hardly fitting symbolism for the
future wife of some working
man.
IT SHOULD be remembered
that the young child is constantly
learning about social relation
ships and attitudes from the sto-
ries he hears. For instance, Lit
tie Black SambO is on most read
ing lists and is considered a clas-
sic, yet the. little Negro boy is
characterized as vain and cow
ardly.
With National Book Week
stimulating bOok-consciousness
and sales, thoughtful parents
should learn what to look for
and what to avoid in buying
their young children's books or
borrowing them from the Ii
brary.
Until a child is six or seven
and has a firm foothold in real
ity, his stories should be reals
tic, about the things with which
he is familiar. This means sto-
ries of animals as they really
are, different means of transpor-
tation, the places in his environ
ment such as the stores, zoo and
SO on. Fairy tales are ruled out
in the pre-school years as well
as fantasy about animals that
talk like humans, engines and
airplanes with personalities and
the ability to think. Aside from
the non-factual objection to sto-
ries of personalized machines,
from a trade unionist's point of
view, his Child should never be
taught anything that would con
tradict the fact the engine would
be idle without man to run it
and an airplane could not fly

In many of our working class
homes, there has been some spe-
cial scrimping on the food budget
these days.
And all because Thanksgiving
is coming and that's one Holt
day that doesn't seem to be
quite the same unless there's
turkey on hand.
Well, more power to YOU If you
can afford it at an average Sd
cents a pound or So for a Is
pound turkey. But in our house
hold a roasting chicken will have
to fill the bill of fare-at about
seven cents less per pound. And
there's no reason why the chick
en- can't be fixed to make the
household forget about turkey.
In any case, a sweet potato
stuffing for your fowl is a good
bet. Why? Because it's an mex
pensive stuffing, giving the bird
a fine flavor, and substituting
for the sweet potatoes you might
need as an added side dish.
A suggested side dish might
be mashed potatoes and ruta-
baga, to add festive color note
to your Thanksgiving table. An
added attraction might be a
creamed spinach side dish made
by the formula suggested be-
low.
If you can find cranberries in
the store, be sure to include them
on your menu. The canned cram
berries are less expensive, less
work and will give you the same
practical results as the fresh ber-
ries.

Thanksgiving cookery
and the slim budget

If you feel you can afford II.
you might round out the main
body of the meal with an inter-
esting fruit salad, with a honey
dressing.
AS for desserts, you're on your
own. Remember the traditional
mincemeat and pumpkin pie will
add to the cost. Your family will
probably be happy to settle for
some ice cream. Incidentally,
many of the ice cream companies
offer special holiday molds that
tend to add to the gayety of the
occasion.
Now for some tips on the pre-.
parationl of these dishes.
The sweet potato stuffing:
To two cups of cooked mashed
sweet potatoe add one egg, one
stalk diced celery, two table
spoons melted margarine.
The white potatoes and ruta-
'baga: Mash together half-and-
half with milk and seasoning as
you do potatoes.
The creamed spinach: Make
thin white sauce, add half diced
onion and one bouillion cube ard
let cook while chopping cooked
spinach. Then add the spinach to
the white sauce and re-heat be-
fore serving.
The fruit salad: Sections of
grapefruit, orange, and wedges of
apples, laid alternately on a bed
of shredded lettuce. Top with
dressing made with half cup of
mayonnaise into which is beaten
one tablespoon of honey.
This menu prepared with care
and served colorfUlly should give
your family something to be
thankful for.

many books on the market to-

it is fact that young children

they like, over and over again.

THE BUSINESS of publishing
children's book has proven to be
a highly lucrative one both for
publishers and authors.
As q result, the market has
become increasingly competi-
tive. The direction this cOmpeti-
ton takes is toward sales ap-
peal aimed at parents, leaving
the ultimate consumer (the
child out i'm the cold.
There have appeared all kinds
of novelty books, from jump-ups
and animated books to the latest
cute thing-a book wrapped in
fur. These gimmicks are put on
the market to sell, regardless OF
the fact that most of them are
meaningless to the child and
many are dangerous to his emo
tional life.
1T SHOULD be interesting to
count the number of different
Mother Goose editions, which
have been published in the past
few years, each becoming more
novel, charming and lavishly IL
Illustrated than the last.
Mother Goose has been a big
publishing item, although many
of it's verses are full of fear and
adult symbolism which makes
them of doubtful value to the
young child. Humpty Dumpty
may seem a harmless jingle to
most parents, but to any young
child who has a great fall the
idea of not being put together
again" is apt to be frightening
one.
The idea behind the verse of
Goldilocks, who is courted by
promises of "thou shalt not wash
dishes nor yet feed the swine;
but sit on a cushion and sew a

State Offers TWoF Fe0tureS
 Excellent Program
 To Start Sunday

Now showing at the State Thea ter is Warner Bros. film adoption of Edna Ferbers best-selling novel, Saratoga Trunk, starring Gary Cooper and Ingrid Bergman with an excellent supporting cast.
 Starting Sunday is Paramount's latest Mitchell Leisen extravagan- ga, Masquerade in Mexico" which brings a new Dorothy Lamour to the screen with co-star Arturo de Cordova. Dorothy sings high so- prano instead of the usual contral- to, dances an intricate bolero num- Der with Billy Daniels and wears some of the most eye-catching gowns ever seen on the screen. Without benefit of sarong, Lamour turns out to be quite as glamorous as she ever was, cavorting gatly in the elegant attire of Mexicos smart international set.
 Masquerade in Mexico" has all the beauty and pageantry expected of a Mitchell Leisen production. The story is an amusing affair in- volving a woman who masquerades as an aristocratic Countess to es- cape from 8 diamond smuggler George Rigaud), and a dashing Matador (Arturo de Cordova) who makes overtures to another mans wife (Ann Dvorak until he man (Patric Knowles hires Lamour to vamp de Cordva) and patch up his marriage.

 The co-hit on the same program is the thrilling and powerfully dramatic film "Out Of The Depths" featuring Jim Bannon, Ross Hun ter, Ken Curtis, Loren Tindall, Rob- ert Scott and Frank Scully. It is a revealing, fictionized story of Q sec- ret with Jap fanatics who fought on after surrender.
 Romance and mystery comprise the dual theme of RKO Radios latest drama offering, "The Spiral Staircase, which starts Wednesday at the State and stars Dorothy Me Guire, George Brent and Ethel Barrymore.
 Miss Mcclure is a New England heroine mysteriously marked for death at the hands of an unknown killer who has created local reign of terror. A young doctor (Kent Smith) seeks to protect her by sending her out of town. But cir cumstances force the girl into vir- tual imprisonment in a gloomy old mansion which shelters an elderly invalid and two men. Now she de- cides which is the killer, only te find at the crucial moment that she has made a horrible mistake by suspecting the one who could have helped her constitutes tht thrill-packed climax of the film

HAYWOOD, March 22--I won- oer If you remember Jane Bryan2 A protegee of Bette Davis, Jane made an enviable reputation for herself in such films as "Kid Gal- ahad," "The Sisters" we Are Not Alone" and Each Dawn Die" She spent only three years in the movies, but in that short period she definitely established herself in top ranks of screen actresses. Then she married, quit Hollywood, and was promptly forgotten.
 This week I heard from Miss Bryan. AS the wife of Justin Dart, a wealthy drug tycoon, she lives very happily in Boston suburb with her husband and children, and has no regrets at having sacrificed a promising career.
 Jane's choice is something every young screen actress should con- slider. All of the glamour and gilt ter of success is hardly worth the price demanded in heartache and loneliness. Consider the marital scores of the top feminine stars. Bette Davis, Lana Turner, Joan Crawford, Judy Garland, Rita Hay worth, Paulette Goddard, Ginger Rogers, Betty Grable, infact, every star you can think of with more than one unhappy marriage to her credit. How many of them would like to change places with Jane Bryan?
 No, I think Jane has chosen wise- ly. She willingly gave up success for happiness and if she ever doubts the wisdom of her decision, she need only watch the record of her former friends to be convinced that hers is the better life.
