The July meeting of the local Wo- men’s Institute was a most enjoy- able event when the Markham or- ganization was guest of the after- noon. The delightful grounds of Mrs. W.

Use a balanced‘ diet to reduce. Do not eat between meals unless under-nourished. Lemon slices may be used in var- ious ways said Ruth Yeoman as she proceeded to demonstrate just how‘ this was accomplished. Plain or' fancy it all depends on the use of this popular fruit. ' Miss Allison Hood who has just completed a Home Economics course‘ at O.A.C., gave a very illuminating" talk on the course studied, a splen-’ did well balanced course of study' that is planned for the training of young women in thls department of life work. Literature, Physiology,’ Home Nursing Economics of the' Household Mothercraft, Millinery,‘ Horticulture, Laundry, Physical' Training that included folk dancing,’ tap dancing, etc. Allison presented. this talk in a very splendid Way, that' spoke well for the training received.‘ Following the program the usual' social time was spent.

The- roll call re- sponded to with a heusehold hint brought many good suggestions. A‘ litttle lemon juice added to cream‘ will make it whip easier. Spinach' can be cleaned much better in warm‘ water. Miss Emva Rate also had' many good ideas in regard to pic-‘ nics. Plan the picnics well before' hand, have cookies instead of cake.‘ Ice placed around salads will keep‘ them fresh. Thermos bottles are inâ€"' dispensible and old‘ suitcases divided‘ off with pieces of cardboard make‘ good hampers. Oranges may serve‘ both as a fruit and drink. Paper‘ dishes and paper table cloths are a' saving. Arrange your menu to suit' time 01" vear. Never serve salad in‘ November. rather soup. “To tan or not to tan" was ably' discussed by Ida Reesor. Dry pow-‘ (161‘ is preferable to lotions for sun-' burn. In taking sun baths, 10 min- utes is enough the first time, 5 min-‘ utes after. A little sunlight is he'lrph‘ ful to the hair but too much is ruin-' ous. Shampoo the hair more often‘ in summer and use lots of Brillian-‘ tine. For insect bites use a strong" solution of epsom salts. ' The moonlight excursion is the topic of interest just now and who would not welcome a cruise these days with old Sol gomg a. full steam ahead.

Fol- lowing a short business meeting an edition of the Patterson Packet pre- pared by Margaret Mitchell and Wil- bert Walker was read. All joined heartily in games played on the lawn and a bountiful supply of ice cream and cake was enjoyed. ing two solos that were much appre- ciated by his audience and some hints on elementary musical instruction. “Resolved that the co-operatives are more advantage to the farmer than local food dealers" was the in- teresting subject debated by an able quartette of young men. Elliott Har- rington and Jim Darlington on lohe affirmative had more “pros” lined up than the negative defendgrs and came out ahead. Glen Cole and Murray Macklin defended the negative. “The Club Newscaster” was in the able hands of Allan Empringham and Cam Kennedy and was a spicy edition.
