RICHMOND HILL, ONT. EN EL 31E Ah CAMPBELL “Why, Jeannie, laughed her mother, , l“lhey are here nll bc ti‘nm 'l‘hcrc llSll'i a day that you don‘t have lw’o‘ or three callers." l “Oh. I kr‘ow." said Jeannie, “but I‘d ,ilike them all in a bunch. We could ihave tca out on the lawn, the grass 3is just so warm and dry.” l “I don’t think the ground is warm and dry enough for 'my pneumonia patient." said mother, “but we can probably fix up some other kind of party.” The twins bad a busy time for the next few days. They trotted round with invitations to the houses that were near enough and telephoned to the others. “And wear your school clothes,” they always said, “ cause we might play in the barn." l\l'vther sent a rush order to the city 'and when the big parcel came the 'l,\\'i"lS were delighted. 'ihe party day dawned bright and clear but just. as the last guest arrivâ€" ed it began to rain. “Never mind." said Aunt Madge, “we were going to play in the barn anyway. Everybody go down to the stable and don’t go upstairs into the barn until you are called.” 1 “We are going to hunt eggs,“ Jean- 'nic told them, “brown eggs in the hay." “.VVhere’s Jock," said someone, “did he stay up at the house?" Jeannie laughed. She knew where Jock was but she mustn’t tell. “Ready,” called a gruff voice from upstairs and they all \tried to crowd up the stair at once. wondering what game they were go- ing to play and out from behind a pile of hay hopped an enormous white rabbit. “It’s Jock dressed up!” they cried after their first surprise. ' “I’m ndt Jock,” he said sternly, “I’m the Easter Rabbit and I’ve hidâ€" den eggs all over the hay mow. See who can find them. A prize to the one who finds the mos:." There was a mad scramble through ithe hay and shouts of laughter as lthey hunted the chocolate eggs and one CUP 0f flour, one Cup Of Milk, lthe rain came down rat-a-tat on the one egg, one-eighth Mix all ingredients and beat for five minutes, pour into hissing hot butter- ed gem pans and bake in hot oven for twenty minutes. Helpfulâ€"Hints This Mixture Cleans Carpets Two bars of ivory or castile soap, two quarts water, one-half pound wash- ing soda, one-half pint liquid ammon- ia (if liquid ammonia is not available dissolve one tablespoon powdered am- monia in one cup full of water), one- half pint alcohol. Slice the soap into the water; add the soda and boil un- til the mixture is reduced to one quart. When lukewarm add the am- monia and alcohol. Beat until thick. When cook spread it over the carpet and scrub it in with a coarse brush. Wash off with luke warm water. If the solution will not scrub to a white lather on the carpet add a little water while rug is on the floor. This will brighten a rug and make it look like new. The rug should of course be thoroughly cleaned to remove loose dust before it is scoured. Good Uses For Paper Keep in a convenient drawer or cupboard in the kitchen, a supply of paper table napkins, sheets of newsâ€" paper, waxed paper, and large sheets of brown wrapping paper. The pa- per napkins may be used for wrap- ping or covering foods, for cleaning lamp glasses, for wiping off greasy plates when the dishes are being pil- ed for washing. The wrapping paper when slightly floured and laid flat on the table may be used as a bake board. When fish or fowl are being cleaned place a large sheet over newspapers on the table; dice and mince vegetab- les on smaller sheets. When flour must be sifted several times, sift it onto a sheet of waxed paper. Then it is easily returned to the Sifter for re-sifting thus doing away with soiled bowls. Wrap bread or cakes in waxed paper to keep them fresh. Use newspapers for cleaning greasy pots and utensils, thus avoid- ing unsightly cloths. Clean the gas or oil stove with newspaper. Line the garbage pail with newspapers and save much cleaning of that receptcle. \"ORDS God has such gentle speech; he talks In timid violets Swaying upon their slender stalks.

Jeannie found the most eggs but_of course she wouldn’t take the prize because she knew so many hiding places. So Joe who lived near the school got the prize which was a white candy bunny just like Jock. When Aunt Mary called to them that tea was ready they ran to the house so fast that they hardly got wet. / After tea Jeannie brought out a big basket filled with little parcels and there was a present for every- bodyâ€"~marbles and tops for the boys and “jacks” for the girls. And strangely enough they were quite new toys to these little country children who had not been brought up on Slde- walks as Jock and Jeannie had. They were nice games for the house and Jock quite forgot to be shy_as he taught them how to spin their tops and all the different ways of playing marbles. Jeannie felt quite proud of her skill as she showed the girls how to play “jacks” and soon they were all la in . ‘ Alt) lgst Tlncle John brought the big wagon around to the front door and as they all climbed in they saw that the rain had stopped and the stars were shining. . “It's lovely having a party in your own house,” said Jeannie after they had gone singing down the lane, “but I wish I could have the drive home too.” Electrical Contractor Phoneâ€"Willowdale 96W POYNTZ AVENUE '“ LANSING, ONT.

All these years our forests have been cut down with little no illfllltfl’ll given to what future generations will think of our wns‘ici‘ul ways. m, . lil‘f or And now the (lm‘crnment is beginning to replace these trees. livery community would like to mark this your of our Diamond Jubilee in some appropriate way. There will probably be mammoth picnics held. speeches made, bonfires lighted, displays of fireworks. And then what will we have to show for it :11]? Nothing that will be. rememlu-red for more than a few months at most. It would be so much niccrto feel that we were doing something lasting, something that would be remembered by our descendants after we are dead and gone. Perhaps some lawns will build new community balls, or put up another monument, or pave the main street by way of a Jubilee celebration. These are all very worthy objects and a credit to any town but it isn't every community that will be able to do these big things. But there is one thing that is within the reach of every neigh- borhood. something that will not take much capital or very much la- bor and something that will improve with age an Jwill be pointed to with pride when Canada is celebrating her hundre tb birthday. LET US CE .EBRATE BY PLANTING TREES. This could be carried out on a large or a small scale, could be undertaken by the Parks Dcpartment'of a, big town or could be atâ€" tended to in our own backyards. It would be ideal for a town to hold a big picnic or Arbor Day and plant sixty trees either in the town park, in the school grounds or as an avenue along both sides of a new street. To carry out the whole Canadian idea it would be most suitable to plant maple trees and I have no doubt that the Forestry de- partment of" the Ontario Government would supply the young trees free officharge if they knew they were for such a worthy object. We could improve our own home grounds so much by a little tree planting and though it seems hard work at the time we will be repaid for it many times over. Then when we plant a tree We are al- most putting up a monument to our own memory. When we came to live here we noticed that the :rees surround- ing the house didn’t seem to be nearly as old as the house itself and asked who had planted them. “Oh, Mrs. W. put those in about twenty years ago. always planting something.” Mrs. W. is dead now but what a lot of things she left to keep her memory green. .the spirea bushes by the front door, the spruce trees by the back gate, the cedar hedges, the lilacs behind the houseâ€" they all make us feel grateful affection for her although We never knew her. So let us leave something like that behind us when we go, let us plant a Jubilee tree on Arbor Day and look after it carefully all summer. It would be nice to plant a maple but if that isn’t possible let us plant any kind that is available. Nut trees are interesting to plant. There is an old black walnut tree which was planted by my great grandfather and succeeding generations have planted nuts from that tree and watched them grow into trees. Every rural school should be encouraged to plant a tree when they are having their garden making bee on Arbor day. If the trus- tees will invest in a wire guard to help it through the first few years it will some day be big enough to bear a brass plate saying “Jubilee Tree, 1927.” So let everybody’s slogan for this year be “Plant a Tree.” She was To Owners of Automobiles ' and Trucks Lights, brakes and steering gear must be kept in good/condition for the safety. of drivers and others on the road. REGARDING the ph ical condition of automobiles and trucks, The Highirays Traffic Act makes min provisions which motorists would do Well to understand and observe. . It is increasingly necessary Chat these provisions should be stringently maintained in view of the gm: incense in tourist traffic on our highways, the increase last year of 40,000 cars in Ontario and the more extended use of country roads by our own people. The new speed limit remntly authorized by the Legislature adds to this necessity. Car and truck owners are urged to check their machines frequently and to renew parts which are worn or broken. Headlights should be adjusted regularly. Glazing lights are against the law and a menace to traffic. Simple instructions for the adjustment of headlights and a list of lenses approved by the department, may be obtained free by writing the Motor Vehicles Branch, Department of Highways, Toronto. _ If your lenses are not among those mentioned on the list, it would be well to have them changed at once if you wish to avoid accident on the road and penalty in court. Brakes and steering gear should be in feet condi- tion so that when called upon each part Wlll respond to the will of the driver. The law provides that license numbers must be clean and so placed as to be easily read. A fundamental in the control of motor traffic is that each machine shall be quickly identified. It is the intention of the Department of Highways to take note of the condition of automobiles using the roads. To avoid incom'enicnce to motorists, attention is drawn to the necessity for rigid obedience oi the law, and the penalties for neglect. Ontario Department of Highways The Hon. CEO. 5. HENRY, bfinister
