REFLECTIONS ‘her getting my apples the hard way. I wouldn't have minded this so much, but what got’ me down, and I do mean down, was the disputed ownership of the tree, Furtt it was very BY : GLADYS COLLINSON Jelly making, to the average housewife, is a seasonal uncom- plicated, soul-satisfying process, which normally takes several hours to accomplish. Then again there. are ‘others who find it slightly more complicated, but just as soul-satisfying. As any- one knows, jelly-making is‘ one task which requires some thought and ‘care if you expect to obtain first-grade jelly. To be really soul-satistying, it must be that clear amber color and be the consistency of, -- well, apple jelly. Without this thought and care, one is apt to get a gooey, sticky,. plum-colored mess with the consistency of a poor grade of mucilage. I know! One of the first considerations in making crab-apple jelly is the procuring of crab-apples. This isn't always as easy as it sounds. Good crab-apples ‘are not always stocked at the corner store — at least not our corner store! You either must-know someone who owns a tree, or at least know someone who knows someone else who ewns a tree. The next step is to coerce, bribe or buy some youngster into picking them for you, The easy- to-get-at ones are naturally all gone by the time you get the yen to make jelly. Of course it is pos- embarrassing being caught up the wrong tree, Carefully climbing down from my lofty, and some- what precarious position, I found arguement to be of no avail, The owner.” insisted I was up’ the wrong tree. All of which helps to prove that jelly-making is no mean task — it takes stamina and courage, Cooking ‘the darn things‘is the next step, but this is by far the easiest stage of the game. After boiling till mushy, you simply put in a bag.and let drip. Only be sure that the dripping con- tainer is large enough. There is nothing that will take wax off the kitchen. floor quicker and easier than pools of apple juice. Also be sure the jelly bag is hole- proof. Gobs, of pulp make for poor jelly, I’ve heard, Next comes measuring of juice and sugar, cup for cup. Why in the world it can’t be dishpan for dishpan, I've never quite discov- ered, So I measure cup for cup. Its a dreary process, However, ‘finally having that done, there is nothing left to do except to watch it doesn’t boil over, which it invariably does (while I-dash madly about look- ing for jars — I've forgotten the blame things up until now). And so jelly-making season is over. I view with pride and a certain grim satisfaction, my handiwork. The cook book says, “Making jelly in simple, easy. stages.” I wonder just how simple and easy one has to bel.- sible to pickc them yourself, but the act of b: ina t holding a pail with one hand and clutching the branches for dear life with the other, slows one down considerably. Even this, though, is not enough to discour- age the ardent jelly-maker. ,One year I. distinctly remem- | TE AHWAN FUEL FOR THE BEST IN COAL PHONE 2251 or 4191 - Oftice — Arrow Motors Casilegar Sash & Door WINDOWS — DOORS =.

The Need for Schools © There ‘is an old,old story. whieh tells of a merchant of Calcutta, who. having .bedn ‘warned: by a soothsayer that, he would soon meet. Death, shortly. afterward saw Death walking in the city and fled , with’ all haste across mountain and plain to. faraway Bagdad, Fancying himself.free, he went for a‘stroll through the market place, but hardly ‘had’ he gone ‘more than a few paces when who should-he meet,. but Death. “Well met” said Death, “But, But," stammered, the un- happy “rT you equal opportunity of education. But we know that in actual fact, this boast is not true or at. least has not been: true, . particularly: for children from ‘outside areas, antl the new high school was uilt. This lack of opportunity is un- doubtedly one of the reasons for the difficultles peculiar: to. this area, The availability of a good high school on the other hand, has in only. three short years, Fouleally improved the difficul- "ithe most impressive example is the increase’ in the number of were in Calcutta.” “Quite true,”anawered. Death, “but I had an appointment with you this day in Bagdad.” The’ people of Castlegar also have an appointment. which’ is just as inevitable as that of the merchant — the need for more school: space. We can run away from the issue in hopes of ‘sav- ing money or in hopes of avoid- ing spending it. Last week we pointed out that already the high ‘school had come, around for its' third migra- tion. Already three classes were divorced from the main school and the enrolment is almost’ 150 over its intended capacity. And the wartime crop of babies. has not really begun to he felt at the high school level, Before the building of the pres- ent high school, delay and split- ting of theischool causéd increased administrative. difficulties, . re- duced effiicency .‘and increased: costs for. rental and transporta- tion. “Money” was - -thrown * away. With the much ‘larger ‘student body and, rapidly rising: enrol- ment ‘today, costs, difficulties and wastage: will increase pro- portionately ‘with any delay. Since space for classes is al- most at a limit now, the next ob+ vious step_is the shift system in the schools. That is, dividing the’ ‘| deals In. pre- vious years one or two students from this district would go to university each year. This year there are at ‘least eight and six of them.are of Doukhobor origin. Can we afford one moment's extra delay? _Let’s have our thinking’ grow “with our district. NOTICE ‘Cc. M. & S.
