tries to take off the wing. According to
one expert, a good way to overcome
this is to remember that the ball and
socket joint of the wing is usually
farther toward the center of the bird
than he thinks. Place the knife about
an inch above where the wing joins
the body and cut toward the center at
an angle of about As degrees.
With the wing off, there is a long

found on the mature fruit. Vegetables
are protected by the same sort of
spray, so it is equally important that
vegetables be washed with great care
before they are cooked. Lettuce and
other vegetables served raw, should
be washed with equal thoroughness.
"The custom of spraying growing
fruits and vegetables with poisonous
chemical sprays to protect them
against insect pests, has become very
general. A great deal of the spray is
washed off by the summer rains, but
there is always possibility of a trace
of it being left as it does not dissolve
readily. Fruits and vegetables go thru
great deal of handling before they
finally reach the markets and a
thorough washing will get rid of dirt
and soil as we'll as of the chemicals
used to bring about perfection in the
crops when harvested.
Through special services main
tanned by the State Department of
Health in cooperation with the inspec-
tion service of the University of
Maryland, and the farmers and orchar-
dists, great care is taken to protect
Maryland fruit against damage from
the chemicals used in the sprays, and
to prevent fruit holding traces of SUCH
poisons from reaching State markets.
Samples of Maryland grown fruit
are collected from representative or
chards by the inspection service be-
fore the crop is harvested, and are
brought to the chemical laboratories 81
the State Department of Health to be
tested for traces of left-over-spray
containing arsenic or other poisonous
substances. If excess spray residne
is found the growers or shippers are
notified that it must be removed be-
fore the fruit is put on the market.
The growers are very cooperative and
work readily with us.
"Other States are giving similar SER
vice to the growers and consumers in
other parts of the country, but in
spite of the care that is taken, we
hear every now and then Of cases of
poisoning that have occurred from the
use of carelessly handled and unwash-
ed fruits and vegetables.
Sometimes the best-looking and
most attractive vegetables and fruits
are those that have been most heavily
sprayed. You can't trust to appear
ances. 1t is always safest to wash both
fruits and vegetables before using"

Roast Turkey And Savory Stuffing

Roast Turkey And SavOry Stuffing
The wise cook distinguishes herself

plus cranbewies) well, and seasoning
them as lastly as she knows how.
1t may not be possible to buy the
best turkey on the market, but know
ing the earmarks of turkey quality
will help in getting the most for what
ever there is to spend. Some of these
earmarks are a well-rOunded body, a
well-feshed breast, a good coating of
fat under the skin, few blemishes, and
a few pinfeathers. If the turkey is 10

usually sold in retail markets, picked
but not drawn, within cad and feet still

Although there are stuffings and
stuffings, by far the most common are
those with a bread-crum base. Good
proportions for such a stuffing are one
pint or more of mixed celery, parsley,
onion, and any other seasoning de-

crumbs The best crumbs for "dry"
type of stuffing are made from bread

Saute the seasoning in the fat, then
add the crumbs. Let all get piping

with salt and fill the body cavity and
the loose skin around the neck with
this stuffing. Putting the stuffing in

With pan drippings, melted butter,

Dorothy Dix Says

Charles Schwab once said that he
drew million -dollar-a-year salary
not for what he knew about finance
or steelmaking. but for what he
knew about handling men. Shoe!
Lots Of women can turn that trick,
and they get better paid for doing
it. Whenever you see q woman
diked out like Solomon in all his
glory, with ropes of matched pearls,
limousines and palaces. yachts and
things, you are beholding a womon
who knows how to manage men.
When you see a woman whose
husband eats out of her hand and
who stays in love with her after
she gets old and fat, you are looking
at a woman who knows how to
handle men. Now, considering how
rich are the rewards Of those skilled
in the fine art of managing men, it
is strange that women so seldom
think it is worth while acquiring it.
In the first place, 1t will 60 farther
than beauty or brains or glamour or
what-not in helping them to secure
husbands. In the second place, it
will enable them to hold their hus-
bands after they catch them. And,
in the third place, it will make their
marriages happy and serene and
peaceful instead Of being a 40 years
domestic warfare.
The generality of women, however,
ignore these obvious facts. They
marvel over why some homely girl
marries the catch of the season,
while the good lockers were left
waiting at the church, so to speak.
They profess not to be able to under

devoted to her, while theirs are
flirting with every pretty flapper
Apparently 1t does not occur to them
that whether q woman succeeds or
fails with men depends altogether
on whether or not she knows how
to manage them.
Some women instinctively know how
to please man. Others acquire the
art of studying man. But in either
case they take the trouble to gum
shoe around a mans angularities of
character and disposition instead of
humping into them. They learn how
to keep off of his pet prejudices and
to avoid the controversial subject
upon which they disagree. They
know that it isn't what you say to a
man, but the way you say it that
makes him take 1t fighting mad, or
mild as sucking dove. And so they
put things in the right way to him.
They know that even the biggest
and strongest man wants to be
babied and to cry on woman's
shoulder now and then, and have her
kiss the hurt the world has dealt
him and make it well. They know
that men like for the women they
give things to to make great shout
ing over the gift to show apprecia-
ton of their generosity. And, above
all, they know that every man wants
his wife to admire him, and that as
long as she will beat on the
cymbals and tell him how great and
wonderful he is that she can lead
him where she will.

Measurement
Standards
Of Child
Any nyCo1mparisons
With Others His
Age Not Fair
BY ANGELO PATRI.

One should make sure that the
standard used in measuring a child
is the right one for him. Right In
itself. Right for the child con-
cerned
A mother was warned that her
2-year-old child was not talking as
we'll as he ought. He needs to be
helped little" said the specialist.
HE is stammering good bit; you
must be careful to give him the
feeling of ease, Of security, so that
he has no fear. Fear, however
slight, checks little child's speech.
1t is usual for children beginning to
talk to stammer. They have more
ideas to express than they have
speech power to express them. Be
very gentle about it and give him
all the time in the world" u
But he shouldn't stutter," the
mother said. why should he stut-
ter? My sisters child is Just about
his age and he never shutters. It's
just bad habit and have to make
him stop it. I don't want his cousin
to be laughing at him."
Two wrong standards. No two
children are alike. No two grow at
the same rate or in the same way.
The fact that one does not stammer
and that the other does is no reason
for blaming the unfortunate one.
Some do, some don't, and the best
way to help child over this stam-
mering time is to give him time
plenty of it; listen as long and as
patiently as necessary and never let
him feel that you are pressing him.
Never mind what any other child his
age is doing. This one is different.
Study his particular need and help
him.
The next mistaken standard is the
one that insists upon superiority over
another child at any price. His
cousin will laugh at him." That is
pernicious. If his cousin does such
an unholy thing, it is so much the
worse for the cousin. His character
Is lamed. not that of the stammering
child, the stammerer will talk all
right when he completes his growth,
but the character of the one who
was taught to think himself superior,
when he was only lucky, is going to
bear the marks of bad training,
In the meantime, If the stammerine
child Is made to feel inferior to his
fluent-speaking relative, his speech
will suffer; his whole being is
checked and burdened by unthink-
ing criticism and ill-judged punish
ment. Encourage the stammering
one; smile at him encouragingly:
sometimes tell his story for him
until he gets a hold on 1t: always
let him know he has your entire
sympathy and understanding.
And would be careful about
measuring child's progress against
that OF any group of children in the
public eye. They are not good stand
ards for ordinary children. Their
lives are not the lives Of the ordi-
nary child because their experiences
are extraordinary. Shirley Temple,
the Dionne children, are unique.
They cannot be the standards Of

set apart. Quints are rarer still.

Outlying Sections
Suffer the Worst
In Recent Years
BY BETSY CASWELL,
Woman's Editor.

There Is q growing interest. I am
glad to see, in the citizens Of the
outlying sections Of Washington to-
ward doing something about" Hal
loween. This little ball that has
started rolling will, hope, increase
enormously in size as it goes and
eventually do away with the van
dalism and rowdy behavior that has
made such a sorry occasion out of
the traditional All Hallows Eve.
In this paper recently there was
splendid article on just this very
subject. 1t was pointed out that
the large mass" celebration planned
by the city, with just this diversion
of overflowing spirits into safer
channels in mind, had helped a
great deal, but not entirely. Although
it had taken large number of mis-
chievous youngsters off the main
streets and set them to work cele-
brating Halloween in a supervised
manner, there were many incidences
of increased rowdyism reported in
the outlying or suburban sections.
The police have an overwhelming
Job on the night of Halloween keep
ing law and order. They cannot be
expected to be everywhere at once.
Therefore 1t is really up to the
adult citizens themselves to exercise

ment on taxpayers rights.
have always advocated the com
munity" party as a solution for
Halloween festivities. If more
mothers and fathers would get to-
gether and stage celebration under
their guidance and control there
would be far less annoyance and
trouble for every one concerned.
And the children, for the most part,
would welcome such planned diver
sion.
The trouble is, of course, that all
TOO many parents either shirk this
responsibility entirely or else de-
plorably encourage their youngsters
TO make nuisances Of themselves in
the neighborhood. 1t is high time
that such individuals looked further
than their noses and realized that
such lack Of training in the laws of
meum and teum may we'll breed
serious consequences in their chill
dren'S characters.
I am delighted, therefore, to note
an ever-increasing number of adult
and parental get-togethers in the
various sections of town. These
clear-thinking and sober-minded
citizens deserve big hand. If more
will follow their example Halloween
will lose a characteristic that is far
more destructive and fear-inspiring
than any of its traditional spooks
and witches. Lawlessness can never
be camouflaged by calling it fun"

an "matronly figure" or the now
taboo expression stylish stout"
Because, you see, the grand duchess
has selected and is sponsoring a COL
lection of clothes for the mature
woman. And what clothes they are!
1t all started when she decided
thCt older women lose a great deal
CT charm when they wear clothes
dcslgned for their younger-and
often less we'll sisters.
In her opinion, poise. distinction,
worldly experience and personality
count for great deal and should
be taken into consideration when a
wardrobe is selected.
Ideal Clothes
Are Chosen.
From there it was just a step to
visiting designers and manufacturers
in order to select corsets, dresses,
hats and coats that are particularly
adaptable for the older woman. The
group she has chosen as typical is
conservative. stylish and in perfect
taste. Apparently. the right idea for
the older woman is not to worry so
much about this hour-glass figure
epidemic. Visualizing the entire ap-
pearance is the essential part of
dressing correctly.
The grand duchess first chose
foundation garments and girdles.
and its obvious that they were
picked with care and thought, for
they mold the figure without giving
1t a stiff, corseted look. There are
tour models in all; two girdles and
two foundations, some boned and
some minus the pesky things. The
glrdles are built high in front to
minimize the waist and the founda-
tlons are cleverly designed to give
comfortable control. The finest i'm
ported brocades and webbing as
well as panels of rayon satin have
gone into these garments, some of
which run up to size 46.
Next step in building a wardrobe
Tor the older woman came in select
ing the dresses-and they're won-
de.ful. Slim lines, a marvellous lack
of ornamentation in a season that's
overrun with it and a wonderful
sense Of the fitness of things makes
both the day and evening clothes
JOY. Bolcros or simulated ones are
often used. and so are flattering
capcs. Fullness through the bust,
SO necessary to all women, is
achieved without adding heaviness;
corselet effects are placed just right
to avoid happiness, and the neck
lines, often in v shape, are fatter-
ing to the more mature figure.
A perfect dress has about eight
graduated tiers of the fabric that
