A grateful goodbye hug from hubby, sweet kisses from the children, oiT to school after a hearty breakfast.

She smiles at the empty plates, happy in the know- ledge that she has pleased and cared for her loved ones; smiles at the memory of the joy which greeted the steaming pancakes and the Crown Brand Corn Syrup, on this morning's breakfast table.

You, too, can serve Crown Brand with complete

conﬁdence because Crown Brand Corn Syrup has

been recommended and used for

years, in the bottle feeding of

infants and is a favourite with all

ages because of its delicious and tempting ﬂavour.

Getting Ready r... Christmas

.___

ea

Santa Clause has been seen on i

street corners and in store wtndows, I busy_ with his preparations forf Christmas. It will not he long‘ until the spirit or Christmas wiiii be in every home.

The homemaker, who has cakes, puddings and other Christmas’ treats ready ahead of time. has 0W0 advantages. These delectable mixtures of fruit and spice im-E prove on standing as the in-l iiredients blend. The preparation

requires some time as truits,| nuts and peel must be cleaned and cut and the putting together and‘

baking is a slow procedure, It is, well. therefore, to have them ready; before the last rush as there are 5o many little jobs that must be left almost to the days just be- tore Christmas.

Much o! the, joy of Chrisimasi is in recapturing the spirit of tormer years. lt may be great grandmother's special cake, grand- mother's mince meat or the pudding sauce that mother always made, that revives lhese memories.‘ Perhaps these old recipes do not. quite jit into the modern schemei

well.

The home economists of the Cen- sumer Section, Dom nion Depart- ment. of Agriculture have their.

own favorite recipes for light: lruit cake and mince meat, Light; fruit cake is seldom-

iced but may be decorated witni a holly wreath or spray made with pieces of cltron peel and glacel cherries. This design is arrangrdi on top of the batter before baking,

Dark fruit cakes are usualiyi iced with almond icing. This may‘ be made at home or purchasedl ready made. Before placing almond paste on the cake, it should be rolled out on a board to the de- sired size and thickness. anywhere from 1-3 inch to 1 inch. If the top of the cake is brushed with, 08g white before putting the icing in place, the egg white acts as a, cement to hold the almond paste in place. The almond paste should be covered thinly with a simple white icing-sugar irosting. The? sides o! a Christmas cake are‘ seldom iced. This is just anotheri 0t those traditions the origin of which seems to be lost.
