DECEMBER 15. 1954 Adult School Has C An interesting group of people attended the Adult School Opening Exercises at Academy Street School November 29 for residents of the Clinton Mills Community. The interest in the school on the part of community leaders was indicated by the presence of Rev. W. R. Quinn and Rev. J. A. Williams. George Hugulev, Clinton Mills Superintendent; D. S. Who Am I? I AM more powerful than the combined armies of the world. I have destroyed more men than all the wars of the nations. I am more deadly than bullets, and I have wrecked more homes than the mightiest of guns. I spare no one, and I find my victims among the rich and the poor alike; the young and the olH thr> ctmnn , ...w UVA v/ll^ C&11U the weak, widows and orphans know me. I loom up to such proportion that I cast my shadow over the field of labor, from the turning of every grindstone to the moving of every railroad train. I massacre thousands upon thousands of wage earners in a year. ? I lurk in unseen places, and do most of :nv work silently. You are warned against me, but you heed not. I am everywhere?in the home, on the streets, in the factory, at railroad crossings, and on the sea. I bring sickness, degradation and death; and yet, few seek to avoid me. I destroy, crush and maim; I give nothing, but take all. I am your worst enemy. I am CARELESSNESS! Executive Committee } Holds Meeting The Executive Committee of the Clinton Mills Womans Club held a special meeting at the Community Building late in November with Mrs. Oscar Kinard presiding.

Guest speaker for the evening was Miss Marguerite Tolbert, supervisor of adult education in South Carolina, who emphasized the importance of continued education of adults. She also urged the students to culture thorn selves educationally through travel with a trip to Washington next Spring. After refreshments in the cafeteria, the students enrolled in regular classes to be taught bv Mrs. Marvin Whitmire and in commercial classes to be taught bv Mrs. M. L. Irbv. Cooking Turkey This Year? Here are a few simple suggestions to help make your holiday turkey cooking just a bit easier. 1. Truss (shaping for compactness) the bird. If desired, stuff. Bring the neck skin onto the back and fasten with a skewer. Close the cavity opening with cord and skewers. Then bring the drumstick ends together and tie securely to the tail. Grease the skin with fat. 2. Place turkey, breast up. on a rack in an open shallow pan. Cover the top and sides loosely with aluminum foil or a fat-moistened cheesecloth. Do not wrap the bird in the foil or cloth. 3. Roast at constant low temperature (325 F.) until done. Do not sear or cover the pan. Do not add water to pan. oasiing may be done, but it is not necessary. 4. The time required for small turkeys. 6 to 12 lbs., is 3:' | to 5 hours; medium turkeys. 12 to 16 lbs., 5 to 6 hours; and large turkeys, 16 to 20 lbs.. 6 to 7*2 hours. The times given are based on turI i i i kuvs purcnasea reaay-to-cooK style and stuffed for roasting. 5. About a half hour before the turkey should be done, according to the times above, test the bird in this manner: press the fleshy part of the drumstick. It should feel very soft. Or, move the drumstick up and down. It should uive readily or the joint should break when the turkey is done. 6. It is a good plan to allow 20 or 30 minutes more than the time required for roasting so that the turkey has a wait inn period before dinner is served. Juices will be absored into the meat, and the bird will be easier to carve and slice more attractively.
