STUFFED HAM
AH0LIDAY
SPECIAL

For small dinners. when turkey
or other fowl does not appeal, why
not try ham? This can be dressed
in the most festive fashion. 1t
isn't the traditional Pilgrim dish.
but you will find your guests will
like it. For your Thanksgiving
dinner serve with a piquant fruit
garnish or replace the bone with
q poultry stuffing.
There is all the difference III
the world in the kind of ham yoI
buy. and for this occasion you will
want the best on the market.
Sugar cured hams coming from
young corn-fed porkers is best. It
should have a nice covering OF
white fat, not too thick, but just
enough to make 1t tender and
Juicy when it comes from the
roaster. A ham that is too lean
has a tendency to be dry and
stringy. The ham coming from
the best porker is usually plump
and well:rounded with smooth
thin skin. The shank is usually
short.
Buy Whole Ham
1t is more economical to buy a
whole or half ham. If your dinner
Is very small, have the ham cut
into three parts. The butt ena
can be baked or broiled, the choice
center served for your Thanks.
giving dinner, and the boiled
shank chopped with salad OF
served with crisp vegetables.
If the ham is to be baked the
entire cooking period, place the
ham in a covered roaster fat side
up, and pour over it boiling water
to half cover the ham. Then cover
the roaster closely and bake in a
300-degree or rather slow oven fof
four hours. Baste frequently.
Then remove the rind. This is
easily done by cutting the skin on
the underside of the ham at the
shank end. Giving the skin
quick jerk will remove it all at
one time, leaving the fat intact.
Sprinkle the fat surface with a
teaspoonful of dry mustard, cover
it thickly with brown sugar. ana
continue baking for one hour.
This ham has a more pronounced
flavor than the ham that is boiled
and then baked.
Piquant .Garnish
To syrup from can of pears, add
/ cup sugar, l stick of cinnamon
and 6 whole cloves. Boil for five
minutes; add pears and cook until
well favored (about 80 minuteS). .
Drain. Pit large stewed prunes
and insert a section of pineapple.
Heat in spiced syrup a few min.
utes. Arrange the. fruits around
ham. Just before serving, put
currant Jelly in the pears.

Right Stuffing Adds
Holiday Flavor

not the only bird that can grace

AS much care, however, must be
taken in selecting and preparing
the proper stuffing, for a bird

without salt.

LEGION PLAY IS
VERY SUCCESSFUL

The play. in three acts,
When Men Marry" was
put on last Friday night with
huge success at the school
auditorium by Mss Lund,
sponsored by the Coolidge
American Legion. The house
was filled to standing room
and all finauiciaal and social
expectations were fully real
lied.
This p ~ consisted of an
ail-star cast of seventy char
acters and space will not
permit Us TO elaborate on the
qualities Of each, which they
jus Is deserve. However, all
were feminine characters
represented by prominent
men Of Coolidge. who por-
t~ayed characters from the
servant girl 10 nobility in
roles that were quite realis-
tic.
The chorus girls were very
charming, elegantly costum-
ed, and we would liked to
have pinched their cheeks,
had we not known them.
However. John Goree was
overwhelmed in spite Of the
fact and sent up a beautiful
bouquet to each girl (?).
A special feature, and a
diversion from the regular
'ine-up were X. J. Jones and
Chas. Cohen. representing
Scotchmen in their native at
tire. who rendered songs, ap-
preeiation Of which was indi-
Gated by hearty encores.
Harry Shelters "Yoo-
Hoo" has become a by-word,
and in fact, every one played
his part with precision. 1.-The
best entertainment ever pull
ed off in Coolidge. and bet
ter than a grand opera" is
the general verdict in Cool
idge and it was all there.
