It's time f'r prayerful thanks, not only f'r th' bounties en­ joyed, but f'r a chance t' take a better look at life, an' what it offers. It's time t' be thankful f'r a chance t' be int'rested in what's happenin' t' our coun­ try, an't' make th' effort t' not be satisfied wi' jist goin' along, takin' what comes, but t' try an' help shape th' state o' things, toward a better future. We're blessed, here in America, wi' a wonderful freedom t' speak our minds, somethin' not known in other parts o' the world. That freedom came to us, as th' heritage, passed down t' us, from ancestors who were in­ t'rested in a better way o' life, not only f'r themselves, but f'r their posterity. Somewhere, along th' way, that goal has been sidetracked, an' a good many folks 're only concerned wi' what they c'n have, in their own lifetimes. fi HELPFUL IDEAS FOR SUCCESSFUL RETIREMENT % Poll on Aging Findings of a national poll on aging reveal some interesting facts Lou Harris & Associates, national pollsters, surveyed more than 4.200 personns in all parts of the country last spring to deter­ mine the public's attitude toward aging, and their perception of what it's like to be old. Older Americans' views and attitudes about themselves were docu­ mented. too. Major findings include: --81 per cent of the public believes the Federal government should use general tax revenues to help support older people. --86 per cent are opposed to mandatory retirement at a fixed age if the worker wants and is able to continue working --15 per cent of the over 65 people, representing about 3 million Americans, say their problem is not having enough monevto live on --37 per cent of the retired people polled, representing 4 4 million persons in this country, said that they did not retire by their own choice, and 31 per cent said they would like to still be working --62 per cent of the public believe older people spend much time "sitting and thinking;" only 31 per cent of the elders report that's what they do. --5 per cent of the public believe 65+ people are sexually active; 16 per cent of older men and 7 per cent of older women say they are --There are 4.5 million older persons doing volunteer work and another 10 per cent said they would like to volunteer work. --Four out of five older persons look back on their past with satisfaction, three in four feel their present life is interesting, and more than half are still making plans for the future ing menu. List separately all the foodstuffs needed to prepare it. Check your sup­ ply of staples-flour,sugar, v e g e t a b l e s , s h o r t e n i n g , spices, seasoning, etc. Buy a hen turkey if you want one of 8 to 15 lbs. Tom turkeys are better for an 18 to 25 lb. bird. Allow % lb. of full-drawn turkey (minus head, feet or organs) per person. If you buy a frozen tur­ key thaw with care. Two to four days in refrigerator, or six to 12 hours under cold running water. Leave in original wrap to keep juice loss to a minimum. After stuffing-, truss the bird by shaping the wings akimbo. Brush the salted and peppered bird thorough­ ly with melted fat; then place in refrigerator until time to roast. When ready to cook, place breast side up, on wire rack in open roasting pan, moderate oven.

Church Circle Holds Holiday Luncheon Dec. 2 The Marcia Mary Ball circle will meet for the annual Christmas luncheon Tuesday, Dec. 2, at 12:30p.m. at the First United Methodist church. ^Marilyn Haines and Lyda Radisch will be hostesses. The Christmas luncheon is always a festive event, and it is hoped that all members will be able to attend. This will be the last meeting of the current year, so plans for the new year will be discussed. Marcia Mary Ball, the missionary for whom this circle has been named, will be at the Methodist church in Crystal Lake Sunday, Dec. 7, at the morning services, and it is hoped that as many members of the circle as possible will be able to attend. Transportation can be arranged. As this day o' Thanksgivin' is enjoyed wi' festive tables filled wi' th' best food th' world of­ fers, t'day, may there be th' prayer, in every mind, that someday, everyone in th' world '11 be able t' have the' equal in good things. Somehow, me appetite wanes, when th' mind slips back t' rememberin' all th' hungry children in far off places. Somehow th' turkey an' fixin's don't tease th' palate as much, an' th' pumpkin pie ain't so tasty. But we, all, have t' live our lives, an' a thought f'r th' under-privileged in th' world, wi' a promise, an' a will t' help correct their state, helps t' appease th' conscience. Sof have a good Thanksgiving' day. Be glad o' th' opportunity t' be able t' try, an' help a fellow when ye can. Make a vow t' be int'rested in your government, enough t' care who ye trust wi' th' welfare o', not only your own future, but that o' th' generations t' come.

VMsather sTHi Are animals sometimes sensitive to weather changes? Can they sense changes about to occur in the weather? Some animals can detect signs of changing weather before the average human is aware that clues are about.

Some time ago in Mexico City, zoo keepers and an­ imal and pet owners swamp­ ed veterinarians' offices for almost twenty-four hours before an earthquake.

Clean Pots and Pans Clean burned-on pots and pans easier by first filling the utensils with water and automatic dishwashing detergent. Then simmer gently 10 to 15 minutes. Don't put your hands into the w a t e r - d e t e r g e n t s o l u t i o n . Automatic dishwasher detergent is very caustic. Blueberries Today's cultivated blueberries are as large as marbles, and ex­ perimental varieties are now being tested that are almost as large as golf balls. The blueberry is the newest plant to be domesticated and improved. Cultivated varieties of blue­ berries have been in exist­ ence less than 50 years, and the public has been able to buy blueberries for less than 30 years.
