that surveys be made, especially among the following: Contacts of known cases and deaths (ten times as liable to tuberculosis as other families); nurses and nurses in training; university and normal school students; mental hospitals; mining and olher industries; recruits for the army; adomestic servants; mothers and Indian reserves. Great increase is reportsd in the number of sanatorium ‘beds available. There were fewer than 2,000 twentyâ€" five years ago; this year the total will be about 11,000. Ontario‘s position in this respect is particularly favourable, with no waiting lists at the sanatoria and with a death rate of 28 per 100,000 as against 63.8 for the whole of Canada.
