Mrs Kreider created ceramic
looking candle holders by using
various shapes and sizes of jars,
dishes and flat lids as the basic
construction. These were
arranged attractively, glued
together, and covered with
papier mache Others were
finished by using an antique
finish which produced a wood
effect
The demonstration on candle
decorating used pre-purchased
tapers of medium length, then
using whipped wax in a variety of
colors, the candles were
decorated by applying layers of
the wax, a small amount at a
time These were finished by

we live and want the privilege of
hunting.
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.

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!

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

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.

meaningful punishment a young
child can have is the knowledge
that he has deeply disappointed
his parents, points out Van Horn.
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.

for good work. 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.
Acceptance and affection are
the best rewards a parent can
give, whether the child is 18
months or 18 years, emphasizes
Van Horn.
