Christmas! --- that sparkling jewel in the long winter's cold-- is a
day when words are not enough. To capture its glow and its
potential we have to resort to songs and symbols, for this is the day
of the heart...
What does it mean? Watch the face of a small child as a little
voice pipes, "Away in a Manger, no crib for a bed" smell the tangy
fragrance of mince pies and cookies as preparations are made for a
grand family reunion. These delightful sights and sounds and odors
provide a partial clue.
But Christmas is much, much more. It is a rapping at the door of
our spirits, a call (unless we deaden it, with a surfeit of things), to
our warmest and best actions. It is a time to remember that life,
with all its shadows and frustrations, is wonderfully good, a gift to
be savoured and appropriated no matter what our circumstances.
It is a time to marvel at the mystery of a snowflake -- "What heart
could have wrought you, 0 filigree petal " -- to enjoy the blue
shadows that lie across the drifts, to—appreciate the sturdy
evergreen standing straight against the wind, It is a time to worship
and to revel in the joyful carols the cradled Babe has inspired over
the cenfurieS.
At Christmas let us be grateful for the past and let us give
ourselves to the future, Technological accomplishments are useful
and impressive, but it is the human values that give life quality and
depth. This well-loved interlude calls us to a new.,respect for
ourselves and for those other selves, who , with us, shape or share
this chapter of the human story.

bong- lasting of course are the
many kinds of colorful molds in
OVal, round, or loaf shapes - both
atrial' and large - made of
enameled iron, glass, pottery,
and tin.
In principle, the word "pate"
Should apply only to meat or fish
dishes enclosed in pastry and
baked in the oven. The term,
however, is also used, to describe
any preparation put into a pie
dish lined with rashers (strips) of
bacon or pork fat and baked in the
oven. The latter type is usually
called a "terrine" but common
usage has applied the term
"pate" to these preparations.
These are always served cold,
whereas the real pates can be
served hot or cold. Cut into
generous slices and served with
crusty bread and "cornichons" or
pickled cucumbers, these
offerings are savory and
decorative additions to the
'..holiday table. Pates may be
served not only with French bread
or crusty rolls, but on a cheese
tray with assorted crackers or as
an open-face sandwich garnished
with olives, pimento or slices of
hard-cooked eggs.
Food Advisory Division,
Agriculture Canada has prepared
two economical recipes for
holiday feasting. The "quick
Liver Pate" requires few
ingredients and may be..prepared
in no time at all. A more elaborate
recipe , called "Chicken Liver
Pate" is just right for the person
who has more preparation time on
Host has
to watch
,booze
What's the likely response to a
Christmastime get-together
without booze?
Boos, of-course.
Frankly, you're mistaken if you
think you'll incur the displeasure
of friends and neighbors if you
refuse to serve them alcohol.
Some might be offended, but you
may be surprised to find that the
majority would enjoy a non-
alcoholic party, or one where.
alcohol is kept to a minimum,
perhaps even more than a party
where alcohol is flowing freely.
This, after all, is the season for
all good hosts to come to the aid
of the partygoer by recognizing
that the festive spirit doesn't all
come out of a bottle... by realizing
that seasonal fellowship and
goodwill cannot be poured into
people.,
You don't need to be a party
pooper, or a Scrooge, to celebrate
with your guests in a way that
doesn't equate being groggy and
pie-eyed with having fun.
For those who prefer to drink
something other than alcohol --
make alternatives available:
coffee, for instance, or . a fruit
punch. For those on the slronger
stuff, you don't have to issue a
ration book; but you can keep '
;heir drinks to measured one-
ounce shots, increasing the
amount of mix as the evening
wears on.
A further consideration of your
guests' livers -- and perhaps their
lives when you think how many
alcohol-related traffic accidents
occur at this time of-year -- is to
serve coffee and food at some
point during the party. This won't
cover up those who have bad too
mucb to drink, but it will separate'
them from"' the booze supply,
enabling them to metabolize
some of what they've consumed.
Wherl -it's time to call it a day,
the host who's .concerned for his
guests' safety would do well to
look closely at guests who are on
their way home.
Never mind getting them to say
"The Leith police dismisseth us."
Those who look as though they'd
have trouble kving safely should
be given a lift someone who
can, or put in a taxi .. or put up for
the night. M any drinking drivers
wind up not just with hanovers,
but as headlines, especially at
Christmas and New Year's for
what you might call the mourning
after.
Running a party where the
guests enjoy themselves without
seeing double or falling flat on
their faces doesn't mean you have
to be•mean just considerate. By
being a good Christmas host, you
help your guests live to attend
next year's party.

her hands. Grinding the meat and
liver will be easier if the fat is
removed from the meat and the
membranes and veins from the
liver. In this case, strips of bacon
are used to line the loaf pan. Thin ,
slices of unsalted p,prk fat may be
used in place of the bacon, but the
strips of bacon are easier to
handle. The bacon also adds
palate-appeal and flavOr, and is of
course thoroughly cooked after
two hours of cooking time.

In general, a pate is done with
the juices surrounding it run clear
when pierced with a sharp knife.
It will also come away slightly
from the sides of the' pan.
Refrigerating pates for two
days before serving enhances
• their flavor. As taken from the
oven, they may be stored,
covered, in the refrigerator for
about four days. They should riot
be frozen.

Christmas lights
signify hope
. All over Canada, the Christmas lights are shining. Blue,
green, gold and red, they sparkle, their radiance displacing
shadows here, highlighting them there,-both within doors and
without. Nothing could be a more significant symbol of this
season, nor, after the shock and fear of our unhappy fall, more
welcome. How we need light!
Christmas, of course, can be mere escape - for some even an
orgy - but for the thoughtful this returning celebration of the
Birth helps to restore our sanity and our humanity.
Machines may be everywhere, but Christmas reminds us that
it is man who makes and operates them, Laws may rule us, or try
to, but it is men who make the laws. Every neD:thrust forward,
every dream that lifts us even briefly from our sorry ruts, begins
in some human heart. Here lie buried the seeds of our hope and
our despair.
For a few precious weeks, thank God, 'hope is once more
ascendant. We dare believe that better and more significant
tomorrows may even now be lying in the cradles of Canadian
homes, as once they lay, for all men, in a,Bethlehem manger.
