Naugatuck, Nov. % Residents in general enjoyed one of the finest Thanksgiving days ever, yesterday, and were in Q happy frame of mind today as business was resumed after the short holiday. A lot of former residents were seen in the borough Wednesday evening as they called on friends. Some of them came here pilrposely for the 46th annual con- cert and ball of the Naugatuck Hose, Hook and Ladder company, in Tano's hall. The hall was crowded with dancers. Among those on hand were firemen from other communi- ties throughout the valley.
 Services in local churches yester day morning attracted many people, as it was 8 day of thanksgiving as well as rejoicing. Heavy rain throughout the greater part of the day and especially in the evening, kept most people indoors. The the- aters reported small crowds because of the weather.
 Auto traffic was heavy through the borough last night as visitors de- parted. Numerous cars came through here from the north and south. In spite of the slippery condition of the pavements, no accidents were re- ported.
 A special musical program fea- tured the service yesterday morning in the Salem Lutheran church Rev. William R. Frendberg, conducted the service.

Changes From Turkey For Meals After The Holidays
By EDITH M. SHAPCOTT--- = : : Former Home Making Center - New Yorl

BreadcrumbS
 Use firm, large oysters. Wash and drain them, then dry between towels. Beat the eggs lightly, add the milk, sugar, salt and pepper. The sugar has two reasons for be- ing there; first, because it provides well-rounded seasoning and gives 8 mellow flavor to the oysters which have a somewhat bland taste if not carefully seasoned; and second, be- cause it makes the bread oyster fry with 8 crisper crust. Dip the oysters separately into the egg-milk mixture and roll in bread crumbs. Fry in deep hot fat, or saute in butter for five minutes or until golden brown. Serve garnished with chopped par sley and a slice of lemon.
 Fried soft shell crabs are also 8 delicacy, especially for supper ser- vice. Wash the crabs very thorough ly, removing all the sand, the feath- cry substances under the side points, the sand bag under the shell be- tween the eyes and the small, loose shell running to 8 point about the middle of the under-shell. Dry care- fully with towels. Now let the crabs soak for about one-half hour in two cups of milk to which you have added seasonings of salt, pepper, cayenne and teaspoon of sugar. Rub the crabs thoroughly with the milk, then roll in flour, shaking of the superfluous four. Fry in drip pings or shortening until a golden brown and be sure that there is plenty of fat so that the crabs will not stick to the bottom of the frying pan. Drain on brown paper; serve garnished with minced par Sley.

Business Resumed To-day After Happy
Mayor Endorses. Sales Campaign

Asserting that the Christmas seal campaign, opening Thanks giving day, offers a simple means for all to share i'm the fight against tuberculosis, Mayer Frank Hayes today gave his en- dorsement to the current seal sale:
 ''It does not require a long memory for many people to re- call when the mere statement that an individual had tubercu- losis meant 2 hopeless cOndi- tiOn," said Mayor Hayes.
 To-day, thanks to the great advancement in medical science and to the civic -mindcdness of many people, this menace to humanity is being shackled.
 ''The Waterbury Anti -Tuber- culosis league, working in cO- operation with the board of health, has for years carried on g splendid fight against tuber- culosis in Waterbury. It is large ly dependent on the sale of Christmas seals to carry on this work. I urge the whole hearted support of the community in this worthy campaign"

of no nicer meat dish than oysters, and they lend themselves to great variety in preparation. Delicious things may be done with oysters stewed, escalloped or fried; oysters curried, minced, coddled, baked with cheese, roastedfn oysters in croquet- tes and in many other ways not so well known.
 But there is one lesson I find that many cooks need to learn about the simplest of all these re- cipes I have suggested: Not every one knows how to fry oysters so that they are crisp and tender, yet firm, and perfectly seasoned. Here are few suggestions which will give you an excellent dish for SUD- per service:

 MT. Gilbert reiterated the bill would raise his concerns annual payment to the Territory from s119,00o, the amount paid this year, to $200,000, a figure it would be unable to stand after several years of losses up to 1884.
 Alaska Needs Capital
 The cause of the depression is the unemployment of capital, he said, and Alaska needs to encourage rather than discourage it. Any ad- ditional burden at this time would discourage, he argued. He point ed out that the mining industry las been encouraged by the price ,f gold. Salmon prices, he explain d, have not risen in proportion md an extra tax now would cer- dinly discourage the fishing in- lustry. If taxes are raised so that raps could not operate it would lestroy the means of living some 500 natives at Unga alone have LOW.
 Handicap, He Says
 Fred Soberg, appearing in behalf of the fishermen, contended the seiners are under a handicap be- cause the traps are located and owned by large concerns in the more favored places. He said he felt it was not fair for one kind of fishing to have an advantage over another, and that all the wat CTS should be free so that all could operate on a basis of equality.
 Late in the afternoon the House moved the bill on to third reading md began discussion of the Nor Idle eight-hour day measure.

Lack of Burial Ground Elm. phasized by Superin-
 tendent in Report

Construction of mausoleum on a unit basis at the Alaska Pioneers Home, Sitka, so that it can be in- creased as necessity arises is re- commended to the Legislature in the biennial report of Eiler Hansen, Superintnedent of the institution. The greater Initial cost of mauso- leum crypts will be more than off, set by the cost of clearing and pre- pairing ground and it's perpetual lpkeep, the Superintendent states in his report.
 There are now three separate pioneer burial plots to maintain" the report says. "On the plot now in use $600 was spent in addition maintenance in grading and filing. In three or four years the burial ground now available will oe used up and if nothing is done ,bout it, it will be necessary to find new ground which will have to be cleared and prepared at con- siderable expense. It is doubtful if my more suitable burial ground can be found in Sitka Even if it could, it is not justifiable to con- tinue to appropriate the best sites surrounding the town for ceme- tery purposes
 Would Legalize Practice
 The Superintendent asks that she Legislature pass an act pro viding that all miscellaneous re- ,eipts of the Pioneers Home be :redited to the appropriation for the bi'ennium in which they occur. thus legalizing practice hat has been carried on in the past.
 Construction of the new. modern concrete building at a cost of ap- proximately quarter of a million dollars during the last biennium f the most important undertaking in the history of the institution since it's creation in 1913, the Superin- tendent points out in his report.
 The building itself is witness to the fact that the Territorial Build ing Commission has ably and con- 7cientiously discharged it's obliga- tion,' the Superintendent states. ..0-t.o ,,or, D;onaarcf uo-,,a at C;t- ka is a magnificent tribute of a grateful people to the men who bore the brunt of developing a will derness. It is monument to pio- neer life of surpassing beauty and infinite usefulness"

 Karl Theile, former Secretary oi Alaska and now canner at Wran- gell, appeared in bcha-f O. the Northwestern Gamers Association and declared the 49 members of that organization wanted a de- crease in taxes rather than an in- crease as proposed under the Hof- man bill.
