Pumpkins, a sign of harvest and Halloween decoration, are members of the squash family. Your first thought of pumpkin may be a pie baking in the oven. Abroad you will find a great diversity of puddings, soups and vegetable dishes prepared with this member of the squash family. _ To cook pumpkin, wash and cut it half, crosswise. Remove seeds and strings. Place it in a pan, shell side up, and bake iMn a 325 degree oven for 1 hour or more, depending on size, until it is tender and begins to fall apart. Scrape the pulp from the shell and put it through a ricer or strainer. Now you are ready to bake a pie, make soup or can for future use. Pumpkin can also be substituted for winter squash in any recipe. About M> pound will serve 1 person. Don't toss out the seeds! Place seeds in an oblong pan and cover with the following ingredients: V\ c. butter, melted '/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce teaspoon celery salt '/4 teaspoon garlic salt Stire the mixture thoroughly. Place in a 250 degrees oven and bake 30 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon after 15 minutes. These are great for a snack and have a nutty flavor. For more information on processing pumpkin contact the McHenry County extension office. The address is P.O. Box 431, 224 W. Judd street, Woodstock, 60098; phone 338- 3737 or 4747.

There will be four seatings: 11:30, 12:15, 1 p.m. and 1:45. tickets are available at the door. There will also be a craft bazaar and bake sale in the church basement during the dinner. A listenin't' all th' goin's on these days, wi' a goodly amount a comin' through me radio, me ol' rockin' chair is a-gettin' a bit o'exercise. One thing that's been a-buzzin' about in me mind is th' emphasis on hyperactivity in younguns. It's no wonder that little-uns react t' th' noisy world we tolerate t'day. Seems there's no place t' find peace an' quiet. It's a pitj^that babes have t' be labeled, f'r th' reason they're affected. This granny an' me own youngsters grew up in an invironment so foreign t' th' noise pollution we attempt t' adjust to, there's no com­ parison. If doctors were wise, they'd stress th' need f'r a more quiet environment. Another thing that seems paramount t' this granny, is th' TV influence, wi' all th' dif­ ferent kinds o' human b'havior, that must seem confusin't' th' young minds. A desire t' grow up, be free o' a-bein' a child is a natural endeavor in th' mind o' th' young. It b'hooves us t' gi' 'em a decent example t' foller, an' there's so much on th' TV that b'longs t' th' private part o' adult lives, that it gives younguns impressions, too far advanced f'r 'em t' deal wi'. All these things, along wi' th' persistant noise an' confusion, found in th' average modern home these days, has a definite effect on th' nerves, an' per- vides a sort o' artificial stimulation t' th' little-uns. Another important item is th' lack o' teachin' o' self-control, from th' time a youngun c'n toddle. Th' psychiatrists make a fortune on folks who ne'er learned t' cope wi' frustrations, control o' emotions, an' t' develop th' ability t' grow mentally able t' face life as it comes, wi'. th' inevitable problems. Parents used t' endeavor t' put th' foundation f'r mental development t' bring out th' best, th' highest potential, in th' younguns, an' it took a lot o' devoted effort, patience, an' above all th' most important, love. Th' kind o' love, offered th' young, these days, only encourages desire f'r more o' th' materialistic type they receive. Th' product is th' type o' younguns we see so much of, in this enlightened age, easy prey f'r th' wrong influence in their search f'r happiness an' love.
