Everyone will be making candy for Christmas, so I am sending in a recipe that I think is extra good. 2 cups granulated sugar 1 cup peanuts (shelled). Put the sugar in a frying pan. Stir It all the time so that it won't scorch, but so all the lumps wiU be melted out. Pour the peanuts in and stir well. Pour this onto buttered plates and leave until cool enough to break.

"Ten days more," says jolly Ned. "I hope that old Santa will bring me a sled. And a sheepskin coat to keep out the cold. And a story of pirates hair-raisi- bold."

We do wish we had more space for poems. Nearly every week we have to leave out some excellent material. And folks like poems. One old gentleman that was doing some painting for us a man you wouldn't think would read much poetry said one day, "My, those Utile folks write fine poems, don't they? I always read their poems whether I read anything else or not." But we do have to limit our numbers some way, so if good things are left out it can't be helped. First place, 100 points, went to Herald Naomi Shore, Murray; 50 points were awarded to both Knight Master Janet Higgs, Bingham, and Esquire Lois Milton, Green River; 25 points went to Lael Woolsey, Salt Lake, and 25 to Esquire Wanda Pack.
