Thanksgiving Menu Planning Easy When You Check This Chances are that the tradition al turkey will grace a vast ma jority of holiday tables; perhaps as much for the "trimmings" as for the bird itself since we west erners enjoy turkey often. Tur keys of all sizes are in good sup ply. Small turkeys, ready-to-cook, weight four to nine pounds have a special appeal to couples and small families. Medium size turkeys, table-dressed, range be tween 8 and 19 pounds and are popular for roasting whole. Twenty pounders and over are an especially attractive buy with toms usually lower priced than hens. Put your turkey order in now. Other Holiday Meats. Prime ribs of beef, pork crown roast, leg of lamb, hams; all are popu lar holiday fare along with do mestic ducks and geese. So take your pick and give thanks for the bounty of the west. Oysters. Our own good Pacific Coasters and easterners are plentiful for stuffing and other ways. Plenty of good baking, frying, broiling fish in good variety for every day eating. Nuts and Fruits. Bumper crops of walnuts, almonds, filberts; prunes, figs, dates, raisins for good eating and for fruit, vege tables and nuts table arrange ments and out-of-hand eating. Vegetables. Roots take holiday limelight; sweet pdtatoes, yams, turnips and small white onions are practically traditional; plent iful and; reasonable. Squash va rieties add interest. Fruit Buys. Plenty of local apples, colorful luscious grapes, winter pears and pick up a few persimmons for color as well as good eating. Fruits lend them selves ideally to table and buffet arrangements, along with autumn leaves. ' Cranberries deserve special mention, being inseparable from turkey. Lots of cranberries this year, both fresh and processed. Price of the canned whole cran berry sauce and the jellied va riety is surprisingly small.

They may. riot be as popular as they would like to be, but usually they have more friends than enemies. ' T -h e y have learned through the years of child hood and adolescence to give and take, to be a good sport when they win as well as when they lose, to hide their feelings and be pleasant when they are with people, and to be cooperative in anything that must be done. However, there are certain areas of their social behavior in which many remain immature. The three that are most common are: (1.) Prejudice. From their childhood days, many, individ uals carry over the belief that they are superior to certain other people. They may feel superior because of their race, creed, or color. Or it may be because they feel that they are brighter, more educated, and more experienced, and have more of this world's goods than many of those they meet. ' ' , Whatever the cause, they treat people whom they regard as their "inferiors" in accordance with that belief. A mature per son recognizes differences, but does not look down his nose and hurt the feelings of others who with leftovers, too. Pumpkin Pie Time. , Whether you pick it up at the local bake shop or make your own from a fresh pumpkin or from the can ned variety, consider the topping which can be whipped cream in any pattern you fancy or thin slices of cheddar cheese iri fancy cut-outs or special design.

Children Posscsi Wo (2) Attitude toward friends. Children are very possessive about friends. In their posses siveness, some feel that they have the right to tell their friends what they do not like about them and insist that they change. A socially mature per son accepts people as they are, likes them for what they are, and recognizes that they have as much right to individuality as anyone else. (3) Social responsibilities. There are far too many people who take the attitude, "Let John do it." They are the very ones who clamor most for their rights and object most strenuously when they feel that they have not had all the rights and privi leges, they deserve. But it ends there. They do not seem to recognize that with rights and privileges comes re sponsibilities to others and to their community, state, and country. LETTERS FROM READERS Blase Person: "Is being blase just a pose or do some people naturally feel bored with every thing?" Curious. (A) The blase person tries to create the impression that he is bored because everything is an "old story" to him. He is trying to make people think he has had so many experiences that there is no thrill for him in anything anymore. ' -v- Being blase is a pose and is not a natural reaction. Most blase people suffer from feelings of inadequacy which they hide behind a cloak of boredom. If they can make people think they are bored, it creates the' impres sion that they have had just about every experience there is to have, thus making them ap pear to be more experienced and more wordly wise than they are. Too Much Dating: "I have tried to convince my 16-year-old daughter that loo much dating takes away the excitement and thrill that a real romance' should bring. Already, I notice that she treats boys in a matter-of-fact way' :, Worried Mother. ' (A) You should be glad that your daughter is treating boys in a matter-of-fact way instead of being disturbed by it. True, she may not get all the excite ment and thrill from her dates that you seem to think are so important. But on the other hand, she is getting something far more important for her fu ture happiness a realization of what boys are like and a realis tic approach to the whole prob lem of man-woman relationships. Delicate Child: "My second son, who is now 11 years old, has always been delicate and I have had to watch him very closely. Now he is beginning to resent this and is often stubborn about such matters as wearing his rubbers on rainy days. This worries me." A Mother. (A) Are you sure that your son is as delicate as you think he is? Has the doctor told you that you must treat him like a semi invalid, or is this Just a carry over of habit from his childhood days? If your son were really delicate, he would not resent your .trying to keep him from overtaxing his strength. (COPYRIGHT 1954. GENERAL FEATURES CORP.) Mothers' Food Habits 5, Said Worst in Family Recent dietary surveys have shown what nutritionists have long surmised, that mother is apt to be the most poorly nour ished member of the family. . Miss G. Dorothy Williams, sup ervising nutritionist of the New York City Department of Health, points out that, even when the homemaker plans and prepares adequate meals for father and the children, her own food hab its may be poor. That tired feeling may result from Inadequate breakfasts, "piecing" during the day, a light lunch or none at all. Even when the dinner meal is adequate there can be a deficit in essential nutrients for the day, Miss Wil liams adds. - COMPANY COMING? Don't Fret!

Babcock of Rutgers university has found that the worker who has only coffee and sweet rolls for break fast is apt to eat high calorie snacks in mid-morning instead Of the milk, eggs, fruit or fruit juice he missed at breakfast.
