AND MRS. RICHARD SCOTT GATES Early November nuptials 1 LB. BAGS 48 OZ. TINS With SHIRLEY J. KELLER Gumdrops are one of the tastiest candies I know, but it Seems that few of our cooks use gumdrops for cooking, I'm very sorry to report that I have been unable to find a recipe for gumdrop squares, so if any of you gals out there have one but haven't sent it In because you were worried I'd be swamped with replies, please jot it down and mail it in time for nest week's issue. I did manage to scrounge the next best thing — a recipe for gumdrop cookies and one for gumdrop cake. GUMDROP COOKIES 1 cup all-purpose flour 1/2 tsp, baking powder 1/2 tsp. baking soda tsp. salt 1/2 cup soft butter or margarine 1/2. cup brown sugar (packed) 1/2 cup white sugar 1 egg 1 tablespoon water 1 tsp. vanilla 11/2 cups oatmeal 3/4 cup gumdrops cut into small pieces 11/2 cup coconut Shape into balls and place on ungreased cookie sheets, Bake at 350 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes. Makes about 5 dozen. * * * GUMDROP CAKE 2 eggs 1 cup sugar 1/2 cup butter 1/2 tsp. salt 1 tsp. nutmeg 1 tsp. cinnamon 1 lb. gumdrops (no black ones) 1 lb. seedless raisins (white) 2 tsp. baking powder 1 cup milk 2 cups flour Chop gumdrops into small pieces. Raisins may be chopped if desired. Cream butter and sugar. Break in eggs, one at a time, and beat well after each. Sift dry ingredients and add alternately with milk. Add floured fruit. Bake in moderate oven, Let cake ripen for one week before cutting it. * * * Apparently some of you ladies are calling the office when I'm not in. Actually, I'm in my office all day Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday (I turn into a' housewife and mother sometime Wednesday afternoon). You may leave your requests and recipes with the girls who answer the telephone. They are all housewives who understand the lingo of cooks. You may prefer to leave a telephone number. I will call you first thing Monday morning. Or you may take the time to write me a note. In any case, please get in touch with me. I'ni anxious to hear from each one of you who reads this column. By the way, I want to thank those gals who recently took the time and effort to jot down Christmas recipes for our weekly feature, The Christmas Recipe Box. This week's is a recipe for a dark fruit cake (a couple of you girls told me you missed the last one). Next week, it will be a recipe for an inexpensive but delicious Christmas pudding and sauce. I've also received a recipe for a lovely light fruit cake, and another for an old-fashioned Plum Pudding. I'm still looking for some nice Christmas cookie recipes and the directions for preparing a Christmas punch. Closer to Christmas, I hope to be able to enlarge The Christmas Recipe Box to include two or three recipes each week. It all depends on you good cooks out there. * * Got your Christmas cards addressed yet? I've got a system which works well. If you are the type who can watch TV with one eye and do something else with the other, you should be able to get your Christmas mailing ready with a minimum of effort. I keep my list, my cards and my pencil close to my relaxation chair. I find it is a simple matter to address five or ten cards in an evening while I'm enjoying TV. During the commercials, I may even find a moment to include a personal note. Come the last mailing date, I've completed my work in a very easy manner. No fuss at all, * I've got some more ideas for Christmas decorating. I certainly hope you are using some of them to make your homes as festive as possible, FLOWER WREATH There's no hard and fast rule that a Christmas wreath must be made of greens and pine cones, and you may find it more fun to make one from materials, such as artificial flowers, that you have around the houSe. A very handsome wreath can be made from plastic snapdragons that are past their "first bloom", First, make a bine-inch diameter circle from heavy wire, or a bent coat hanger will also do, and curve four stalks of snapdragons around it, Wiring them into position, Then fill in the bare spots between the stalks with l'eav'es, Finally spray the wreath liberally with either gold or silver spray. As soon as it is dry, a crimson velvet or Satin bow, tied at the bottom, will give it 'a truly opulent look, * * POIVI POMS Plump, decorative porn Porna canbe made from the plastic bags -dry cleaners return clothes in, or from polythene film bought by the yard at most hardware stores. They are made exactly the same way as woollen ones, using one-inch strips of plastic film instead of wool yarn, It takes the film from one garment bag to make a porn porn the size of a tangerine. The porn poms can be used "as is" or a lovely, shimmering effect can be achieved by lightly dusting them with gold or silver spray. Using fine sewing thread, they can be hung individually, or in clusters, or you might even prefer to use them as the final touch to a very special gift package. Light, bouncy, and unbreakable, plastic porn poms have years of decorating "wear" in them. * * * PLASTIC WREATHS A shimmering plastic Christmas wreath makes an ideal decoration for the front door, because it will withstand the weather in spite of its glamorous appearance. A wire coat hanger, plus a few polythene bags that dry cleaning is delivered in, are the basic materials required, First, shape the hanger into a circular hoop. Then cut strips of polythene about six inches long and two inches wide. Each strip is tied tightly to the wire hoop, sliding the knots closely together in order to make the wreath as bushy as possible. When the hoop is completely covered, spray the finished wreath lightly with silver, gold or green spray. It will dry in minutes. Then make a bow from weather-proof, plastic ribbon and attach it to the top of the wreath where it will hide the hanger hook. The beauty of this wreath is that it can be made in an evening, yet can be used for more than one year. Easy to store, its original, fresh look can be regained simply by re-spraying it before it is hung again. Legion ladies donate $150 Thirty-four members attended the regular meeting of the Legion Ladies Auxiliary with Mrs. Cora Wurm presiding. The group donated $150 to the retarded children's fund to finance transportation for two months to the school at Centralia. Nomination of officers was held with Mrs. Lois Brintnell named new president. Joint installation of officers with the Legion members will be December 27. Auxiliary bursaries were presented Friday evening to SHDHS graduates Janet Miller, Dashwood, and Jim Noakes, Exeter.

LB. 694 LB. 494 LB. 794 LB. 594 LB. 794 394 Sharon Joyce Faulder and Richard Scott Gates were married in early November by Rev. Fredrick G. James in St. Marys Anglican Church, Brinsley. The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alvin F. Faulder, RR 2 Ailsa Craig, and Mr. and Mrs. Beverley Gates, London, are the parents of the groom. Rustic orange mums, yellow roses and gold sprayed wheat set the scene for the ceremony. The bride, on the arm of her father, wore a floor-length wedding gown of white French Alencon lace and lagoda. The lace bodice was highlighted by a bateau neckline, elbow-length sleeves and an empire waist touched with a tiny bow. Elegance was portrayed in the gently controlled A-line skirt accented at the front by a pleat. The main center of attention was focused on the detachable chapel train cascading at the back from a tailored bow at the neckline, and completely silhouetted with hand-clipped appliques of the same lace. To complete her bridal outfit, the bride wore a French pure silk illusion fingertip veil caught up by a cap of delicate chantilly lace touched with tiny seed pearls. She carried a cascade of stephanotis, rustic orange rose buds and gardenias. Mrs. Sandra Idle, sister of the bride, Scarborough, as matron of honor and Mrs. Carol Lightfoot, sister of the bride, Chatham, Mrs. Brenda Gates, sister-in-law of the groom, London, and Miss Susan Ferguson, London, as bridesmaids, provided a colorful background in their floor-length gowns of moss green silk velvet. Bateau necklines and elbow-length sleeves made way for empire line waists trimmed with velvet piping while the skirts were neatly A-lined. They carried yellow rose buds, rustic orange mums and gold sprayed wheat.
