The Split Infinitive A split infinitive is a form of ex pression in which the sign of the infinitive “to” is separated from its verb by a word or phrase, usually an adverb. For instance, "to qqickly return” instead of "to return quickly.” The split infinitive is frowned upon by a few "purists”, but it is used by nearly all good writers and is now regarded as respect able English. However, this form of expression is not usually adopt ed unless it is smoother or more effective than the regular form.

It must, first of all, be well selected, a delicately fla vored stuffing for the roast chicken and turkey, a more strongly fla vored one for the roast goose or duck, writes Helen Robertson In the Cleveland Plain Dealer.' Second, it must be perfectly sea soned. Not too strongly to over whelm the deliciousness of the bird, nor yet so bland in taste as to be uninteresting. Third, it must be of the proper consistency, not too moist, nor yet too dry. And fourth, there must be enough. Bread being the usual foundation of the dressing, let us talk of it first. All kinds of breads may be Bread Cut Into Small Cubes Makes Better Dressing. used in the dressing providing the white bread predominates. Cold biscuits, pieces of com bread, slices of toast, slices of whole wheat and of rye may all be used. Use part crust too, as well as the crumb. The bread should be dry and if part or all is lightly toasted, so much the better. And bread cut into small cubes makes better dressing than when crumbed. For the very large turkey, up ward of eighteen or nineteen pounds, two and one-half to three pounds of bread will be needed for the dressing, while for the smaller bird of around ten pounds, one and three-fourths to two pounds of bread may be used. And for the smaller bird, one pound and under should be sufficient. Celery, oysters, mushrooms, chestnuts, the other ingredients you will use are of course dependent upon your own personal tastes and upon the bird you are serving. Here is a basic recipe for dressing for the twelve to fifteen-pound bird. Bread Dressing. 8 qts. stale bread cubes Sage to taste 2 tbsp. salt 1 cup melted butter 1 tsp. pepper 2 cups chopped celery 1 tbsp. chopped parsley Cooked giblets Prepare bread, sprinkle with sea sonings. Pour over them melted butter and enough boiling water or stock from cooking giblets and neck to moisten. In adding butter and stock, toss the ingredients together lightly with a fork. Never press them together. / If you like onion in dressing, saute one or two slices in a portion of the butter before adding it to the dress ing. For oyster dressing omit giblets, add one pint of oysters cut in half and the oyster liquor, well strained. To make mushroom dressing saute one-half pound mushrooms, sliced, in a portion of the butter and mi* with bread crumbs. In using the mushrooms celery may be omitted or a smaller amount used. Chestnut dressing is usually liked. To make it, prepare one-half pound chestnuts, chopping them rather fine. Mix with bread. Sausage dressing is another favor ite. One-half pound is sufficient for this amount. Cook it over a low fire fifteen minutes before adding to the dressing. For the roast duck or goose you will find this rice and prune stuffing tasty: Brown three tablespoons of finely minced onion in two tablespoons butter. Add one cup well washed, drained rice. Let simmer until rice is slightly browned. Then add four cups soup stock or water in which bouillon cubes have been dissolved, eight or nine cooked prunes, pitted, and one teaspoon salt. Cook over a very low fire or over hot water until rice is tender. Season well. URGED THANKSGIVING '"pRADITION has it that a **■ woman was responsible for establishing the modem Thanks giving day on the last Thursday of November. According to that story, President Lincoln issued his proclamation in answer to urgent pleas from Sarah J. Hale, editor of Godey’s Lady’s Book. "That Yankee Holiday” President Andrew Jackson refused to give Thanksgiving day the cus tomary presidential sanction be cause he would have nothing to do with "that Yankee holiday.” Pioneers Always Prepared for Attacks iH Never was death far from the Seventeenth century pioneers and even into so pastoral a scene as this must the ugly, sinister muzzle of a gun intrude.
