EARLY 1HAnkseIvlnes
As Founded by the Puritan Fathers-Th
High nrieaf Of All FeafIrnIa-

High Priest of ALI Festivals,
Perhaps Of the thousands who duly OBJ
serve the day. there are many who do not
stop 10 think of the r-Itiquity Of Thanksgiv-
ing, OF Of the manner in which il was OBJ
served in the old Colonial days. Writing
on this subject. Harrie. Beecher Stowe
says:
sour good Puritan fathers intended to-
form a state Of society Of such equality Of
conditions, and " make the means Of Sc
curing the goods OF life free 10 all, that
every body should fad employment for his
faculties in a prosperous seeking of his
fortunes. Hence, while they forbade thea
tiers, operas and dances, they made state
OF unparalleled peace and prosperity, where
Que could go TO sleep at all hours Of the day
or night with the house-dOor wide open,
without bolt or bar, yet without apprehen-
sion Of any TO modest or make afraid.
THE Fourth Of July took high rank after
the Declaration OF Independence, but tho
king and high priest Of all festivals was
Ike autumn Thanksgiving.
"Whcn the apples Wen all gathered and
the cider was all made and the yellow
pumpkins were rolled in from many hill
in pillows Of gold, and the corn was huslzed,
and the labOrs OF the season were done,
and the warm, late days of Indian summer
carse in dreamy and calm and still, there
came over the community a sort Of genial
repoJe OF spirit, sense Of something ac-
compiished and Of new golden mask made
in advance on the calendar Of life.
"In those days there were mono of the
thousand ameliordtions Of the labors of
Housekeeping which have since arisen, no
ground and prepared spices and sweet
herbs; every thing came into our hands in
the rough and in bulk, and the reducing Of
il into state for use was deemed one OF
the appro pirate labors OF childhood. Even
the salt we used in cook ng was roclS-salt,
which we were required u wash and dry
and pound and sift before 1t became fit for
use.
Great "a was the preparations for din
ner, everything was so contrived that not
u soal in the house should be kept from the
morning service of Thanksgiving in the
,a,rch, and from listening to the Than6s-
giving sermon, in which the minister was
expected TO express his views freely con-
corning the politics OF tho country aud the
state o: him ~o''n.v in general"
