Ham Tetrazzini Variation Of Famed Italian Recipe Ham Tetrazzini is a variation of the well-known Italian dish, Chicken Tetrazzini, said to have been created as a compliment to the celebrated opera singer, Mmc. Louis Tetrazzini. The casserole is a delectable blend of spaghetti topped with a creamy sauce filled with cubes of ham and fresh mush room slices, the whole mixture given the special flavor fillip of sherry and Parmesan cheese. What do you serve with this main dish? Broccoli or Italian green beans, perhaps, and a big salad of tossed greens with a thin vinegar and oil dressing crusty bread and butler, milk and fresh fruit for dessert.

Hib bard, 1804 Roberts Road, had as g uc s t s for Christmas their daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. James R. Chittick. The couple left December 26 for Myrtle Point where they make their home and where both are teachers. Small city and country living is just a lot better than big city living, as far as we are concerned, and we're always doubly sure of it during the holidays. Three recent articles we read only strengthened our opinion thai we wouldn't like to be in New York City or Philadelphia or Boston at Christmas time. All three, writers spoke of their grow ing concern and annoyance over the fact that they were expected In provide gifts either articles or money to so many persons who provide "services." One man mentioned his newsboy, who was openly resentful of the fact that the customer gave him no monetary gift al Christmas. Another article dealt with whal is expected of New Yorkers at Christmas and quoted the man, an apartment house dweller, who had been provided with a list of 27 persons to whom he was expected lo present checks. Most of them he had never seen, and in some instances he felt their service the past year deserved no recognition. These apartment house lists, we are told, usually include the puliccman in the area. Potpourri gives, and receives, a few gifts which probably come under the "service" category, but all are exchanged among persons we know and in most instances consider as friends. We hope it is never otherwise. Perhaps in the future gifts of this sort we'll present at Thanksgiving or the Fourth of July at some time which has no religious significance. Among our Christmas letters was one from Beth Ryan, Oswego, an Oregon Press Woman member and sorority sister, which in cluded an "out of the mouth of babes" remark. One of Mrs. Ryan's grandchildren, two and a half years old, was taken for a pony sleigh ride with Santa Claus after which he observed to his mother with excitement "There's a man in that suit!" The National Safety Council repeats and repeats this slogan, particularly nl holiday time make the one for the road coffee. O.S. The useful tea cart Is returning to favor. This one has a solid maple top which Increases from 18 lo 36 inches with the leaves up. Turned spoke wooden wheels with rubber lircs, a large shelf and drawer are other features of this server, finished in nutmeg maple. .Martinsville Novelty Corporation. Householders Like Maintenance Free Building Materials Painting, polishing and gener al clean-up are periodic chores that discourage most homeown ers and make apartment dwell ers out of some who prefer to spend their spare time in rec reation or travel. To meet this problem, more and more build ers are offering buyers homes with products and materials that are practically maintenance-free. Fully tiled bathrooms rate high with buyers who want homes with a minimum upkeep. Real ceramic tile requires noth ing more than an occasional quick wipe with a damp cloth to look sparkling new. Because i ceramic tile is impervious to burns and scratches, it's being used with increasing freauencv on kitchen counters and back splashes. On exteriors, builders are of fering siding materials, some of which are guaranteed not to re quire repainting lor 15 years. Others, such as ceramic tile, never need to be painted. Cer amic tile now comes in more than 250 fadeproof shades so that it's easy to find the color to match or blend with any decor. Chapter To Meet At Welch Home Chapter C G of the PEG sis terhood will meet at the home of Mrs. Howard Welch, Haw thorne Garden Apartments, Thursday, January 2. Mrs. G. T .Haupert will serve dessert at 12:30 p.m. and Mrs. Richard House will present a program following the business meeting. Wear Corsage Stems Down, Say Florists When you buy or are given a corsage, be sure you wear it properly. The stems should al ways point down and the flowers up, the way they grow. They'll look prettier that way, says the Society of American Florists.
