Christmas Crib Tradition
Vas Founded by Medieval
Tableau in Old Naples

In 1887, Goethe described Naples
as the city of Christmas Cribs: every
church had it's ''Praesepe" and fami-
lies erected evergreen Shrines with
in their homes and upon the fiat
roof-tops of their dwellings where
Vesuvius and the starlit Neapolitan
sky created a Hollywood-like back
ground.
st. Francis of Assist received spe-
cial permission from the Vatican to
present a Christmas tableau in 1928.
This first "Praesepe," set up in the
chancel of the church in Greccio,
Italy, was complete with real live
animals.

Before discarding wool skirt
that has begun to look worn and
shabby, consider the possibility of
giving it a new lease on life by
turning it inside out. Wool goods
and garments are scarce, so ev-
cry effort should be made to get
full wear from the clothes on
hand. Often the faded color,
spots, and wear that make a
skirt look worn are only surface
deep. If the underside looks new
and if the fabric, when held up
to the light, shows no sign of
wearing thin, the skirt is probably
worth reversing.

Timely Hints
By RUTH CURRENT

Slicing bacon by hand, especial
~ when the cut is largely fat, has
always been an unwieldy, diff
cult job, even with the sharpest
knife. Meat specialists of the u.
S. Department of Agriculture
suggest hardening the slab be-
fore slicing, by storing it in the
freezing compartment of the re-
frigerator. When chilled until
firm, bacon is easily cut into
thin, even slices.
