NEW YORK (AP)—Cooking the
Thanksgiving turkey la easy.
Carving it—as everyone knows
—is the real art.
When the family has a turkey
dinner in a restaurant, everything
goes according to Hoyle. Every-
one takes the portion dished out
to him without complaint, and no
one questions the chef’s imparti-
ality. judgment or skill.
But when the family has a tur-
key dinner at home, chaos and re-
bellion — murmured or shouted—
reign from the moment the bird
arrives on the table.
The one who reluctantly agrees
to do the carving becomes the
loneliest human being in the
world.
He is one who stands in crisis
ringed by critics. He knows he is
in a situation which he can’t win.
He is bound to give somebody too
much light meat or toe-little dark
meat He endows with a section
of drumstick one who passionately
yearned for a wing.
His technique is also bound to
come under adverse scrutiny.

Those Russians who do otherwise

he sidled up and demanded: "Is
it true all Americans have auto

I nodded and he squinted sus-
piciously. "Then tell me this," he
pursued "Why does Truman have
aggressive designs on the Soviet
Union?"
"Just a minute, I said. "Tru-
man’s not president now Eisen-
hower is."
He gave me a grin and a know
ing wink and said: "Yes but you
know, and I know—Truman’s still
the boss.”
Getting Soft
An obscure news item intrigues us. A first grade
teacher in a new suburban area near a northern i •
dustrial citv is quoted as saying that a new facet of her
educational responsibility is teaching about half of her
new students to walk up and down stairs.
It seems that the surrounding area is largely made
up of one-story ranch houses of modest,cos:. These
children may have been on top of tall buildings via
elevator but never have been above or below groun
under their own power.
We have heard much of the softness that is ours be-
cause of modern living habits, but never have we heard
a more dramatic example than children attending
school to learn the use of stairways The fellow w
used to “walk it off” when hot under the_ collar now
“drives it off,” to the mortal hazard of himself and
countless other motorists. The chairman of the med-
ical division of the former Hoover Commission says
that we are less rugged and more tired than our fathers
who ran. walked, chopped wood, vitched hay.anddid
all of the other physical chores which are so abhorrent
today.
And he says that sitting in an easy chair watching
television is not a way to prolong life for the man
over 40.
“Too much in physique and mentality gets soft in
that process,” says he.
It’s something for all of us to ponder.
Someone suggests,
think you’d better—?
structure of the United Nations.
The Soviet delegaion demanded
that the U. N. Educational, Scienti-
fic and Cultural Organization ab-
olish the past of its director-gen-
eral and substitute a three-mem-
ber executive board, representing
the Communist bloc, the neutrals
and the West.
This proposal was similar to the
one applied to the U N. secre-
tary - general’s office by Premier
Khrushchev during his spectac-
ular show in the U. N Assembly
last month.
The proposal to abolish t h e
secretary-general’s office got lit-
tle support, even from neutralist
nations. But the Russians have
been bringing up the general idea
of three-man directorates time
after time in various committees
and agencies of the world peace
organization.
To broach the idea for UNESCO,
however, would seem to make lit-
tle sense, even for the Kremlin.
UNESCO is supposed to deal with
matters largely outside the frigid
atmosphere of the cold war.
It is difficult to see what the
Russians expect to get out of their
Paris proposal.
What the Russians seem to be
doing is serving notice that noth-
ing can be done toward easing
world tensions by the United Na-
tions as it exists today.
By persisting in their demands,
and applying them in such unlikely
fields as cultural relations among
nations, the Russians fortify the
impression that they hope to
freeze (he cold war permanently
into all U. N. organs This in-
dicates a Soviet presumption that
the cold war cannot and will not
come to an end.
Since the Russians seek to build
into all U. N. organs a paralyzing,
disruptive veto power, it would
seem logical to assume that they
will not work within the world or-
ganization unless they can control
it Lacking much prospect of that
for the present, they seem to want
to stall any effective U.N. opera-
tion.
If the Russians have their way,
this will mean summits, summits
and more summits. The indica-
tions are that they are now gen-
erating the steam for pressure
they intend to bring against the
administration of President-elect
Kennedy to push him into a top-
level meeting in April.
When Sen. Kennedy became the
apparent victor in the U. S. elec-
tions, Khrushchev sent him a mes-
sage saying that "the eyes of many
peovle are fixed on the United
States and the Soviet Union, be-
cause the destinies of world peace
largely depend upon the state of
Soviet-American relations"
This seemed to express the idea
that the only nations which can
attempt to settle world problems
are the USS R and the United
States Should the United States

A Real Need Exists
in Our Own Hospital
THE DENTON Ministerial Association has an excel
lent project under way. and all of us ought to be inter-
ested in it.
Since the expansion at Flow Memorial Hospital, a
room has been provided for use by clergymen in coun-
seling with and praying with families in time of grave
illness and death. However, because of lack of funds,
this room—or interdenominational chapel—has never
been furnished.
The ministerial association, of course, has no mon-
ey with which to furnish the chapel, even though it
is a county-wide project
During Thursday's community Thanksgiving ser-
vice half of the collections taken will go toward start-
ing a fund with which to buy some of the furnishings.
But it is clear that not unless some substantial me-
morial gifts are made, the chapel will not be furnished .
for manv Thanksgivings to come.
The ministerial association has compiled a list of
furnishings, costing a total of $1,290 in all. But brok-
en down, memorial gifts as small as $20 will buy a sin-
glc item. Or funds can be donated toward the pur-
chase of a particular item. The association has recom-
mended the eventual purchase of a $160 worship cen-
ter. a $150 literature table, a dossal drape and hood
for $100 each, a kneeling bench for $75, a cross for
$35. 10 chairs at $50 each, two lamps at $35 each,
two end tables at $30 each and two Bibles at $20 each.
If you as an individual or one of the organizations or
groups you belong to would be interested in helping
to furnish the hospital chapel, you can merely speak
to your own minister or call the ministerial associa-
tion president. Rev. Martin Thomas at First Presbyter-
ian Church, or the ministerial association treasurer
Rev. Warren Flattery at the University Assembly of
God Church.
Anvone who has had any connection with a person
seriously ill in a hospital knows the crying need for a
few minutes of quite meditation or counseling with a
clergyman. In our own city-county hospital, we have
no such facility, except for the space. This is one
project all of us ought to take to heart in this l hanks
giving season.

If the Soviet man-in-the-street
tries, on the basis of what he has
been told officially. to figure out
what happened in the U. S. elec
tion, he is going to be a mighty
bewildered citizen.
Throughout the campaign Ivan's
newspapers told him Sen. John F.
Kennedy and Vice President Rich-
ard M. Nixon were Tweedledee
and Tweedledum. The American
voter, he read, had no choice at
all. Both candidates, said the
Communist press, served exactly
the same interests and had the
same predatory imperialist aims.
Even when it was over, a typ-
cal offical press comment was
that “it is impossible to see with-
out a magnifying glass any
marked difference between the
Republican leader, Nixon and the
Democrat leader, Kennedy."
But then Ivan also was told that
the election was a repudiation of
the Republican party. For Ivan,
there was no explanation of how
the American voters could repu-
diate a policy if there was nc
difference in policies.
Nor did his press attempt to ex-
plain to him why an American
electorate could repudiate a po-
litical party while a Soviet elec-
torate could never hope to do so
'Millions of Americans,” Mos-
cow radio told its home audiences,
"have given their reply to the
arms race, to military provoca-
tion and to the aggravation of the
cold war which was the founda
tion of the Eisenhower adminis-
tration policy ”
The election, continued the
broadcaster, expressed the peo-
pie's "profound disapproval of the
political course of the U. S. gov-
ernment."
Puzzled Ivan may have won
dered:
How come Americans get to ex
press profound disapproval of
their government? Could Ivan da
likewise’ And if both Democrats
and Republicans represent "big
monopoly capital,” how can the
American people repudiate an
arms race by electing one or the
other?
If both parties are, as the press
has fold Ivan. incurably imperial
ist, how can Comrade Khrushchev
expect President Kennedy will
represent "the people” any more
than President Eisenhower did?
Wasn’t President Eisenhower
once described by Comrade Khru
schev as a man of peace’ And
when President Eisenhower sue
ceeded President Truman, who
until then had been the main devil
in the Soviet press, didn't Ivan
read that the Americans elected
a Republican as a repudiation of
the Democrats and of warmonger
ing and arms-racing?
If an imperialist president is
such a menacing dictator, oppres-
sing the American people, how
come they can remove him’
Ivan tends to shrug his shoul
administration. It indicates a
long-range, back-door attack to
divide the United States from its
North Atlantic allies.

further the Soviet attack on the

Here are some types of turkey
carvers you’ve probably seen
yourself at family Thanksgiving
Day dinners:
1. The Poor Workman—He al-
ways begins by blaming his tools.
“This knife isn't sharp enough,"
he says, “and this knife has too
long a blade. This knife doesn’t
have enough tensile strength. This
knife doesn—.“
2. The Brusque Matriarch—“Oh,
give me that knife before you cut
yourself," she says as her hapless
husband makes a first tentative
thrust. She slices and serves with
bold confidence, knowing the
guests cannot cavil too loudly at
the cook,
3. The Malicious Prankster —
He solicitouosly inquires from each
guest what part of the turkey he
likes best—then gives him some-
thing else. This gagster enjoys
his little joke, but next Thanks-
giving hell be eating somewhere
else.
4. The Cautious Husband—"My
dear, you do the honors," he says,
handing the knife to his mother-
in-law, and knowing then he is
safe from all further blame. This
guy is the kind of diplomat the
United Nations needs.
5. The Showman—He tells a few
wisecracks, does a soft shoe dance
around the table, then wildly wav-
ing the knife like Cyrano de Ber-
gerac dueling against a dozen, he
charges against the turkey—and
it slides off on the floor. Exit ac-
tor.
6. The Artful Host—He invites
a brain surgeon as guest, plies
him with three quick martinis,
then, when the turkey is ready,
extends the knife and says, "Okay,
doc, the patient is ready.”
In any case, whoever he is. the
carver is the real hero of any
family Thanksgiving feast He is
the one who always gets the bird.

Turkey and cranberries are

now, but they weren't on the
menu when the Pilgrims and In-
