There was . Feast Of ThaHks2ivins
From Time Immemorfal.
Thanksgiving Day is not an Ameri-
can idea Ages and ages ago in en-
pires long since fallen one day of each
year was set apart for thanksgiving to
the Create IN this country it was
not observed in the West and South
tn after the war. but in New England
it may be said to date from the middle
of the seventeenth century. Over
5000 years ago Moses instructed the
lsrealites to keep feast after they got
established in the Holy Land. They
called 1t the feast Of the T beynacle,
and for eight days, following the close
of the harvest, they dwelt in booths
made chiefly OF green boughs, and
toasted on corn, wine, oil and fruits
In the course OF time a splendid ritual
for the feast Was adopted, including
much singing in responsive choruses
Somewhat later the Greeks held
nine days feast of similar character
In which slaves were allowed to take
part, and all criminals except mur.
derers The Romans had similar
fenst in honor of Ceres, goddess of
grain.
The saxons had "Har. est Home
and after them 1Le English, hich ies-
ti-al was obser .ed In q sort of way in
some of the American colonies.
In the year 1ioI the Pilgrim fathers
tried to celebrate, but it was rather a
gloomy affair. in 16e3 ship loaded
with provisions failed to arrive and
Cos. Bradford appointed day of hui
initiation fasting and prayer. but the
expected ship arrived and so they made
it a day of thanksgiving.
Ninety Ind ans, under Chief Massa-
soft, took part In 1861 the Puritans
ran ont of provisions, and Feb wus
named as day of fasting and prayer.
As in the other case. the ship arrived,
and they had a feast instead Jrne Is,
1887, there was q general service in all
churches of New England. to give
thanks for the great victory at Fort
Mystic over the Peiuots, and on the
,2th of October following a general
service and feast in homer OF peace
and the settling of some religious diff
ferences.
Forty years later Gov Andres
the people to give thanks on
the first day of Dccembe- but they
hated Andros and didn thank worth
q cent. Several persons were arrested
for treating the proclaim icn with
but this struck the home
as rather !udicrou>, ami his
conduct was d.sarpro cd.
Thereafter thanksgiving was pretty
observed In nll England and
The States settled by her, the governor
naming the day.
George Washington recommended to
Congress the nam .ng OF a National day
In 1859, tor the adoption of the consti-
stitution. 1t was done and the day
was generally observed. In 1873 the
proceeding was repeated. James
Madison appears to have issued the
first Presidential proclamation on the
subject, in 1915. in honor of the return
Of peace, Forty-eight years passed he

ond one, in 1863. Since then every
President has followed the custom and

Keeping the House Warm.

How to keep the home warm is often
as trying problem to the homemaker as
the summer task of keeping her kingdom
cool Especially is this true in our north
ern and northwestern states, where bit
ing cold-healthy though the crisp at
mosphere may be-gets into the home in
spite of glowing furnace or overworked
stoves. The windows are loose, the doors
cape at their sides and bottoms, and the
bleak wind sweeps in. While it is nee
essary to have ventilation in our homes,
and few houses are built satisfactorily in
this respest, yet it is scarcely wise to
have every easement so loose that no one
can safely sit within three feet of it, or
to allow every door to be so short that
cold air pours continually on the feet.
Care should be taken to remedy this, es-
pecially on the northern and western
sides of the house. Rubber weather
strips, which are fastened on with little
brads and can be quickly removed, are
an improvement on the strips of rubber
and wood formerly used, and are made
in different widths, from a quarter of an
inch to two inches, selling by the foot
