Thanksgiving
Turkey
By LORETTA C. LYNCH
OftinwA-the Thanksgiving: dinner
It spoiled to some extent because the
turkey is not what it is expected to
be. And the housewife who has paid
a fair price for the bird is disap.
pointed. Yet, there are certain points
w hich we may learn to look for in a
tender, juicy turkey.
Desirable turkeys have plump
breasts, black legs, and white flesh.
The breastbone should be yielding.
Pin feathers are an indication of
youth. If possible, select a dry
picked turkey. These will cost a
little more than the cold storage
variety, but their freshness and im
proved flavor warrant the price. Cold
storage turkeys are otten very
jvnoicsomr, nut one snouiQ not pay
as much for them.
A young cock turkey has small
spurs. As. a rule, hen turkeys are
best. Old gobblers are never good
Tor roasting, but one may disjoint
these and cook slowly in the fire
less until tender. Restaurants often
use them for making soup stock. But
it is-a waste of time and money to
attempt to roast an old gobbler.
If there is to be a large number
at the Thanksgiving gathering it is
much better to select two small
turkeys than one large one. By se
lecting two small ones, you will have
four legs and two breasts to serve.
Pin feathers may be removed by
pulling them with a vegetable knife
and your thumb. Hairs may be re
moved by holding the .bird over a
as flame or the flame of a burning
paper. '
It is desirable to n'move the ten
dons from the legs. To accomplish
this, bend the leg back to stretch
the skin (-ver the joint. Cut care
fully through the . skin. Break the
joint. Slip a skewer under one
tendon. at a time and pull than out.
Break off Jhe foot with the loose
tendons. ' ,
It is customary to save the gib
lets.. These consist of the. heart,
liver and gimrd. The gizzard is
bard and purplish. The liver is soft
and lies tiext to it. The gall blad
der must-be carefully cut from the
liver. If a drop of the gall escapes)
immediately wash the part it touches
as it is very bitter and" one drop
often affects the flavor of the whole
bird. , ' ;
Cut slowly through the thick wail
of the gizzard, stopping as soon as
the .inner sac comes into view. Peel
off the outr coat without breaking
the inuer sac, which may - contain
stones ,or coriv and throw the sac
away.: Wash the giblets and cover
these and the neck with cold water,
and simmer. Use this stock in
place of water when" making the
gravy..::'.! i-- (;..
: Allow about 20 minutes of time
Mr each' pound the birdTweighs. You
can easily! compute the time your
bird will require for roasting. Place
the turkey breast down on the roast
ing pan. Th will cause the juice
to run mto A the .otherwise cry
. . , . it . ' t. r
' A well-bred boy is taught to pay
first respects to his elders, ,and-to
other in need"- of some attention
from him, before he begins to please
himself, in the way of social enjoy
ment. This teaching so governs his
conduct in later lite that, for in
stance he will riot be likely to affront
a hostess tr any of her guests at a
dance by surveying the girls present
with an air of examining: their good
4ooirrt before he asks any of them
tor the pleasure of a dance.
This open ignoring or rejecting of
the less ypung, the less beautiful, the
less popular among the girls is an
act of impertinent selfishness, all' the
more cruel beciuse. of its publicity.
It hurts the feelings'-of those upon
whom, apprently, -, an unfavorable
verdict lias been rendered, and it
tacitly condemns the hostess for hav
ing invited gudsts who do not hap
pen to suit the taste of Mr. McEgo.
The young man beloved of all host
esses asks dowagers and "wall-flowers"
to ave some of their dances for
him. He is invited everywhere be
cause he makes himself generally
agreeable, and he finds his after
enjoynrant more intensified because
he has been trained to put duty be
fore pleasure.

Pumpkins and
Cranoerries
By LORETTO C. LYNCH.
Besides the colorfulness of the
holiday cranberry, it is just tart
enough to be desirable with lucious
poultry. It may be made into any
number of delightful dishes and be
cause jof its mineral" salts it should
find place on the table decidedly
more often than on just holiday oc
casions. To prepare a simple sauce from
the cranberry, wash the desired
quantity and put to cook in an
agate stew pan with ;just enough
water to prevent burning. When
sofi, press hrough a strainer.'
Measure the pulp. If a thin sauce
is required add one-half as much
sugar as pulp and juice. Cook for a
lew minutes and set to cool. -
If a jelly is desired that may be
moulded to stand alorie, add equal
parts of sugar to- what has been
pressed through the strainer. NCook
to the jelly stage, which in mostf
cases means about five minutes of
actual boiling. Pour into one or
niore moulds previously dipped into
cold water.

trouble, by all meansserve a cran

quart measure use(a mill bottle by

small servings you will require one

Many women are writing to ask
just hov to prepare the pumpkin.
There are two methods steaming
and boiling. A home-made steamer
may be contrived by placing one
cook-pot upon the other with a tin
pie plate, into which many holes
have been punched with a nail, in

apart, the seeds removed and then
the remainder of the fruit cut Wo

For Fruit Closet.
Remember that fruit and . vege
tables put up in glass jars should
always be protected from the light.
If your fruit closet is not dark,
if the shelves are open, an old win

makes an excellent protector.
The shade is easy to handle. One
hand will raise or lower the shade
