Christmas Giving

| will give the kid present when
the Christmas time has come; he
shall have wooden pheasant and
a jewsharp and a drum; he shall
have, because he's little, roller
skates and knives to whittle, and
some candy nice and brittle, and a
stick of chewing gum. And my
smiling little nieces, they shall have
their presents, too; sawdust dolls that
come to pieces, oranges and figs to
chew, candies made of rich mo-
lasses, lollipops and looking glasses,
plate-glass jewels framed in brasses,
and tube of liquid glue. But my
grown-up aunts and cousins needn't
look for gifts from me; they'll be
standing. by the dozens, round the
gaudy Christmas tree; and they'll
hope for something nifty, some
thing worth five bucks or fifty, but
I've suddenly grown thrifty, and no
presents will they see. Oh, the joy
Gus Christmas season should bring
pleasure to the young, but there is
no fitting reason why our rubles
should be flung buying presents for
the fellow whom the years have rem
dered mellow, even though he says
we're yellow when no costly gift is
sprung. Hand your gifts to little
nippers to whom Christmas is a
treat; / am tired of drawing slip
pers that bring anguish to my feet
and / say to all the senders of EN-
broidered pink suspenders that a
Christmas gift engenders in my
breasf 11pScem1y heat

foundation of about five pounds of
lean corned beef and one pound of salt
pork, which are slowly simmered
until tender before the cabbage is
introduced. With the cabbage are a
few turnips, some small beets already
partially boiled and some carrots,
parsnips and white potatoes. 1t is
an all-day performance to cook such
a dinner, for all its constituent parts
are cooked very slowly, and about
four hours before the banquet is
ready to serve is added always what
is known as bag pudding. A stout
cotton bag is well Toured and then
turned inside and into 1t Is poured
soft mixture of corn meal filled
With raw apples sugared and well
iavored with butter and spice. This
bag is securely tied and dropped into
the vessel where the meats and vege-
tables are simmering. and thus in
one vast receptacle-in the old days
those splendid big brass pots seen
In so many New England kitchens
Is prepared the entire meal.
The present chef of the White
House is an artist and can prepare
feasts to shame Lucullus. but when
1t comes to a New England boiled
dinner, as we'll as to Maryland
