Raisins Make Mince Meat

Mince meat pie has always been
the crowning pleasure of the real,
old-fashioned Chris m dinner.
Warm mince pie. Not steaming hot
from the oven. And not stone cold.
But a middling kind of warmness
that gives off rich and tantalizing
incense as the pie is borne in to the
table.
1t used to be a pie like that took
no longer than the time required
for pastry. For with home-style,
canned or glass-packed prepared
mince meat in the larder, fine pies
were a pre-war cinch to make.
This year, though it's different.
For ready-to-serve mince meat is a
war casualty now. But that should
not rule mince meat off the menu.
For SO long as there are raisins you
can still make mince meat.
We have plenty of apples, and
there is enough spice. And the meat
on sale this winter is ideally suited
for the job. 1t has plenty of honest
flavor, and will be juicily tender,
too, when you chop and shred it
6ne enough for mince meat.
With seedless raisins to give hon
eyed flavor and sweet fragrance you
can make portly pie and all these
other old-time sweets:

Glad to hear from you sailor,
and not one bit put out because
you cannot relate the nature of the
work you are doing at present.
Naturally, there are times and
places for all things, especially in
certain branches of the Service
while war is in progress. This is
all understandable.
Glad you liked the Christmas
card and wish I could be sure that
this war would come to close be-
fore next holiday season. If I knew
this to be true, I would be more
than pleased to tell you' that it is
the last you would ever receive
from Dribbles. However there is
much that remains to be done be-
fore victory is in our grasp, and
I'm of the opinion that when an
other Christmas rolls around, I'll
be sending out another Christmas
card to my friends in the Service.
But here's hoping that my guess is
all wrong, and that all of you Boys
and Girls will be back with us for
the holidays of 1915. The best of
luck to you William, and may you
be successful in the work you are

Well, so long, and I want to

Glad to hear from you, Charlie.
Sure, know that this business of
getting Christmas cards and pack
ages prior to Christmas sort of
messes things up bit in your
normal way of thinking. However,
it is the choice of two evils, either
have your cards and packages
early, or have them late. Seldom
could all the Boys over there at
cambridge get their mail through
on the single day. The result is
that it is strung out before, through
and after the holiday. Course, it
is all good when it arrives.
1t won't be long now before
you'll be leaving your boot" train
ing and have an up-rating to that

mean a change of scenery following
furlough home. Don't forget to
keep this column posted on your
change of address. We want to
keep in touch with you during. your
term of service in the u. S. Navy.
This is about the best way we can
think of at present. So be sure to
find q little time for letter now
and then so that we may know
how things are going along with

 This was confirmed by German major and 20 enlisted technicians left behind by the Wehrmacht at Frankenburg, Germany, to warn the advancing Americans of a huge gas bomb storage area in the vicinity.

Five-year- Freddie Retkowski of Naugatuck today claimed $10,0OO damages from the ,Brock-Hall Dairy Co, Inc, of Waterbury and Ray mond J. Murray of Naugatuck, as the result of injuries sustained last Oct 30 when he allegedly fell from a dairy truck near the Prospect street school. The civil action was filed in Superior Court through Mrs. Mary Retkowski, mother of the boy.
 According to the complaint, the boy was invited by Murray, driver of the truck and salesman for the dairy company. to enter the vehicle for a ride to school. The accident occurred at p. m, just as the truck arrived at the school, it is pointed out.
 The court writ states the truck was . small one with panel body and had openings on both sides. There was no place to sit and the boy stood for the half-mile ride, it ' is claimed.
 When the driver applied the brakes. the resulting force caused the child to be thrown from the truck to the pavement outside. it is alleged.
 As result of the fall, hemor- rage and laceration of the brain re- suited, the complaint states. The in- juries will be permanent. the plain tiff claims. The driver knew or should have known that the child fight fall or be thrown from the vehicle, the complaint charges.
