Happy Holidays Are Here Again!
How’s your stockpile of bright ideas for holiday entertaining? Here’s
a dessert idea that’s right in season and perfect for the busy hostess
or for the homemaker who likes to add special holiday touches to every
day tables. '
It’s Jellied Cherry Mincemeat — a beautiful, tasty dessert that is
so-o-o easy to make. You just mold mincemeat (the packaged variety)
in cherry-flavored gelatin. You’ll love the rich, yet refreshing, com
bination of flavors; the deep red color of the gelatin set off by an appeal
ing garnish of whipped cream balls topped with maraschino cherries
and mint leaves. This is a real holiday dessert — no matter when you
serve it!

thickened. Fold in prepared mincemeat and nut meats. Turn into mold
over firm gelatin. Chill until firm. Unmold. Garnish with sweetened
whipped cream, maraschino cherries and mint leaves. Makes 10 to 12

WHY, OF COURSE
You Read It in an Ad in the
VALLEY FRONTIERSMAN
Only do your merchant (and us) a favor, won't you, and tell him where you saw
the bargain advertised that caught your eye.
Your merchant wants to know if he is getting value received for his advertising
dollar. He has no way of knowing if his advertising is attracting readers, if you
don't tell him so.
And we want him to know it. too. We don't feel that advertising is a graft—we
honestly expect, when we sell an ad, that the merchant is going to benefit by that
ad. Sure, it's our business to sell him an ad, but it's also our business to sell him
the kind of ad that's going to bring him more business so we can sell him a bigger
ad next month. If's only as our advertisers prosper that we can grow, too.
So, remember, the next time you shop, tell your merchant:
