Whereas you would be a long shot at happiness if you harried a woman 20 years younger than yourself. It seems to me that nothing is ore important in marriage than arrying in your own age class, and is is particularly the case when we past our first youth, for there no denying that our ways and our kes and dislikes and our opinions urden along with our arteries, and at it is practically impossible to ange them after we get fiftyish.

That is what you would have to try to do if you married the woman who 1s 20 years younger than you are. She would want to do things that belong to her time of life.

NOON WOT buz LONDON HAMILTON Fresh From the Kitchen Mary By Moore Christmas Goodie Time Is Nearing THE preparation for Christmas and sometimes the fun lasts longer and is better than The Day itself. In our kitchen we have had two baking orgies: one for the cakes and cookies we sent overseas, and another to make our own cakes and cookies plenty of time to test them before printing the methods on cookery page. This year I am giving you some cookies straight from a Czechoslovakian woman who made them for a council meeting of Canadian women and they nearly stopped the show.

The honey cake is a little different from your traditional Christmas fruit cake, but the most delicious morsel of fruitiness you can imagine. These two cookies are noted for their delicious flavor and good keeping qualities- -make them now for Christmas. Vanilla Kipfels (Vanilla Crescents) (I have had to transpose these amounts from grams, then to ounces, then to tablespoons--so you can be patient enough to measure them out by measuring tablesponnfuls, etc.) Tkenty tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon (using standard measuring spoons) flour, 10 tablespoons butter, 10 tablespoons ground almonds, 6 tablespoons sugar, 2 egg yolks, and 6 additional tablespoons sugar for rolling crescents in when baked. To make, scald the almonds, slip off the skins and grind them through fine knife of grinder. Now make the dough: My Czechoslovakian friend says to pile the flour on your baking board and make a hole in it and put butter, sugar, almonds and yolks in the hole, and knead the whole thing into a nice smooth dough with the hands--this takes patience, but is very nice when done.

Form into tiny crescents about inches long by to inch thick, by rolling between palms, then bending a little to form a crescent. Put on ungreased cookie sheet (they contain so much shortening cookie sheet does not need any) and bake at 375 deg. Fahr, for about 10 minutes--watch closely and do not let these little crescents burn. WHILE STILL HOT roll in the second lot of sugar which should be powdered sugar. This rolling sugar is flavored vanilla in Czechoslovakia, but white powdered vanilla is too hard to obtain for me to suggest using it here.

If kept in airtight tin these a their best after three weeks. Finger Cookies Thirty-one tablespoons flour (these are worth the patience this measuring requires), 10 tablespoons butter, 6 tablespoons sugar, 2 egg yolks, a few chopped almonds, some jampreferably apricot or strawberry or red currant jelly, and some extra sugar. Pile the flour on your baking board and make a hole in centre and put the butter, sugar and yolks in hole. Knead to form a nice smooth dough with hands. Put in refrigerator for to 1 hour.

When chilled form into tiny balls not more than inch in diameter. Place on cookie sheet-ungreased-and with forefinger make dent in centre top, but do not flatten cookie. Brush with egg white, sprinkle top with a little sugar and bake in moderate oven of 375 deg. Fahr. for 10 to 15 minutes.

When done sprinkle top with chopped almonds and put a very little dot of jam in the indentation. Or fill hole with a quarter of a candied green or red cherry. These are very decorative on a plate of assorted cookies. Dorothy's Honey Fruit Cake (This is a rich medium light fruit cake easy to make and oh-so-easy to eat.) One-half lb. butter, 1 cup brown sugar, 3 eggs, 2 tablespoons honey, cup milk, 1 teaspoon cream of teaspoon salt, teaspoon soda, flour to make a stiff batterabout 3 cups, 2 lbs.

raisins -Valencias when we can get them but Lexias seeded will do, at least lb. mixed peel- addition of another lb. citron peel is optional but good, 1b. candied cherries- these are nice if half are green and half are white, lb. blanched almonds (if these are not available try cashews or blanched Brazils).

Sift together the flour, cream of tartar, salt, soda, then take cup of this and mix it with the fruit so that all surfaces of the fruit are floured and separated. the butter until your arm aches, then sift in the brown sugar little at a time, until you have creamy mixture. Beat in the egg yolks and honey. Add the milk and floured fruits and nuts, mix well, and sift in dry ingredients last. Then fold in stiffly beaten egg whites.

NOTE: To make this cake larger, you may add a jar of pear or peach jam-not more than 8 when more flour will be needed- about 1 additional cup of sifted flour. Pour batter into deep lined cake pans, lined with several thicknesses oiled paper or 1 thickness heavy brown paper well buttered. Bake or steam. If cake is steamed it requires 5 hours COVERED ALL THE TIME and hour in oven of 350 to dry it off. If cake baked, stand it in larger pan containing hot water and bake hours at 300 deg.

Fahr. Steaming and short bake period are preferable. Shortbread (Every year I give you a shortbread recipe -this is a little different from last year's in that it tains cornstarch the cornstarch gives a smoother texture.) One cup butter 4 cups sifted flour (1 7 tablespoons cornstarch (2 cup sugar (4 Beat the butter to a cream and then dredge in gradually the other ingredients. Work this paste with the hands until quite smooth and divided into 3 pieces. Pat each piece Purple and White Rule Again As Assumption Entertains College Colors Form Effective Setting for Annual Scholarship Fund Dance at Norton Palmer Hotel because the whole world changed last 20 years, and after your brief romance was over and you settled down you would have very little in common.

And you would find out what every old man who marries a A woman younger than himself dig covers to his sorrow, that a young wife will not make you feel younger, as you think she will, she will make you feel older. On the other hand, if you marry the woman who is your own age, who is calm and quiet and poised, she will make you a comfortable companion for declining years, because you will have everything in common be able to say to each other "don't you remember?" And you may be very sure that the older woman will care a great deal more for you than the younger one. DEAR MISS DIX: I want very much to join the WAVES, but my family opposes my doing so. I am 22 years old. Am not married.

Have no dependents. Do you think I would make a mistake in joining the WAVES? I have been working in a defence plant for the last ten months, but quit in order to join the WAVES. They say that every girl who becomes a WAVE releases a man for active duty. I can't see why it isn't as much a girl's duty to do what she can to help win the war as it is a boy's duty. Am I right? I WANT TO BE A WAVE.

ANSWER: Well, if you do. why don't you join up? Uncle Sam is calling long and loudly for women to come to his help, and certainly the ones who can best respond are girls like you who are young and free. I think a woman who has children best serves her country 1 by staying at home and taking care of them and keeping them running wild, as they are bound to do without a mother to watch over them. But with A woman who has no such responsibilities the case is different. And if an unattached woman can free a man for active duty, she should go to the help of her country.

So join up if you have the call, and long may you wave. DOROTHY DIX. Craig-Wagner Nuptials Today Sailor To Be Married at All Saints' Church The marriage of Miss Eileen Wagner, daughter of Mrs. William Wagner, Mercer street, to Able Seaman Alfred G. Craig, son of Mr.

Current Meat Supply Adequate MONTREAL, Nov. of the foods division of the Prices Board here yesterday admitted the meat supply is plentiful at present for home consumption, but they said that 000,000 pounds of meat a week are being consumed in Canada, and a reserve must be maintained to offset any seasonal decrease in supplies that may be experienced.

"Miracle" Cure Is No Miracle LONDON, Nov. Lancet, British medical journal, said yesterday that three army doctors had tested patulin, which had been hailed in some quarters as a new miracle cold cure, and in 100 cases found that the patients treated with it showed "substantially the same clinical improvement" as those treated with other remedies. On the basis of their test the three doctors decided that Patulin had "no demonstrable effect," the journal said.
