Kingly Bread Man

OCTOBER 9. 1953 -

In his traditional outfit, adorned with pearly buttons. Alfred West, the ”Pearly King of Kent", carries an ovorsized loaf of bread to the

St. Magdalene Church in London,

England. He is bringing the leaf

to the annual harvest festival of the "Pearly Kings and Queens". '

A Sunday school teacher was telling the story of Moses to 1 class of wide-eyed five-year-oids.

"Now.'.; she asked dramatically. "who do you suppose the beautiful Egyptian princess found to take care of the little boy she had dis- covered in the bulrushes"?

Without hesitation a. little girl answered: "A baby sitter."

Q. When one is smoking at the table in a restaurant, and there is no ashtray, is it all right to use 9. plate or saucer for the ashes?I

It is an imposing machsnc. mostly metal as we see it. a contrivanoe of lengthy pipes and belts and gearing. It's arrival was not unexpected.

We heard of its anticipated com- ing from Gage who sometimes mis- sing to the outdoors for a time suddenly appears beside us in the pantry to ask for a cookie or "a piece of bread with butter on it first, then over that molasses and on top butter again!"

"That machine of ours," he said soberly, "is too slow altogether! I mean she's not big enough to handle what we want her to these days."

"No? Well, she should be fast enough. Isn't the granary filling?"

"Oh yes. but not nearly fast enough," he replied.

"And one time farmers beat out their sheaves with flails" we of- fered. '

"I know" he chuckled. "but" with condescention, "how many would they have!"

"Do you remember a thresher that gave grain and chaff to- gether? And that had to be win- nowed by the fanners?" we tested - James” powers of remembrance re- cently when we chatted of the If- fairs of the harvest.

"No", he replied, "do you?"

"Yes," we nodded.

"You've been taken in on her

Two things awaited our return from vacation-n dry begonln. ro- proechfully dropping it: leaves on the dining room table, and 1 pile of mail. '

The mail contained such things as recipe for "Angel: on Hono- booh" from the federal fisheries department, which looked interest- ing. Here it is

"Ingredients-2A lcellops or oys- ferl. one half teaspoon salt. bacon strips. Sprinkle scallops with salt. Cut bacon strips in half, roll scallops in bacon and secure with toothpickl. Bake in I very hot oven 450 degrees F. for 5 minutes. Bestc during baking with fat from pan. Serves six."

Denial Discovery

In the next envelope was news of the B. C. Dental Association at Vancouver. It said:

"Orthodontists have commented on an unusual disfigurement of the lower jaw of young children recently. Puzzled about the cause, one specialist happened to associ- ate the problem with the picture of his own children. lying on the floor, chins propped up on their lists watching television.

the Canadian Anocleti of Con- lumen bulletin.

"Two factors are responsible for tough meat," it reports. "One is 'merbclling' or distribution of fat through the muscle fibre: and the other is the amount and nature of the connective tissue present.

"The nnagcrnent of certain ho- tell in Florida attribute their ten- der steaks and roasts to a locking in fresh juice of papaya melon prior to cooking. .This juice con- tains enzyme 'pepeln'l which has the property of digesting protein material such as meat.

"This melon encyme, in pow- dered form. is the active com- ponent in meat tenderizers. The produce is usually sold in a brown glass bottle equipped with shaker. It also contains salt and I. dex- trose to keep the'enzyme dry. stabilize it and give added flavor to the cooked meat."

But there was nothing in the mail that told how to cheer up a languishing begoniu.

A TABLET OONTAHVQ. CHILDREN CANNOT OPEN

I .

Most of us are inclined to blapie parents for carelessness when we read that I. smallrchild has been poisoned by swallowing tablets con- taining drugs which. in ordinary dosage. cause no trouble.

A timely article on making the container of harmful drugs safe for clvldrem to .handle appeared re- cently in the Canadian Medical As- sociation Journal, written by Dr. D. F. Cross, Montreal.

"with its elegant and palatable pills. tablets and medicated candles, the drug industry has largely suc- ceeded in rendering bitter pills an, anachronism. But these modern medical presentations, sugar-coet- ed, often flavored and brightly col- ored, have brought a. new and growing danger into the home." In former days, pills and tablets were so bitter that much coaxing by physician and parents was neces- sary before the youngster wu in- duced to take them. whereas they are now so attractive and tasty that the youngster may actually de- mand them.

While a locked drug or medicine cupboard well out of the toddler's reach (3 to 3 years usually) may help prevent accidents, it is ecce- Sary to have in cover on th con- taincr that cannot be removed by the youngster. Dr. Cross points out that safety lies in placing an ab. staclo between the tablet and the child. "What therefore is needed is a. safety container as foolproof and kiddie-Proof. as human ingenuity can devise and which. in fact. does place an obstacle between the tab- let and the child."

A container is now reported which appears to answer this need. "The principle of its design is such that a. small child is unable to open it. even a bright child with strong hands. This container con- sists of an aluminum tube filled WW1 0- IMP enclosure, which re,- mains attached to the body of the container even when it is opened. An adult by reading the directions can open the container but no nor- mal child under five or, in some OM65. up to B or 0 years of age, can solve the puzzle for himself. Not one in a hundred would have either the handspan or sufficient strength of finger to open the lid. even if previously shown how to do it."

Dr. Cross concludes his article as follows: "I believe the 'Kiddi-pr-uf' container to be new in principle, hygienic. amazingly simple in handling and almost 100 per cent safe at pre-school age. It is hoped that pharmaceutical houses will soon package all their tempting medicinal pills and tablets in these containers, and that they will be available also to mothers and guardians in the not very distant future from retail druggists."
