Christmas and candy! And if the candy be homemade and | the kind that '.melts in your mouth" the combination iS perfect. r Among the favorite homemade candies are the different creams.
 but too often they seem to go wrong, Perhaps a few of the tricks for success with them are worth mentioning.
 The nuts should be all picked out and ready to use and all the ingredients at hand. The utensils for making and the pans or plat ters in which the candy Is to
 harden should be ready for in- staht use.
 A round bottomed, aluminium sauce pan is best for cooking can dy. Never use an enameled pan that is cracked or otherwise im- perfect. An aluminium pan pre- vents overscooking because the syrup can be cooled the minute 1t Is removed from the fire. More- over, candy can be stirred in an aluminium pan. Always stir can- dy with wooden spoon. When candy ~alls for butter. cook 1t slowly. otherwise, the butter will "cook out" that Is, re- fuse to blend into q smooth con- sistency.
 Watch your sugars tempera- ture closely and regulate the flame or heat accordingly.
 over-cooking makes sugar grainy. Too much water has been driven off, leaving "precipitated" solution of large crystals. Always let cream candy cool before beating. AS long as there is heat in the syrup stirring will cause evaporation. This in turn makes larger sugar crystals, which give 8 coarse
 grainy texture to the finished candy.
 Don't try to, double recipes. Make two patches if larger quanti- | ties are wanted.
 The theory back of fudge and fondant any "cream" candy, Tn | fact --l is to change a large part of the cane sugar into another su- gar composed of much smaller and Lfiner crystals than those of cane sugar. This new sugar Is known as ''invert" sugar.
 In order to make sure sufficient lrinVersion" takes place, acid IS often added to the sugar mixture.
 Lemon juice. vinegar or cream of tartar can be used. Cream of tar-
 tar Is the easiest acid to use. .s Or glucose can be added in tho l form of honey Many of the corn

syrups on the market are largely glucose. Molasses also contains a
 goodly amount of glucose. Christmas Fudge Three cups granulated sugar. 1 IA cups milk, ? tablespoons white corn syrup. tablespoons
 butter. 1 1-2 cups chopped candied fruits, few drops vanilla. Put sugar. corn syrup and milk into a smooth round bottomed sauce pan. Put over a low fire
 and bring to the boiling point with
 out stirring. Increase heat slight ly and stir almost constantly un-
 til candy is done. Add butter a
 few minutes before removing
 from the fire. Fudge is "done"
 when a few drops tried in 8 saucer of cold water keep their shape and
 can be picked up and rolled be- tween the fingers. If 8 candy ther-
 mometer is used 1t should register
 236 degrees F.. Remove at once
 from the fire and let it cool quick
 ly in the pan in which 1t was cook
 ed. When thoroughly cooled add vanilla and stir with wooden spoon until thick. Add prepared fruits and stir until the mixture Is dull looking. Turn into a but
 tered pan and cut in squares. Chocolate fudge is made by
 melting three squares of bitter
 chocolate in the pan in which the
 candy is to be cooked. Stir in su- gar and add milk and corn syrup.
 Add butter and proceed as in Christmas fudge.
 Penouchi is a fudge mixture that is made with light brown su-
 gar and cream in the same pro- portions as the fudge rule. One cup of chopped mixed nuts takes the place of the candied fruit. No corn syrup is used in penouchi.
 The test for cooking is the same as
 for fudge.
 Always stir these candies just
 as long as possible before putting
 them in the pans.
 As fondant forms tho basis of
 so many candies this recipe is es-
 sential.
 FOndant
 Two cups granulated sugar, 1-S teaspoon cream of tartar, 2-S cup
 boiling water.
 Mix and sift sugar and cream of tartar into a smooth sauce pan. Add water and stir until sugar Is melted. Put over low fire and bring slowly to the boiling point. Watch carefully that sugar does
 not stick and burn on the bottom Of the pan. Place pan of cold water close to the pan of cooking syrup. As crystals form on the sides of the pan wipe them off With n soft cloth dipped in the cold wa ter. Do this until the sides are clear. Cover pan and let boil two minutes. Remove cover and swap off crystals. Boil uncovered until q soft ball Is formed when a few
 drops are tried In saucer of cold water. The candy thermometer
 should register 238 degrees +. AL
 ways remove syrup from the fire
 while testing i'll water. When the
 syrup Is cooked enough. immedi-
 ately put the pan into a larger
 pan of cold water and let stand
 undisturbed until cool. Beat with a wooden spoon until creamy. When too stiff to stir turn onto a large
 platter or marble slab and knead until soft. Put into an oiled bowl, cover tightly and let stand 24 hours or longer. Then flavor and use as wanted.

 America. .rr
 The question the military att taches are asking each other-and without success, the Japanese-is why. the preparations are being made. s-
 Observers in Dairen reported large amounts of military supplies have passed through that port. Purchases of motor trucks, cars and other motor equipment, in large volume, were reported by a number of American concerns and by the representatives of some manufacturers. Chemical supplies also were being accumulated.
 The attaches also consider it significant that materials have been ordered for construction of strategic railways in North Korea which will link up the Korean lines with the main rail transport lines in Manchuria.
 | Among the mass of theories ad- vanced the following appear worth repeating:
 1. A majority of American and some European observers, believe that those who control the policy of Japan are preparing for new Russo.Japanese war. Whether Japan wants this war or not is not clear. Some of the attaches think the Japanese do want it, and want 1t quick, believing they can defeat Russia and gain control of the Amur River Valley and Vladivostok before Russia can complete counter preparations including double tracking the Trans-Siberian rail- way.
 2. Some European observers and Soviet Russians here think the Japanese preparations envisage the possibility of the United States act ing against Japan; and cite in this connection Japanese irritation at statements Of Secretary of State Stimson regarding. the, Kellogg pact, the nine power treaty, and other issues.
 To American observers this argu- ment is absurd. Americans here see no possibility whatever of a Japanese-American conflict.
 8. A third group of observers believe the Japanese military prep arations consist first of gathering supplies for their very extensive military operations in Manchuria, and secondly merely to be prepared for any eventuality. These observ- CTS do not think the Japanese in- tend to provoke war with Soviet Russia or anybody else, but that they intend to be prepare6 if such a war should come against their will.
 The Japanese army makes no secret of the fact it intends to ex- tend its operations in Manchuria within the next month or so. as soon as the crops of high "Kao- iiang''-which cover the Mancf ur- ian plains and offer an ideal hid ing place for Chinese guerilla bands are cut. Once the corn crop is out of the way and the, Manchu plains stripped bare, the military asserts, 1t will be in position to crush Chinese resistance in Man cturia quickly, completely and for all time.

Of The
 Sheldon Offer
(Continued from Page 1)

that petition was heard last week before Judge Frank P. McEvoy. At that hearing, one of the two receiv- CTS, l.. Allan Osborne, Jr, informed Judge McEvoy that the receivers are not in full accord with certain provisions of the Sheldon offer, but he neglected to state specifically just what those provisions were.
 Attorney Terence F.. Carmody appeared at the hearing as repre- senting the Sheldon interests and intimated that the offer might be withdrawn unless expenses of the receivership were lessened. Irving Fl. Chase, former president of the Waterbury Clock Company was seated at the counsel table beside MT Cdrmody. The expenses. to which MT Carmody had reference involved the hiring of the auditors who were then engaged in prepar- ing a financial statement at the re- ceivers' request. MT Carmody was informed at that time by Attorney Richardson T. Bronson, counsel for would be finished with their work within two or three days from the date of that hearing.
 The special committee of MT Goss, Mr Bronson and MT Holmes was appointed by the stockholders at the first meeting held to con- sider the Sheldon offer, about a week and a half ago. The commit tee has studied the offer very care fully and are reported to be in fav- or of the reorganization part of the proposal. They are also said to favor the acceptance of the entire plan but with certain modifica- tionS.
