[" 1.x ) > THE LEADING ADVERTISING MEDIUM OF THE DISTRICT OF BEAUHARNOIS SIXTY-SIXTH YEAR C EXHIBITION AT wi STE-MARTINE CONVENT Household Science Schoo! Amazes Hundreds of Women And Men.FURTHER EXPANSION.200 Girls Benefit by Courses Being Taught.Saturday was gala day at the Ste.Martine Convent.The day marked the annual demonstration of the School of Household Science which is a branch of the institution.The convent is a large building and its property holdings are being extended from time to time to take care of the new additions to the curricula.Nine years ago it was decided to open a school of Household Science and it has proved to be a wonderfully successful adventure.During the past year the convent has been attended by 200 pupils, 175 of whom boarded at the institution.It has been said that Convent pupils have not a healthy look, but this is one accusation that cannot be made against this institution.The health of the children is particularly cared for and this is largely done through diet.Being a Science School the culinary department make a study of this subject, and the school as a whole benefits accordingly.Twenty Sisters reside at this institutioin.Mother Mary Georgiana being in charge of the Ste.Martine Convent and Mother Louis de Gonzague Provincial of the diocese of Valleyfield.jointly administer the school with outstanding success.The scholars as they enter the convent in September are first taught how to do plain sewing.followed by knitting.then dress making and fancywork, etc.The pupils are taught household science ten hours per week along with their regular studies.Pupils who wish to specialize in one department or another, are permitted to do so.Six girls for instance are devoting their time to domestic manufacture and they in turn are taught how to operate the looms and make all kinds of garments.The exhibits of these six girls were shown in a room by themselves.The exhibits of each girl were displayed on a table by itself and proved to be sufficient attraction to equal that shown at many fall fairs.The display of work done by the 200 pupils was shown on the third floor of the building and it occupied all the space provided by the four class rooms.The display proved remarkable and was praised, and pro- vad a marvel to the hundreds of women and men who visited the institution on Saturday.To the ground floor we were directed and then viewed with interest the work accomplished by the nine girls who were specializing in Domestic Science.The display of canned and preserved fruits and vegetables would surely demand first prize at any fall fair.In canned beets vinegar was not used as is usually the custom.but water.The Sisters contend that being canned in this manner the flavour is preserved and are more healthy.Practically everything that can be grown in this district was preserved or canned and every bottle was a sample of par excellence.The canning of corn on the cob was the only vegetable that disappointment had ever occurred and the reason is known, and shall never happen again said the Mother Superior.Corn must be picked fresh from the garden and canned immediately.therefore people who have not a way of securing corn in this manner need not attempt to can it.Chicken and tongue were can- ied, and in both cases very little of the stock was left in the bottle, possibly % an inch of stock would be the limit.separately and could be used aiong with some of the canned vegetables for soups.' The display of cooked meats.fish.salads, pastries, cakes candy and bread made one believe they were in one of the large city delicatessen shops.The display was beoautiful and most appetizing.From this notable display.the party was conducted into the kitchen which was.as one would expect, the essence of cieamni- ness.The charts that adorned the walls showed the various cuts of meats and the proper diet according to the season for the human bods Short Course in Summer.We were informed that in connec- lion with the School of Ho\"sehold Science there is a Short Course this vear from July 8th to 18th, opes.co School Teachers in the Province oi Quebec.Under a grant from ti» Government this School is able offer to twenty school teachers reith- er French or English) ten days tuition in cooking and sewing for only $2.00.board included.The Goverr- ment also supplies two extra teachers.This is indeed a rare Opportunity and every local teacher should make haste to profit by the offer.Before leaving the Convent every visitor was served with refreshments.which were served by the pupils.Mgr.Allard of Ste.Martine is mos\u2019 favourably known throughout this District by a great many people.He has taken a keen interest in the School of Household Science and for that very reason purchased 10 acres of land adjacent to the Convent property and has donated il to the Couvent.This lot of land along with the six acres previously owned by the convent is to be underdrained and on it will be grown all kinds of small fruits that can be grown In this District.It will be the demonstration garden for the Convent pupils and each pupil will be given a piot to care for.One might be inclined to believe that the pupils were only allowed to work at this convent, and had no time for play.but such is not the sase.The playgrounds are well equipped with swings, etc.which have been purchased with the $400 that The stock was bottled: to\u2019 REBEKAHS CONGREGATE Canon Shatford Addresses Order at First Annual Church Service.Thursday evening the Rebekah Lodge members met in St.Andrew's Presbyterian Church when Canon A.P.Shatford of Montreal, addressed the Order and their many friends in attendance.HUNTINGDON.QUE.THURSDAY, MAY 30TH.1929 C.J.Rolfe Successful In McGill Law Exams Mr.Clayton J.Rolfe, only student from the district in the McGill Faculty of Law has achieved success in all his examinations.He was accorded first class honors in Criminal Law and Pro- VICTIM TO at McGill, having graduated with |committed suicide in a barn at his Canon Shatford is weil known previous occasions addressed congregations in Huntingdon.His discourse on Thursday evening was based on the text taken from \u201cGen.2-18\" He pointed out how it was that Woman and Man were the necessity of one another and that for years woman was not accorded the standing of man in the various paths of life but today she has insisted upon her recognition and has earned it.In politics, women are in parliament but in this respect Canon Shatford did not grant his whole approval and especially of some of the views expressed by the one lone woman member in Canada.The nual church services aud it is to be hoped that their future services will be accorded with such wonderful speakers as is Canon Shatford.The Rebekah choir led in the singing while Mr.C.L.Hall presided at the organ.After the church service the Reb- ekahs and their guests adjourned to the Lodge Rooms where refreshments were served, and a social time enjoy- e The \"YU met in the United Church parlor on Monday evening, May 27th.About 30 members and friends were present.This was the annual meeting and the reports given by the of- licers and Superintendents were satisfactory, The election of officers resulted as follows:\u2014Hon.President, Mrs.T.Kelly;
