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. Keep
several cans on hand for eating

As We Live
Many "Adults" Are
Socially Immature
Most people, by the time they
reach adulthood, learn to get
along reasonably well with their
fellow men.
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.

ly ELIZABETH HUKLOCK, PH.D.
have qualities different from his.
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.

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. -

that the worker who has only
