Within an hour or two on the opening day most of the game is shot. It sounds like a Civil War and when the children were small I had to keep them indoors as the pellets rattled on the windows. Many a hapless hunter has been chased out of my garden. A few days before the season opened I saw 14 cocks at one time in our hayfield next to the house. Here’s hoping we get a few for our freezer. XXX People like to talk about the prices of everything “going up ” Many consumers complain about grocery bills climbing con tinually. Of course, they are told that many items in their shopping carts are not food but rather paper, metal and plastic products. Several weeks ago, I came across a receipt issued to a distant relative of mine in 1830 by the Lancaster “Examiner.” It showed that he had paid two dollars for one year’s sub scription of their newspaper. This was almost 150 years ago and today you are reading this item from a paper that cost the same - only two dollars a year. Now there is a bargain for you! XXX This year I not only had sweet potatoes to dig but also a double row of Spanish peanuts. The successful venture and thanks were extended to each member. The group was urged to attend the County Convention at the Lancaster School of the Bible. The November meeting will be held Thursday, November 16 instead of the usual Tuesday evening meeting. Hostess will be Mrs Witmer Shearer, Manheim RD4 The evening will feature group talent in a scrapbook meeting * «. k a *.» I I f I M ISratlMMJlilhtlfUtS Material Rewards not Best Policy for Rearing a Child Rewards are better than punishments in disciplining a child, but the rewards should be the parents feelings and reac tions, not some material gift or money, points out James Van Horn, Extension family life specialist at Pennsylvania State University Providing a material reward for acceptable behavior tends to make the child relate gifts and material things with love. And, when the gifts stop, he will wonder if love has stopped, too. Children are not born with the desire to receive presents; they are taught. Taking material things away, or leveling fines for misbehavior also place emphasis on possessions and money. The most Take Advantage of the View When deciding on the location of the living room in your building plans, don’t be bound by the tradition that the room must be located at the front of the house. Mrs. Helen Puskar, Extension home furnishings specialist at Pennsylvania State University says, instead, con sider your family’s preferences and your site. For example, you might have a better view if the room overlooks the side yard pr' backyard. And such a location could permit opening the living room directly to an outdoor living area or patio. kernals are small and sweet. Each plant had 20 to 50 nuts on it. We roasted them and enjoyed the novelty of eating our own nuts. My mother tells me that when she went to school the students took time in the Fall to gather Chestnuts from nearby woods as a class group. BARBER OIL CO.

Often, the child who has been rewarded with objects and punished by having possessions taken away uses the same techniques with his parents and friends. He has learned to negotiate in material terms. In school, most young children find learning an exciting ex perience, and their parents’ praise at their new skills is reward enough. It is the parent who may complicate the picture by giving some material reward Tips on Cooking Pork and Poultry Always cook all pork and poultry thoroughly but don’t overcook and reduce its palatability. Use your meat thermometer as a guide. Fresh pork should be cooked to 170 degrees and fresh poultry to 180 to 185 degrees, advise Extension consumer specialists at Penn sylvania State University. Washing Metal Utensils in Dishwasher You can clean most metal cookware safely in an automatic dishwasher. However, Extension home management specialists at Pennsylvania State University point out that water with high mineral content, as well as certain detergents, can cause darkening of some metal sur faces. Porcelain color coating, thermo-setting polyimide coatings and non-stick interior finishes are generally dish washer safe. To be sure, check the manufacturer’s insturctions before washing your utensils in the dishwasher.

Then as the child grows older, he finds it difficult to become motivated to learn unless there is a promise of some prize or gift.
