When carving turkey, first cut
through the leg, crack the joint,
and then disjoin the leg from the
turkey. Cut the breast in medium
thick slices, not in chunks. Use
a sharp knife.

Turnips make an excellent gar-
nish. Cook until tender, cool and
scoop out the insides. Spread with
butter and fill with cubed, sea-
soned beets. Reheat and surround
the fowl platter.

If you spill pumpkin filling over
the edge of the crust it is likely
to burn during baking. Avoid this
by pouring only part of the filling
into the crust, put it in the oven,
then pour in the balance of the
filling.

Four Pensioners of
War 105 Years Ago
Austin.—Although the Texas Revo-
lution was won at San Jacinto 105
years ago, there are still four pen-
sioners of that war on the state rolls
who draw S37.50 each per quarter,
and all four are women, widows of
veterans.
Fast dwindling are the Confeder-
ate veterans of whom there are but
126 on the rolls. However, there arc-
2.990 widows of such veterans re-
ceiving pensions from the state.

in garrisoning distant outpoato?
The answer is voiced in a song—
a glorious hymn that will be heard
from virile young throats singing
>n praise of Him in whom reposes
mankind’s, steadfast hope in this
dark hour of the world’s history.
The hymn, a favorite of the
< American soldier and of his fore-
bears n arrr.B since colonial camp-
fires, “O Come, All Ye Faithful,”
will be sung in 200 new Army
chapels where this year Christmas
services wiil be held for the first
time.
In his spiritual life, Army chap-
lains declare, the citizen soldier
linds the closest tie linking military
duties with the cherished customs
of his home. Especially among
young men from the farming com-
munities and the towns and smaller
cities the observance of Christmas
in the camps will not be urlike the
progiams in churches throughout
t he land where friends and neigh-
bors assemble for the Christian
festival. In Army chapels the
saine midnight services will be
held, the youthful worshipper will
join in the same inspiring music, he
will hear again the same messages
of hope, the same fervent prayers
for peace and good will.
During Yuletide the singing of
familiar carols will enliven the
camps, not only in the training
areas at home but the same music
of cheer and comfort will echo from
the cliffs of Ireland and the wastes
of Greenland as well as among the
tropic shores of Trinidad, Guiana,
and the Orient. For the Chief of
Chaplains has announced the dis-
tribution of the new Army and
Navy Hymnal, a book containing
the best in sacred themes, subdi-
vided for Protestant, Catholic, and
Jewish forms of worship. Special
visitations will be made to the hos-
pitals. Neither will the inmates
■ ■f the guardhouse be overlooked.
All will share the spirit of Christ-
mas.
At this season the 1,686 chap-
lains in our Army take stock of
their efforts through the year, and
the Chief of Chaplains advises the
Chief of Staff as well aa the home
folks that moat encouraging prog-
ress has been made for the spirit-
ual well-being of the troops.
Where 11,640,000 soldiers attended
religions services during the last
fiscal year with an average of 07.8
persons at each service, it is

Possibly a direct descendant of the
hen that laid the golden egg is a
fowl belonging to J. B. Poteet of
the Clardy community. The hen
recently laid two eggs at the same
time. When Mr. Poteet broke the
oversized egg he found a smaller
one on the inside, shell and all.
The hen might have been trying
to do her Christmas bit by supply-
ing one egg for the cake and another
for the eggnog.
FORMER BOGATA COUPLE
MARRIED FIFTY YEARS
Mr. and Mrs. G. A. Winn of
Clarksville, observed their golden
wedding anniversary Sunday. They
were married Dec. 22, 1891, at Blos-
som and were residents of Bogata
at that time.
NO ENGAGEMENT
pointed out that there is now a
much larger participation and a
corresponding increase in the min-
istration of holy sacraments.
Said a veteran chaplain:
“The tradition established by
those pioneer soldiers who bowed
in prayer on the eve of Runker Hill
and in the storm-swept t. ■> at
Valley Forge is still alive in the
hearts of America’s defenders in
arms.”
