De roasted gOlQen Drown ana teTQer,
the salad crisp, relish that adds
just the right tartness, pie with a
f1aky crust, and 50 on down the line.
All this goes back to the planning
behind the meal, A written menu
as a safety-first measure assures the
right balance of food values, har-
mony in the color scheme, contrast
in texture of the vegetables, and
none of those last minute scurries
because something was forgotten. A
detailed work schedule helps to dove
tail all the different preparations
for big meal. Clockwork at the
last minute gets everything on the
table at the same time.
It sounds easy, but in the midst
of the preparations, even the eXpe-
rienced cook sometimes runs into a
snag. So here are few of the points
to be checked. as listed by the Bu-
reau of Home Economics of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture.
QUESTION: I'm cooking my first
Christmas dinner, having two friends
as guests. I want the meal to be
just right, without costing too much.
Which bird shall I choose?
Chicken is always q
good choice for the small family.
Allow about l pound. dressed weight,
for each person to be served. That
means that a 5-pound chicken will
make four generous servings. prob
ably with some cold chicken left for
sandwiches. A young duck is another
good choice. And you'll come out
about even with 6 pounder-al-
lowing about IL pounds, dressed
weight, for each serving.
Turkey is another traditional
Christmas bird, and it comes in diff
ferent sizes to suit almost any family.
If you get your order in early you
can probably get hen turkey weigh
ing 10 pounds or less. Don't worry
about the leftover meat. Cold turkey
in the refrigerator is like money in
the bank when it comes to planning
meals on the days to follow. For
the large family, it is more eco
nomical to buy one big turkey than
two birds half the size. Turkey,
being a larger bird, goes farther
than chicken, so allow q to pound,
dressed weight, for a serving.
In many homes, roast goose is as
much a part of Christmas as the
lighted tree and glowing candles.
The Christmas goose usually weighs
from 10 to y pO1ndS and will serve
seven or eight people-fguring 115
pounds for a serving.
Remember, too, there's plenty of

Glove Handkerchiefs

With the growing interest In
wrist-length gloves which fasten
with one button (and these are be-
ing made in dressy mochas and
suedes as we'll as tailored pigskin
and capeskin), the question arises
whether the old-time glove hand
kerchief" may not also be revived.
For certain handkerchief makers
report that they are again getting
calls for these o-inch squares of
linen which used to be tucked into
the glove opening for safekeeping
and convenient location.

choose roast pork loin or shoulder
baked ham, roast beef, or even a
thick broiled steak.
QUESTION: Shall I have a first
course? What shall it be?
ANSWER: A first course adds a
touch of elegance, but it is not
necessary for the informal family
dinner. Tomato cocktail, fruit
Juice, cranberry cocktail or fruit
cup will stimulate the appetite
without detracting from what is
to come" Many families find ii
convenient to serve the appetizer in
the living room, so some other men,
ber of the family can take over
while the cook" puts the rest of
the dinner on the table
QUESTION: How can be sure OF
making perfect gravy?
ANSWER: Tastes vary-to some
folks a perfect gravy is thin and
brown, to others it's thick and
creamy. Giblet gravy is always
good and it offers a convenient way
to divide up these favorite morsels
so everybody gets some.
To make giblet gravy, simmer
the liver, gizzard. heart and the
neck in a quart of water for about
an hour, or until tender. Drain
the giblets, chop them fine, and
save the broth.
Skim off the excess fat from the
drippings in the roasting pan.
Leave about Y cup, and stir in six
tablespoons of flour until it is' we'll
blended. Then gradually add the
cool broth and enough water to
make a thin, smooth gravy. Cook
for five minutes, stirring constantly
and add the chopped giblets. Sea-
son to taste with salt and pepper.
Add chopped parsley, if you like.
QUESTION: Do I have to serve
both Irish potatoes and sweet po-
tatoes?
ANSWER: No, indeed. One
starchy vegetable, Irish potatoes or
sweet potatoes or squash, Is enough
Besides this you'll want a green
vegetable and perhaps one other.
A salad is a matter of choice, but
it does go we'll with the rich meat
of the Christmas meal. For the
relishes and extras cranberries are
good, raw or cooked, celery adds a
crisp touch, olives give a festive
note, and special homemade pickles
or relishes are not to be forgotten.

Excellent
Hints for
Beauty
Place in Reference
Book for Use at
Future Time
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

To tighten blond hair alternate
the after shampoo rinses with lemon
juice one time and white vinegar
the next shampoo.
A quick substitute for a soap
shampoo is hairbrush covered with
absorbent cotton or several layers of
sheer chiffon. Brush your hair
thoroughly and you will be amazed
at the CRIME and oil thus removed
from your tresses.
For skin glow in the evening apply
your favorite foundation cream to
all exposed skin-face, neck, shoul-
ders and arms. Let it set for few
moments blot lightly with a fresh
tissue and then dust with your best
face powder which should have a
becoming rose tint in it. Garry a
puff covered with powder wrapped
in an evening chiffon hanky to use
after removing your evening wrap
To relieve burning feet at the end
of the day or the morning after a
night of dancing massage them with
a cool oil of wintergreen and then
rub them with ice wrapped in a
| linen towel.
To dramatize eyelashes apply two
coats of mascara to the outer lashes
only Chose nearer the nose are not
darkened). Be certain the coloring
does not bead After the second
coat has dried thoroughly touch the
very tips with vaseline to relieve the
dead black effect. Also apply bit
Of the vaseline to your eyelids.
To beautify dull-looking hair mas
sage the scalp with handful of
table salt prior to the last rinse Of
a shampoo. Give the scalp a brisk
massage with finger tips. Three
brushes with varying bristels-soft,
medium and very stiff-should be
used daily to brush the hair and a
f1ne-toothed comb is excellent for
stimulating the scalp at the end of
firing day.
For complexion beauty try drink
a quart of milk each day; going one
full day and night each week with
out any makeup after your skin
has been thoroughly washed; mas
sage your skin with lubricating
cream and complexion brush at
least once week. Between these
treatments use daily bland soap and
water washings to keep your skin
clean.
If upper lip is shorter than lower
dramatize it by drawing curve
from corner to corner with no
cupid's bow. Then extend the cor
ners of the lower lip with an upward
lift with the lipstick brush. This
Is la Bette Davis and denotes strong
character and fine sensibilities!
To make lipstick stick to dry lips
thoroughly, powder them lightly and
apply thin coat of lip color. Blot
1t with face tissue and apply second
coat of lip rouge. After five min
utes blotsthe second coat with tissue.
Some girls dampen absorbent cotton
with a chilled cologne and press the
cotton against the lips.

Leftover Hints

This leftover hint is pleasing to
the budget. Bake 4 potatoes, break
in halves, remove and mash the
pulp. Mix any leftover vegetable,
meat, gravy or sauce with the po-
tatoes, add seasoning, an egg, a
little cream and some chopped
parsley. Refill the potato cases and
cover with thin slices Of cheese.
Bake Is minutes in a moderate
oven.

Hand.Painted Linen

Looking for something different
for Christmas gift? Hand-painted
damask tablecloths and napkins
are a smart idea. Or if it's towels
you're after, damask towels are be-
ing hand painted, too. The colors
are soft, muted pastels which bring
out the design beautifully and they
are absolutely fast to washing.

My Neiehbor Soys:

Cider jelly is an excellent ac-
compartment for turkey. Or
mold it in ring shape, fill the
center with chilled diced fruit
and surround it with salad
dressing. Serve as first course
salad.
Baking meringue in too hot
an oven will make it shrink and
get watery. Meringue should
be baked at about 1926 degrees
moderate oven) for 20 minutes.
If the meringue is piled as high
as possible, then a slower fire
600 degrees or less) and longer
cooking time, perhaps a half
hour, are in order.
Put small cooked hamburger
cakes between two hot biscuit
halves and top them with
brown savory gravy or well
seasoned white sauce. You'll
like these.

Mustard Stain

To remove stubborn mustard
stains from washable materials, rub
them with warm glycerin, roll
them and let them stand a couple
of hours. Then wash out in the
usual way.

By the way, if you're planning to
buy new evening gloves for yourself
or present them as gifts, look at the
