Mincemeat Easily Made in the Home BY SISTER MARY NEA Service Writer Although there are many kinds of excellent mincemeats on the market, most housewives like to make their own. No holiday menu is complete without at least a narrow wedge of mince pie, and for meals during the entire holiday season mince pie makes an accepted dessert. Mincemeat improves if allowed to stand one or two weeks after mixing and before making into pies. The flavors blend as in any spicSd concoction and the result is an enticing mixture without any predominating flavor. “Proper” mince meat is made with boiled cider, and there are several brands of commercially prepared boiled cider on the market. Juice Can Be Substituted However, sweet spiced vinegar from sweet pickles, or a mixture of grape juice, orange Juice' and lemon Juice can be substituted with good results. Sweet cider can be boiled with the other ingredients if it is at hand. The modem mincemeat is quite different from the concoction of our grandmothers. Fifty years ago,

mincemeat lived up to its name and actually was thick with meat. A few raisins, apples, spices and boiled cider were added to give flavor. Today some cooks make minceIneat entirely without meat, using nuts, candied fruits, currants and raisins, preserves and fruit juices carefully seasoned with sugar and Bpices. The following rule is for a combination of the modern and oldfashioned mixture. an n MINCE MEAT Two pounds lean beef. *4 pound beef suet, 4 pounds apples. 2 pounds seeded raisins, 1 pound cleaned currants, 1 pound shredded citron, V* pound candied orange peel, M pound candied lemon peel, 2 pounds light brown sugar, 2 quarts sweet cider, 1 cup molasses, 1 cup meat stock, 2 teaspoons salt, I nutmeg (grated), 1 tablespoon ground cinamon, 1 teaspoon ground allspice, 1 cup preserved cherries or strawberries. Any part of the beef can be used that is lean. It must be boiled until very tender and carefully trimmed before chopping. Cook meat in boiling water until tender, adding 1M- teaspoons salt when half done. Add water as necessary and remove scum as it rises. When meat is tender, boil rapidly to reduce stock to one cup. Let cool in stock. When cool, remove from stock and carefully trim away bits of fat, bone or gristle. Put meat through food chopper. Strain stock. Mince suet. Pare, core and chop apples, and chop raisins. Put all ingredients except preserves into preserving kettle. Bring to the boiling point and cook over a low fire about two hours, stirring to prevent sticking. Add preserves and bring, to boiling point. Pour into sterilized jars and seal.

Glorifying Yourself

YOU can’t have that spring of youth in your walk if you have fiat feet. Well-kept flexible feet are a first requirement for a step that skims over the earth in a graceful manner. If your arches bother you, consult a physician. Otherwise, it is jour own fault if your feet seem unresponsive, stolid, characterless. The chances are that they need exercise. Walking gives the whole loot some exercise, but there are many muscles that need more.. Each morning stand in your bare feet and limber up your feet, one loot at a time. Standing firmly on one foot, holding onto a chair if necessary, start wriggling your toes, one at a time until they are loosened up a little and then wobble your foot around on your ankle, prescribing an arc as you do it. with your big toe pointing the way. e a a t CIRCLE around to the right, making the arc bigger and bigger until you have stretched your loot all you can. Then reverse the motion, circling back the other way, making the arc larger and larger again. # When you have changed feet and stretched both, stand on

one again and shake your leg from the knee, trying to let the foot hang limply. When you can do this it shows that you have exercised the muscles and they are softened, the circulation is good and your foot is perfectly relaxed. These exercises, done morning and night, are a wonderful prevention for cold feet. Every day certain other foot exercises should be done to strengthen the feet. First, each day walk around on your heels for a change, instead of your toes. It changes your balance and exercises certain muscles that may grow lazy. Second, try rising on your toes and sinking slowly, when you do your morning breathing exercises. This strengthens your arches. Third, stand on your bare feet, with the toes pointed in and make believe you are a child digging your toes into nice, clean, warm mud. This scrunching them this way and that is the very best exercise in the world for them. As you turn your toes in, you stretch those sidefoot muscles which are apt to grow lazy. Last, but not least, toe-ing in and walking about the room barefooted gives a fine stretch not only to foot muscles, but to those in the outside of the leg. e tt a MANY women ask for exercises to correct thick ankles. So far as I know, there are none whatever that can correct this. But often a woman thinks she has thick ankles only because she is gazing upon those of a very slender woman or young girl and hers suffer by comparison. Ankles should be in proportion to your whole build, and what would seem thick on one woman are in perfect proportion on another. So have a little perspective in getting complexes over them.

World. Court Adherence Urged by Speaker at Luncheon

Opposition to the league of nations and world court, for the most part, is based on lack of knowledge of the subject, Mrs. Lucia Ames Mead, author, lecturer and traveler, declared in an address Thursday at a luncheon of the Indiana Council on International Relations at the Lincoln. Mrs. Mead pointed to the need of acquainting educated and influential persons with actual conditions of war. “The great majority of the people are not familiar with conditions in the nations which have been our erstwhile enemies or allies,” she said. Mrs. Mead denied the contention America is in danger of attack, declaring that as long as America is the only hope of many foreign powers, she. will not be the victim of attack. “I am not a pacifist, but a peacesaid that the nurses have a list of seventy families who will need Christmas cheer from an outside source and that the only outside assistance they are getting is from the nurses who are caring for sickness in the families.

Somber Hue Is Favored for Coats BY FRANCES FAGEI (Copyright. 1930. by Style Sources.) NEW YORK, Dec. 12.—The formal note continues to be sounded in town clothes. Preference for black broadcloth trimmed with black Persian lamb is so general that one feels that other choices are of distinctly minor importance. Everywhere one goes the somber tone of black broadcloth and black flat fur coats is seen lightened by glimpses of the brightly colored frocks beneath, and although many of these are silk crepe, there are a j goodly percentage of light or vividly colored worsted dresses. These were all of wool crepe in a thin, opaque construction, noteworthy among them being one in Algerian yellow, another in a brilliant grass green, two or three in turquoise blue, one in aquamarine and several soft rose - tones approaching henna. With acceptance of the short fur jacket, especially in sports furs, such as lapin, the separate skirt’

and blouse come in for interesting consideration. Judging from costumes seen about town, tweed skirts often with matching tweed turbans, are preferred with fur Jackets. The logical complement for this costume is the wool jersey blouse, which has been having such a successful career this season. It would seem as if the fashion scheme ths year has been planned especially with blouses in view, for the tunic, the bi-color idea in blouse and skirt and the revival of the two-piece mode have been strong stimulus to the blouse demand. A brand new note in achieving the popular black and white ensemble, observed on the recent arrival of a liner, is white kiddiebutton spats. These white spats, complemented white kid clasp gloves and the piping of white which showed about j the neckline of a dress, worn with a *:oat of black broadtail of impeccable taste. t The coat was long enough to permit just a short interval of the hose to show, between hemline and the spats. Mrs. Mount Hostess Mrs. Charles Mount, 4048 College avenue, will be hostess Friday at a guest meeting of Xi Delta Xi sorority.
