It’s Thanksgiving time - time for
families to gather, time for giving
thanks for the bountiful blessings
we have received, and time to
enjoy the sumptuous food on our
holiday tables.
I have had calls from far away
places, as far west as California
about the Southern Cornbread
Dressing recipe in my cookbook. I
have been asked to repeat this
particular recipe in our Nook
during the holiday season, and here
it is for those of you who may need
it.
Another recipe for your holiday
table is this Creamy Cranberry
Salad, so good with turkey, chicken
or pork.
One of my favorite desserts for
this season is a Holiday Tart, full of
raisins and nuts; this one is always
a favorite with the men.
It’s hard to believe, but the
holidays are here and may yours be
happy days.
SOUTHERN CORN
BREAD DRESSING
3 cups crumbled corn bread
2 to 3 eggs
2 to 2Vi cups crumbled dry bread,
use day-old light bread
4 to 5 cups turkey or chicken stock
V 2 cup melted butter
1 onion, chopped fine
Va cup finely chopped celery
V 2 teaspoon pepper
V 2 tablespoon salt
V 2 tablespoon sage or poultry
seasoning
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Mix
bread, add raw eggs and other
ingredients. Mix well. Have
dressing soft, about consistency of
cake batter or thick soup (really
soupy, this is the secret of good
dressing, it will cook dry); this
degree of consistency was the
hardest for me to learn. Bake in
greased baking dish 13x9V6 inches
for about 40 minutes. Serves about
12. If you wish you may stuff your
bird with this dressing. If bird is
stuffed, allow about 5 minutes
more cooking per pound.
For Chestnut dressing: Follow
the recipe for Southern Corn Bread

Dressing, adding l cup cooked

CREAMY CRANBERRY SALAD
1 can (1 pound) whole cranberry
sauce
1 cup boiling water
1 package (3-ounce) strawberry
flavored gelatin
1 tablespoon lemon juice
V 2 cup mayonnaise
1 cup chopped celery
Va cup chopped pecans
Heat cranberry sauce, strain
out juice. Mix juice, water, and
gelatin, stir until dissolved. Add
lemon juice. Chill until slightly
thickened. Add mayonnaise and
beat with rotary beater until fluffy.
Fold in cranberries, celery, and
pecans. Stir and pour into in
dividual molds. Chill until firm.
Serves 6.
NOTE: If you prefer you may
substitute 1 apple, chopped, for the

HOLIDAY TARTS
Pastry for 2-crust pie
2 eggs
1 cup seedless raisins
1 cup brown sugar
Va cup melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup chopped nuts
3 teaspoons cream
Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
Divide pastry in half in 5 or 6 parts.
Roll in 5 inch circles. Place in
ungreased muffin pans. Beat eggs.
Add remaining ingredients and
mix well. Put 1 tablespoon in each
unbaked pastry shell and bake.
(Don’t worry about the small
amount place in shell, the mixture
“swells” upon cooking.) Makes
approximately 16 tarts. If desired,
serve with a dash of whipped
cream on top.
HAPPY HOLIDAY COOKING!
NOTE: The amount of salad oil in
last week’s Fruit Cake should have
been Va cup. The amount of oil was
omitted - - sorry.
man crew while the KC
-135 tanker from the 912th
Air Refueling Squadron
will be flown by Capt.
Brian Loftus and his four
man crew.
Selection of finalists is
based on a complicated
points scoring system
whereby all phases of a
bomber and tanker
mission are evaluated.
The initial phases of the
competition began over a
month ago with (when)
all of the aircrews
throughout SAC flew
Giant Voice qualification
flights. From these early
rounds of the competition
the top three crews per
squadron were selected
as semi-finalist.
The semi-finalist in
turn flew earlier this
month and from that
flight the finalist were
selected. Having begun
with over six hundred air
crews this command -
wide event is now
narrowed to less than
fifty. Robins wishes the
very best of luck to Capt.
Lewis and Capt. Loftus
and their crews as they
fly SAC’s Super Bowl --
Giant Voice 1979.

LITTLE BEAUTIES
Last Saturday night the
Robins Youth Activities
group sponsored the first
Robins Little Miss
pageant at Smith
Recreation Center,
R.A.F.B. To my
knowledge, Bonaire had
only one entry - my own
tiny tot. Alas, Megan was
grossly overlooked at the
award-giving time (of
course, I’m sending new
eyeglasses to all the
judges), however, she
thoroughly enjoyed the
week of “parties”
preceeding and including
the show.
These practice sessions
were well disguised by
Coordinators Fran
Blackmer and JoAnn
Banbury, who, for the
sake of the 3 and 4 year
old age division, did
everything from story
telling to ring around the -
roses to keep the
youngsters from getting
up-tight or bored during
the somewhat lengthy
rehearsals. All of the
“ladies backstage” were
super-loving and patient
that made those of us
‘moms’ who were new to
this particular ex
perience feel more
secure.
I could write a diary of
the entire week, which I
found both unique and
fascinating, but I’d better
just stick to the Pageant.
The M.C.’s were Gena
Pope (Miss Northside)
and John Brigmond, both
of whom offered musical
entertainment while the
young ladies, ages 7 & 8, 5
& 6, and 3 & 4 changed
from dresses to sport
swear to “evening” garb
for their brief walks in
the spotlight. A short
dance number, to the
tune of King Tutt, was
, offered by young Scott
McEntire of Warner
Robins. He did a pretty
. mean Boogie, con
sidering the fact that he
was all wrapped up (as in
mummified) at the time!
The man behind the
scenes, who directed the
show itself and
courageously dealt with
some twenty doting
mothers, was Barry
Haley. My hat’s off to
you, kiddo!
In any case, the
mpment of truth ap
proached! The
tabulations were being
tabulated -- all very of
ficially by a member of
the Auditor General’s
Office. Everyone on the
edge of their seats -- and
my little girl calling out
to tell me that her ribbon
had come loose, she
wanted the flowers I’d
bought, and she REALLY
needed a coke -- like
NOW! ... Oh well, I
wasn’t so distracted that
I didn’t catch the winners

A wide-eyed beauty
named Ton j anica
Rambert earned the
Little Miss Robins title in
the 7 and 8 year old
division.
Missy McCourry, won
the 5 and 6 year old title,
and believe me, that child
,has a face any mother,
father, sister or brother
could adore.
Four year old Crystal
Ohr, who gave a rousing
cheer in the sportswear
competition and has
brown hair and brown
eyes, took the 3 to 4 years
old title.
My mom always said
beauty was more than
skin deep, so I’d like to
mention one more con
testant. In the 7 and 8
year old division (really
the only group that was
aware of the “com
petition” side of it all),
Rehoboth Plans
For ‘M’ Nights
The Church Training
Department of Rehoboth
Baptist Association is
happy to announce
simultaneous “M” Night
programs Monday night,
November 26, 1979. The
First Baptist Church,
Warner Robins, and the
First Baptist Church,
Perry will host these
meetings beginning at
7:30 p.m.
“M” Night seeks to
accomplish three basic
purposes. These are; (1)
Provide and interpret
INFORMATION con
cerning the program of
Church Training for the
year ahead. (2) Provide
FELLOWSHIP for
members of churches in
the Association, and (3)
Provide INSPIRATION
for the work to be done in
the Church Training
programs.
there was a pretty young
lady named Angel Wiggs.
I happened to get a
glimpse of her during the
aftermath of the show.
"Angel” suits her, as she
offered congratulations
to the winners, and wore
the same genuine smile
I’d seen on her face as she
played with the littler
ones during rehearsals.
Mom was right.
The Pageant was a
pretty nice first attempt
by the youth group. Sure,
there were some errors,
but then imagine my
surprise when I
discovered in the Macon
paper the next morning
that my little girl
“Magan” (I was sure it
was Megan) was a year
younger and three inches
shorter than I’d believed.
We are, none of us,
perfect.
PAGE 13-A
Rehoboth Baptist
Association is composed
of 43 Cooperating Baptist
Church located in
Crawford, Houston,
Macon, Peach, and
Taylor counties.
The “M” Night
program theme is
‘‘Equipping For
Missions.” This emphasis
is directly related to our
Southern Baptist Church,
Convention theme “Bold
Mission Thrust.” Dr,
Kenneth Bush, Pastor of
the First Baptist Church,
Montezuma will be the
guest speaker at First
Baptist Church, Perry.
Dr. Allen Cornish, special
assistant to the
President, Mercer
University, will be the
guest speaker at First
Baptist Church, Warner
Robins.
The Pastors and
Church Training
Directors of Rehoboth
Baptist Association have
been challenged to enlist
their church training
members to support the
“M” Night program
nearest to them.
False Alarms
Are Expensive
False alarms are ex
pensive! Ask ranger Joe
Batchelor of the Houston
County Unit, Georgia
Forestry Commission,
and he will tell you that it
is very costly to move
men and heavy equip
ment into a fire area.
That’s why he says it is
important for persons
planning a controlled
burn to first notify the
forestry unit. The ranger
said the commission is
dedicated to conserving
energy wherever possible
and notification to burn
prevents unnecessary
dispatch to a fire that is
contained and super
vised. “Call us before you
burn,” urges Ranger Joe
Batchelor. “Help your
forestry unit conserve
time, energy and man
power.”
