It takes a good deal of dar- ing to break with tradition when planning holiday meals. The whole family, especially grand- parents and the older aunts and uncles, expect the time-honor- ed vegetables which were good keepers from the root cellar in days past. Onions, turnips, cabbage and carrots provided the only flavor of freshness to be enjoyed during the early winter. Today, with new varieties of vegetables, grown by special- ists in our southern states, we can serve almost anything.Near- ly 50 different vegetables and fruits are stacked colorfully on mid -winter produce counters. It's even possible to serve corn - Florida and California fields are a -rustle with sweet corn. Mush- rooms, celery, cucumbers, tomatoes, eggplant, bush and pole beans, broccoli, Brussels sprouts and tomatoes tempt us to add the color, flavor and texture of one or more of these fine vegetables to the menu. • • • ORANGE-SWI;ETPOTATO CASSEROLE 3 lbs. fresh sweetpotatoes 3/4 teaspbon salt 1/3 cup sugar 1/3 cup butter or margarine I cup fresh orange juice 1 teaspoon grated orange peel i teaspoon grated lemon peel Wash sweetpotatoes but do not peel.

DRY ATMOSPHERE HARD ON PLANTS Don't overlook dry atmos- phere as a cause of house plant failure, warn horticulturists with the Ontario Department of Agriculture. Besides being in- jurious to the plants themselves, dryness invites such insect pests as ted spider mite, fern scale, and thrips. A simple humidi- fier (a pan of water on a radia- tor) will help, although this seldom provides enough moist- ure in the winter. Spray the plants occasionally with slight- ly warm water. Unripened cheeses such as cream cheese and cottage cheese are quite perishable. Keep them refrigerated and use as quickly as possible. Wipgharn Advance''Times, Thursday, Pee, 00, 1905 Page features from The World of Women Ann Landers Dear Ann Landers: My hus- band and I are in our .middle 40s. Both sets of parents live In this city. I'm writing about MY parents, not my ,husband's, so please don't accuse me of being hostile to my in-laws. The problem is this: We invite the folks to dine out with us about every six weeks. My husband's parents have good manners, but my parents' manners are so poor they embarrass me. I have tried to correct them but It doesn't do one bit of good. They continue to cut up all the meat at once instead of one piece at a time. They lean the knife against the plate in- stead of placing It across the plate when not in use. They often reach for something in- stead of asking that it 'be pass- ed. My parents are in their middle sixties but I've always believed it is never too late to learn. How do you f r.l about this?—TRIED BUT 4IIRED. Dear Tired: I envy you. And I'm sorry for you. That's how I feel. Here you are, in your 40s and lucky enough to have both parents. And nil you can think about is their poor table manners. You make me sick. 0--0--o Dear Ann Landers: Last y. ar when I was a junior at the state university I found it necessary to consult a psychia- trist. My roommate. who was also my hest friend, helped me a lot. I realize I made life difficult for her. I couldn't stand to lis- ten to the radio. I was unable to talk on one subject for more than five minutes because my concentration span was so limited. I was moody and irri- table and hard to get along with. I admit all this. When we parted last spring we were friends — or so I thought. There were no hard feelings and my psychiatrist Said I was "cured". During the summer I wrote her two letters and received no reply. Nowa she is in two of my classes and avoids .me like the plague. I'm beginning to think the only reason she was nice to me was because she was practicing amateur psychology. Now that she can't use me as a guinea pig any Longer I'm out of the picture, I feel very resentful and bit- ter. Am I justified?—L.T.S. Dear L.T.S.: This girl was your central prop at a time when you desperately needed one. Be grateful. She was far more compassionate than most roommates would have been. The girl has probably deeided that she is no longer going to serve as a support Which is her prerogative, Accept the decis- len. Dear Ann Landers: My sister and I are two teen-agers who nee somebody to stick up for us. We are having a terrible disagreement with our mother. Mom is the director of the church choir. We have been ordered to join—or else. She says she needs a couple of so- pranos she can count on, and we are it, .Ann, the chcir is made up of nothing but old people. Nobody in it is under 30 years of age. We would have to attend all the rehearsals and it would be a great big fat bore, Mom know how we feel but she says either we join or we get no privileges. We want to know if you would have forced this on your daughter when she was a teen- ager. All we need is a yes or no. Thank you.—RELUCTANT CANARIES. Dear Canaries: No. 0--0^-0 Dear Ann Landers: I'm a widow who has been dating a married man for 18 months. He says he loves me and I believe him, but on week -ends and holidays I am alone because he says he must be with his fam- ily. Do you call that love? I realize I'.m doing wrong but this man is the only ray of sunshine in my life. I would be miserable without him. I have heard about lonely hearts clubs where people get. acquainted through the mail. If I thought I could meet another man I would give this man up. What do you know about these clubs? Thanks.—PART-TIME LOVE. Dear Part -Time: llhis is what I know about the Loney hearts clubs: They are operated by scoun- drels who prey on lonely people like you. For a fee they will put you in touch with Gad knows who. The way to meet decent peo- ple is to go to decent places, ]i recommend church, adult -edu- cation classes, political organ- ization meetings and volunteer groups. (And brush off the part-timer, pronto). o--0--0 Awkward and self-conscious? Unsure of yourself?
