* FRIDAY DECEMBER 26, 1962 THE NEWBERRY SUN Roast Turkey Is a Taste - ing Feast ■ : %xk c f i 1 i f BY DOROTHY MADDOX' uHKEYS are more plentiful now than they have ever been before. *** And for parties and holidays, there is nothing quite so festive. To preserve fine flavor and assure best results: (1) Keep a quick- frozen, ready-to-cook bird frozen until ready to cook, allowing time for defrosting. Defrosting will take 2 to 3 days in the refrigerator, or 4 to 6 hours with the unwrapped bird under running cool water. (2) Remove any pinfeathers with strawberry huller or tweezers. If necessary, singe the bird. Remove any bits of lung and kidney from the cavity. Stuff the turkey just before roasting. Fill with stuffing, shaking the bird gently to settle it, but do not pack it lest it emerge after roasting in a solid, compact mass. Close the opening by placing skewers across the opening and lacing shut with cord. Cover with cheesecloth. Roast in a shallow open pan with rack. No cover and no water. The oven temperature. "Low and slow" is the rule. Low tem perature means less shrinkage and loss of juices, better flavor and appearance. At a constant low temperature of 325 degrees F. the turkey needs little or no attention. If the cheesecloth dries, spoon fat over it from bottom of the roasting pan or remove and remoisten with melted fat. Start the bird about a half hour ahead of schedule. It may take a little longer time than is given in (he timetable. When is the turkey done? To judge doneness, test 15 to 30 minutes before turkey should be finished. Press the thickest part of the drumstick, protecting fingers with cloth or paper. It should feel soft.

To a small girl, a doll is something that says “mama” when turned upside down. In theatrical parlance, a doll is a pretty girl. In Switzerland, how ever, a doll means one of Jaquet- Dorz’ automatons. T Pierre Jaquet-Dorz was a watch maker in a small village in the French part of Switzerland and, being a watchmaker and mechanic, it was not unusual to see him making cogs, wheels and other mechanisms. What was unusual, was what he and his son did with some of these tiny parts. They made the working parts for life like dolls. People of the present day get excited about robots, but away back in 1774 Jaquet-Dorz created three life-like dolls that even now function perfectly. Named The Writer, The Musician and The Artist, the three beautifully-dress ed dolls perform tasks of such pro fessionals. The Writer, using' a nicely-cqrv- ed plume as was customary in the 18th century, sits at her desk and writes in various languages. The Musician plays a small piano, and Thh Artist draws dif ferent pictures. Their "brains” are the intricate and delicate mech anisms Jaquet-Dorz concealed in their bodies. Small parts have worn out in past years, but have been replaced • successfully by master watchmakers. The dolls have been on exhibi tion since 19Q9 at the Museum of Natural History ai Neuchatel, Switzerland. Professor Edmond Droz (no relation to the maker) is the only one allowed to touch the dolls, and he makes them work only one Sunday each month. It is interesting that automatons have been made by many peoples all over the world. The Chinese were making them centuries ago, and the Greeks and Arabs also have made them, so it seems that man’s desire to recreate in his own image is nothing new. But it’s exciting to contemplate that the dolls showp here, through ap proximately two centuries old, and made and assembled by hand, still outperform many that are made today. NEW CLOTH CALLED LISBON ABBEVILLE, Dec. 13—Lisbon, the newest name in fabrics and made exclusively in the Abbeville Mills, here, is attracting the na tion’s cloth trade, one a huge na tional soft goods chain. \ This product of Abbeville people is the latest in a series of Deer- ing Millikens fabrics which in cludes Milium and Lorette. Formerly this mill made woolen piece goods but now it is in man made fibers, yarns through dye to cloth. As R. C. Edwards, general manager, expressed it “from yarns to cutting table ready for the needle.” Lisbon is 45 to 60 inches wide, according to its use. Presently, suiting colors are coming off the looms, salt and pepper shades half inch checks and herringbone ef fects lead the winter way before spring sports colors take over. Lisbon was born in the Abbeville Mills and received its New York approved standard less than one month ago. After the material is woven, inspection takes place on well lighted frames by Abbeville women with keen eyesight. It is tqken to the finishing department where “the feel” is added. It is interesting to note that mill work ers who handle various trade nam ed staple fiber cloth, cannot tell the difference before they are fin ' ished, but must look on the large white ticket attached to the bolt and read its proportions of fibers before stating its name. Lisbon is a worsted lil^e popu lar priced washable fabric created bv Deering Milliken it blends 4? percent Vlscbse with its silky lus ter, porous and absorbent qualities, which make it comfortable next to the skin, and 52 percent Acrilan, which is quick drying, durable, non-stretching, water repellent aqd mildew as well as moth proof yarn. You are well acquainted with Vis cose or rayon but Acrilan is quite new, being produced from natural gas and air by Chemstrand, De catur, Ala. on a 700 acre plant site. Meanwhile construction is progres sing on schedule for Chemstrand’s new plant 12 miles north of Pensa cola, Fla., on a 200 acre tract. You will be seeing the name Lis bon on dresses marked on an or chid, white and gray cardboard proclaiming its qualities and a folding tag colored orange, gray and white for coats and suits - made in Abbeville for the nation’s fabric trade. Lisbon is the ideal material for traveling, for it is light weight, washes and dries quickly. Yo> could have two suits or one suit and one top coat in place of the old fashioned single suit or a pleat ed skirt which would stay in place. .
