To help you relax and be a reasonably unconcerned hostess to holiday callers, party plan ners at the American Can com pany suggest a "social shelf" in the kitchen. Stock it with an as sortment of foods which can be turned into snacks or quick meals, in case the "only stopped for a minute" caller decides to stay for dinner. For tidbits to go with drinks, stock a versatile supply of spreads cheese, meat, fish to be teamed with crackers or melba toast rounds. Tiny sau sages and frankfurters always are a hit, especially when served from a chafing dish, and with a dip of hot mustard sauce. Be sure too, to stock some of the canned carbonated beverages so the small-fry guests can be in cluded in the festivities or for grownups who do not want al coholic drinks. To avoid frenzy If a guest stays on to dinner, work out in ad vance two or three simple menus and then stock the "makings." Canned hamburgers, a canned whole chicken, chili con came, chicken a la king, spaghetti and meat stews all can be fixed in a hurry Scoop out halved evocados leaving shells intact. Dice avo cado combine with shrimp and vinaigrette dressing. Serve in shells for a hearty and festive luncheon or dinner salad. f7 jj 3 j UCTIOBS Everyone loves to spend busy hours in the kitchen at Christmas time making goodies to have on hand when friends drop in to help celebrate the holidays. It's fun, too, to spend time making cookies that are pretty to look at and in keeping with the season. Poinsettia Cookies take a little extra time to make but the divi dends are worth every minute they look pretty and taste so yummy. Rolled oats is added to the recipe to give them a rich nut like flavor and the colored sugar that's sprinkled on top seems to set each cooky aglow. Serve your guests these pretty little treats at Christmas time and add a warmth of hospitality to your holiday , festivities. Poinsettia Cookies i Makft ti cokie$ 2 cups sifted enriched flour 34 cup shortening, soft 1 cup sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla . 1 Z teaspoon salt 3 tablespoons milk 12 teaspoon soda 1 cup rolled oats (quick or 12 teaspoon cinnamon old fashioned, uncooked) Sift together flour, sugar, salt, soda and cinnamon into bowl. Add shortening, vanilla and milk; beat until smooth, about 2 min utes. Stir in oats. Roll out on lightly floured board or canvas to 18-inch thickness. Cut 21 star-shaped cookies with floured cutter. Using a cardboard pattern, cut 5 cooky petals for each star. Place stars and petals on separate lightly greased cooky sheets. Sprinkle with red sugar. Bake in moderate oven (375'F.) 10 to 12 minutes for stars; 8 minutes for petals. Cool. To assemble poinsettias, place 12 teaspoon stiff yellow confec tioners' sugar frosting in center of each star cooky. Arrange 5 petals in circle with bases firmly planted in frosting, leaving a little yellow showing in center. Help Yourself to Happiness Readers are Invited to Dresent their problems. All queries will receive Individual attention and should he accompanied by a stamped, self-addressed envelope, directed to MARY HARRIS StlKKRT. M. A.. Department of Educa tion. The AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF FAMILY RELATIONS, S2S7 Sunset Boulevard, Los Angeles 27, California. "I have a terrible time trying to reach decisions," confesses Marie. "I seem to see so many sides to every question that I become confused. I go back and forth from YES to NO and then from NO to YES so often that I wear myself and everyone around me to a frazzle. I wish I could learn how to make up my mind!" "I know women are supposed to be changeable and unable to know their own minds," moans exasperated Jim, "but Marie's hopping around the simplest problem without ever lighting on a firm answer drives me crazy. Honestly, 1 don't think our marriage can take much more of this yes-no, no-yes stuff." The inability to reach a deci sion on relatively simple ques tions can indeed prove damaging, if not downright disastrous, to marriage and profession. Accord ing to Dr. Paul Popenoe, general director of the American Insti tute of Family Relations in Los Angeles, your power to make a decision does not depend entirely on the difficulty of the question itself, but rather upon your con fidence in your ability to make a right choice, whether it in volves what to order in a res taurant or whom to marry. You cannot decide in a clearcut man ner because, deep within, you fear that your judgment is bad, no matter what you do. Much of this indecision lies deeply hidden in the past, perhaps in a childhood dominated by strong willed adults or aggressive play mates. Now, as an adult, you must overcome your weakness Club Announces Christmas Dance Double H Square Dance club will hold a Christmas square dance at Moose hall Saturday, December 22, beginning at 8:30 p.m. Special entertainment will be several "blacklight dances" during the evening.

DO YOUR CHRISTMAS SHOPPING Three Floors of Distinctive Gifts Main Floor Balcony 2nd Floor Shop them all! Open 'til 9 p.m. by remembering that your inde cision is an emotional pattern borrowed from the past. It need no longer dominate you! Start telling yourself that you WILL be able to work out your own problems and then DO so, again and again. Begin with unim portant problems. Take your time. Remember that there is often more than one right answer to a problem, and that in the long run there may be a little real difference between solu tions. Choose one alternative and forget about the rest. When more important decisions occur, here are some suggestions which may be of help to make wise and decisive choices: 1. Write your problem down briefly. 2. Solve only one problem or section of a problem at a time. 3. Study and evaluate your problem: it may be unimportant in spite of its pretentious appear ance on the surface. 4. Talk over your problem with an authority, if possible. 5. Before acting, gather all available facts which will aid your choice. 6. When alternatives present themselves, weigh the ' list of pro's and con's. Choose the best; forget the others. 7. Take these steps in orderly fashion, 1-6. Allot time for thought, and do not let yourself become "rattled" or rushed. You will be free of the curse of indecision upon the day you find yourself following these rules automatically. And when you break down your biggest problems into small parts, you may well find that they are not so formidable after all! Coos Bay Awarded Television Channel Washington U.R) The Fed eral Communications Commis sion yesterday ruled in favor of Coos Bay, Ore., and against Prineville, Ore., in awarding the coastal city very high frequency television Channel 11. Both Coos Bay and Prineville had sought assignment of the channel previously awarded to Yreka. Calif. The FCC granted Coos Bay the VHF channel and gave Yreka UHF Channel 19.
