ROAST PHEASANT* THEN MAKE HAT FROM FEATHERS Enhance your fall wardrobe/ with a pheasant hat made from feathers of the bird your hunter bags this season. The hat will be easy to make and also easy on your pocketbook. You'll need a buckram frame, adhesive, glue, sheet wadding, ah old nylon stocking and hair net, binding, needle, thread and the feathers, says Mrs. Lorraine Trebilcock, University of Illinois clothing and textiles specialist. You must skin the pheasant, although the skin itself isin't used on the hat. Skinning is necessary because you mu9t put the feathers on the hat the same way they were on the bird. When you're ready to make the hat, just snip the feathers off the cured skin. Some hunters say, the roasted, bird loseq much flavor when skinned. However, experienced game cooks say the flavor increases when the pheasant has been skinned. / To cook a skinned pheasant, either put strips of bacon across it and roast in a covered pan or coait the entire bird with cooking oil or butter, cover tightly with a double thickness of aluminum foil and roast in an open pan. For full information on removing and curing pheasant skins and making the hats, write to the College of Agriculture, Mumford hall, University of Illinois, Urbana.

Riverside Dr. McHenry, 111 PRESCRIPTION CHEMISTS * Quotation by Thomas Haliburton (1796-1885) Tips On Safe Winter Driving;; Are Given By Safety (Council 1>'• .S.i "•?& " Power brakes and power steering can get you into trouble wfyen driving on ice because they make it easier to over-control. That fact is pointed out by the National Safety Council in a new booklet on winter driving hazards, based on sixteen years of actual research on frozen lakes. "This will be the first winter during which a large number of cars equipped with power brakes and power steering will be on the road," said Arnold Vey, director of traffic and transportation for the council. "Many drivers have no£ been adequately instructed 'In using the new equipment, especially tinder winter conditions. We need a new look at some of the ABC's of driving today's cars safely and skillfully." The council's winter driving booklet covers the ABC's in detail, emphasizing the necessity' to practice smooth driving all year so that it is a habit when roads are slippery. Over-controlling is one of the chief winter driving errors, according to the council. Starting, stopping and changing direction too suddenly causes many damaging and sometimes fatal skids. Since power brakes and power steering make it easier to lock the brakes or over-steer as the result of a panicky reaction to an emergency, the council's booklet recommends that drivers practice using a deft touch on "jjmch devices. Automatic transmissions and hydraulic drives give gdod starting control on ice and snow, the booklet states. However, il your car has "duel range" transmission it is recommended that' the lower or "S" range be used on slippery surfaces. '. Booklet Hps" Here- are some tips from the booklet .on starting, stopping and steering:" STARTING -- Adjust the seat correctly so your foot rests fully and easily on the accelerator. Feed gad slowly and smoothly to avoid spinning the wheels. With a gear shift car, start in second. Don't let' the ' Clutch pedal out fast. It cloes no good, to lower tire pressure on modern tires, Snow tir«;e may help, and tire chains definitely Will, STOPPING -- Learn the technique of jumping ypur brakes. Apply the brakes quickly (lock them) for an instant*, and quickly completely release tfreni for an instant. Repeat this ohoff actioft rapidly to a full stop. The effect is to give short intervals of maximum .t*rak&ng, alternated with short intervals of effective steering when wheels roll. This pumping method is especially important with power brakes. Council tests have shown that reinforced tire chains cut braking distances in half on both snow and ice. The reinforced tire chain has projecting teeth or cleats on the link of each cross chain. They hot only/give the best stopping and traction performance, but also provide excellent resistance to side skidsv Some snow tires give substantial advantage in loose snow and slush, "but they are not much •more elective than regular tires for tee or hard-backed snow, the booklet advises. STEERING -- Turn your wheel carefully to take advantage of the maximum steering power of your tires. If you should oversteer, stjpaighiten a bit and then turn again. This can be compared to the "pumping" technique recommended for brakes, ft you stajrt to skid/turn your wheels immediately in the direction of the skid, but dpnt over-compensate.
