 Wanting to serve an animated dish such as this is certainly dif- ferent from being able to serve 1t. But this marshmallow Santa Claus Dessert is strongly In your favor, all points considered, for 1t is easy to nake-you'll have lots of fun doing it-and you'll find it's inexpensive.

 Cook sugar, cinnamon candles, and water until the syrup spins Q thread. Pare and core apples and cook in this hot syrup until tender, but not soft. Remove from syrup and cool. Combine dates and nuts and place in centers of apples.
 Using an apple to form each santa's body, proceed to make the head, arms, and feet with whole marshmallows, fastening with wet toothpicks. To make the face, place wholo cloves and bits of candied cherry on the flat side of marsh- mallow, topping Santa's head with Q candied cherry half; then secure head to top of apple with Q wet toothpick. Make santa's whiskers with 0 piece of marshmallow. And If you listen very closely you may hear Santa say, Merry Christmas to all-and Q happy New Yearl"

Why is it that the word "Christ- mas" always goes SO well with the words good old"9 Maybe it's because Christmas Is at least one time in the year when we are willing to learn from the good ideas of old times, These ideas, especially the "Old South sideboard," are In the real Christmas dinner menu pre- scented by Elizabeth Woody in Mc- Calls for December:

"'Old South Sideboard' means work, of course, And heavy expense as compared with the single -dessert meal. But the work Is the best kind of pre-C Christmas sport.

NRA Coming Back?

When the Senate, by a not too large margin, passed the wages-hours bill, so called, last Saturday it brought back a hint of the good old MIRA which met such an inglorious death at the hands of the courts. Many there were who railed at the MIRA and it's endless red-tape which interfered with efficiency so much, but many there were who pointed out that the MIRA was really what labor and capital had described as the ideal solution of many perplexing problems of the industrial world of today.
 Well, we haven't got the MIRA back with us, but we have, with Senate ap- proval, a type of the MIRA in that the bill passed last Saturday gives an ad- ministrative board power to set up working hours and wages. Unfortunate ly for those who favor the measure in it's present somewhat amended form there is the grave danger that when the House bill is reported out it will have been changed so much or contain such clauses that it won't be passed. There is a strong bloc of southern votes ready to be swung into action when it comes time to vote the measure one way or the other.
 This is to be expected for the wages hours bill does most of it's it's damage in the industrial South, where wages are reputedly low and hours said to be long. Even the administrators weight prob ably wouldn't prevail on southern demo- crats to throw their industries into di- rect competition with northern ones. So the chances of miniature MIRA com ing into existence are somewhat slim right now. Long have we clamored for uniformity and control over hours of work and wages of employment, but when it comes right down to letting some governmental agency do the dic- tating our flesh has been somewhat weak.

ton, and the editor who fails to guess what the government is going to think about this or that public problem is traitor to be shot at sunrise
 It is the old fellows, too, with experi- ence and background, that are bearing the brunt of this press purge. Young and unspoiled journalists are to take their places. The official Pravda says: "It is high time to overcome the bu- reaucracy and conservatism that block the promotion of young and capable press workers loyal to the party. We have enormous human reserves. There is no end of capable young journalists who lack only a general political education. Only Bolsheviki are worthy of working in and guiding the press of the freest world-the Soviet Union" Freedom of the press, of course, has been guaranteed in the new Russian Constitution. This is the way it is inaugurated.

High Rehousing Rents

What is the good of "eradicating" slumS, if the new houses you build are too expensive to be occupied by the peo- pie you built them for?
 Major rehousing projects undertaken by the federal government are at last nearing completion in Cleveland, and the rent scales have been announced. In the cheaper of the two projects, rents begin at $1275 a month for two-room apart ments, and go up to $22.44 month for six rooms. In addition, charges for heat, water and electricity will be collected with the rent. These charges will range from about $5.35 to $8 a month.
 As ordinary rents go, those scales are moderate enough but they are not mod crate for the typical slum dweller. h. Ceed, the reason that we have SlumS IS simply the fact that there are a great many people who cannot for the life ot them pay rates as high as those indl- cated above.
 If we really plan to abolish slums, we must provide new housing at prices that slum-dwellers can afford to pay.
