Into Ration Board Offices across Canada they pour, represen- . ting, up to June 15th almost half a million pounds of meat for the victims of starvation overseas. "Canadian housewives, in the face of world famine are meeting the challenge to share with the hungry out of their rations," says the Food Information Committee. The latest figures of the number of coupons turned in bear this out. The 35,583 coupons received by lo- cal ration boards during the two _ weeks, June 1 to 15, represent an 'Increase of almost 609% over the number turned in during the pre- vious two weeks and bring the cumulative total to 124,442, How It's Done "But," says the sceptic, "how do they do it? Surely the very fact that meat is rationed in Canada shows that we have none to spare." If he talks to the housewife who is donating coupons he will find that feminine ingenuity is working overtime in a good cause.

First of all, planned and careful buying, preparing and serving are more than half the battle. By ex- periment, she has found that an ounce a day chopped off her fame ily's meat allowance is never no- ticed. She knows that, if each fam- ily in Canada used just one ounce less of meat each day, the national saving would be over 600 tons of meat in a week. Care of Meat She unwraps her meat as soon as it comes from the butcher, wi it with a damp cloth, and ii cooking it immediately, covers it loosely and keeps it cold. She knows that when meat is left in the original wrappings, juices are draws: out and the meat will be dry afeer cooking, and that refrigeration of some kind is a must in summer, when meat spoilage is common. She uses moderate temperatures for cooking meat, She knows that this saves both meat and fat, be- cause the meat shrinks less and the drippimgs are of better cotour and flavour for future use. She knows that a sharp carving knife and a skilful carver mean more servings of meat per pound. By the clever use of extenders she makes a little left-over meat go a long way. As well, she serves meat not at breakfast, Jjunch or supper. | Less Meat Used She plans for one or two meat- less days a week, knowing that for many millions, meatless days are the rule rather than the exception. She eliminates meat snacks be- tween meals, and substitutes fruit or salad vegetables, fresh from the the food stocks of the country her- self by growing a victory garden and by canning or freezing fruits and vegetables to provide much of her winter requirements of these foods. The co-operation of every Canad- ian is needed in the fight against famine, one housewife expressed it-- "The results of years of depri~ | vation' cannot be erased overnight and for the future peace and happi- ness of the world we must see our world neighbours well on their way to health and prosperity. Giving our meat coupons for the relief of the hungry and the saving of lives is such a practical way to help." . en ------ London--(CP)--A gale of Chinese porcelain, mostly of the Ming Dyn- asty (1368-1644), brought £23395 ($105,277) at Christie's recently, $ only at the main meal of the day, | garden, And lastly, she is contributing to New C.G.I.T. Camp "Opens Near Columbus Today 40 girls will be fulfilling a dream when they arrive for the opening of a new C.G.LT. camp on the Enniskillen' Road, one and a hall miles east of Columbus. A camp close enough for the girls to get to in the summer been the hope of many of the C.G.IT. leaders for years, for it is one way in which the girls can put into practice their training and gain more than ever from the comrade- ship of the other girls. The co-operation of the churches and the unselfishness of many men and women have made this camp a reality; indeed, these people have produced a camp that is attractive ly situated, and which has well built cabins and a dining hall and kitchen thai stand comparison with some of the finest camps in the country. _ Voluntary Labor These cabins have been built on the whole by C. G. I. T. leaders and by men who have gone out to the grounds faithfully night after night, digging post holes, nailing up the lumber, and even cutting a road into the kitchen so that supplies may be easily brought in. The whole story is one of co- operation, and the leaders insist that this is only a start. The bare essentials are there now, but any more church groups which are ine terested in helping the girls with their plans will be welcomed. The large area of about 12 acres has vast possibilities, and scope for ideas to be carried out for years to come, The camp's most attractive fea- ture is a meandering stream across one end of the property; plans for damming it and providing a swim- ming pool right in the camp sound most encouraging. In the mean- time, the camp is only a short dis- tance from Geneva Park and the campers can get their daily swim there. Dining Hall on Hill The dining hall stands on a high hill overlooking the grounds. Beside it is the kitchen firmly built with a cement floor. Already three cab- ins have been completed at the foot of the hill. One more is start- ed and will probably be finished this year. Full staffs have already been ob- tained for the camps that will be held this summer. Each will*have a director, a nurse, and a staff qualified to direct all of the activi- ties which are embodied in the C. G. I. T. purpose which is "to cher- ish health, seek truth, know God and to serve others", The girls who are arri to- day are intermediate girls of 13 and 14 years. July 13, a junior camp will start with girls 11 and 12 years. Explorers 8, 9, and 10 years old will begin their camp on July 20, and seniors, 15 years and over, will hold the last one for the week succepd- ing July 27. The idea for the camp began with the C.G.I.T. in Simcoe Street United Church. When the land was given by an interested mem- ber of the church, the board allow- ed the CGIT. to use the money with which it had planned to buy the property, for the development of the land and buildings. The W. A. donated a sum of money which the girls could draw on for what- ever they wanted most. Co-operation Given The other churches were equally interested in the scheme, Al- bert Street United Chur board and. the Northminster United Church board each gave the money to erect a cabin. The C.GIT. of Albert Street with the help of the Mothers' Auxiliary and some of the Bible class of the church were able to get enough money to start an- other cabin, anc the C.G.IT. of Simcoe Street with the help of t§eir mothers and the explorers provided money for still another. Different church groups, mothers of the girls, and friends, have glv- en everything from carving knives to cooking pots to help out with the equipment, and the camp may find that there are still many unfore- seen articles which they could use. It is a project which has started auspiciously; as the work progres- ses, the C.G.L.T. of this city will al- ways be able to look back at the help given them so unselfishly this spring both financially and by the men who worked so hard that the girls might really get started with their plans.

ALBERT PRATT AND TOMMY WRIGHT Three generations paid homage to Mrs. Albert Pratt, Buckingham Avenue, one evening last week when she celebrated her 75th birthday. It was a surprise party coming at the end of a busy day when she had motored to Toronto, visited her daughter, Mrs. Ed. Smith, who is sick in hospital, and gone to Eaton's and Simpson's. with her only great-grandchild, Tommy Wright, that evening, shows k little the strenuous day had wearied her. Mrs. Pratt, who was born in England, came to. Canada in 1907, Her husband died in January, 1943, and she makes her home with a married daughter, Mrs. R. W. Yeo. She has seven children living: lives on Buena Vista; .Herbert of Toronto, who came with his wife and daughter, Marjorie, for the birthday party; Mrs. F. J. Watson, Park Road North; Mrs. Walter Baker, Montrave Avenue; Mrs. Harold/Peever of Windsor; Mrs, Yeo with whem she lives; Mrs. Ed. Smith of Toronto. One son, Edgar, passed away 18 years ago. She has also 25 grandchildren, The only great-grandchild is the two-and-a-half-year-ocld son of Mrs. Edward Wrighty Ontario Street, daughter of Mrs. Watson. The 75th birthday party was a real party with a birthday cake, candles and a purse of money from Mrs, Pratt's children. - ~ Her picture taken ' Ernest, who --Photo by Hornsby Studio This World (By the Woman's Editor) J We Live In Someone jocularly called the So- cial Department of The Times- Gazette the other day the Wedding Department and that suggesed to us that we might tell about "Delta Wedding," a delightful new first novel by a native of Mississippi, Eudora Welty. \ By her short stories of the Deep South--her first story to appear in the Atlantic four or five years ago received an O. Henry. Award-- Eudora Welty has already made a name for herself. Her novel now fulfills the promise already made. Instead of one scene or act, we now have a complete play. In "Delta Wedding" is given the story of the Fairchild clan of three generations--many in each--during the week of 17-year-old Dabney Fairchild's wedding. "Aunt Ella walked into the roomful of family" --that is just what we see through- out the novel, and what a fascinat- ing "roomful of family," alive, ex- uberant, clan-conscous in the ex- treme and often producing a real dlam! 3 From Inside Out Eudora Welty tells of life on. a cotton plantation, Shellmound, in the Mississippi Delta in 1923. She is now in her middle thirties and one might guess that she herself was one of the young Fairchilds. She shows the inside, sometimes through the eyes of nine-year-old motherless Laura, a visitor who may become a permanent member of one of the households, or again through the diary of Shelley, Dah~ ney's elder sister, who has just graduated from college, is shortly leaving for a trip to Europe and can't resist the temptation to start "My Trip Abroad" diary the mom- entous week of the first wedding in the family. . Uncle Battle, Dabney's father, was so huge that he always called children- "Skeeta." He broke all his nine or ten children of being left- handed but it was he also who pro- tected Negroes from the sheriff and induced a wrong-doer to give him- self up to justice. Uncle George, one of the most likeable characters, appears as the hero of , the trestle incident in which the Yellow Dog--a mixed train--stopped just bef, it him and his little ha whose foot he co and, added the always, "before te powder." Marrying Beneath One Uncle George had married be- neath him, With 'a sigh of finality, Aunt Tempe sums up the result of such marriages thus: "When people marry beneath them, it's the woman that determines what comes. It's the woman that coarsens the man. The man doesn't really do much to the woman, I've observed." "You mean Troy's not as bad for us as Robbie," - whispered Shelley. Robbie was Uncle George's wife. This brings us to Troy Flavin, the plantation overseer, whom Dab- ney marries, The scenes in which he helps Aunt Ellen in the kitchen and in which he presents his mother's wedding gift to the bride, quilts of her own making, are vivid- ly painted. One feels that Shelley's whispered reply was perhaps right. People had sald that the Fair- childs would die if Dabney married Trey Flavin. During that week of the wedding, they were just too busy to die, and that, perhaps, is a not get free ithful narrator ground them all 'good preventive of heartbreaks and "dying." Although girls: and women--and especially those who like living in a lively crowd where everyone talks at once and something is always ding" best, it should have a wider appeal for it is a story universally true in' many respects. Eudora Welty k ows not only the Deep, happening--will enjoy "Delta Wed-- South but the world and life. And so back we come to Shelley who thought to herself as "she worked with Dabney at the wedding flowers: "Why do you look out thinking nothing will happen any more? Why are you thinking your line of, trees the indelible thing in the world? There's the long journey you're going on, with Aunt Tempe, leading out, and you can't see it now. Even closing your.eyes, you see only the line of trees at Shell- mound. Is it the world? If Shell mound were a little bigger, it would be the same ag the world entirely."
