Surrealist Color Schemes and Wise-Cracking Comics Missing

By MARIAN YOUNG

Times Special Writer ‘The majority of the smartest of this season’s Christmas cards are essentially simple, with sentiments that reflect to a large extent the

deeper significance of the day. There are novel types, to be sure, but fantasic modernistic designs, ornate motifs, the bizarre color schemes of surrealist suggestion and wise-cracking comics are, generally speaking, among the missing. Some of the greeting are casual and informal, but nevertheless they all convey a sincerely joyous message. Many 1938 Christmas cards are of religious inspiration. The Holy Family, the Three Wise Men, etchings and engravings/ of cathedrals and reproductions of famous paintings are widely used. The loveliest of these are obviously intended for later framing—and, accordingly, are most often on conventional cream or white paper. In less formal cards, the modern theme is prevalent. The favorite sports of young America also inspire a variety of appropriate greetings, with skating, skiing, polo and golf well represented. The horseman has steeds galore from which to pick and choose. The bridge player has a card showing a perfect hand in hearts which wishes “all the honors” along

with the Christmas greeting.

Children’s Cards For your child to send, there is

a wonderful selection of small animals that fold up to go in envelopes, but stand upright when unfolded. She simply scrawls “Merry Christmas” in her own childish hand across the back of each.

If you want to have cards made

to your own specifications, perhaps

these original ideas, sent by various

people last year, will furnish in-

spiration: : The mother in a particularly active household simply wrote a letter to Santa Claus telling him the most important, most interesting things each member of the family had done or accomplished since he visited them ‘the last time. The exciting trip she and her husband took during the summer, the prize the baby won at school, the oldest son’s graduation—all were briefly mentioned. Then the margins of the letter were decorated with holly

and mistletoe and the whole thing

printed in green ink on a simple, but rather large card. It saved her from having to write so many notes and made her friends pretty happy. Another family sent their greeting on a large white envelope in which all Christmas cards received could be kept. Another sent four cork coasters in a heavy envelope with a “Merry Christmas” sticker on one, “from” on another, “John” on the third and “Adelaide” on the fourth. When the stickers were removed, handy. coasters to use throughout the year. And, of course, many did and will continue to send informal snapshots of themselves on plain

Here's New Recipe for Gingerbread

It Will Taste Even Better With Special Butter

~. Icing on Top. . ! By MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX

Even a cake can get dizzy. Imagine frosted gingerbread going high hat. Rather delicious fun! Gingerbread High Hats

blespoons sugar, 1 beaten egg, 1 cup New Orleans molasses, 2% cups flour, 1 teaspoon soda, % teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ginger, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, % teaspoon cloves, u 1 cup boiling water. - Cream shortening and sugar until fluffy. Add beaten egg and molasses and ‘mix smooth. Alternate flour, which has been sifted with soda, salt and spices, with the boiling water. Beat until smooth. Place in greased and floured pan about 3 inches deep. Bake in moderate oven (350 degrees F.) for 45 minutes. Or pour batter into wellgreased muffin tins and bake in 350 degrees F. oven about 20 minutes. When cool, remove the cake from the pans and smooth the following icing on top. Butter Icing Four tablespoons butter, 1% cups confectioner’s sugar, 11 teaspoons milk or cream, 2 teaspoon lemon extract, % teaspoon vanilla. Cream butter and sugar well. Add liquid and flavoring and stir until smooth. Spread on cakes. . This icing requires no cooking, and is very easy to make. Cut the cakes from side to side so that pieces in diamond shapes will be the result. Top each piece with one marshmallow to represent a high hat. If the cake has been baked in muffin tins, frost each cake with the icing and then place a marshmallow on top. i Here's another pleasant oddity. Dates and fresh limes, nuts and orange go into one jam recipe.

‘Juices Remove Stains Lemon juice and tomato juice usually are quite effective for removing most stains from the

hands.
