Oregano, a member of the
mint family and native to the
lands of southern Europe, gives
just the right aroma to sauces
for spaghetti, tortellini, and
manicotti. It goes in every
well-seasoned tomato sauce
and a sly bit of oregano is used
with tomato and certain other
salads. One of its Italian names
meaning "mushroom herb" indi-
cates its importance in mush-
room dishes, It gives a delight-
ful flavor fillip to cheese dishes
of all kinds, lamb and fish fill-
ets. Small wonder it's one of
the great herbs not only of
Italy, but of Greece, S p a in ,
Portugal and southern France.

Honey can be a delightful
way to add sweetness to your
morning coffee, cereal, or waf-
fles. Dilute honey with water
(about 1 cup honey to 1/3 cup
water) for the consistency of
maple syrup.
PASTA CON BROCCOLI—Both pasta and broccoli are
Italian favorites; flavor the dish with oregano if you'd
give it a completely authentic aroma.

Dear Ann Landers: That letter
from the wife who complained
1, about her Sports Nut husband
could have been written by me
a year ago, Today I am writing \II\ a different kind of letter.
Seven months ago my Bill was
ent to Viet Nam, I've bad
p enty of time to sit around and
think about what is important
in a marriage, I know now that
many things I made an issue of
are not worth talking about.
I recall the times I chewed
Bill out because he sat glued
to a Packer-Bear game, or the
All Star game, or the East-West
game, The weekend he left me
and the children to play in a
golf tournament I really blew
a gasket. I refused to talk to
ihim for two days.
Right now I'd give anything
if my Sports Nut was in the
next room watching TV. But I'll
have to wait five more months
for that privilege. When I do
get him back, with God's help,
I will be a mature, loving and
understanding wife. — IvITs.s

Dear Ann Landers: I just read
the letter from the Pittsburgh
teen-ager who exchanged a few
polite sentences with an elderly
*man while waiting for an ele-
vator. He offered the girl $5
for just being pleasant. I'd like
to tell you what I got for try-
ing to be pleasant to a teen-
ager recently,
I was in a garage waiting for
my car when I heard two girls
talking. I judged them to be 15
or 10 years old. One girl said,
"My mother will kill me when
I get home. It's almost 5:30
and I should have been home an
hour ago,"

had had to stay after school,
and the answer was, "Yes."
The first girl said she would
have telephoned her mother but
she didn't have a dime. Her

Goodbye1966;
Hello 1967
BELMORE--We have come to
the end of another year. Here
in Belmore, 1966 was good to
most of us. Oh yes, it held
sorrow and discouragement for
some at one time or another,
but looking back on it now, it
was probably all for the best
and we could steal Frank Sin-
atra's words and say, "It Was A
Very Good Year"!
Belmore lost some fine folk
last year, some moving away of
their own free will, others be-
ing taken from us by death. We
added to our pleasant little vil-
lage a new family, a brand
new sign announcing our loca-
tion, a spanking new home
(and a beautiful one), a num-
ber of new cars, and hence - a
number of residents too broke
to buy a toothbrush! One of our
stores received a new coat of
paint, and one of our churches,
a new minister.
Our Squirt hockey team went
barrelling to the top of the
heap -- and weren't we proud
of them! And weren't they
proud of their new jackets?
All in all, it WAS a good
year. But not half as good as
this next one will be. For this
is Centennial Year, a year that
we are all remembering how
proud we are to be Canadians
and how fortunate we are to be
able to participate in her 100th
birthday celebrations. Should-
n't we all be planning some-
thing special for Centennial
Year -- something we can do
for Canada, in return for all
site has given us?

PORK SHOULD BE
WELL COOKED
Fully-cooked or ready-to-
serve ham can be eaten without
further cooking although it may
be heated before serving. Regu—
lar or cook-before-eating ham
must be cooked until well done
before serving.
Speaking at a public affairs
forum, a Toronto housewife
stated that a family of three
could eat well on $15 a week.
The opinion roused several
scoffers, and one in particular
who claimed she regularly
spent $30 a week to feed her
family of three.
So Mrs. Cathryne Armstrong
who is a mother of five and al-
so president of the Toronto
chapter of the Canadian Associ-
ation of Consumers, agreed to
try to draw up a week's menus
that would be based on proper
nutritional values and actual
supermarket prices. The at-
tempt was quite successful.
Mrs. Armstrong's food basket
came to a total of $14.58.
The daily menus, as pub-
lished in the Toronto Globe iC
Mail, are quite attractive,
Breakfasts include orange or
tomato juice, hot cereal, eggs,
toast and jam, coffee or tea -,
and bacon on Sunday. Lunches
are made up of sandwiches and
soups from leftovers, plus fresh
fruit. For dinner, tea was on
the list six days a week, and
coffee on Sunday only.
For Sunday dinner Mrs. Arm.,
strong served roast beef, baked
potatoes, turnips, rolls and Ap-
ple pie, Monday: lamb patties
cabbage salad, creamed pota ,
toes, ice cream, Tuesday, cur,
tied chicken wings, potatoes,
sprinkle over asparagus spears.
Spoon seasoned melted butter
or margarine over all and
sprinkle with grated cheese,
Place under preheated broiler
and cook until cheese is lightly
browned, about 1 minute. Cut
in crosswise slices and serve
immediately. Yield: 6 servings.
ARTICHOKE SOUP
A LA ROMANO
1 pkg, (10 oz,) frozen artichoke
hearts
4 tsp. ground oregano
1/8 tsp, ground mace
2 cups chicken consomme
sour cream, optional
METHOD
Place all ingredients in a
saucepan, Bring to a boil, re-
duce heat and simmer 10 min-
utes, or until artichoke hearts
are tender. Transfer mixture to

Serve immediately with a
spoonful of sour cream, if de-
sired, Yield: 4 servings.
men following the star in the
east as his Scripture. He said
God showed might and creative
activity in sending Jesus to
make certain that souls of men
could be saved. The real
charm of Christmas calls for
love, admiration and joy, and
the incarnation by which the
Word became flesh and dwelt
among us.
He who gives out peace will
find it returns. God is the cen-
tre of action for peace in the
home, ending of strikes, and
peace among nations. The
peace of God is penetrating and
influences the life from within.

Dear O.C.: I don't like it but
I 'hope you won't let one ungrac-
ious little snip sour you against
all teen-agers.
Dear Ann Landers: My grand-
father is stone deaf, and his
eyesight is failing. My boy friend
and I were practicing some new
dance steps last night and
grandpa came in. He couldn't
bear the music and didn't realize
we were dancing. He told my
boy friend to get out and stay
out.
Grandpa then went ito my
mother and told her a wild
story. My folks are unreasonable
and will not listen to my side,
Can you help?—GROUNDED.
Dear G.: Parents Should
understand that there's a Whole
new world out there since we
were teen-agers. Dancing isn't
what it used to be, but then
what is? If our parents sur-
vived the black bottom and the
dharleston and the shag. we can
live through the monkey and
the jerk, I wonder what sort of
dances your children will be
doing!

many housewives would look at
that list and sniff that such men-
us might be alright for some
people, but their families cer-
tainly wouldn't like them. Fa-

chips and frozen french fries

demand more from the boss.
Could it be that this attitude
-- that it is pointless to try to
stretch the dollar, the practice
that used to be considered only
sensible -- is part of the reason
why there are so many strikes
in Canada today? And, since
higher wages mean higher pro-
duction costs, could it be part
of the reason why prices keep
going up? -- Ily C. J, Harris,
