It's the Thought

Luxurious gifts, the things our
friends give us that we would never
buy for ourselves. have been a de-
light to our souls. The time will
come when we will enjoy all these
things again, but right now the
most acceptable gift is something
we need. The small things that we
use every day. that make the job of
living and doing a little easier, sud-
denly become treasures. The small
household accessories, which we
haven't time to shop for, make, or
which cannot be found in the stores
are this years prizes. Endeavor to
find out what your friends, and fam
lily, need each day. Try to fill these
gaps for them by giving Of your own
time and effort. Make it as gift-like
as possible by personalizing it down
to the last detail, but be sure it is
not too frilly to be used. We all
need too much, and are too pushed
for time, these days to waste minutes
on noneSsentialS.
For instance, If one of your friends
who Is busy at war job has little
time for her own home, you will
find she will be lyrical If you do for
her one Of the small refurbishing de-
tails she hasn't time to accomplish
herself. If you have heard her be-

TO TREASURE TREASURES
For any girl who likes every
thing in its place, a set of three
lingerie cases is the solution to the
gift problem one for her

for hosiery, the largest for lingerie

putting things away. A set we like Is
of white rayon crepe with spatter-
ing of rosebuds all over, lined with
pretty rose rayon satin. If you
want to play super Santa you might
put pretty sample in each, tie all
with a ribbon and War stamp cor

an equally pretty set in satin-striped
crepe and another in novelty rayon

More Turkey Talk

In addition to the more or less
modern and approved directions fol
roasting turkey given yesterday, we
thought you'd be interested in two
other methods of prepare tion-one
quite fancy, but eXcellcnt-and the
other the old-fashioned way that
made grandma's roast turkey SO
delicious in the old days.
TURKEY BAKED IN BLANKET.
Stuff and truss turkey in the
usual way for roasting. Brush over
outside with melted butter and
wrap In a blanket, made as follows:
For a 12-pound turkey, take 4
cups of -four and enough cold water
to work into a paste that may be
rolled like pie crust. Roll cut en- a
Toured board to quarter-inch thick
ness, taking great care not to break
the surface This should be large
enough to inclose the whole turkey.
but If difficult to handle may be done
in two sections. Place one section
under the turkey, bringing 1t up to
wrap over the wings. Place the ether
on top, tucking it in carefully around
the legs, stick the two sections to-
gether by moisting with cold water
and pinching the edges.
Place the turkey in the open
roaster on rack. Put one cup of
water in the pan and bake for 80
minutes at 480 degrees. Then re-
duce heat and bake the usual re-
Quired time for the size at $50 de-
grees.
The blanket becomes crisp and
seals in all juices and moisture. No
basting is necessary. Remove turkey
from oven when baked. Tap the
blanket shell to break it and lift off
return turkey to oven for 5 min
utes to brown. Flavor, moisture and
texture are far better than when
bird is cooked by any other method.
Wild turkeys in the Southwest are
covered with white clay on top of
the feathers and cooked in fire
pit under Goals until tender-the
white clay is then broken of, taking
all feathers and skin, exposing the
Juicy meat.
OLD-FASHIONED ROAST
TURKEY.
Ask your dealer to draw the bird.
remove the feet, leg tendons and
cut off the neck, leaving the skin
intact. We assume, Of course, that
the turkey has been plucked. Save
the gizzard, liver and heart for the
stuffings or the gravy.
SINCE the turkey removing any
pin feathers with tweezers. Scrub
the bird thoroughly inside and out
with warm water and little bak-
ing soda. Dry, both inside and out,
carefully. Salt the fowl inside.
Stuff both body and neck cavity
with dressing, and truss. Sew up
the body cavity and tie the legs to
the tailpiece, close to the body. Pull
the neck skin to the back of the
bird and skeWer into place. Turn
the tips of the wings back under
the body.
Just before putting the turkey in
the oven rub the skin surfaces we'll
with lemon juice and olive oil-or
butter If you prefer. The oil gives
a crisper crust, in my opinion. Place
the bird breast down on the rack
In the roasting pan, bracing it on
either side with small ramekins or
custard cups to hold it steady. This
method keeps the breast meat de-
liciously moist and tender. Sprinkle
turkey lightly all over with flour.
