H. C. have asked me to comment on the fact that they are forming lip reading classes. To learn Dp reading is, I believe, the most practi of of re ef- cal solution the problem deafness. It quires some THE ADULT PROBLEM With the other group of cases the adults the problem is not so much of finding the partially deafened individuals, but of impressing on them the necessity of learning Dp reading.

In the adult it is usually not an acute disease that initiates the deafness, but a very gradually approaching and almost imperceptible failure of acuity. "I believe I'm getting deaf. someone says half-jokingly, a fact that has been evident to acquaintances for some time. Now the difficult thing for these unfortunate people to face and to realize is that in most Instances the condition is progressive, and that they are going to get worse Instead of better. MUST FACE REALITIES In order to make their future, tbey should take up Dp reading at once, while they still have enough hearing to understand the lessons.

Many of them fight this idea, because they consider the condition temporary, and also because it is not as easy to learn Dp reading at forty as it Is for a child. But In facing the reaDtles and in making the effort lies their future happiness. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS A.M.H.: "What is the cause of bolls on the scalp of young infants?

In this machine age it may seem an unnecessary trial when one can just hook a device on the ears. But machines are always unsatisfactory at best, and the greatest effort should be DR. CLENDENING made to free oneself from relying on a machine.

The two groups of people who need instruction in Dp reading children and adults present different problems. DEAFNESS IN CHILDREN The problem in the case of children is to recognize that deafness exists. The highest percentage of both catarrhal and suppurative otitis media occurs in children before the fifth year. At that age the child may not have had any experience ln acute hearing, at least acute enough to understand conversations, and so has no experience to compare with the state of being deaf. He doesnt know anything is the matter with him.

He therefore doesnt point out to teacher or parents that anything is the matter, and he may be allowed to drift indefinitely and be considered a backward and inattentive child In school and at home. Of late years special tests are being appUed to recognize these children In school and to help them compensate. They should be taught Dp reading as early as possible when they are mentally resilient enough to learn readily.

To mane the cake, cream one-hair cup of butter with one and one-fourths cups of sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add one teaspoon of vanilla and blend well.

Twenty-five to fifty percent for food: this amount gives you 25 percent for necessary nutrition for good health. The remaining 25 percent wlll be spent if your income permits, and would be used to vary and extend the original 25 percent, but not to replace any of the necessary basic foods. Rich and poor alike need them (see protective foods below). Buy all your basic supplies first, and with money still left for food buy variety and more eggs, milk and fresh fruit and vegetables.

Session Is Staged in Midst of Windsor Guild's Tlirce-f Day Exhibit; Resolution Asks City Be Considered Vulnerable Area JJOINTING out that the develop ment of Canadian handicrafts could be a great help even to the war effort of Canada, by bringing in the much needed foreign currency, for genuine Canadian-made gifts for the travelers to take home, Mrs.

F. G. Marriott, of Toronto, executive secretary of the Ontario Branch of the Canadian Handicraft Guild, last night addressed a large audience at an open meeting of the Local Council of Women staged right in the midst of the three-day exhibit of the Windsor Handicraft Guild, which continues throughout today, in the auditorium Of the C. H. Smith store.

Able to point to models draped with hand-woven woolens from various parts of Canada, to hooked rugs and beautiful embroideries and sculpture done in Canada on original Canadian motifs, though sometimes employing stitches or other techniques native to other lands work of "New-Cana-dians, Mrs. Marriott gave a vivid picture of the work of the guild. The meeting of the council was held In conjunction with the Windsor Handicraft Guild, Miss Eleanor Bar-teaux, president of the guild and edu cation convener of the Local Council of Women, having arranged the eve-Ing, and taking charge after the short business meeting of the council, during which a resolution was passed unanimously to send a letter to Dr. Glidden. chief of civilian defence, department of pensions and national health, Ottawa, and to the Hon.

Norman A. McLarty, minister of labor, and Mr. Paul Martin, and Mr. C. V.

Waters, city clerk, asking that Windsor be considered a vulnerable area and be given the same consideration and protection being accorded Ottawa, Toronto and Hamilton. The resolution was introduced by Mrs. S. M. Asselstine, citizenship convener of the council.

Also, during the business meeting the membefe approved the executives vote to return present Provincial Council officers, and Mrs. W. H. His-cock, president of the Windsor council, who was in the chair, announced the Senior Mary Grant Bazaar on November 19. at the Masonic Temple, to raise funds for the Queens Cana' dian Fund for Air Raid Victims; and the tea and bazaar at Faith Haven on November 21, and urged all members to support the Soldiers Smokes Fund.

Mrs. Asselstine also suggested, and It was approved by the council, that letters of approval be sent to The Windsor Star and the Salvage Committee complimenting them on their suggestion to make Halloween "collections a part of the salvage project. Mrs. Marriott explained that the Canadian Handicraft Guild will handle sale of work done by all Canadians. provided it meets the high standards set by the guild, and stressed the inexpensiveness of indulging in many of the handicrafts, vegetable dyes, wool and other items concerned being so easy to obtain.

WHAT HANDICRAFTS ARE Answering the question 'What are handicrafts?" Mrs. Marriott said that when the first savage began to scratch a few rude lines on his pottery, or wove a colored thread into his cloth, or carved a crude image of the being he worshipped as a god, he began the history of handicrafts. "A handicraft is any act of special skill and imagination which converts raw materials into a useful article, distinguished by beauty related to the use and purpose of the article. Handicrafts are by no means limited to the traditional crafts of our forefathers, but are developing from time to time as we put materials to work, or conceive new methods of utilizing old materials. A handicraft can be as modern and as sophisticated as any of the arts or industries.

Nevertheless the painted moose skins of the American Indians, the bone and tusk utensils of the Eskimos, the axes and the woven cloth of primitive Europeans, were the origins of many of our crafts. They were developments of mans ingenuity, his power to adapt his environment to his use and com' fort. The man who invented a beautt ful basket for storing or carrying food was a genius, in his age, and contributed revolutionary methods in the social systems of his people. The inventiveness displayed by these originators of handicrafts indicated the self-reliance, and the self-sustaining qualities natural in man, and a nation which produced a great record of such accomplishments, was regarded as a nation of real culture. "Did you ever stop to think what lasts from one generation to the next, or shall I say from one civilization to the next, is this record of achievement In the arts of the people, this is what we see recorded in museums, and we go there to study what generations of the past have contributed to the life of their day.

"The Oxford dictionary says the first or prime meaning of art, is human skill resulting from knowledge and practice. The mitts with a little pattern worked into them, the new gate with a carved latch or an ornamental hinge, the weather vane designed with a touch of humor, these are all works of art in their own small way. Moreover, they indicate a surplus of emotion expended on beauty. The communication of feeling which the craftsman of the past has passed on to us, is art, and it comes from everything he did, his pottery, his saddles, his book bindings, his laces and his metal works among many others. Even his pots and his pans and the Implements for the fields had their quota of beauty and even of humor, in their design.

He expressed the thought that every phase of life was good, and our history to the future generations will, or will not, tell the same story. ART OF LIVING This Is the art of living. The margin of life, the appreciation of quality, in the enjoyment of the simple things, and of beauty wherever you find it. It is a fact that once a person attempts to work with his hands in any medium whatsoever, wood, clay, wool. t0 ln tbat medium, wherever he meets it, a new sensitiveness has been added to liv- ing.

Modem man, most especially the North American, is the first In history empt to live without a personal. practical acquaintance with the plied arts, Mrs. Marriott said. He is the first to expect to be able to buy everything he needs, machine-made, commercially produced. He has In a sense, surrendered his sense of beauty to the manufacturer, in exchange for cheapness and mass production.

Now, horrified by the forbidding mass of tawdry ugliness with hich AFTER THE AVAR "When we enter upon a new kind of world after the war, we will un- one of the most important financial a factors in our war effort, and again and the Canadian Handicraft Guild has been asked to co-operate by showing exhibits as tourist attraction, and by setting up selling centres where tourists can buy beautiful and useful things, made in Canada. Fortunately the Canadian Handicraft Guild has been organized for many years, actually by Act of Parliament in 1906, and since tnen there been branches in most of the provinces operating under provincial charters, and there are now many affiliated organizations and institutions. TEN TEARS OLD "In Ontario we are only about 10 years old. The Canadian Handicraft Guild is a non-profit making organization which exists to encourage, retam, revive and develop Canadian handicrafts and art industries throughout the Dominion, and very much has been accomplished to do just this, so that now we are getting I production of quantity and quality that permits us to respond to these I But we do have a difficulty I in having been a non-profit making organization. We naturally have no I capital, and if we are to be a tourist I attraction and if we are to develop centres, some way must be I found to put this on sound business of basis, entirely separate from our educational or production efforts.

Many of the provinces subsidize the handicraft movement. The Quebec I Government sets aside $70,000 a year -to develop handicrafts, and maintains a director and staff. The Department of Education of New Brunswick embarked three years ago on a very fine project to tram the young people of that province how to use raw wool for which at that time they had no sale, and which has now developed into a tweed industry in the homes and communities. Mount Allison University has played an important part in this development. Everywhere in Nova Scotia you find community projects of this kind led by educational institutions and adult educational groups.

In Alberta the Carnegie Corporation subsidized the movement for three years on a basis of $10,000 a year. This was handled by the i extension department of the univer-1 I sity. In Ontario the development has been slow and difficult. Our educational system and institutions have been pretty well satisfied with things as they are, and the government is only now, aware of us. You see, now they 'need us.

Again and again Canadian trade commissioners ask for exhibits. Publicity people see us as a good story, as indeed we are. We are a tourist attraction. We can show to visitors beautiful examples of the handicrafts of Canada, and we can provide them with typical gifts made in Canada. Think too, what this means to Canadians financially.

We are glad to have this new Italian Women Make Coats for Red Cross afmated, group organized here. You Specific Items That Work can be of great help in advancing this movement. Important as it is to make better living, it is equally valuable to get more joy out of life and this the lowliest craftsman is enabled to do. We look forward with great expectations to the future, and we welcome your contributions, and wish you success. NATTVE SONGS Following the address, Mr.

A. T. St. Pierre, a member of the guild, presented a group of nine girls, 90 percent of whom are from Tecumseh, in three native French Canadian songs, two having to do with spinning wheels, as a native French-Can-adian spinning wheel, more than 200 years old, was one of the most interesting items of the whole magnificent collection of handicrafts on view at the exhibit. Mr.

St. Pierre, assuring the Handicraft Guild here of his own heartfelt SOUP POT All Home Management Advisers stress the value of a Soup Pot. I am sure that readers that have the soup pot habit -will forgive my constant dinning Soup Pot, Soup Pot but it is of major importance where money is scarce because it provides such full nourishment. There need be no waste of minerals, vitamins or flavor from any meat, vegetables or salad ingredients. All the trimmings from lettuce and celery go into it.

All the scraps of leftover vegetables and vegetable waters; all meat scraps and bone trimmings and fat should find their way in never throw them out. I even add leftover chicken skin, chopped finely, and cracker crumbs left from crumbing meat or vegetables, also the liquid from canned salmon or other canned fish. With the lone exception of beet water, there is no limit to the savory ingredients of your soup pot. the only rule being that the pot must be kept cold and every day when you use from it it must be boiled up once. My children have a bowl of soup from it every day for Jfinch.

WHOLE GRAIN BREAD I risk my neck every time I say this but it is still whole and I have said it dozens of times: there is no place for plain white bread in the bread box of a family with a limited income. Buy 100 percent whole wheat bread or dark rye bread or bread made from mixed whole grains. Place an order with your bakers office, telling them your weekly needs. The bakers have many varieties of whole grain breads they will make for you if the order is placed ahead of delivery. Mrs.

Moore Can Ansiver Your Questions QUESTION: I have had many helpful recipes from your columns, so now I am writing you for help. As it is Just about impossible to buy canned pumpkin, I wondered if you could give me a sure recipe for canning pumpkin at home. I would like to can It next week, so could you please print the recipe in this weeks issue? Mrs. Martin Jones, Leamington. ANSWER: I am a great believer in home industry but I do not want you to can pumpkin for the reason you say because there is no shortage so far.

I caUed two grocery whple-sales and one pumpkin packer to find some information, and the reason you had difficulty is because the pack is late. The packers are short of help and are getting the pumpkin in the cans, but the labeling is not all done. strongly advise using commercially canned pumpkin, because it is such a heavy pack it is hard to make heat penetrate the mass and sterilize it to the centre. HOME-CANNED PUMPKIN (I print this but want you to know I use commercially canned pumpkin myself.) Wash, cut, seed and peel pumpkin and boil In as little water as possible until tender. Strain and heat pulp through, boiling and stirring constantly for 10 minutes, pack into jars which have been carefully sterilized, boiling hot, cover with sterile rubbers and lids and tighten top to within turn of tight.

Process in hot water bath pint jars 75 minutes, quarts 90 minutes. Cool as quickly as possible without breaking jars, tighten seal. QUESTION: Please send me the Long-Term Slimming Chart I would like two as I wish to send one to my sister in Boston, Mass. I enjoy your page and will try the recipes that I think my family will like. We have just had a new 8 c.

w. ft. gas refrigerator installed and I will be interested in recipes to fill it and articles telling how to get the most use out of a refrigerator. Also please give advice on cakemaking as you have done on pastry-making. I have had difficulty for the past year in my layer cakes coming out of the oven so thin after raising nicely in the process of baking.

They dont seem heavy but just so shrunken and flat when done. I have a fairly new gas stove with the high oven up on the right side. It is insulated and I have a thermometer on the side but no heat regulator. I have blamed the oven for my poor results as I follow the recipe exactly and use the best of ingredients. Please advise through your page.
