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

Mm. X. D
My illegitimate
son. wants to confront his fath
er.
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

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

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.
