Today as I looked out, not quite awake from my night's sleep, it looked at first glance as if we had a covering of snow. But, no, the last thing I remembered as I rolled over to sleep was the wonder of the silvery moon that spread its light over our world. Snow will come but not this week. Yet it has snowed on Thanksgiving for I re- member as a boy a snowy Thanksgiving din- ner out on my Dad's big glass - enclosed porch. It was the largest place in the house to eat and having all the relatives over we needed the room. It was usually chilly and often a drafty spot but it had to be pressed into use on such occasions. How the single - pane windows sweat with all those hot foods and people warming up the inside. Those were wonderful times. A big turkey, all brown and steaming sat at the head of the table. Mom's best dishes, silver and cut -glass were neatly set at each place around the table which usually had ad- ditions of card tables to lengthen it for the kids at one end and a picnic table, if needed, at the other. Chairs were of every size and shape and often old outside picnic benches were even brought into use if there was an overflow crowd. Cider was always served in those still -used tall cut -glass goblets. Of course, Thanksgiving dinner wouldn't be Thanksgiving dinner without the mashed potatoes, Brussels sprouts, turnips, which as a kid I hated and today love, the cauliflower with its cheese sauce and, of course, in our home, creamed onions. They were my Dad's delight. I think he could have made a meal of just creamed onions and been satisfied. The turkey stuffing always seemed to be bur- sting out of the turkey and that was my spe- cialty. Probably it was that stuffing that to this day makes me a true lover of this tasty part of Thanksgiving dinner. Roast Turkey, What a Sight! On thing I do know is that the gravy seemed to make everything just right. I could even get a bit of the turnip down if it had enough gravy on it. As I recall the smooth, thick gravy started out in the big, old roast- ing pan that the turkey was cooked in. The turkey was set aside on a huge platter where we kids could see it and hardly contain our- selves tit the meal began. Then Mom would stir in some of her ingredients, never mea- suring, to make the gravy, until it was just right. When that was all finished to her sat- isfaction, ground up giblets were put in part of it. We always had two kinds of gravy: one with giblets and one without.

The frost that had whitened the back pas- ture this morning and put a thin covering of ice in the birdbath had to be explored, so af- ter feeding the chickens, the dog and I took a walk up back through the garden that now looks quite winterized. Except for the green grass walkway and the lush of the still -green carrot tops and the robust deep - maroon chard, most things have browned with the cold winds that we've had lately. A few of the raspberry canes still cling to some withered berries and leaves but most have given up and stand naked reminding me of what a wonderful producer they have been. It is when our grandchildren come to the garden to pick and enjoy their sweetness that they really serve their purpose. Last Rose of Summer One last rose has tried to hold its shape and color through the cold. A red rose. I'd pick the gallant bud in hopes that on my wife's windowsill it will be able to revive itself and fulfill its mission of beauty. Through the or- chard, past the beehives with their now- huddled masses all clinging to each other to keep warm, then on out into the pasture that's been mowed by the grazing cows. By now my shoe tips have a coating of ice crystals that have been picked up along my walk. The dog has to sniff and check every- thing along the way. He stops, his front foot is lifted as if to protect it from the frosty ground. I bend over and pick a blade of grass and look into a wonder world of glassy white. All along its stem are a thousand hairs of frost, each with its own array of frills; a fairy land in miniature that most of us pass in our busy world. Most will grumble about the cold and the weather and yet there are wonders to be seen. Down by the pond I'm surprised to see no ice has formed as yet. The bird bath had its coating of ice, why not the pond? A bit of re- asoning and I come to the conclusion that the ground has not yet cooled off and is holding the heat of days gone by, thereby keeping the water from freezing. Perhaps this is why the cows are down in the hollow near the pond. No Matador Bulls These Cows Here they come from around the rose bushes that grow along the northeast edge of the pond. They stop and stare at me wond- ering what I'm doing out so early in the morning. Huge bellows of steam pour out of each side of their gaping nostrils. I could see how an imaginative artist would paint the raging bulls as the matador skillfully enti- ces the bull into a rage. These were no me t- ador bulls, they were just two gentle cows and a young heifer born just a few months ago standing there dolefully staring at me. By now the sun was above the trees and the warmth of its rays were starting to steal the frost away. A dozen or more mourning doves sat high in a tree to catch the first rays of the day's sun. They, too, were chilled by the frost and wanted once again to reap the life- giving warmth of the sun. In an hour or so the frosty show would be over. Those who rose late had missed the first showing but then there would be others. To me the first frosts of fall are the most spectacular for they still have the moisture of life all about them to cling to. Winter's dry- ness has not yet taken over so there is still time to get in on the second act. It will be worth it but it does mean an early rise on the next frosty morning before the sun warms the air and puts our world back the way it was before the frost arrived.

About 250 people attended the showing and reception on Friday evening and hundreds more viewed the art works during the weekend, according to Village Clerk George A. Andrews, one of the founders of the artists' group. The group, called Southampton Artists, was formed about a year and a half ago, and now has about 90 members, Mr. Andrews said.
