LEHR THANKSGIVING AT IIOME! "Daring Ills boary head, the Excel- leat Elder of Prjatonth Said 'Let s pray J f And the prayed ; Ajd tbaaked the Lord asd took cooragt! ' By JAMES A. JilLLS I Auociated Press Correspondent) MOSCOW (AP) A new cal endar ita 72 week in the year, tlx weeks in the month and only five daysn each week,-has been drawn herp. It Is designed t fit the ton-stop, round-the-cloek; five-day work.. week recentry Ih atttated bi.Ru8lan industry, T The Academy of Sconce haa (one. over the projected calendar and approTed it. It has now been referred for further study, to th Council of Teople's Commissar ies, which corresponds to the min isterial councils in other countries of Europe. Saturdays and Sundays are sim ply done away with In the new calendar. There will be 30 days 1b each "month and each day of the week will always fall upon the game days in each month. A bit of calculation reveals that this fixed calendar calls for only SCO days in the year. This does not agree with the 1 sun on its course, for Old Sol iusirts upon taking 365 1-4 days for his an nual round, the fraction being en ough to bake an eit'ra day eyery fourth year, calling for February 29 In western, calendars and mak ing Leap Year, the delight of spin sters. A thiug like that, however, does not stump the sovfet government; accustomed as it is to cutting the Gordian knots of capitalistic civll xaUons. It simply decreed that these extra five days each year and the added 24 hours of leap years should be celebrated as holidays. These days are off in a cate . gory by themselves. They belong . to no one month and are scattered through the calendar. The day devoted to the memory of Lenin, who la venerated as father of the proletarian revolu tion, is first on the list. It is fixed to come at the end of January, or rather right after that month. In between January 30 and February l Lenin win be reveaiea ior zt -. hours but the vent will not he allowed to disturb: the arrange ment making January 30 fall on a Friday and February 1 on Mon day, the next official day. Similarly there wHl he holidays between May 1 and May 2 and be tween November 7 and November S. It Is pointed out that this ar rangement, will always make May 1 the 121st day of the year, which It happens to be in the present calendar. : In Leap Tears the extra day will come as usual at the tail end of February, meaning that there will be an extra 24 hours every fourth year between - February 30 and March 1. The scheme works out to make .a standard monthly calendar as follows: Monday 1 Tuesday . . 1 Wednesday 3 ' Thursday ' - 4 Friday , 1L15. Tou may call this , yon will. The figures the 12 divisions in the year, The five-day wwlt-weelr, al- ready.ln force, has done away with a general day of rest A man works five successive days and '.rests one. Under the present cal- sndar he has no regular day of the Week for recreation, but under the sew calendar he can, tell,, by reck oning from his first day of work, lust; what days he will be off in .succeeding weeks each month. : . For example, a : man who starts n a job on the first day of a new month, would be at rest the fol . lowing Monday, the second holi- iay would come on Tuesday of the third week, the ethers on Wednes w day jot the fourth week, Thurs: iay of the fifth week and Friday of the sixth week. .Then, as the first of the month rolls around be would be starting the same tehed . air over again. .

In these-days-of gallop ing,, taxicabs, lurking Indians in the shape of obsequious bead wait ers and their pussyfoot attend ants, we spend halt of the week's pay check for an emaciated bit of dehydrated turkey swathed in pale gravy and dyspeptic dressing, grease-soaked potatoes traveling under French names, and a scrawny slice of plum pudding; and the afternoon in viewing a flat sort of modern play which Increas es the possibilities of Indigestion on the morrow. . For the Thanksgiving at home, we offer you these gleanings: If you follow tradition and serve the conventional turkey and fixin's why not be original in the make up?" . .

A clear soup al ways for a dinner: cream soups are too "filling and take from the appetite Instead of adding to it. - THE MAIN COURSE Turkey roasted of course. But did you ever wrap it; in paper brushed over with olive oil? (Ol ive oil stands a high temperature without burning.: This does away with the coyer of the roasting pan. Place the fowl.tn.the roasting pan with the breast downward, in stead of upward. This allows the juices to flow Into the breast part. making it ntce- and moist. . ' Of course the temperature or the oven Is most important 410 de grees or a quick even t first, then .after about 2K minutes a moderate oven 360 degrees for 20 minutes to the pound. No bast ing, no cover in the electric oven. One or the other preferably a cover, with' any other typo of fuel. Naturally the serving platter should be warm. In garnishing the fowl have pity on bin who carves,, and iX&ake It jimple. Sprigs of fresh yaTsley. water 'cress, celery Curls,' .1 and bright red radish ee, cut hi fanciful forms, are good. We can improve upon the his toric manufacture of dressing, stuffing or forcemeat interior of the fowl. Soggy masses of bread cemented together, with many eggs makes an indigestible death dealing concoction which as an au thor suggests "drives men thro dyspepsia to crime." Dry bread crumbs serve as the base, season ings are of vast importance and vary. A microscopic pinch of gar lie salt along with a lew nuts and a handful of raisins; sweet herbs and salt pork;; -parsley and lemon rind; eelery; sage and onion; -oysters, mushrooms seasoning's the thing!

A vegetable ring of carrots, onions and peas arranged. all oh a deep platter in order make a delightful appearance and simplify the serving... Casserole dishes of cabbage or cauliflower an gratia (scalloped with crumbs or cheese) are appropriate. Sweet potatoes- with prunes are different. Parboil sweet potatoes until tender.

Pour over all a mixture of - H or S-4 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon -.. cinnamon, cup watfr.i pot -with butter. -Bassist 810 1 degrees for 48 minutes -or more. Cranberries may be baked at the same time 1H hours 350 degrees. Use one quart cranber ries, 3 cups of sugar, and 2 cups of water. Put In covered baking dish. They jell beautifully when cold. A newer way to serve cranber ries, whieh fills two purposes Is cranberry salad given below. "Cranberry Salad Cook one quart of cranberries In three and a half cupfuls of wat er until tho cranberries have pop ped and the mixture is a rather mushy consistency. Meanwhile soak two tablespoonfuls of gran ulated gelatin In half a eupful of cold .water. , Strain the cranberry mixture over it, stir untilMt is dissolved and let stand until cool.

Put into wet molds, either individuals r or n large one.' Chill overnight before serving on let tuce leaves .with mayonnaise or boiled dressing. This makes eight or ten servings.

Crown roast of pork, baked bani, young roast pig, chicken pie and wild fowl are worthy substi tutes for the regal bird. if you want to dispense with- turkey.
