SAFETY COUNCIL NOTES

The Delaware Safety Council
points out that the wisely chosen
toy is tool for playing-an instru-
ment for carving out rich dreams,
for gaining experience, for achiey-
ing skills, and for forming the first
rough shapes of life ambition.
EXpertly chosen toys can help TO
prepare young children for school.
hey can supplement the educa-
tional development of the older
child, and provide examples of the
ways in which knowledge and
skills can be put to practical uses.
The first consideration is the age
and development of the child. The
chemical set which might be suit
able and stimulating for boy of
ten years. would be unsuitable and
unsafe in the hands of fiveyear-
cid.
Children find fun only with toys
they can understandings they can
enjoy. A toy that is too advanced
for a child will cause feeling of
Illustration, instead of providinc
educational experience. On the
other hand, toy that offers nc
challenge will only bore the child
and will be tossed aside.
Furthermore, if the toy is to pro-
vide any play value or stimulation
tor the child. it is also essential
that it coincide with his expressed
interests. The chemical set men
toned above, should be questioned
as a gift for the boy who spends q
large portion of his allowance fol
model plane kits. or the boy who
uses most of his leisure for partici.
patton in athletic activities. Select
play tools which are related to his
hobbies. which help in school acti.
| vities, or which lure him on to new
fields of experience.

Food For Thought
The Turkeys
by Mary 4. Davenport, Nutritionist
State Board of Health

Turkey, once used as the best
of holiday meats, now takes place
side-by-side with the other more
frequently used meats.
First, the surplus of turkey from
last winter. held in cold storage,
added to this years stock makes
the cost reasonable. Second, the
cost of other meats being much
greater draws turkey from the lux
ury class.
If you can handle ii complete
bird. check turkey prices against
other meats. Adequate refrigera-
ton is a necessity if left over por-
tions are to be kept any length of
time. Remember double portion
of turkey la king may be pre-
pared. Then the unused portion
may be frozen. Six weeks of stor-
age is the maximum time recon-
mended. However, most of us find
we can use it sooner than that.
Should the whole bird be too
much for your family, your but
cher may sell you a "half-turkey.
These birds split from head to
tail and each portion has 1a the
breast. one leg, one second joint,
etc. These "half-turkeys" prove
adequate for many families. If you
want the lovely appearing bird to
serve we'll Drowned OH the platter,
the half turkey adapts itself very
well. The cavity is filled, the bird
is roasted and served with the fill
ing against the platter. The crisp.
brown skin may still be a source
of pleasure to the family. Then
thoughts of not having to eat it
daily for the next week may make
the first serving more attractive
than ever.
The food value of turkey com
pares favorably with other meats
Shop around a bit. compare prices
and qualities in birds. It's fine
way to ease the pain of other meat
prices and to extend the holiday
season over a longer period of the
wear
Milford chronicle., 1946-11-08

Do not omit safety from your
consideration in purchasing Il toy.
Something intended for a small
child OF an infant should be large
enough so it cannot be swallowed.
The eyes of stuffed animals and
dolls should be sewed on securely,
or better still, embroidered. Since
the young child puts everything in
to the mouth, it is also important
that his playthings be easily
cleaned. Toys should be made OF
woods that do not splinter. OF
metals that have no sharp edges
and the paint or cOloring should be
non-pOisOnous.
When you select toy. select one
that will make contribution to the
child's life. See that it is suitable
stimulating, durable, and safe.
