i ida Hyatt, for the past two years a senior vice-president of the auxiliary to the Veterans of Foreign Wars, came to Shelton approximately ten years ago. In Everett, her former home, she held office in the auxiliary to VFW Post No. 2100. Although she still holds membership in the Ladies of the Moose and in the Eagles auxiliary, both in Everett, it is the local VFW auxiliary that now claims much of her interest and many of her efforts. "The VFW auxiliary initiated a new project last Christmas," she states, "when we gave a party at Fir Lane Terrace Convalescent Center. My assistants were Andrea Jones and ldeUa Rutherford.

Her own variation tops the pudding with crumbled graham crackers and sliced bananas. She makes her lemon cheesecake with instant pudding mix.
