Smorgasbord
Nothing y "holiday"
quite like a gala smorgasbord
party spread. Good food,
shared with good friends,
makes the holidays a season to
remember.
A delightful smorgasbord
is a genial, easy way to enter
tain. Much of the preparation
may be done beforehand for
the cold appetizers and fix
ings for open face sandwiches.
Keeping the holiday color
scheme, make up two delect
able cheese molds of a mix
ture of Cheddar and cream
cheeses, sparked with Tobas
co, coating one with minced
parsley and the other with
shredded red pepper, and
serve with crackers. A cream
cheese mixture and a deviled
ham mixture are to be spread
on rye and pumpernickel
slices, and garnished with
sliced egg, green pepper
strips, mushrooms, dill, carrot
curls and sliced olive. Or
anything else your own imag
ination conjures up. Luscious
shrimp, cooked ahead in tangy
beer or ale, is served chilled
with a piquant sauce seasoned
with Tabasco, the liquid red
pepper.
One hot dish is a must, and
It s Not Too Late!

Treot Evergreens
To Make Them Last
Washington - (UPIt - Treat
your Christmas evergreens -
especially holly - so they will
last longer.
Mash or crush the lough,
woody branch ends and place
them for a couple of days in
a quart ot water mixed wun
tablespoon of brown sugar.
This will give the branches
a chance to absorb enough
moisture to remain fresh
through the holidays, reports
the Society of American Flor
ists. Other tips from the society,
- Groom green plants. Wipe
dust gently from the leaves
with a damp cloth. Snip off
any yellowing or orying
leaves. If philodendron corda-
tum vines are spindly, pinch
off the ends 'of the vines.
- If a post lamp lights the
way to the front door, doco
rate with Christmas greens
and cones. Ditto for fences.
- Doll up the mail box with
greens or hollies, extending a
holiday greeting to the post
man, guests and passing mo
torists. Wenonoh Club To Hold
Card Party Thursday
Wcnonah club of Weatonka
council, Degree of Pocahon

gift exchange Thursday, De
cember 20, at 1 p.m. In Red

Mrs. Nool Erskine, club sec
retary, will be the hostess.
Roasting Know-How
A tender roast should never
be covered in cooking. If cov
ered, it becomes a pot-rou3t.
Meat should be roasted at a
low temperature, 300 degrees
for beef, veal, lamb and
smoked pork; 350 degrees for
fresh pork. Searing does not
keep in the juices but actually
increases the cooking losses.
