Gather round ye masters of th
Chr istmns dinner tab)e. Uncle Sai
will teach you a lesson:
The government has issued an o
ficia) bulletin on the proper tec!
nique for carving the Christmas tui
key.
The bulletin rules on such impoi
tant problems as whether the fi
ther should stand or sit while d<
ing the honors and the position of th
turkey on the platter. All you hav
to do is read this, and carving th
festive bird will be a lead-pipe cinel
"The turkey rides on the piatU
back down," says the bureau ?
home economics. "The first prol
Ike most important?
rule is to keep &tc?
'/ 071 tkep/^terr
lem is father's: Should he stand c
sit while carving?"
There are two schools of tnougV
Oil this subject, and the governmer
grants father his constitutions
rights to do as he pleases. But i
is suggested, after deliberation, tha
a short person had best stand and
tall person should sit for the mos
.effective work. Are vou short o
tall?
The next problem, says the bulk
tin, is the point of attack. It i
here that many a head of a house
the bureau believes, has lost th
Christmas spirit through ignoranc
or awkwardness?cr just plain stub
bornness.
Only a lew simple rules need b
followed The most important, c
course, is to keep the bird on th
platter, because it's rather difficul
to work on the floor. Also, the bu
jenu estimates, a bird on the plat
itr is worth two on the tablecloth
"First," the bureau raid, "remov
the leg from the body hv graspini
'it in your left hand (but what i
+
Rei
\
?i you're left handed?) and cutting J
straight down to the hip joint. Remove
the wings and the other leg
"Then place the fork squarely
across the orvastbone toward the
end of the keel, to anchor the bird :
while you carve the breast in slices: 1
_ using a slightly sawing motion."
ie If you don't like the shape of your |
n 1 turkey, or the distribution of dark |
I and white meat, wcil?why not have
your wife carve in the first place? i
