A Little Dirt Never Bothers A Frenchman By CYNTHIA LOWRY Associated Press Writer It is the honest opinion of most palate-wise Europeans, fortified by our own periodicals, that far as food is concerned Americans are nothing but a bunch of germ conscious barbarians. Few Frenchmen would exchange their crusty, long loaves which encounter heaven knows what adventures during their naked route from oven to mouth, for a slice of our hygienic, double-wrapped, vitamin-impregnated bread. Most continents' regard with amusement our national preoccupation with sterile wrappings, our admiration of food without resort to human hands, our dedication to refrigeration, chlorine and vacuum packing, or joy—depending on how you look at it—of food preparation, and our passion for saving time. To the average American blessed with the normal complement of taste buds any appreciation of good food, the rather condescending attitude of the gourmet- Mrs. Wade Tapert of Fullerton Girl Scouts, gave a description of the new Fullerton Scout camp at Wrightwood. A letter was read from Robinson of the Pasadena Boy Scouts, concerning Cherry Grove camp at Catalina. The board of directors voted to accept his invitation to attend his camp during the week of Boy Scout jamboree, July 18-25.

Mrs. Mary McBride of Cypress has returned from a visit of several weeks with her sister, Mrs. W. A. Stambough in Albuquerque. Pete Zelepugas and his family had an enjoyable day in the mountains in the snow last week. The Savanna school kindergarten will have a change in hours this week.

Group Surprises Leader With Party Mrs. Evelyn E. Goodman, president of the C. R. Rogers VFW auxiliary, was delightfully surprised when she entered the VFW hall for the regular meeting last week.

Annette Rosen, Fred Hutchins, Wallace Frazier and Patsy Hart won the game awards. Mr. and Mrs. Goodman are known throughout the county for their work in the VFW. CRANBERRY STAINS Cranberry stains can be treated with boiling water, if it does not harm the cloth, and sometimes even warm water is effective. It is better not to use soap, as alkalies set some fruit and berry stains. I’ve heard talk about cola drinks and soda pop as the liquid in cake mixes, and there was some serious consideration given a ring mold which called for gelatine, cola drink and slices of bologna. Also cake made with tomato soup. Recently it was suggested that doughnuts be used as the base of chicken a la king. I ate—and enjoyed, for goodness’ sake — a shrimp curry served with baked bananas. Probably the rest of them are equally palatable, but my food thinking is still too far to the right of center, and the habit of years too ingrained to send me sourrying into the kitchen aflame with desire to combine, for instance, sauerkraut and fresh fruit in a salad. I’ll continue to think of sauerkraut happily wed to spare ribs. Meanwhile, I’d feel happier about the reputation of American food if our most violent critics would visit a few homes and restaurants and taste some of the plain, tasteful and good food which is routinely sreved. Keep Santa In Stitches By DOROTHY ROE Associated Press Women’s Editor Having Christmas budget trouble? Then stitch up some gay little gifts on the sewing machine. They can be done in ‘little time’, cost practically nothing and will please the recipients more than a store bought gim-crack. Any woman, for instance, would welcome a practical apron with colorful trimming. Little girls will love a hand made doll or a wardrobe of doll clothes. And animal-head wash cloth mits with embroidered names are a sure-fire hit. Standard patterns for all of these are available in most department stores. Beginners can get quick instruction at local sewing centers. Something for the boys: A stamp album (for the collector); photograph album or U.S. camera picture book (for the photographer); warm gloves (for the skier) skating enthusiast or outdoor man; warm socks (better if you knit them yourself); a good ski book, bird book or fish-lovers’ handbook (depending on his hobby). Plastic Ornaments: Christmas tree and ornaments for gift packages of plastic include a Santa Claus face, boot or snowman with die-cut eyelet at top. If these are put on the tree the Christmas tree lighs will enhance the color of the ornaments. Something for the Girls: Crocheted evening gloves, (buy plain gloves and embroider with colored wool or gold or silver metallic thread); a colorful stole (make it of a strip of red, blue, green jersey—trim it with tassels of black wool); a group of etchings or good prints (for her room); a or good prints (for her vinegars or spices (for the career girl; wool-jersey panellettes (for the outdoor girl; shoe bags or toiletries (for the traveler); matched makeup eyelash curler, nailpolish (for the glamor girl). Garden Club Christmas Builds Aid to Charity CHRISTMAS FIREPLACE inspires the wintertime live efforts of the Englewood, N.J., Garden Club. its stage exhibits to collect funds for Christmas and flowers for veterans' hospitals. Here are two decorations devised by the garden club members: HOME-MAKERS’ FORUM By The Gazette’s Own Home Economist JOAN S. WHITE GIFT COOKIES Here is a wonderful gift suggestion for the women on your list, be they neighbors, relatives or friends. Every woman who keeps house will be delighted with this useful gift—a ceramic grease caddy packed with cookies, and all decked out for Christmas. It is practical too, because your homemade cookies will keep fresh in the coffee can that fits in the daddy. After the cookies are eaten the coffee can and grease caddy can be used to store bacon drippings in the refrigerator. If you are making cookies for gifts this Christmas, you might like to consider arranging them on an inexpensive cookie sheet, wrapped with cellophane so that the designs are visible. Some folks save candy boxes and the round oatmeal boxes through the year to cover with Christmas paper for gay cookie containers. Cookies from your kitchen are a welcome gift for those "who have everything", for the lonely shut-in, for tradesmen who have given good service. HOLIDAY BAKING Anaheim food markets are well stocked with the ingredients that make delicious cookies. With special holiday baking in mind, it is a good idea to stock a few of the specially needed ones each time you shop. Things like flour, sugar, flavorings, spices, chocolate, chocolate bits, molasses, food colorings, fancy "sprinkles", candied fruits, and nuts purchased a few at a time are hardly noticeable on the food bill. Makes about five dozen two cookies. Christmas cookies, flavored with tangy California lemon juice, vide a welcome fresh taste and all the richness of holiday fare. The following recipe can made with fresh, canned or frozen lemon juice: LEMON COCOANUT BALLS ½ cup shortening ⅔ cup sugar 1 egg, unbeaten 1¼ cups sifted flour ½ teaspoon salt ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar ¼ teaspoon baking soda HOLIDAY BAKING Anaheim food markets are well stocked with the ingredients that make delicious cookies. With special holiday baking in mind, it is a good idea to stock a few of the specially needed ones each time you shop. Things like flour, sugar, flavorings, spices, chocolate, chocolate bits, molasses, food colorings, fancy "sprinkles", candied fruits, and nuts purchased a few at a time are hardly noticeable on the food bill. It is well to check over kitchen tools too. The most important of these are the cookie sheets. These should have no sides and be at least two inches shorter and narrower than your oven. If yours are the deep sided pans, turn them over and bake on the bottom of the pan for even distribution of heat. Pans that are too large to allow even heat circulation within the oven produce cookies that are too light on top and too dark underneath. You might like to treat yourself to one of the new cookie presses that gives the professional touch with just a flick of the wrist. With only a little practice, you will rival even the exclusive French pastry shop. There is something about making and decorating cookies that brings out the artist in all of us. Cookie cutters are getting fancier and fancier. If you cannot find just the cutter you want, cut your design from a cardboard, lay it on the cookie dough, and cut around it with a sharp knife. A small pastry tube filled with icing made of confectioners' sugar and cream can be used to make interesting designs for coats on gingerbread men and boots on Santa. Thinner icing painted on with a pastry brush is just the thing for solid colors like the blue in an angel's dress. For cut out cookies, lovely to look at or comical for the kiddies, a white cookie which is easy to handle is a wise choice. PATTERN COOKIES 3½ cups sifted all purpose flour 1 teaspoon salt 1 cup butter or margarine 1 cup sugar 2 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla. Resift the flour with the salt. Cream fat and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla and beat well. Add flour and mix only enough to combine ingredients. Chill. Roll out ⅓ inch thick on a lightly floured board. Cut with fancy cutters. Bake on ungreased baking sheets at 375 degrees about ten minutes. Home Decoration Entrants Urged To Register Mrs. Don Wedeking, who has been appointed chairman of the Cypress Christmas home decoration committee, urges all who intend participating to register with the C. R. Rogers Memorial VFW auxiliary immediately.
