Others will appear at the apprOpriate times. .Clip and save these for reference. .. IN LUMBER, TRIM, SASH, DOORS, ASPHALT PRODUCTS, GYPROC, TEN TEST, INSULATION This is one of the most palatable vegetables to store for future use. Follow these directions: (1) Use only the tender shoots, trimming the woody part well back. (2) Wash and drain well to remove all sand. (3) Blanch â€",see footnote â€"â€" from two to three min- utes depending on the size of the shoots. (4) Drain well before packaging. __ (5) Pack dry, We prefer packaging in the Freez-R- Rap paper in bundles-sufficient for one meal. (6) Rush it to your locker plant to be frozen as soon as possible. ‘Blanchillg is the killing of bacteria before storing. We suggest the use of a calmer about three parts full brought to a rapid rolling boil. Submerge the vegetable, either In a wire seive or cheese-cloth bag, until well covered by the water.‘ This will lower the temperature of the water. Bring it back to a rolling boil as quickly as possible and then time for the blanching period as named. Remove immediately and plunge into ice cold water, bringing it to room temperature. FREEZING HINTS SERVING RICHMOND HILL 1‘ FOR 19 YEARS ASPARAGUS BLANCHING LIMITED RICHMOND HILL AND DISTRICT “Wyn”, v-.. I have known that man for over thirty years and he was always the same; cheerful and friendly. Changes have come so gradually that I’ve hardly noticed them. He has slowed up a little, doesn‘tgvalk so erect and â€"â€" well, he pulls his thins hair across the surface of his dome. That is, he makes a little go a long way Bless his heart, I’m beginning to do that myself, although I know it's a losing battle._ ‘ALT.__. ..t‘r\1> giefifiing 9115-" Nome. Wm“. He’s stepping out; quitting after more than fifty years of steady work; not always with the same firm al- though he has served his present employers thirty-five years. He gets a' modest pension and from now on he will have a lot of time on his hands. He will be able to do some of the things he_has longed to do. In ancient times old age was dreaded. It was taken for granted that the “Slough of Despond,” was at the end of life â€" not at the be-‘ ginning as Bunyan has depicted it. Vhat the people of long ago hoped for was perpetual youth. They be- lieved what a modern cynic has said: “After a certain age there is nothing left but the pleasures of the table." A Roman philosopher wrote: “As long as the fates permit, let us en- joy our lusts." Millions agreed with the sentiment: “Let us eat and drink ‘for to-morrow we die." Many' of the wisest and best thinkers of the past accepted this melancholy View. Life is better for old people than in ancient times, perhaps not so much as we think, but still an improve- ment. Just think of reading. A century ago the percentage of old people who had enough education to read was small â€" among working people less than five percent. Books were a luxury and newspapers fewer and not so well edited. a I'; auu uv v uv Then there is the boon of radio. Of course there are programmes we don’t like but we don’t have to listen to them. There is endless enjoy- ment to be had in others. I shall not forget the picture of old people I once saw in Newfoundland, far re- moved from a railroad, listening to Church services and musical treats and loving every minute'of it. When a number of leading person- alities were asked if they would like to be starting over again, most of them emphatically said no. They had had their day and were satisfied to leave it at that. Most of these men were in retirement and were enjoying it. One man said that if he had life to live over again, he would probab- ly commit the same mistake; if (not, he Would make others â€" probably worse. ‘ “My old friend, who has just s’tep- ped‘ out, has remained good-natured and optimistic. Life has not em- bittered him. Older people outlive h'at‘e‘ ' It is not always so but it should be. Life ought to teach us understanding and toleration. Old violins produce richer music and with less effort, than new ones. Our Sympathies ought to grow war- mer and our judgments more .mellow as time goes on. This has happened to most of the old people 1 know, and it is fairly general. One of my favorite verses in the Bible is that promise in the First Psalm: “His leaf also shall not wi ther.” In nature the sweet green ness of early leaves, passes into darker shades as summer comes, to be followed by the mellowness of autumn. But 'here is a. glorious promise. Old age may have its en- thusiasm and hopes; even more thrilling than those of earlier days. There need not be cynicism and des- pair for “The trees of the Lord are full of sap.” We may say with Robert Browning: “The Best is yet to be.” Our quotation to-day is by Robert Browning: “All service is \the same with God . . . . there is no last nor first.” HARRY E.
