Married peo- ple are happier than single people, women are happler than men, and small-town resi- dents are happier than people who live in big cities, according to a Gallup Poll which asked North Americans to rate them- selves as to how happy they were, In a nationwide survey of 1,516 adults, those who- indi- cated they were “very happy" were: e Forty-eight per cent of the women and 36 per cent of men, e Forty-five per cent of married people and 83 per cent of single people. © Forty-five per cent of those who lived in smaller cities or tural communities and 36 per cent of inhabitants of big cities (million population or more). e Forty-six per cent of people with a college back- ground, 42 per cent of those with a high school background, and 29 per cent of people whose ppeat ‘ tissue, adorned the yard of Cy and Olga Fillls on Ninth Avenue, South, Friday + morning marking the couple's 25th wedding anniversary.

Do not make the mistake of using young frying chicken for this—it will turn out tough and tasteless. Watch for peri- odie specials on fowl. It is easiest if you cook the chicken the day before and assemble it the next morning. Old Fashioned Chicken Pie Cut up one 4 Ib. fowl and place in a large pot with 1 tep. of salt and one celery stalk. Barely cover with cold water and bring to a boil. Turn down and simmer until chicken is tender (usually 2 - 2% hours). During the last half hour add 14 small white peeled onions. (If leaving overnight, refrigerate.) Strain and reserve the stock. Take the meat off the bones and place in a casserole along with the onions. Melt 7 tbsp. of butter and New Peril Is Linked To Estrogen New peril for women who smoke has been ascribed to estrogen, the female sex hor- mone. Previously it has been found that smokers who take oral contraceptives containing estrogen run a higher risk of heart attack or stroke. New data show that smok- ing women who take estrogen ® for non-contraceptive reasons also run a greater risk of heart attacks, the Journal of the American Medical Association reported. The risk was linked to women under 46 years old. No such association was found in older women. g add 7 thsp. flour. Mix to make a smooth paste. Slowly add 1 cup milk and when thick gradually add 2 cups of the reserved stock, Stir until thickened and add salt and pepper to taste plus: 1/2 tsp. mace 1/2 tsp. Worcestershire 2-3 tbsp. sherry Pour the sauce over the chicken, Place plain pastry over the top, prick it and bake at 450¢ for 30 minutes. As this is a deep dish pie the pastry must be supported, You may have a china blackbird for this pur- pose. If not, just place a pyrex custard cup in the centre of the casserole, It will work just as well. ‘ Note: If you do not wish to bother peeling all those onions, use the small canned ones. They do not require cooking. The following recipe tis especially good for a crowd. The key to this recipe is the fact that the barbecue sauce is made with wine. Barbecue sauce for beef is made with vinegar. The strong flavor of beef goes well with vinegar but the delicate flavor of chicken would.merely be overpowered by it. Wine on the other hand enhances chick- en. Oven Barbecue Chicken 2 thsp. margarine 3 minced garlic cloves 3/4 cup ketchup 2 thsp. brown sugar © 1 tbsp.

The two main speakers were John J. Verigin and John Stoochnoff. . Peter Soloveoff, editor of the Union of Spiritual Com- munities of Christ periodical “Iskra,” confirmed the need to continue the work of the com- mittee begun in January 1975. The “difficult, turbulent times we live in warrant the greatest concern to find the proper answers to freeing our- selves from inconsistencies, from ignorant concepts and fanaticism in our midst,” he said. ‘One Man's Opinion for Granted Taken He said children, compre- hending their spiritual heri- tage, must not be afraid to confess their origin.

Sgt. Eli Tetrault, head of the general investigation sec- tion of the Nelson RCMP de- tachment, said last Thursday ie was. not surprised by the haul, which includes some 1,100 plants, ranging in height from one to 12 feet. + “I was not really sur- prised,” he said, “but we had hoped to find a large supplier. But I guess some have already harvested.” He said the helicopter had been ranging over West Koote- nay skies last week in search of marijuana patches, with caches identified in the Grand Forks, Kaslo, Christina Lake and Crescent Valley areas. Al- though the helicopter will not be staying in Nelson, Tetrault predicted that it would be back in future. “It's a good form of en- forcement,” he commented. “I'd like to see it continue.” Asked if nabbing pot grow- ers in remote areas of the Kootenays was worth the ex- although he predicted that would soon happen. Those found with marijuana on their property can be subject to. charges ranging from posses- sion, to cultivation and to a much more serious crime of possession for the purpose of trafficking. The estimated 1,500 pounds of marijuana—which Tetrault stressed is a very conservative estimate—has not been collected in one place, but remains in various RCMP de- hin the dis- pense to taxp o and maintaining a helicopter, Tetrault replied, “Legal people and people higher up than me have decided that it is worth it.” No charges have been laid, trict. It will be held there until required as evidence in court, after which it, will either be burnt here or sent to Ottawa to suffer the same fate.
