Most everyone is concerned
about the energy crisis. We’ve
been burning coal for 26 years. At
first, we had a heatrola in the
livingroom and a small stove in
the kitchen. Eventually, we in
stalled baseboard heat and stored
the big square stove in our
summer house. However, the
kitchen range has never been
taken out of the bouse. We always
felt it was insurance against an

stoker-type furnace. We consider
it cheap fuel.
But to get back to that used

potatoes, we decided it was a
good time to sell it. We received

When my husband, two sons
and I went hunting for deer the
first day of the season, the quiet
of the woodland was abruptly
shattered by the very loud noise
of approcaching aircraft.
Just a moment before, I was
using my binoculars to watch a
lone doe browsing nearby. It
nibbled so daintly on leaves and
twigs.
Then a huge helicopter with
two large propellers frightened
her away. This was followed by
another helicopter which came
closer to the tree against which I
was standing. A few seconds later
the third one flew tree-top level,
directly over me.
For some reason, “Vietnam”
was the first thing that popped
into my mind.

There are always two sides to
everything. You might look at our
discarded machinery and say it is
“junk”, or you could give it an
elegant name like “depository of
spare parts.”
Lately we’ve been loading up
some of it and selling it to a
junkyard. However, no one ex
cept us could ever tell that some
had been removed. It just seems
to grow.

Cranberries Are Sassamesh?
Despite her many literary
contributions, the late Gertrude
Stein is perhaps best remem
bered for writing “A rose is a
rose is a rose... ” Like Miss
Stein’s rose, the native American
cranberry by any other name is
still a cranberry even though
some Indians called it
“sassamesh.”
In the nation’s early days, all
Indian tribes in cranberry
producing areas bad their own
words to describe the fruit-but
each name reflected the cran
berry’s naturally acid taste.
“Sassamesh,” for example,
was the Narragansett Indian
word meaning “sharp and
cooling fruit.” Cape Cod’s Pequot
tribe called the cranberry “i
-bimi” which translated to “bitter
fruit.” To the Algonquins in
Wisconsin, the cranberry was
“atoqua,” while the word used by
the Chippewas was “A’nibibim.”
Indians of the Columbia River
region in the Northwest Territory
knew the cranberry as
“soolabich.”
So, regardless of the differing
words, a cranberry “is a cran
berry is a cranberry.”
Cranberries, either fresh or
processed into sauce, or jelly, or
cranberry juice cocktail, are high

on the list of culinary treats
during the Thanksgiving-
Christmas holiday season. And
they blend so well with many of
the dishes traditionally served
during this period.
Cranberries or “sassamesh”-
either way they’re delicious in
mouth-watering treats like
Cranberry Butter. It’s easily
prepared from the fresh berries
and is excellent atop waffles and
pancakes, or as an accent to hot
muffins, biscuits, coffee cakes,
and toast;
2 cups fresh cranberries
I cup sugar
1 cup water
Va cup brown sugar
V« cup butter or margarine
Simmer washed berries in
sugar water until they burst.
Continue cooking the cranberries
until liquid is well thickened, then
stir in brown sugar and butter or
margarine. Serve hot or chilled.
Dress Making Made Easy
Need a new dress in a hurry? If
you have the need, or urge, for a
new dress and time is short, you
can make a garment quickly with
a quality look by following a few
basic principles.
First look for a pattern with
few design details and pattern
pieces. Raglan or kimono sleeves
are faster than set-in sleeves.
Choose a style with facings
rather than bindings- or fancy
collars that may require hand
work. Keep hand work to a
minimum. Pin baste rather than
hand baste, except at intricate
points.
Po asmuch work as you can
while the garment is still in its
flat stage. For example, put
pockets' and trim on the front and
the zipper and trim on the back
joining side trim on the back
before sewing side seams.
Find short cuts that will save
you time in construction. But,
don’t sacrifice quality methods.
Beautiful fabric will compensate
for the simple details of the
garment.

open or close. Then she added
three simple ginger-bread boys
made out of one quarter inch
plywood and measuring about
eight inch by 10% inch.
She used thumbtacks for their
eyes, noses and buttons and pipe
cleaners for their smiles, and
hung them up with rick rack.
Next she added bows which were
made out of strips of unhemmed
calico to several pegs. As a
finishing touch she inserted a few
greens. She suggested hanging
candy canes on the remaining
pegs to give to little holiday
guests. Just imagine what a treat
it would be if the gingerbread
boys were actually cookies! What
a splendid way to say Merry
Christmas!
