In other words, there's nothing like a wonderful family and most homemakers agree that they deserve nothing but the best. Often the simplest desserts are the best. Pictured are mer- ingue shells—easy with a rotary beater. Make them, bake them and cool them; then at serving time fill them with a favorite filling and the approval will be 100 percent. MERINGUE SHELLS 2 egg whites 1/8 tp salt 1/8 tp cream of tartar 1/2 cup sugar 1/2 tp vanilla Beat egg whites, salt and cream of tartar until foamy throughout. Add sugar, 2 tbl. at a time, beating thoroughly after each ad- dition. Continue beating until meringue will form stiff shiny peaks. Add vanilla and beat well. (Entire beating process takes about 10 minutes). Using a spoon or pastry tube shape meringues in rounds on brown paper cut to fit baking sheet, making each about 3 inches in diameter and 1 1/4 inches high. With a spoon make a de- pression in the center of each. Bake at 450 degrees for 40 min- utes; turn off heat and cool in oven 60 minutes or overnight. When thoroughly cooled fill with any desired filling. This makes 4 to 6 shells. COOKIE FRUIT FREEZE Line bottom and sides of 8x8" pan with 2 dozen chocolate wa- fers.

Usually carving is done by the head of the family but how will a young husband carve a turkey if this is his first experience? In order to assist those of you who may soon be faced with this task, here are a few tips on carving turkey. In fairness to the carver, be sure the beautifully browned, perfectly cooked turkey is on a platter considerably larger than the bird. It should be breast up with the legs at the carver's right. Provide a sharp knife for carving—no one can do a good job with a poor tool—and a small serving platter for the cut meat. STEPS IN CARVING 1. Anchor bird by inserting carving fork halfway along the breast on far side of bird. Re- move whole leg (thigh and drum- stick) from near side of bird. Hold drumstick firmly with fin- gers, pulling it gently away from bird's body, and cut through skin between thigh and body. 2. press leg away from body with flat side of knife. Then cut through joint joining leg to back- bone and cut through the skin on the back. Put leg on small platter. Hold drumstick with left hand at a convenient angle and separate drumstick and thigh by cutting down through joint to the plate. ' 3. When carving turkey, slice meat off drumstick. Hold drum- stick upright at a convenient angle and cut down, turning drum- stick to get thick, uniform slices. 4. To slice thigh meat, use a fork to hold thigh firmly on plate. Cut slices of meat parallel to the bone. 5. (a) Make a cut about an Cowen; assistant, Mrs. William Etherington; unit leaders, Mrs. H. Pollen, Mrs. H. Murray, Mrs. Winston Shapton, Mrs. R.

Cut at an angle through the joint and remove wing, leav- ing as much meat as possible on the breast. From top down carve thin slices of meat the full length of breast. OR (b) When carving a turkey, before removing wing, make a deep cut parallel to the wing and as close as possible to it. Starting at the front, and half way up the breast, cut thin slices of white meat down to the cut made parallel to the wing. The slices will fall from the turkey as they are cut to this line. Continue carving until enough meat has been carved for first servings. Carve additional turkey as needed. Enlarge the opening back of the breastbone and spoon out stuffing as each serving is pre- pared; or remove stuffing from an opening cut into side of bird where leg' has been removed. Remove stuffing from the front of bird by cutting through skin just ahead of breastbone. Ill Health? See your doctor first. Bring your prescription to MIDDLETON'S DRUGS Service for Mrs, O.
