Having enough goodies on hand to greet your little friends when they come knocking at your door can often present a problem. Many of us still tend to do things the easiest way and end up buying candy rather than making our own. I have several recipes which should reduce the costs of your treats, and which I am sure you will enjoy making. First off all, to set the mood for your own youngsters, I suggest you serve them `burger -spooks' for lunch or dinner. BURGER -SPOOKS 1 Lb. Ground Beef Cheese Slices Hamburger Buns Prepare the ground beef as you ii/ould for hamburger patties. Using a sharp knife, cut out Jack`o'lantern designs on the cheese slices. Toast the ham- burger buns under the broiler. Put a cooked hamburger patty on each bun half. Then, put a cheese slice on top of this. Place under boiler until cheese begins to melt. (You can also make these using just the cheese slices on the toasted bun.) 0-0-0 Popcorn balls seem to have a special place in every trick -or - treat bag. This is also one of the less expensive treats for mothers to make. You will need a bag of caramels which will cost you about 2 cents per caramel, and popcorn, which again is very inexpensive. CARAMEL POPCORN BALLS 1/4 lb. caramels 1 tablespoon water 3 cups popped corn Melt caramels in water in a saucepan. over low . heat. Pour over the popcorn which has been placed in a greased bowl. With wet or greased hands, form the popcorn and caramel mixture into tiny balls about the size of a golf ball. Makes about 20 popcorn balls: , 0-0=8 When I was a youngster, I looked forward to Hallowe'en night just to get a taste of tome - made chocolate fudge. I suppose there are a good many children today who will be looking for that same treat next week. I don't know what the secret ingredients were for the fudge I enjoyed, but I have two fudge recipes in my collection that I feel will please any taste buds. CHOCOLATE FUDGE 2-8 oz. packages semi sweet chocolate 1-15 oz. can condensed milk 1 cup chopped nuts 1 teaspoon vanilla Melt chocolate in top of double boiler. Add condensed milk and stir until _-thick. Remove from heat. Add vanilla and nuts. Pour into a greased pan and chill until firm. FIVE MINUTE FUDGE 2-3 cup undiluted evaporated milk 1 2-3 cups granulated sugar Vz teaspoon salt 11,2 cups minature marshmallows 11/2 cups semi -sweet chocolate pieces 1 Teaspoon vanilla Combine evaporated milk, sugar, and salt in saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring constantly. (Start timing when mixture starts to bubble around edges of pan.) Remove from heat. Add marshmallows, chocolate and vanilla. Stir vigor- ously for one minute or until marshmallows are completely melted. Pour into 8 inch square buttered pan. Garnish with nuts. Cool. Cut into squares. HOUSEHOLD HINTS: Don't throw hard paint brushes away. Put them in a saucepan' of vinegar and boil them. They'll come out as soft as new ones. Place a nail in very hot water before driving it into a plaster wall. It lessens the danger of crumbling the plaster. Modern Etiquette By Roberta Lee Q. Do you think it is in good taste for a divorcee to be the honoree at one or more small parties before her second marriage? She did not live in this town during her first marriage, and her prospective bridegroom was not previously married. A. I see no reason at all why she should not have parties given for her. Q. Is it permissible at the table to cut a croquette with the knife' A. No. Both the cutting and the eating of this item are performed with the fork. Q. What is the correct way to eat bread, biscuits, or rolls? A. Bread is the most mishandled of all foods. It should be broken, a small piece at a time, buttered, then placed in the 'mouth. Never take a whole slice of bread on the palm of the hand and plaster it with butter. The same small -piece -at -a -time rule applies to biscuits and rolls. Q. 1 see more and more women shaking hands with other women and men upon being introduced. Is this now considered the proper thing? A. Although still optional. I like women who shake hands ... showy more sincerity and warmth over a meeting or introduction thafn just a nod of the head. BURGER -SPOOKS set the mood for trick -or -treating. Serve them at lunch or at dinner and watch your youngsters gobble them up. Depending on how much you let the cheese melt, you can create some real spooky faces. Try it . . . you'll like it. 2x4 -8's ECONOMY KILN -DRIED Spruce and Jack Pine, 96" or precision end trimmed to 92-5/8".
