Christmas Table Can Be Fixed Up
 Fine for Riddles
fcopyriaht, 1920, N. g. Al


 Christmas more than any ether day in the whole year is the day of days for children. If big reo- pie must be grown-up and digni- fled Chustmas day hds very little meaning to them Perhaps the best way to bring out the little boy who lives in every big man and the little girl playing at be- ing lady is to serve Jack Horner Pie at the Christmas dinner. A surprise of any sort at the end O. a red ribbon is fascinating, but when the surprise turns out to be q perfectly good joke for each person everybody must wax some what hilarious.
 A fireplace with Santa standing at one side as master of cere- monies makes a novel pie. The mantel is built of brown card board on a box covered with red bricked paper. Tiny candles and a clock decorate the mantelpiece. The fire is made of tongues of red crepe paper and tiny strips of black paper are pasted across to make the coal basket.
 Each joke" is tied to one end of the red ribbon which runs to each place decorated with a cunning Christmasy favor full of tiny candies The fayors and presents inside the pie" can be picked up at five and ten-cent store. The cost of the pie, in side and out is very small.
 As this type of pie is pretty only from the front 1t should be placed at one end of the table before the hostess. There is a distinct ad vantage in this for the "plums" q times need bit of assistance anC guidance which the hostess i' able tO give.

 summer have been preesr, e4 .v- this occasion of al occasioIs. Cal ifornia grapes that have been pack ed in sawdust since carry Septem- Der, and that retain all Of their crisp freshness. may be had Tor the Christmas table. Apples are in abundance. Persimmons, that most delicious and colorful of fall fruits, may add much to the dec orative and tempting effects. Dried fruits. nuts and raisins. or all three combined, are displayed in artistic packages, fresh from California. All of the 'stores carry big stocks of confections, in fancy boxes and in bulk, local and imported.
 Mothers should take their chil- dren marketing with them during the last two days before Christ mas. Nowhere does the child find so much of the Christmas spirit as in the shops. Even the meat mar kets, with long rows of ducks, geese and turkeys in Christmas at tire, make happy reminders to the kiddies what to expect and wait for on Christmas day. The hustle and hurry, the struggle with par cels and packages, the decorations in the shops and stores, and the atmosphere of expectancy among the crowds, is all a part of the youngsters Christmas that they should by no means forgo.
 To return to the Christmas table and the housewife who thought she could never be worried about what she could get up for dinner. She is going to have to exercise some choice in the matter of whe- ther it shall be a turkey, a goose, some chickens or dlrks. All may be obtained. If she is the mother of large family, or is going to invite in some of the neighbors, she may decide on a suckling pig. The work of preparation will be about the same in any case as they are all prepared in the shops. Then what kind of salad shai tt oe {. There are fine tomatoes in the market, that may be prepared in any number of ways or she may choose a fruit salad. of apples, or anges, bananas, and nuts, with a few slices of pineapple. The lres- tion of desert allows such a wide variety of choice as to cause s3,De worry. Hot mince pie always goes well with a Christmas dinner or hot plumb pudding. If that seems too heavy she may choose a sher- bet or gelatine or parfait or any of the numerous light whipped buildings. In any event the house wife should not worry about it but remember the other important oc- casions on which she has served a dinner, and how they always came out alright.
