lb many Americans, the holiday season
means family feasts and celebrating with
good friends. But overindulgencc at
Thanksgiving, Hanukkah and Christmas
often leads to a New Year’s resolution to
lose weight.
This year, resolve to maintain a healthy
lifestyle and still eryoy the festivities. It's
easier than it sounds.
•\ : :.....'
of most holiday tables is a plump, roasted
turkey — an excellent low-calorie, low-
fat main course. There are only 163 cal-
ories in a three-ounce serving of white
meat without the skin. But use good
judgement when buying the bird. Some
self-basting turkeys are injected with oil
that is high in saturated fat and sodium.
Choose a plain frozen turkey instead, or
check the labels for a self-basting brand
that uses unsaturated vegetable oils.
'Turkey isn't the only admissable entree.
For those who prefer something a little
different, Cornish hens might be the
answer An exotic low-fat alternative is
game. Wild duck and pheasant are accept- and drink. Schedule
ably lean, as are partridge, quail and
other small birds. Venison is very lean,
and rabbit, with a flavor somewhat like
chicken, has only a fraction of chicken's
fat. But avoid commercially-raised game
animals which have a higher fat content
than their cousins from forest and field.
The American Heart Association Cook-
book has several tasty game recipes.
Don’t offset the heart-healthiness of
the main course by going overboard on

The pathway of life’s experi-
ence need not be strewn with
boulders nor pitted with chuck-
holes. I know it seems that way
at times, but life’s walk can be a
stroll through a garden if we can
just think of it that way. It takes
heart or courage to know that
life’s pathway can be smooth
and straight. Seneca said, “Cour-
age leads starward....” So take
heart, and leave the familiar path
if it seems too touglu.There is a
pathway of life for you That leads
It

the Alert Citizens for Environmental Safety had a balloon found
last week by a hunter in the Cloudcroft-Weed area, approximately
80 miles north of the balloon release launch-site in Hudspeth
County. On the day of the release, October 19, some thousand
balloons seemed to be going very high and southwesterly; however,
with the wind currents prevalent in our are, they probably went
all directions once aloft. Jerry Parsons of Tularosa, New Mexico,
was the hunter who found the balloon and called back to report
to ACES.

fc,the trimmings. Learn to make a low-fat
gravy, and reject that extra helping of
dressing. Vegetables are practically fat-
free and low in calories, so don't be bash-
ful about asking for seconds. But the
calorie-conscious should know that butter
and cream sauces add unnecessary fat
and cholesterol. Flavor with garlic, onion,
lemon juice, herbs or spices instead.
The meal ends with good news: There's
no reason to skip dessert. Simply use a
few tricks to make cookies, cakes and
pies that taste great but have less fat and
cholesterol. For example, substitute
evaporated skim milk for evaporated
milk, use three egg whites instead of two
whole eggs, and choose low-fat toppings
over whipped cream. And don't forget
that a simple bowl of mixed fruit is a
natural way to satisfy the sweet tooth.
Even if mqjor holiday meals are under
For example, the traditional centerpiece control, there is great temptation to nib-
r :---1---------- bie at offjce parties, neighborhood gath-
erings and family reunions. A smart
snacker avoids baked goods and highly
salted nuts and chips in favor of raw
vegetables or fruit treats. Party-goers
who just can’t resist should get involved
in a stimulating conversation as far from
the food as possible.
The party shouldn't be an excuse to
overdo it — especially when it comes to
alcoholic beverages. Limit consumption
to a moderate amount, and be sure there's
a non-drinker available to do the driving.
Finally, there are many things families
and friends can do together besides eat
an outing that
involves exercise, such as a brisk walk, a
bicycle ride, ice skating or sledding. And
there are plenty of indoor activities such
as bowling, racquetball, basketball, and
volleyball. In many areas, indoor tennis
courts and swimming pools are available.
The American Heart Association hopes
this holiday season is a safe and healthy
one for all.

The NORTHER that blew
in Sunday brought very cold
winds....however, cotton har-
vests continued on this chilly
but sunny day....several pickers
were running on the Rascoe
Farm,harvesting an unusually
heavy crop of beautiful cotton
....some of the best this valley
has ever seen CLM Farm can
boast of a high yielding, excel-
lent crop too....alfalfa cuttings
are recent and have been done
later this year due to a mild,
lengthy fall chilies on the
Estes Farm are worth viewing...
a sea of bright red - long green
and jalapenos just shows what
Dell Valley’s water, climate and
soil can and does produce
the tomatoes and cantaloupe,
as well as watermelons, were
harvested earlier, but were, as
usual of excellent quality and
sweetness remember in the
earlier days that carrots did
very well in the area where the
Estes Farms are now - they too
were unusually sweet and deli-
; AT TJJF
NOV. 21 MEETING OF THE
WASTE AUTHORITY in Aus-
tin, Engineer Ruben Alvarado
made the profound statement
that the northern Hudspeth
County proposed dumpsite tests
showed that the underground
water varies from three feet to
700 feet, that recharge in the
area is very rapid, and that the
rock is fractured it cost the
state thousands of dollars to
be convinced of this, when all
along the citizens of Hudspeth
County, along with highly quali-
fied experts in the 'field of hy-
drology and geology , knew it all
along... yet, the engineer recom-
mends “further study” in nor-
thern Hudspeth County for
several years-the Authority has
been telling the citizens of Huds-
peth County what they, the Au-
thority want us to hear and hope-
fully believe, when the only rea-
son a site is “suitable” in Huds-
peth County is that there are
fewer people to contaminate....
and fewer votes^ .'.
and with the cooperation of
those few in the county who
should be looking out for the
welfare of the citizens, they are
looking out for the welfare of the
power companies...;.......
HOPE EVERYONE had an en-
joyable Thanksgiving holiday
weekend now, CHRISTMAS
is just a month away!!
