Thursdays First Course.

The chances are that in the good old
days of yore folk began with the tur-
KEY, when they assembled to Symbolic
by satisfying their appetite for the
good things of the table. their thank
fitness for natures bountifulness. The
appetites of those old-time folk. sup
posedly, needed no whetting. Gastron-
omic experts tell US that the excuse for
oysters and bouillons. grapefruits and
hors d'oeuvre. is that they start the
gastric juices flowing, thus fitting the
digestive organs to handle the heavier
viands of the meal. Probably. then, the
gastric juices of those good old folk
needed no such batting. The very aroma
of the roasting turkey and the steam
ing pumpkin pie made their mouths
literally water.
But a less hearty generation has
found the need of the appetiZing first
course.
In planning the menu. therefore
think first of what you will serve first.
Remember that il must be tasteful
enough to accomplish it's desired re-
suits. and at the same time not SO
heavy as to begin to satisfy the APP
petite, for the courses that are to fol-
low are rather heavier than those we
are accustomed to.
For this reason it is sometimes ad-
visa BILE, even in the elaborate Thanks
giving dinner to skip fish course en-
tirely and even a soup course. oysters
go very well as an introduction to tur-
key, and they are especially toothsome
when served as a cocktail.
If a soup course is served let it be
light A savory boullon or a Julienne
is the best choice Preceding this you
might have a light fruit course. Grape
fruit served in cups is better than
when served in the shell. for an entire
half would be too generous serving.
a mix ture of oranges and grapefruits,
with possibly = few seeded grapes.
might be acceptable.
A first course of canapes has many
advantages for the Thank sgiving
starter These should be made from
small slices of bread Drowned by frying
them in deep Fat. rather than by toast
ing them, as they are more uniformly
crisp when made in this way Anchovy
or caviar paste is, of course, delightful.
but almost as appetizing would be a
tidbit of canned sardine seasoned with
pepper and lemon. A crisp round of
fried toast with the heart of a tomat to
dressed with a little lemon. salt and
pepper or an acid mayonnaise is also
a good selection.
But, whatever is you first course
avoid the thick soup, which is in reality
a meal unto itself.

OLLIE JAMES
ON WILSON
President Prayed With His
Cabinet That Peace
Might Prevail.

In his speech at jacksonville Tues
day. Senator Ollie James, in the
course of a great speech said:
THE only thing they've got against
Wilson is that he didn't hang crepe
on the door of the millions of Ameri-
can homes. They charge that he has
written notes-yes he has, and is
there anybody that can beat him writ
ing them? If some other rulers across
the Atlantic had written notes like
those written by Woodrow Wilson
there would have been no European
war. With his notes he has wrung
from the most militant power that
ever brooded over battlefield absolute
concessions in the matter of subma-
rine warfare and made it conform to
the demands of the United States.
Behold whilst our president who
loves mankind is busy graphing with
foreign matters to keep us out of.war,
there be those who shoot him in the
back.
"Behold Washington praying for
victory at Valley Forge; behold Lin
coin as he prays that the war of sec
tons might be averted; behold
Woodrow Wilson when he called the
cabinet together to consider the Lusi-
tania affair when he said to them:
Gentlemen | don't know whether
you believe in the efficacy of prayer
or not, but | do, and he knelt there
with those men in his office and asked
God that this country might be spared
from war, and that prayer was I'M
swered."
Senator James concluded his mag
nifcent speech with this peroration:
Behold this nation is at peace =
millions Of toilers and happy homes
with the family circle unbroken.
When all of the turmoil and tribula-
ton of this earth is over, and when
we stand in the great white light of
the judgment dawn, there will stand
Woodrow Wilson with clean hands
and a clear conscience, and the Mas
ter will say unto him: Blessed are
the peace makers, for they shall in
herit the Kingdom Of Heaven.

Democrats should bear in mind that
the vote for Stanley and Morrow last
year showed a majority for Morrow
in the Third Judicial district. Chris
tan gave 2l00 majority to Morrow
due to disaffection among Democrats.
No such disaffection is apparent this
year towards Wilson or Judge Bush,
but it must not be overlooked that the
figures show that Judge Bush's elec'
ton cannot be taken for granted.
