None of the old familiar ingredi- ents for Thar giving menus will be used in thcee two recipes-the one for a new salad, the other for dessert-which I suggest as a pleas- ant change for tea or supper on Thanksgiving Day. But see if they do not sound ideally suited to the purpose. If guests are present we do not want to serve them with left-overs from the dinner table, nor have our supper menu so conn monplace that 1t will let them down after the great feast.
 Pot POurri Salad
 1 cup white Malaga grapes,
 skinned and seeded
 1 cup celery cut in juliene (about
 size of matchsticks)
 # cup each of green and red pep
 per in juliene, same size.
 Dressing
 l orange (juice and pulp
 2 tablespoons chopped green
 pepper
 1 tablespoon chopped stuffed
 olives
 h cup French dressing made with
 lemon juice
 Have all salad ingredients very cold; pile the celery and pepper sticks together in a mound in the center of the salad dish, with the grapes arranged around them, and celery hearts and the tiny leaves arranged around the grapes. Dress with the Pot Pourri dressing. The quantities given will serve six.
 Prune Pockets Allow three large prrnes for each serving. Wash and let them soak over night in enough cooking sherry to barely cover. In the morning simmer the prunes very slowly in the sherry until the liquor is almost absorbed. Remove the pits, fill cavities with chopped Eng fish walnuts and finely cut marsh mallows, and as you pull each prune together over the stuffing insert a half rr1aracilino cherry so

are eating in quantities far out- weighing what the little folks should have. And equally so to permit them to overeat and suffer for 1t. The light luncheon at II will not lessen their thorough en- joyment of the Thanksgiving meal, but 1t will prevent gorging. Little stomachs should not be SO empty that there is an impulse to over- fill them with heavy, rich Goods, and no sensible modern parent allows 1t.
 Another point in this connection is that of protecting them from the temptation of too much candy. In many homes on Thanksgiving a box of candy stands open - handy for little hands to reach into 1t whenever they pass by--and no one knows how much is consumed in the days time. Certainly we can avoid this by giving the children the amount 1t is good for them to have, then place the box out of sight and out of reach.
 Children may eat @ reasonable amount of everything served at the Thanksgiving table. There is no need to deny them anything, pro- vided they do not eat too heartily of one particular food. One thing you might do this year, if you'd like to add a surprise touch to the

Cranberries Delicious In New Dessert

If you have not used cranberries other than as sauce for the turkey, then you've overlooked the possibilities of creating a num- Der of interesting desserts. These crimson berries, bursting with lus- cious juice, go well in any number of things - pies, tarts, pastries, cakes, mullins, buildings, ices. And now, here's brand new cranberry dessert-tart, ruby red cranberry sauce topped with golden, feather light souffle. Doesn't that sound delicious? It's not only good to eat but it's mighty decorative to serve. Better make it so that it still will be a bit warm when you spoon 1t out-souffles are more delicate that way.
 Cranberry SOuffle
 K cup butter
 6 tbsp. flour
 1A cups irradiated evaporated
 milk
 6 tbsp. suger
 4 large, or 5 small eggs
 9 tbsp. lemon juice
 4 tsp. cream of tartar
 3-8 tsp, salt
 2 cups cranberries
 cup sugar
 Make white sauce of the butter, flour and milk. Add sugar and cook until thickened. Cool and add well beaten egg yolks and lemon juice. Beat egg whites until light and fluffy. Add cream of tartar and salt and continue beating until stiff, but not dry. Fold into yolk mixture. Mix Cranberries, vut in halves, with the sugar. Turn into buttered bak- ing dish and set in a slow oven (31O degrees F.) for 10 minutes, then pour souffle mixture over ber- ries. Continue baking in a slow oven (310 degrees F) for 45 mira- utes. Yield: servings.
 If you have some cranberry sauce on hand, or want to use the canned variety, place about cup and a half of the sauce in the bottom of the baking dish and pour the souffle mixture over it. Either method makes an equally delightful Cran- berry Souffle.

Sweet Potato SOuffle
By CHLOE JAMESON

By CHLOE JAMESON
 Candied sweets you have served several times since harvest time, and though this may represent the hosts favorite sweet potato recipe, you'll find that he will be very pleasantly surprised with a sweet potato souffle instead of mashed white potatoes for Thanksgiving dinner. They would go especially well with Brussel sprouts for the green vegetable; also with creamed silver onions. The recipe is very simple:
 Sweet Potato S0uffle
 6 medium-sized sweet potatoes
 Salt and pepper to taste
 3 tablespoons butter
 Cream to moisten
 1 teaspoon baking powder
 Cook the potatoes in their skins peel and put through a ricer. Add the baking powder, butter and sea- sonings, mix well and add cream enough to make the mixture quite moist. Beat well, put in a buttered baking dish, dot with a little more DuIGcI dAlu buhC AA Q AuASN S'SAA until the potatoes puff up and brown slightly. Serve in the bak- ing dish-if it is nice looking one and you might garnish with a fluffy sprig of parsley stuck Into the center of the souffle just as it is sent to the table.
 Sweet potato croquettes are also very nice for Thanksgiving dinner. To two cups of hot mashed or riced potatoes add the yolk of an egg, two tablespoons butter, salt, pepper and a teaspoon of baking powder. Beat well and let cool; shape into balls about the size of a walnut, dip them in beaten egg then roll in very fine crumbs and fry in deep hot fat. Drain and Snrva varv h0t

Leftover Turkey No Problem

In some households the Thanks. giving turkey, like the proverbial brook, goes on and on, and the family gets mighty fed tip with 1t before the bones finally reach the soup kettle. Tn others, there's hard- ly enough of the festive bird left to make a second appearance on the table. Whether leftover turkey is an acute or a mild problem in your kitchen, you'll welcome this recipe for Creamed Turkey in Sweet Poe tato Nests, for it's an attractive way of using up the scraps. If you haven't two cups of turkey titbits, put in some of the stuffing-it's not only filling but will add savory flavor.
 Creamed Turkey cups diced turkey 2 tbsp. butter 4 tbsp. flour
 11a cups irradiated evaporated milk
 1,i cups turkey broth, or water
 Salt and pepper
 Gut turkey into 1-3 inch dice. Pre- pare a white sauce of the butter, flour, milk, turkey broth, salt and pepper. Add turkey and heat thor oughly over boiling water. Yield: 6 servings.

Bring to brisk boil; continue boiling for three minutes, Allow to cool. Combine prepared mince meat and cooked, sweetened cranberries. Place in nine-inch pie plate lined with pastry.

 Cranberry Pineapple Frappe
 Mash with Q fork two cups of cranberry jelly (either homemade or canned); press through a sieve. Boil together for three or four minutes one-third cup of sugar and one cup of water. Cool and add to the cranberries. Add also one cup pineapple syrup from 8 can of pineapple Cor you may use pineapple juice); freeze to the consistency of water ice or 8 stiff mush Serve with the turkey.

Installation of police radio equip
ment will begin within the next
week or two, following a decision by
police and city officials to award the
contract for the radio equipment To
the Gamewell Co. The apparatus to
be installed will be Of Westinghouse
manufacture.
The Westinghouse equipment, dis
tributed by the Gamewell Co., was
chosen after several leading makes
