Corn Bread Stuffing_
Traditional As Thanksgivingl
BBMWMWHHiMli|llllllflMlllllllll ii - t n t|hhiii im .. ...
Try Com Bread Stuffing this
year in the roast chicken or
Thanksgiving turkey and you’ll be
serving your family food that’s
truly traditional. Cooking with
corn meal is one of America’s
oldest customs.
At Thanksgiving time, more
than any other season of the year,
we are mindful of our country’s
early settlers. Their struggles were
legion, with survival depending in
large measure on their food sup
ply. While the men went in search
of bird, game and fish, the early
homemaker concerned herself with
the precious corn friendly Indians
had taught them to live by.
Today, it is an easy matter to
select a fine turkey or roasting
1 chicken at the local market and
to mix up a batch of corn bread
for stuffing the bird. Corn meal
still is a staple food in the Ameri
can kitchen, and today, as yester
day, good cooks herald corn bread
stuffing as more than a tradition.
They like its texture, its taste, and
| its resistance to sogginess.
Your Thanksgiving bird will be
“well-dressed” with its com bread
stuffing.

Hawaii Statehood —
Sen. Hugh Butler (R-Neb.),
who will head the senate interior
and insular affairs committee in
January, predicted Wednesday in
Washington Hawaii will be ad
, mitted to the Union as a state by
the next congress.

hood will be denied to Alaska.

dles such legislation, opposed
statehood for both territories when,
it was proposed earlier this year.
“We’ll have a statehood bill for
Hawaii,” he told a reporter, “and
it is my prediction it will pass. I
am inclined to think I would sup
port it this time.’’
