Domestic Rabbits Make Tender, Tempting Eating Domestic rabbit is becoming increasingly available. Fresh or frozen it i sold all year round. Tender, tempting rabbit meat can be used in most of. the ways chicken can. It is .fine-grained, mild-flavored, and practically all white meat. Like chickens the small young fryers; IVi' to two pounds, "ready-to-cook, may . be fried Or they may' be stewed and the meat used in' various recipes. - Larger rabbits need long, slow cooking in a covered ran to make them tender.

Burt He shouldn't be allow ed to roam fret; Mrs. R. D. Twenty years ago I gave birth. to an illegitimate child. I kept my son, and his father has given me adequate support to bring him up and is seeing the boy through college. T told my boy his father was j dead, riis lather wanted it that way because he was engaged to be married at the time of his affair with me. I have kept my part of the bargain. Recently, however, Burt found some pa pers of mine through which he learned the real story. He wants to go to his father and confront him. I am afraid if he does this, his father will withhold any future support. Besides, it does not seem right since his father has been fair to me and to him. Burt D. I want to meet this rotten character who deserted my mother and :ne. I just want to have one look at him face-to- face. ' I have made a few inquiries on my own and learned that my father has money. He could have done lots more for my mother and me and would have been forced to by law if my mother hadn't been so foolish. She'll let anyone take advantage of her. ' I can't understand a man who would want to disown his own son. ' Characters like that shouldn't be allowed to roam around doing as they please and not suffering the consequences of their actions. Who knows how much damage he has done to others? He wouldn t dare with hold support because I would expose him. . The Council: Burt has probed too far into his parents' secrets and is suffering the bitter con sequences. But he should real ize he has by no means gone to the depths of this affair and never can get to the depths of it. Burt says his father is not "suffering the consequences of his actions." How does he know this? Does he have any5 idea of what -it is like to keep a secret like this for 20 years? Does he know whether or not his father is suffering from a longing to see his son? Burt says his father could have done more for him and his mother financially. But does he know why his mother did not go to law and why she let his fath er "take advantage of her? Does he realize his mother might have some guilts of her own which she chose, to absolve in this way? Burt now feels very bitter and very moral, but he refuses to take an honest look at his own morality. He has gone through rus mother s private papers and exposed things she did not wish to have exposed. Now he states he is prepared to blackmail his father. - Burt is indulging himself in a childish tantrum of bitterness and self-righteousness. His par ents have done remarkably well for him under the circumstances 3 tablespoons flour Combine vinegar, water, salt, pepper, cloves, sugar, bay leaves and . onion in a bowl (not in metal). Add pieces of rabbit and sliced giblets. Cover bowl and let stand in refrigerator eight to 12 hours, turning pieces occasionally so flavor will be absorbed evenly. Remove rab bit. Save liquid and onion but discard bay leaves and cloyes. Roll rabbit in flour. Heat fat or oil in heavy pan and brown rabbit, when brown all over pour pickling mixture over rab bit. Cover and cook over low heat about 1 . hour, or until tender. Take rabbit from pan and keep it hot. Add Worcestershire- sauce to liquid. Mix the three tablespoons flour with small amount of cold water, add a few tablespoons hot liquid to it, and pour into hot liquid. Stir and cook until thick and smooth, then a bit longer. Pour over rabbit. Makes four servings: Carrot Parsley Balls. Wash and scrape carrots. Cut into balls with French ball cutter. Drop into boiling water and cookuntil tender, about 20 min utes.

He has no moral right to "confront" his father and to upset the compromise his mother has made. (Copyright 1956. General Features Corp.) Oregon Churches To Participate in 'Great Decisions' Corvallis An opportunity for Oregon churches to participate in "Great Decisions ... 1957" was announced this week when back ground matenas was sent to pastors of churches throughout the state. The eight-weeks' Great Deci sions pfogram, scheduled to start Jan. 20, is to inform the public on key foreign policy issues through participation of small, informal discussion groups. Started in 1955 in a few urban centers of Oregon, the program is offered statewide this year through sponsorship of Oregon State college extension service cooperating with the Foreign Policy association and interested state groups. Mrs. Mabel Mack, assistant dir ector of OSC extension service, said ministers of some 30 Ore gon churches in 17 counties have indicated interest in participat ing this year, following an nouncement of the program at the Oregon Town and Country church conference at Corvallis in mid-October.. Commends Program Dr. Mark A. Talney, Portland, executive director of the Ore gon Council of Churches, this week commended Great Dici sions as a guide for reaching Christian decisions "for the pre servation of mankind, as ten sions mount throughout the world." Church participation in world affairs discussions will be sought through young adult and teen age groups, Sunday school clas ses, and church study groups, Other examples of how churches might want to participate, Mrs. Mack said, would include spon sorship of public meetings to examine moral implications of certain Great Decisions issues. Details on how any citizen of Oregon may participate in Great Decisions may be obtained from county extension agents or Mrs. Maud Walker, group develop ment specialist at Oregon State college.
