Christmas dinner-it Is as symbolic
as the Christmas tree. Every good
houSekeeper's cookbook includes
recipe for conservation mince meat,
or mock mince meat-and if not a
very good sort may be bought ready
made in attractive packages.
In the very earlyday Christmas
celebrations mince pie actually had
religious symbolism and it is said our
Puritan ancestors would as soon have
omitted the Christmas church service
as mince pie from the dinner. In those
days the pie was always made in an
oolong shape to represent the form
OF the manGer in the Bethlelem sta
bic. The meat used in the pie was
always mutton. symbolizing nocks
watched by the shepherds on Christ
mas night, and the spices used we're
designed to represent the spices and
frapkincense offered BY the Mag to
the Holy Child.

Mrs. Lisman and the guests: Mrs.

lady of refinement and pleasing
manners. A few years ago Mr.. Lis
man was employed at the Chas Tay-
lor Drug Store and has many friends
here and In Guymon, where he at one
time made his home.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lisman spent several
days last week with friends in Hugo

Australia Faces
Famine In Cars

Australia. Is facing q genuine motor
farnins, which h due to q variety OF
causes The loss oocasioned by diff
feren. embargoes. has reduced the
number of automobiles reaching this
continent, and another dinicuity II the
trouble of getting pneumatic tires.
Goodyear has done an immense bust
ness In Australia. but owing to ship
ping difficulties has not been able to
keen It's stocks here equal to the de-
marid. The tire situation Ia further
aggravated beca use local rubber com
panies have suffered production losses
due TO q labor strike which has been
in force three months, The road OF
the local rubber companies has been
further blocked by difficulties in Sc.
curing raw materials for tire manu-
faoture.
It Is unfortunate that at this time
there should be a shortage OF cars
and tires, because the farmers are
getting large returns for their labors
Good prices are paid for their wheat
and wool, and the guarantee Of these
prices makes the Australian farmer
the most prosperous automobile
