ShOrtbread Is
Tasty Scotch
Holiday Fare
XX|ANT to please someone

N/ANT to please someone
w who "has everything"
with a really extra special
Christmas gift?
A festively decorated round
of Royal Scotch shortbread is
the perfect answer to that
very pressing problem.
The familiar tartan COW
cred, heather trimmed tins
are missing from the stores
this year, so we'lluse a really
wonderful old Christmas reci-
pc from Scotland and make
some ourselves instead.
A quarter cup of powdered sugar
is all the recipe requires, so you
can plan to make as many rounds
as you can for Christmas gifts.
After all sugar is very precious
item this Christmas, isn't it, and
it's good to know of something so
delectable that does require so lit,
tie!
One of the tricks in making good
Scotch shOrtbread is to rub the but
ter into the -four mixture with the
fingertipS instead of a pastry blend
er. The butter softens slightly that
way and absOrbs the -four and sugar
perfectly.
The sliced cherries and the
chopped almonds are the ingredi-
entS that give the regal touch and
unbelievably Christmassy texture to-
this usually somewhat austere
Scotch specially It's so good you
just have to taste it to believe it!
Save half dozen of the most per.
feet cherries and almonds for deco
ration-or use bits of green angelica
with the cherries instead.
If you have a box of glace fruit
you can let your imagination run
riot Of course and really go to town,
but in general the cherries will do
the job very nicely indeed.
When the shortbread is baked, cut
a round of white cardboard exactly
the same size. Slide a broad spat-
ula gently under the round of short
bread when it is cool and lift il
carefully on to the cardboard.
Wrap gaily in cellophane and trim
proudly with red ribbon and holly,
for a gift of Royal Scotch short.
bread is a very elegant gift indeed!

Catholic Information
When you and 1 are
 dead

When you are dead, dear mon- Catholic neighbor, your soul will go directly either to Heaven or to Hell, according to Protestant teach ing-a rather worrisome thought when one considers how free a soul should be, not only from sin, but from the scars of sin, to be worthy to reside in perfect harmony with the all-pure God in Heaven.
 When I am dead, I shall not go to Hell unless die with the black est unforgiven sins or my soul. I shall not go straightway to Heaven because I have sinned many times; and although my trespasses may have been wiped out by Confession and Penance, still I must endure a period of punishment to atone for those forgiven sins, and of clean sing to wash away any remaining venial sins or imperfectionS.
 When you are dead and I am dead, I believe we shall meet in Purgatory, suffering but confident of our final salvation. Then, if the l9OO-year-old Catholic teaching is correct. you will know that my loved ones on earth are besieging Heaven with their prayers that all- merciful God may take me sooner to Him. You will also be most gratefully aware that prayers are being said in your behalf by the Catholic friends you have left be- hind-by all Catholics, for 1t is our practice to pray for all departed souls-and last, and perhaps best, by those cloistered monks and nuns. SO inexpliacble to you while on earth, but now so much appre- ciated, because they devote their lives to praying especially for those departed souls who have no one else to pray for them.
 If, dear neighbor, you think that there is just a possibility of the ex- istence of Purgatory, why not re- member now in your prayers the souls of your departed loved ones? And why not ask your Catholic friends to remember you after you have gone? If there is Purgatory- and 36O, GOO 900 Catholics are convin- ced that there is-such prayers will be invaluable: and if there isn't well, no since prayer Is wasted, so good will come of 1t anyway.
 Prayers which you may recite privately for the souls of dear de- parted ones, will be sent you free, if you write to:
