STUFFING FOR BIRD Roast turkey, naturally but it is the
walnut-sausage stuffing that makes this Thanksgiving bird dif-
ferently and especially noteworthy. Crispy walnuts and savory
eausage combine for a stuffing that is right out of colonial times
The recipe is in today's food column.

Walnut-Sausage Stuffing Gives
Colonial Touch to
Tranksgiving Bird
Thinking of Thanksgiving Day
and foods that will be festive,
savory, distinctive and not par
ticularly difficult of preparation,
we keep coming back to the per
fectly superb "colonial times"
dinner served your foods editor
. and 417 other people recently in
New York City at the Sheraton
. Astor Hotel.
Hosts for the occasion were
members of the American Spice
Irade Association which was
founded in 1905 and today in
eludes importers, agents, brok
ers, grinders or manufacturers of
packaged spices who do an an
nual spice volume of $150,000,
000. It is interesting that pepper
accounts for about one-third of
this dollar volume with all
. spices gaining in popularity right
along.
We're a long way from colonial
times and our town is a long
" way from Williamsburg but here
are home-size recipes used at
the spice trade dinner based on
dishes popular in 1740. And
they'll make perfectly wonder
ful eating right in your home
this week or any week, using
our plentiful turkeys, sweet po
tatoes, figs, greens, fruits, "nuts
and other good things.
Start With Savory
Soup and Sippets
Confidentially, we're going to
suggest a condensed tomato
soup, using water for thinning
instead of spending the day mak
ing a savory tomato soup start
ing with three pounds of beef
knuckle and adding 18 other
Ingredients. Just bring that good
soup to a simmer, pour into cup
or bowls and garnish generously
with chopped fresh parsley or
"chopped little green onions or
chives. Optional: While heating
add, a teaspoonful or so of Wor
cestershir sauce and maybe a
touch of garlic powder.
Sippets. Trim the crust from
slices of bread. Spread thinly
with butter. Cut each slice into
three lengthwise strips. Toast in
preheated hot oven, 450 degrees.
Our fore-fathers enjoyed dunk
ing these in the soup, hence the
name.
Walnuf-Sausage Stuffing
Here again we 'take a slight
liberty with our recipe of
colonial times. We substitute our
fine, flavorful, crunchy walnuts
for their chestnuts. Ever roast,
shell and skin a walnut?
Every west coaster knows how
to roast a turkey, so we're going
to concentrate on the stuffing.
. Enough here for a 15 to 18
pound turkey or for a smaller
one and an extra-stuffing cas
serole, or bake extra stuffing
separately in aluminum foil for
later enjoyment.
Brown one pound sausage
meat lightly in skillet along with
one cup chopped onion and one
cup sliced celery, being sure to
drain off all excess fat. Mix with
followig ingredients: one-half cup
chopped parsley, 3!2 quarts
toasted bread cubes, two tea
spoons salt, one teaspoon crumb
led whole thyme leaves, one tea
spoon crumbled whole marjoram
leaves, two teaspoons finely
crumbled sage leaves, one-half
teaspoon freshly ground black
pepper, one-half cup diced green
olives (optional, but good), two
cups chopped walnut meats, one-
fourth cup melted butter and
one-half cup water or turkey
stock from the giblets and neck
saucepan.
Fill turkey cavity and neck
with this mixture, handling with
a light touch and allowing for
expansion. Use leftover stuffing
as suggested above.
Mushroom-Giblet Gravy
This to be served and passed
in a gravy boat so each can help
himself acording to his notion
for topping the stuffing or on
whipped potatoes. Our American
ancestor-cooks gave gravy and
stew a rich brown color with
sugar or flour browned in but
ter. We think kitchen bouquet
does the iob beautifully.
Saute a few fresh or canned'
mushroom pieces or slices ana
two teaspoons minced onion in
three tablespoons turkey fat or
butter. Blend in three table
spoons flour; add three cups tur
key stock (made by simmering
neck and giblets until tender),
salt, black pepper and tiny bit of
garlic powder, then all those
good cooked giblets, chopped,
and one-half teaspoon or more of
kitchen bouquet. Cook until
slightly thickened. Stir in two
hard-cooked chopped eggs.
Sweet Potato Souffle
Our fine sweet potatoes or
yams take on holiday distinction
when fixed like this. Six serv
ings, so plan one or two cas
seroles according to family-and-company
at table.
Combine two cups mashed
cooked sweet potatoes, three
fourth cup hot milk, three table-

Snap Beans With
Peanut Sauce
We westerners often fix poul
try, fish and vegetable almon
dine, because we've plenty of
almonds and because we like
their crunchiness and flavor. In
colonial times, cooks fixed up
this peanut sauce for fresh snap
beans. We use frozen frenched
green beans for this. Either pea
nuts or almonds, try this:
Melt one-fourth cup butter in a
saucepan. Heat until brown; add
one-fourth cup chopped roasted
peanuts or almonds, owe-half
teaspoon salt, one-eighth tea
spoon freshly ground black pep
per and one-eighth teaspoon
ground nutmeg. Pour over (any)
vegetable. We often add a good
healthy squeeze of lemon juice
to this for a special fillip.
Spiced Figs Special
Recipe makes two quarts.
Fine with turkey the first day
and all successive days. Good
with pork and other poultry,
too. Take four cans (17-ounce
size) figs. Drain syrup and put
figs in saucepan. Add one-half
cup brown sugar, three-fourth
cup cider vinegar, one-fourth
teaspoon salt, two two-inch
sticks whole cinnamon, one tea
spoon whole celery seed, two
one-inch pieces ginger root. Tie
two teaspoons whole allspice and
lVz teaspoons whole cloves in a
bag and add. Bring to boiling
point; boil five minutes. Add
figs. Simmer (do not boil) 10
minutes. Cool. Remove spice bag.
Chill 24 hours or until ready to
serve. Everyone will like!
Shiny Pans Eliminate Common
Cause of Baking Failure
Heading into the full swing of
holiday entertaining means more
baking of hot-breads, cookies,
delectable pies, cakes for family-eating
and Christmas-giving.
Be sure to eliminate one of the
most common causes of baking
failure by shining your alum
inum pans to new brillance.
Cake pans that shine, outside
as well as inside, bake high, light
and evenly. This is due to the
shiny surface evenly reflecting
oven heat. Darkened pans, dis
colored by neglect, hold heat,

Society for Kindly Disinterment of
Once Opulent Slang in Monthly Meeting
By H. D. QUIGG
United Press Correspondent
New York tU.R) The
SKIDOOS met today (Society
for the Kindly, Intelligent Disin
terment of Once Opulent Slang)
It was the regular monthlv
meeting. A quorum of 23 was
present.
Members, on pogo sticks, en
tered a meeting hall done up as
a replica of a miniature golf
course, with several mahjong
sets in one corner. Each member
gave the password "Oh Yeah?"
to which the response
"Yeah!"
cause cakes to bake through be
fore they rise, and over-brown
on the bottom and sides. Shine
your pans regularly and you'll
be a better baker.
Quick Brown Bread
A speeded-up version of an
old-fashioned standby. Capture
a bit of the past by adding this
Brown Bread to your holiday
cooking repertoire. We modern
ized it by pairing soda with
vinegar for an assured leavening
power, instead of taking a chance
on the less stable acid content
of sour milk.
3,4 cup sifted all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
teaspoon salt ,
1 cup fine dry bread crumbs
Vi cup shortening
1 egg, beaten
cup molasses
3A cup milk
Vi cup vinegar
Vz cup seedless raisins
Sift together flour, baking
soda and salt. Blend in bread
crumbs. Cut in shortening until
mixture is fine. Blend together
egg, molasses and milk; stir into
dry ingredients until just
blended. Add vinegar and rais
ins, mix well. Pour batter into a
greased and floured 8x8x2 inch
baking pan. Bake in moderate
(375 degree) oven, 25 to 30 min
utes. Serve hot, perhaps with
baked beans, its traditional ac
companiment. Soup-Sauces Simplify Cooking
Condensed soups as sauces
make cooking so easy. For a
first-rate cream sauce add one
half can milk to each can soup.
Simmer gently before blending
with a pouring over other in
gredients. Celery-Cream Sauce is es
pecially good when served with
carrots, seafood, meat loaf.
Mushroom-Chicken Sauce is
just right for green vegetables,
meat loaf and casseroles.
The session opened with the
reading of the minutes of the
last meeting, which disclosed
the membership had voted to
disinter, and prepare for im
mediate usage, the following:
"Nertz," "Copacetic," "Cake
eater," "Sweet patootie." "Cof
fin nail," and "My stars!"
The chairman called for the
general order of business and
recognized Skidooer Sam Brown,
on the floor.
"Golly Ned, Mr. Chairman,"
Brown began, "I don't want to
be a worry wart, but I said at
the last meeting and I'll say it
again now any disinterment
AFL, CIO Agreed
On Appointments
' Washington (U.R) The AFL
and CIO have agreed on most
top staff appointment to their
unions, when they are merged,
it was learned today.
AFL and CIO leaders got
around one thorny issue by
agreeing to provide co-directors
to head the union's political arm.
They will be James McDevitt,
head of the AFL Labor's League
for Political Education, and
Jack Kroll, head of the CIO Po
litical Action Committee.
A similar compromise was ef
fected. for leadership of the legis
lative department. George Hush
ing, head of the AFL's legisla
tive division, and Robert Oliver,
head of the CIO's, will be co
directors. George Brown, an assistant to
AFL President George Meany,
will head the AFL-CIO Interna
tional Affairs Department, it was
said.
Appointment of a general
counsel still has to be decided,
it was said. However, informed
sources predicted that both CIO
General Counsel Arthur Gold
berg and AFL General Counsel
Albert Woll will hold positions
in the merged organization.
THREE BITES
Windsor, Conn. flJ.R) It was
positively the last straw for
John Movchuk, dog warden. For
the third time within a few
weeks, the same collie bit him

This time, Movchuk found the
dog's owner and made him pay
the doctor bill.

"So's your Aunt Emma,"
Wilco shot back.
"Gee Whillikers, kiddoes,"
said the chairman, "let's cut out
the confab and buckle down.
Time's a-wastin' and . . ."
"Where's the fire?" demanded
Brown. "I hardly have time to
say 'Greetings, gate' when you
bimboes give me the air. You in
a hurry to get outta here and
rush the growler or something?"
"Drop dead," said Widgeon.
"Point of order, Mr. Chair
