was ample floor space for crap games
and the boys found plenty of room
for blackjack Sergt. Morse was
the best mess sergeant who ever
talked the commissary out of a
ration of bifsteak. The only COM
plant heard was that there were
no bistros nearby.
I solved that difficulty, however,
by making friends with M. Poiret,
who ran a tailor shop across the
way. After a few minor transac-
tions, learned that M. Poiret had
liking for cointreau. I didn't
particularly care for cointreau, but
the tailor shop was convenient and
even the nearest place to get a
vinegar blink, vernacular for white
wine, was blocks and blocks away.
So cultivated Mr.. Poiret.
Finally it became habit when
arrived after completing my duties
to bed down my motorcycle and
across the street to the tailor shop
to exchange pleasantries and sip
soothing liqueur with the hos
pitable Frenchman.
Sergt. Barker was the epicure OF
the outfit. On our first pay day he
and I found small restaurant on
the Rue de Richelieu famous for
food. We started off with a soup,
ordered the inevitable bifsteak and
pomme de terres as the piece de
resistance and then polished of a
plate Of grapes and cheese. A wine
was indicated but as neither Of us
was a connoissuer we had to take
pot luck and by the rarest good
fortune we came up with something
that tasted like nectar.
After the finger bowl we strolled
up the street and by the time we
reached the Boulevard des Itali-
ennes the sergeant was hungry
again. We sauntered into the
nearest restaurant and consumed
another complete meal. It was
there that the sergeant and I saw.

Chinese Cleaning Up
After Capturing Bhamo

SOUTHEAST ASIA COMMAND
HEADQUARTERS, Handy, Ceylon,
Dec. 16.-The crushing of the last
organized resistance in the North
Burma town of Bhamo was ex-
pected today to release another pow
erful Chinese force for the push
south toward the old Burma road.
Only few snipers remained from
a Japanese suicide force, originally
estimated at 1900 men, which had
held out for weeks in the by-passed
town, 30 miles south of Myitkyina.
Bhamo fell yesterday to the Chi
nese 38th Division, which laid siege
to the enemy's fortress of teakwood
logs, described by an American
liaison officer as "the best defense

Seven teen-age students from
Washington schools agreed yeSter-
day there is too much talk about
Juvenile delinquency and not enough
done about it,
Asked to air their views on the
subject at an open meeting of the
corrections division of the Council
of Social Agencies, six boys and a
girl called for remedies ranging
from more clubs and athlete facil-
tiles to emphasis on religion as a
"StabiliZer in the life of an adoles-
cent"
There is really no such thing as
juvenile delinquent" asserted
James Hatton, Is, chairman of the
Board of Governors of the Junior
Police Corps. Those are just two
oVerstreSsed words used to refer to
the boy or girl who gets into
trouble"
Others Speak.
Other speakers included Joseph
Connor, 16, of St. Johns College;
Michael Corrado, IT, president of
the Student Council of Eastern High
School; Roy Early, IT, of Central
High School; Edgar Beckley, II, of
Armstrong High School; Edmund

Western High School Student
Council, and Geraldine WEIGH, IA
of Mount Vernon High School.
Targets Of various speakers in
cluded:
Parents who spend so much time
in search of the almighty dollar"
they fail to spend time with their
children.
Movies and radio serials which
depict such thrilling adventures by
the villain that the moral at the
end carries little weight.
Drinking among teen-age stu
dents, blamed by one youth on
easy money"
Failure to substitute wholesome

His Curtain Call

Drowned on all sides and well heated
through. In our house the legs are
served usually with tomato sauce
to which bit of horseradish has
been added.
And then, of course, there is that
truly wonderful cookie warmer
turkey soup. This is the birds posi-
lively last appearance, so much
should be made of it.
Break the turkey carcass up in
pieces and put them in a deep ket-
tie, together with every scrap of the
turkey meat you have left, bits OF
skin, stufing and SO on. Add an
onion or two stuck with three or four
cloves, an herb bunch, a couple Of
sliced carrots, stalk or two Of
celery with leaves attached, a few
sprigs Of parsley and cover with cold
water. Bring to boil and then
simmer slowly for about three hours,
until the broth is rich and strong.
Season to taste and strain carefully.
Let cool and remove any surplus fat.
When ready to use the soup return
it to the fire and heat it through,
adding any embellishments you may
desire-such as a handful Of rice
or barley, some sliced okra pods,
canned corn, noodles or what have
you. Cook any Of these In the clear
broth until soft and then serve in
big plates. This Is a soup that
makes a main dish-none of your
bouillon cup affairs
BY the way-save that turkey fat
to use in many Of the ways you
have been utilizing chicken fat. It's
excellent.
Evening star., 1944-12-28

If you take the trouble to check,
you will find that most men like
their holiday turkey best on its Sec
ond appearance. There Is something
about the flavor and texture of cold
turkey that has stood for day or
so absorbing the spiciness of the
stuffing and firming the meat that
puts it way out in front of the hot,
newly roasted bird. And then-the
supplementary dishes! That's where
turkey really comes into its own.
When was youngster, the queen
that ruled in our farm kitchen had a
favorite concoction that she called
turkey olio." She made 1t with
leftover chicken, too, at other times,
but it attained its true stature when
turkey was the main ingredient.
The cold turkey meat was cut in
neat, small pieces--the dark meat
was especially good for this-and
heated through with the leftover
gravy. When there wasn't enough
gravy, Mamie made up a new batch
with brown sauce that she kept
tucked in the refrigerator at all
times for emergencies. While the
turkey was heating, she Drowned a
little minced onion In butter (bacon
fat Is even better) and then sauted
Evening star., 1944-12-28

Mushrooms are another solution to
the meatless meal. To round out
fuller list we suggest the quick
frozen fruits and vegetables, and
greater use Of the dried lentils, peas,
beans, etc. X x
Here and There The United
States Department of Agriculture
estimates that In nearly 25,OOO, 900
households during the past year
home Gamers were busy, and their
efforts resulted in an estimated
3, 400, ,000, 900 quarts of canned food
the total supply seemingly about
equally divided between fruits and
vegetables. 1t is reported that
supplies Of margarine and of peanut
butter are ample, which is good news
as regular" butter leaps to "a points
a pound. A little warmth goes
a long way in speeding up house
hold chores. Egg whites whip better
at room temperature, cake ingredi-
ents blend better If they are not too
cold. Warm water penetrates clothes
being sprinkled more quickly than
does cold. Tepid water is best for
house plants. And so 1t goes.

Lentil
Dish

That super chef and restaurateur,
George MARKHAM, who has recently
brought forth a splendid book on
food entitled Dinner at Omar Khay-
yam's," published by the Viking
Press. is responsible for one of the
best lentil dishes ever encountered.
The humble lentil is too little used
In this country. 1t is a wonderful
change from the more commonly
seen kidney bean or dried pea.
George takes cups of lentils and
soaks them in cold water overnight
In the morning he pourS off the
water and puts the lentils in cups
of fresh water. Then he brings
them to a boil
In the meantime. he slices an
onion or 2 fine and fries it in y cup
of olive oil. peanut oil is good for
this, too When the lentils start
to boil. he adds the onion with the
oil and IA ablespoons chopped pars-
ley to them with salt and pepper to
taste. Then the lentils are cooked
slowly until they are tender.
These lentils are as good cold as
they are hot, because of the oil
added to their cooking and may be
served as an unusual and delicious
Sunday night supper salad.
