A decided edge of frost - the sharp of the zero mark, met us at the old thermometer outdoors.this

morning. And the smokes from the several chimneys about! ‘It takes the frosted air together with the sunrise to turn them into pic- tures of much charm. How they spiral above the roof-tops, mount- ing into the cold blue in billow- ing vapours — up until the rose- tinted pearly mass dissolves in the heights.

“This is more like Winter!" we said looking oub on the glistening hills. We listened for the winter sounds. How many there are. . . new and old, though we remem-

are missing.

One recalls the “Sounds of Win- ter thus: “Snapping and crack- ling of wood fires built by skaters beside the frozen willow pond. Beginners’ whoops on .the ski slopes. The derisive whistle blast of a cruise ship departing for tro- pical seas. The agonizing strain- ing of trees laboring under a coat of thickening ice. The clinking of a ladle in avsilver eggnog bowl. Tire chains clanking. Church bells calling at twilight over hills blu- ish-white with snow. ,

“The quick whipping flutter of many wings at the snow-swollen

ing a sunflower seed, held se- curely by his feet. The welcdme roar and clank of the big snow- plows. The thump of an axe out by the shrinking woodpile. Sing- ing blades of ice skates flashing

light. The dry rattle of rock salt being sprinkled on icy pavements.

“R a c i n g of engines as real‘ wheels spin on ice and in snow. The soft hiss of sled runners cut- ting deep tracks. The dripping of water under icicles. Crisp crun- ching of ice crusts breaking un- derfoot after a sleet storm. _The wet rush and roar of brooks in a winter thaw. The b1uejay’s harsh call when the feeder is empty. Shrill healthy shouts over where sledding is best.~The angry Dur- poseful voice of a blizzard gone wild.

“Voices. that ask where are mit- tens and overshoes and handker- chiefs. Crunching of ice raising the tides under piers in harbor. The wind-song's humming moan in the tall rigging of a hibernat- ing fleet. The welcome hum of the blower in the car's heater. The soft melody on a crisp night of carillons giving pause in a fev- erish age. The wrenching crash of an ice-burdened limb. The friendly sing-song soliloquy of a radiator steaming under the book slielf. Excited exclamations ov- er the first crocus bright bloom.”

And over and above all these inmemories of young Winters, we hear novif the ring of sleigh- bells along the wintry ways. ‘

And w h a t was there for Rob and Jamie to take home this eve- ning from those barns where it pleases the two flocks to winter, but a first lambkin! Arrived unex- pected; but smart, and according to James obviously one of those younglings “born to live.” ”

History Of_PCInCCI ke, Day , Goes Back For 1000 Years

Pancake Day, which falls on Feb. 18, 1958 is a centuries old traditional holiday. Even older {lian Pancake Day, however, are the pancakes for which it is fam- ous, and the Lenten Season which it immediately precedes. Pancake Day is always the Tuesday be- fore Ash Wednesday, the start of ‘ Although they did not realize what they were -doing, men and women in the Neolithic age (the stone Age) created afsood which was destined to be the main dish for this world-wide celebration. They made, on their crude hot stoves, the world's first pancakes, from ground up wheat and corn.

The pancake was actually the first known form of cooked bread. Naturally, in this third interglac- ial period, nothing was known of leavening agents. -The cave men discovered that moistened ground grain baked on stones made a Very good pastry. This, of course, was the pancake — which still de- lights the hearts of millions’ every day. - '

P31103119 Day, as we know it today, originated in the year 1000 A.D. At this time, an English clergyman, A b-b o.t Aelfric set

the we ek immediately before Lent everyone shall go to his con- fessor and confess his deeds, and the confessor shall so shriv‘e him as he may then hear by his deeds what he is to do.” This proclama. tion by the Abbot resulted in wide observance of “Shrove Tuesday” which soon became, in addition to a period of confessing, a day of merry-making in many parts of the world. Shrove Tuesday, of course, soon became popularly known as Pancake‘Day.

In old England it was quite an event when housewives flocked to churches on Pancake Day to be “shriven" or absolved of their sins. At«the tollingof the bell in the morning, it was customary for the housewife to dnop what-

the confession. Since this was al- so the day for feasting and eat- ing pancakes in small towns, the holiday cakes soon became known

were made on the day the women women were “shriven" of their sins. »

These early pancakes were made of four symbolic ingredi- ents: eggs, for Lenten Sacredness; flour for the staff of life; salt for wholesomneess; and milk farin- nocence. The housewives all made their pancakes according to this precise formula. It also gave

their supplies of surplus fats be- fore entering the Lenten season. One day, over 500 years ago, as legend has it, a wife in Olney, England started bakinghei-' pan- cales rather late. They weren’t quite finished when the church bell rang, but she hurried off to the “shriving”, carrying her grid- dle and pancakes with her. It was this incident, in the year 1445, that led to the start of the fam- ous Olney Pancake Day Race. The villagers were much amus- ed at the sight of this housewife racing through the street, flipping her pancake in the skillet. They decided that a Pancake Day Race from the village up to the church,

contested over a 415 yard course, ‘

should be an annual event.

In Germany, Pancake Day is called “Fastnacht Day,” which literally. translated means “Day before fasting”; while in the Med- iterranean area and in many French and Spanish speaking countries, Pancake Day is :rfer-

literally means “Fat Tuesday." The Scottish version of l"ancalrc Day is known as “Fastern’s E’m’ wh‘ch, to the uni: itiated, mean: “The Eve before the fast.” It‘is a day of great feasting, before the Lenten season.
