South Poplar Mennonite Church,
decorated with flowers, made an
attractive setting Sunday after-
il noon for the wedding of Rosella,
‘i |daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jacob

t.)son of Mr .and Mrs. Aug. B.

Edwards of Chilliwack performed

nearly 1000 friends.

“Imagine it taking a
war to set us right”

Husband: “There’s one thing we can thank Hitler for.
He’s got us saving at last.”

Wife: “Yes! Imagine! Until it became a positive

duty we certainly never managed to put any-

thing by each week.”

Husband: “I think it’s partly because these War Savings
Certificates are so simple to buy.”

Wife: “You mean the idea of getting the office to

deduct a regular amount each week from

your salary?”

Husband: “Yes! And how they’re mounting up! Quite
a nest-egg when you count the interest
they’re earning.”

Wife: “Well the more the merrier, I say! There are

lots of things we'll need the money for, as the

years roll by!”

The help of every Canadian is needed for Victory. In these days
of war the thoughtless selfish spender is a traitor to our war effort.
A reduction in personal spending is now a vital necessity to re-
lieve the pressure for goods, to enable more and more labour and
materials to be diverted to winning the war. The all-out effort,
which Canada must make, demands this self-denial of each of us.

gowns and carrying bouquets of
dahlias. Little Ilene Doerksen

man. Ushers included Geo. Weins,
Ab. Nichol, H. Funk, and Mr.
Kroeker.

Ments were served in the church
hall. Each table was decorated

Doerksen and Mrs. Schmidt, eath
wearing navy blue with corsages
of gladiolus. In the evening ap-
proximately 80 guests were enter-

R.C. ARTICLES OVERSEAS
Because of the untiring and
patriotic efforts of hundreds of
thousands of Canadian volunteer
Red Cross women workers ap-
proximately four million articles
of clothing and hospital supplies
were shipped Overseas during the
first six months of the year. Not
only was the labour of making
these articles truly “a labour of
love,” but it has inspired a renew-
al of hope on the.part of the re-
cipients. From an _ economic
standpoint the volunteer work has
increased the value of the Red
Cross suplies one and one half
times their cost.

CO-EDS PLAN WORK

Girle attending the University
of British Columbia will no long-
er spend their spare time between
lectures gossiping over cafeteria
tables, nor will the boys complain
that girls have more time to
study because of compulsory mili-
tary male training. Instead,
while the boys are drilling in the
stadium girls will be busy sewing
and knitting for the Red Cross.
A room has ben reserved in the
Brock Memorial Building for this
purpose. Last year the University
students raised almost $3,000.
FLOWER SHOW

ADVERTISING PAYS

That weekly newspaper advertis-

the buyer is a truth that can be
proven time and again. The mer-
rewarded by making
WeeKly ¢ontacts with old customesr

wife is assured of quality merch

So great is the demand for wool
that much graded wool has to be
imported.

Recipes Utilizing
Green Tomatoes

GREEN TOMATOES

As the chilly fall winds usher in
thoughts of winter, the Canadian
homemaker looks for ways and
means of using the many surplus
products found in her kitchen gar-
den.

The large quantities of green
tomatoes left on the vines, have
always presented a problem to
her, and have too often been al-
lowed to waste.

The Consumer Section, Market-
ing Service, Dominion Department
of Agriculture, suggests the follow-
ing methods of storing and pre-
serving these nutritious fruits:—
STORAGE

Tomatoes picked in a mature
green condition will keep for a
relatively long period under satis
factory storage conditions. Such
green tomatoes must be sound and

free from growth cracks, skin
punctures, insect and freezing in-
jury.

Each green tomato should be in-
dividually wrapped in paper (news-
paper will do) and placed in a
closed box or drawer.

Another method is to pull the
vine before any signs of frost in-
jury are apparent, and suspend
the entire vine from the ceiling of
the storeroom.

Tomatoes stored in the above-
mentioned manner should be main-
tained at a temperature of about
50°, and under favourable condi-
tions will continue to ripen until
Christmas.
