FOR VARIETY TRY
 EARLY TASTY HAM
Old-FashiOned Boiled Din- mer With Kettle Full
 of Vegetables
OTHER CHOICE CUTS

Custom has suggested various meats for the holiday feast, and although many homemakers of to- day, let the desires of the family govern to a major extent the holi- day meats, poultry is still the gen. eral choice. Therefore the wise homemaker selects her daily din- ner meats with the idea of secur- ing a complete change in flavor, and what could be better han smoked meats especially ham.
 Ham baked with brown sugar and cloves and oozing deliciaus juices will bring new joy to the dinner meal. A ham butt or thick slice of ham will produce the same delight of the table. Although the famiy may be small, the shopper will find a whole ham a good choice, if she will remember to ask the retailer to cut the ham into its three major parts, the rounded or butt end to be baked, fried, baked with fruit or with milk and pota- toes; and the shank section which offers the foundation of a real good old-fashioned boiled dinner, the kind we remember grandma" used to make with the kettle brim full of gevetables.
 All this is possible at very min- imum cost to the homemaker, for when she purchases a whole ham, she will find that the center slices or butt cost her just about half of the price she would pay were she to buy the ham by the slice. The skin on the regular ham will add flavor and zest to green beans or make home baked beans taste twice as good. Every scrape of ham has a use in the preparation of tasty appetizing dishes. Because of the variety of ways in which the whole ham can be prepared, monotony of flavor is rarely pos- sible, providing the homaker chos- es a we'll selected, mild, sweet ham carrying the name of a reputable producer, All hams on the mar ket are not the same, but all hams of a specific brand name are So carefully selected and cured fol- lowing the fixed flavor method that uniformity is almose absolute.
 The following recipes suggest some ham dishes for variety:

Many days before the morning when Christmas bells sound over snow covered housetops, when chill gray dawn making its leisurely way over wintry world looks curiously in through half-drawn blinds upon Christmas trees a'dance with lights and groups of little pajama-clad figures huddled over heaps of bright toys-many days before this eventful morning, Christmas, jo- vial spirit, has entered the market places of the world.
 Holly-hung windows display Christmas turkeys, chickens and geese and an occasional sucking pig with an apple in it's mouth. Others are given over to piles of nuts and figs and raisins, to inter- esting looking cans marked plum pudding" "fig pudding, fruit cake" and "mincemeat," and to goodly collections of canned Christ mas jellies and jams. Grocers and butchers and bakers become people of great importance dispensing hol- iday provisions and advice with a sort of Dickens-like enthusiasm.
 One of the many beautiful things about Christmas is that 1t keeps alight the warmth of family affec- tion--that Is one of the oldest inter- pretations of the yule-log-and its feasting and special foods have had an important place in tradition. Many of the old Christmas dishes such as "fermity" mentioned in the little verse above are now obso- lete, but the spirit of Christmas should enter not only into the great feast of the day, but, as in old times into the Christmas Eve collation., the Christmas breakfast and certainly into the ~ttle in- formal final meal of those who dine on midday on Christmas.

Even in simple menu the Christmas colors can be carried out. Tomato bouillon, beets piquant and cranberry mousse em- phasize the gay seasonal color in it's various tones. Much of the dinner can be prepared on the previous day. In fact, if you are having a noon-day meal or if din- ner is to be served in the early afternoon 1t Is better to make the cranberry mousse the day before.
 Petit fours will keep for several days and can be worked into your pre-Christmas cooking. Some of the most delicious petit fours are the simplest. Those favored with almond extract are ideal to serve with a seasonable dessert like cranberry mousse.

The world lost one of it's greatest, if not the great est scientist Saturday when Albert A. Nicholson passed away at Pasadena, Calf.
 Once Professor Haleck, of Columbia, said of him: If we are to have nterplanetary communication it will be by of Micheson's discovery of light He obtained the unit of measurement that we know to be the Mars and on the earth"
 When asked some years ago what he considered his most significant achievement Professor Nicholson said: q think most people would say that it the experiment which started the Einstein theory of rela tivty But should think of it only of the dozen of my experiments in theinterference of light waves"
 Among his many honors Professor Nicholson re- ceved the Copy medal of the Royal Society of England and also member of that society and the French Acad ey In 1923, he elected president of the National Academy of Sciences.
 During his long and active career as scientist Dr. Nicholson, German born December 19, 1852 held pro- fessorshps in nine universities in the United States and Europe; member of of scientific societies and received honors and degrees from the foremost institutions of learning in the wolrd
