Start A Hew Holiday Tradit ion y The holidays --a time of joy and merrymaking for all --also brings with it a dilemma for the cook: wanting to try new and different recipes, yet not wanting to break tradition. This year, the choice is made easier with "Pumpkin Ribbon Pie." Prepared with unfavored gelatine, it's a combination of two well-loved holiday desserts in one -- two layers of spicy pumpkin pie with a "cheese­ cake" layer in the middle. And, the unflavored gelatine means that except for baking the pastry shell, you don't need to use precious oven space -- usually reserved for the turkey. You and your family will all agree, a new tradition has begun! PUMPKIN RIBBON PIE 1 envelope Unflavored Gelatine 3/4 cup sugar 2 eggs, separated 1 cup milk 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 packages (3 oz. ea.) cream cheese, softened 3/4 cup canned pumpkin 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves 9-inch baked pastry shell In medium saucepan, mix unflavored gelatine with 1/2 cup sugar; blend in egg yolks beaten with milk. Let stand 1 minute. Stir over low heat until gelatine is com­ pletely dissolved, about 5 minutes; add vanilla. In large bowl, using electric mixer, beat cream cheese until smooth; gradually beat in gelatine mixture. Chill, stirring occasionally, until mixture mounds slightly when dropped from spoon. In medium bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form; gradually add remaining 1/4 cup sugar and beat until stiff. Fold into cheese mixture. Reserve 1 cup cheese mixture. To remaining mixture, fold in pumpkin mixed with spices. Turn 1/2 pumpkin mixture into pastry shell; spread on reserved cheese mixture and top with remaining pumpkin mixture. Chill until firm. Makes about 8 servings. Country Christmas ARTS-CRAFTS SHOW The members of the Alden Community club have set Dec. 6 for their fourteenth Annual Arts and Crafts Show and Sell day.

When I'm around anyone I keep my head low for fear they make fun of me or laugh. Many my age (I'm 16) have the same problem but for some reason I don't notice it as being so bad. I've taken drugs hoping I would seem to be like others. It doesn't work. Help! I don't know how to oversome my problem. A. I know how you feel for I was the same way once. I got over inferiority feelings, shyness, inadequacy reactions by committing my life to Christ and practicing His teachings. You can get the same result the same way. We are sending you our booklet, "12 Steps to a Happy and Successful Life", which has helped others with problems such as yours. Anyone wishing a free copy may write to us at Box 500, Pawling, N.Y., 12564. Nothing is going right Q. My ex-husband lives with his young girlfriend with a year-old baby. Everything is going great for him. Since he left me after 21 years of marriage I feel useless. I have prayed to God to let me die. My children are all grown now. I have no friends, male or female. I am feeling so sorry for myself. Lots of good things have happened to me in the past, but nothing is going right for me now. If God loves me why am I so miserable? A. Your misery stems from the self-pity you allow yourself to wallow in. Stop thinking about all these "bad" things that are happening to you now and try to concentrate on what's good about your life. Start with thanking God for your health, a place to live, fresh air and sunshine. Then, do something for someone else. Volunteer. Get outside of yourself for a change, and soon good things will be happening to you again. Can't go on pretending. Q. I married a man for whom I care very much, but I'm not in love with him. I never have been. He never really proposed to me. He just took for granted that we would be married. So for nearly 7 years I've been pretending to be happy. But I'm not. I can't goon pretending anymore. I want out, but I'm afriad of hurting my husband and our three-year-old son. How long can a person go on pretending to be happy when they're so darned miserable? A. I'ts unlikely that you could be successful in pretending to be happy for such a long time/ No doubt your husband suspects how you fell. Why not be honest with him? You say you care deeply about him, and you have a lovely child. Depend on the trust and respect you have for each other to be your guide. Simply share your concerns with him and positively search together for solutions. You may be surprised to find a depth of feeling you didn't know was there. If there is something you would like to ask Dr. and Mrs. Peale, write to them at Box 500, Pawling, N.Y., 12564. BIRTHS PAGE 3 - PLAINDEALER • FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 21, ItM REFUGEE PUBLIC ASSISTANCE Gov.

All that is necessary is to alter a little thinking and a lot of intake. It isn't that hard. One should take a good hard at how one feels, what one orders, and be honest about bad eating habits when dining. Then, it is possible to find ways of replacing them with good habits. If a restaurant is known for "its "magnificent, splendiferous deserts" and they are a pitfall, it should be avoided. Particularly if that's about all the place is famous for. A restaurant should be chosen with a "variety of cooking where one can be sure of a choice of at least one or two broiled entrees. Fried foods should be totally ignored. It is best not to rush into the meal. Relax. Have a vegetable or fruit juice cocktail or a non-caloric drink. For something alcoholic, try a wine and club soda, or, as a fooler, have a club soda with a dash of bitters and a twist of lemon. Tell the waiter to skip the bread and butter because it won't be skipped once it's on the table. When ready to order, try not opening the menu. Ask the waiter to suggest a good broiled fish, chicken or meat entree. Substitute a vegetable or salad for rice, potatoes or pasta. For those who have to have a starch (and why not occasionally), it shouldn't be loaded with butter or sour cream or fancy sauces. That's where the calories really come into the diet. Take small bites. That doesn't make one dainty, just civilized. And chew the food well. Skip dessert or have a simple fresh fruit. Actually it's one of the most elegant of desserts.
