PAGE TWO Planning Thanksgiving Dinner Sister Mary Plays Again By SISTER MARY (For Times-Recorder) Since the days of our Pilgrim forefathers, the turkey has been the king of birds for the Thanksgiving dinner. A 10-pound turk -y is ideal for the family of ordinary lize. and if n larger bird i needed, two 10- are preferable to one 18 ' $ fowl. *\* J lie dinner should be planned at flay. The stuffing ingredients for the turkey should be prepared for mixing, the cranberry sauce or jel'y made, the pumpkin stewed and sifted on the day before. Two or three days ahead of the feast the silver should be polished and the turkey platter brought out and cleaned. Fill the salts and peppers' and sugar bowls. Order your flowers or at least decide on the centerpiece. Choose the table cloth you want to use and be sure any accessories you may need are in readiness. Low Centerpiece Speaking of table decorations, remember to keep the centerpiece low and not too large. The table should not be crowded, and the center decoration should conform to the shape of the table. Fruit and nuts arranged attractively in a bowl can serve a double purpose— as a center decoration and as the last, course for dinner. The following menu may meet your immediate needs or suggest other possibilities for you : Clam Broth Celery Olives Radishes > Roast Turkey Oyster Stuffing Cranberry Sauce Maphod Potato: s Giblet Gravy Baked Squash Creamed Onions Grapefruit Salad Cheese Cups \ Pumpkin Pie Nuts Fruit Coffee Pickled peaches or other home made relishes can take the place of the salad course if preferred. Rice pudding is often served as the des sert instead of pie. Whatever you choose to do, plan yotur entire dinner around the tur key. The other courses should be simpla and of such foods as will form a background for and enhance the glory of the bird. First ofall, the choice of the bird is important. Th<- idea! turkey is eight Or nine months old, weighing 10 or 12 pounds. The bird should be plump, with firm flesh and clear skin. The cartilage a 1 the end of the breast bone should be soft and pliable, with the breast itself broad and plump. The “drum-sticks” should be smooth and firm Wi’h ■:>. dark tinge.

To stuff a turkey, put the stuff ing by spoonfuls through the in cision in the neck. Sew the skin to prevent the stuffing from fall ing out while cooking. Fill the body cavity with stuffing and sew the incision together. Use a big needle and a strong, soft cord.

SMITH, Manager THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER ’ BEN LYON PLAYS OPPOSITE POLA Ben Lyon, who plays the lead op posite Pola Negri in her latset star ring picture, “Lily of the Dust,” which Dimitri Buchowetzki produc ed for F’aramount, is one of the youngest and most attractive lead ing men on the silver screen. He was born in Atlanta, Geor gia, and educated at Park School and Baltimore City College in Bal time. He mapped out. his career while still attending ccSlege. His decision -was the result of seeing the old Paramount studio in New York‘City. After leaving college, he obtain ed some good pictures and called upon the casting director. As he entered the building a man looked at him and remarked, “You'll do.” The man Ws Joe Kauffman, hus band of Ethel Clayton. By the merest chance Kauffman was look ing for ‘juift such a type as Lyon when he entered the studio. He was given a part in “The Travel ing Salesman.” Believing that was the wrong way to make a success of motion j man of the island of Sti Kilda in the Hebrics has just visited Fleet wood where, for the first time he saw a railroad train, an automobile, a trolley car and a moving picture show. He was amazed at all these wonders, but after a few days was not sorry to return to St. Killda pictuie work, Lyon devoted his en ergies to stage work for rhe next five years. During this time he played in a number of important stage productions including “Seven teen,” “The Wonderful Thing,” Ro mance,” “Mary the Third” and “Three Live Ghosts.” With this training to help, he once more returned to the silver screen and was an instantaneous success. He played in “Potash and Perlmutter,” Flaming Youth,” Painted F'eople” and "The White Moth.” “Lily of the Dust,” which comes to the Rylander Theatre next Wed nesday is Lyon’s first screen work for Paramount. Others in the strong supporting cast of the pro duction include Noah Beery, Ray mond Griffith, William Kelly and Jeanette Daudet.
