Q time for solemnity and time
to take thought of serious things.
Tomorrow also marks a Holy
Day for the Jewish people from

full bloom. 1t is the first day Of
the Passover. That is a holiday
which provides a very fascinat.
ing study, and which you may
read about in the Book of Books,
the Holy Bible. Of course you rea,
lie that many Of our stores will

shopping accordingly.

Wish somebody would tell me
why 1t has become traditional to
lave baked ham on Easter. Well
It's very fine idea, because that
is a great favorite of mine.
mt I'd still like to know.
There are great many ways
of preparing the ham for the bak.
tng. like mine a bit sweet and
Q bic sour. That's why l score
II, insert the bitey cloves, rub
with mustard, sprinkle generous
" with brown sugar and pin on
the pineapple slices. Then pour
ever all = cap of sweet pickle
Juice. and sprinkle on more
brown sugar before setting in the
even to bake. If my ham isn't
already pre.eooked. l make sure
Ii has been steamed almost done
before doing all the above to II
and baking. Then it's less salty,
and much more tender and juicy.
