Girl Scouts Implored to Assist Poor Mrs. Herbert Hoover, honorary president of the national organization of Girl Scouts, has issued an appeal to the Girl Scout organizations over the United States to do its share in aiding families suffering from business conditions. Scouts are urged to do all”possible in the provision of Thanksgiving charity for needy families. Mrs. Hoover has urged the scouts thus to live up to their motto, “Be Prepared.” In all large cities, including Indianapolis, various branches of the organization are contributing food and clothing to agencies for distribution, and in some cases are caring for cases independently. In some communities Girl Scout troops have given their time and energy for the distribution of milk for infants and young mothers, and in others they help by distributing the food, collected by relief agencies to families unable to call for it. In the solicitation of food and clothing the scouts are not permitted to call upon strangers, but are restricted to their own circle of friends. They work, always, in cooperation with their own leaders.

—WHAT’S IN FASHION?—
Velvet Dresses With Simple Bodice Directed By AMOS PARRISH
NEW YORK, Nov. 21.—Now that the experts have started publishing their books on the new official contract system, we everyday players can find out what all the arguments were about. And doubtless we'll go on playing in our same old "guess and be sorry” fashion. But at least the women contract players—experts and tryros—agree on one thing, that the new velvet bridge dresses are the smartest things they’ve worn in a long time. They approve the simplicity of the
EW YORK, Nov. 21.—Now that lace or a decorative clip that 5 a simple draping flat. M / id they like the intricacy of the \S
bodice even while they bewail the necessity of learning new rules. The unornamented bodice and plain neckline which the most fashionable of these new dresses has are the perfect background for a lovely necklace or a decorative clip that holds a simple draping flat. And they like the intricacy of the new sleeves though they may deplore the complexities of the new bidding. Because arms are so active in bridge, they’re bound to be noticed. And the sleeves of these new velvet dresses are worth noticing. Sometimes they’re long . . . and sometimes elbow length. And there are many puffs in evidence. Puffs at the elbow. Puffs at the wrist. Often two or three of them grouped together. Embroidered cuffs are new and decorative, especially when the embroidery is of Persian type. Black takes highest velvet honors. But the “stained glass window” colors . . . wine, green, sapphire ... are more unusual. And of course you wear them at lower calf length. Thanksgiving next Thursday! And then Christmas —and Christmas presents. A gift for the whole family may possibly scratch three or four names off the list at one happy stroke! A framed picture, chosen with good taste for a particular room, is a fine gift. Write Amos Parrish, care of The Times for his story on what pictures go together.

Game Makes Tasty Meals These Days BY SISTER MARY NBA Service Writer Game of various sorts is in keeping for Thanksgiving time and may even grace the Thanksgiving feast. Game birds especially have a season in most states and are available in the markets. Rabbits and squirrels are common game foods and can be cooked In many ways. Fricassee, stew, pie and roast all are popular and easy to prepare. Venison, properly cooked, is one of the most delicious of the wild meats. Very easily digested, it is a particularly suitable food for the convalescent. Although newly-killed deer has a sweet flavor it is quite tough and must be allowed to hang from one to two weeks before cutting into joints and steaks. This is known as “ripening” and is the way all beef is.treated in order to make it tender. The meat of course must be kept in a very cold place. Loin Is Choicest In selecting a cut, the saddle or loin is considered the choicest of all. Plenty of fat is an indication of good quality, in fact, it can hardly be too fat. The saddle usually is roasted and should be cooked rare. The haunch also is often roasted, but it usually is liked well done. Steak should be cut about half an inch thick and is cooked like beef steak—broiled, pan-broiled or fried. It is preferred rare. Any cut of venison is improved if allowed to stand in a marinade of oil and vinegar for several hours or over night before cooking. Currant jelly is traditional to serve with venison. It is often used for basting a roast and is added to a delicious sauce to serve with steak. Requires Different Methods The cooking of venison requires different methods than for ordinary meats. Either a saddle or haunch should be larded or rubbed with melted butter before putting in the oven. After it has been in the oven for about half an hour the heat should be reduced and the time calculated from this point. Allow twenty minutes to the pound. Thus a four-pound roast would need one hour and fifty minutes for roasting. Game birds are cooked in a number of ways and while they are usually liked rare, care should be taken that they are not too rare. The smaller-sized ones are broiled, either whole or in halves, and served on toast. The' larger ones are roasted like young chickens and served in much the same way. Os course, any size can be disjointed or cut in halves and cooked encasserole. Removed Before Serving The usual savory stuffing used for domestic fowls is not liked in game birds. An onion, apple, a few uncooked cranberries, celery and butter —any of these materials is dropped inside the bird before roasting to give flavor and richness. The onion or apple or whatever is used is not eaten but is removed before serving. Guinea hen, although not a game bird, has a “gamey” flavor and is roasted like pheasant. An onion, a few stalks of celery and two or three tablespoons butter dropped inside either guinea fowl or pheasant before roasting gives a delicious flavor. The stuffing is not served. The slightly fishy taste common to wild ducks can be overcome by rubbing them with a cut onion and putting a few uncooked cranberries in each duck when roasting. Wild rice is an excellent dish to serve with wild duck. Hanging Curtains Curtains hung from the top of the window to the floor make a room look much higher than those which stop at the bottom of the window. Evaporated Milk If you take evaporated milk out of the can and keep it in glass jars, it will stay fresh much longer. Girls' Society to Meet Girls’ Friendly society of Christ Episcopal church will meet at 6 Tuesday for dinner at the parish house. Mrs. George Macey is chairman of classes being organized for the winter.

M U K CHRISTIAN SCIENCE THEME ANNOUNCED “Soul and Body’” is the subject of the lesson-sermon in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, on Sunday, Nov. 22. Among the citations which comprise the lesson-sermon is the following from the Bible: “I beseech you, therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another” ißemans 12: 1,2, 4,5). The lesson-sermon also includes the following passages from the Christian Science textbook, “Science and Health With Key to the Scriptures,” by Mary Baker Eddy: “If Spirit were in matter, God would have no representative, and matter would be identical with God. The theory that soul, spirit, intelligence, inhabits matter is taught by the schools. This theory is unscientific. The universe reflects and expresses the divine substance or Mind; therefore God is seen only in the spiritual universe and spiritual man, as the sun is seen in the ray of light which goes out from it.” * u u THANK OFFERING WILL BE TAKEN “Receiving and Thanksgiving” will be the sermon topic at the St. Paul’s Reformed church by the Rev.

IT'S POSSIBLE TO GET LOST INSIDE AKBON Monster Ship Is a City in Itself; You Could Never Get Bored. Thi ia tha arcoed of a at Has of articles desorlbiiMr the interior and workinn •f the new nary dirlclbte Akron. BY ERNIE PYLE Soripps-Haward Aviation Editor WASHINGTON, Nov. 21,-Once inside the hull of the U. S. 8. Akron, you are In a self-sustaining little city. You could live in it for months, without ever coming out, and probably not even get bored. You could explore it for a week, and still find new things. There are lots of places to go. It is even possible to get lost inside the thing. Like a steamship, it has companionways running to every nook and cranny. Only they are ik* really companionwavs. They are catwalks, nine inches wide, and you have to be careful. If you fell off you might plunge right through the fabric and on out into the big outdoors. Many persons have inquired whether the crew actually rides inside the dirigible. Yes. In fact, everything is inside the dirigible, except the control car, which protrudes from the bottom of the ship. And only a few’ men are there, on watch. Finished for Living There are three little “communities” inside the Akron. These communities are finished for living, as one would speak of the interior of a house being finished. The rest of the ship is like a building’s attic, filled only with gas bags, machinery and empty space. One of these communities is just above the control car, on the floor of the airship’s frame. The other two are back and over . . . one on each side of the ship’s curved hull, about a third of the way up. The community above the control tower consists of seven rooms; three on each side of a hallw’ay, and one at the end. The room at the end is a photographic dark room. On the right side of the hallway is a room with four bunks for officers, next comes one with two bunks, and next the skipper’s private stateroom. On the other side of the hall is a radio room, a weather bureau room and an office. These rooms are about the size of a steamship’s stateroom, and are finished nicely. The Crew’s Quarters From this community one walks up steps toward the ship’s side until he reaches the long catwalk which runs the full length of the dirigible on either side, just inside the fabric covering. He turns aft, walks about 100 feet, goes back down a flight of steps, and enters another community—the crew’s quarters. This consists of eight rooms in a row. There are two double-deck aluminum beds In each room. Canvas is stretched tightly across the bottom of each bed. There are no sheets or blankets. On each bunk is a heavy fur-lined sleeping bag. When the boys come off watch they undress and crawl into their sleeping bags. But they don’t really need such protection, for the rooms are well heated. It Has No Baths At the end of the row of rooms is a large washroom, with four lavatories, mirrors above them. There are no baths. Paper towels are used. All rooms are 8 by 10 feet. Running in front of this row of rooms is a sort of promenade deck, about three feet wide. Its outer margin joins the outside hull of the dirigible, and slopes upward. Large windows are set in this wall. The sailors can lie in their bunks, pull back the curtain at the door, and look down through the nearly horizontal window at the earth far below. The “community” on the opposite side of the dirigible is half composed of additional crew’s quarters —four staterooms and a washroom. The other half consists of the messrooms and galley. There is a separate dining room each for the officers, the chief petty officers and the enlisted men. There is one large table in each room, seating eight men. Two white-suit-ed Tilipino mess boys serve. Burns Fopane Gas The galley is twice as large as the ordinary apartment kitchen, and has gas ranges, burning popane gas, electrical toasters, refrigerator and so on. As the Akron sometimes stays up for days at a time, its crew is fed full, appetizing meals, with dessert and everything. There is no sandwich and cocoa-cola diet on the Akron. - All chairs and tables are made of aluminum. You can pick a chair up with one finger. Even the “silverware” is aluminum. The men eat off paper plates, but the serving dishes are of light, unbreakable beetleware.
