THE FAMOUS PUMfhlN flh'
60 n was THANKSGIVING instead of day of
nensnce that came down to us from the Pu-
rpItans and ali hecnuse Of the CHEEKY op-
timism of a gentle Christian woman. In
SHRED by her ntterances, Governor Bradford
arose ana in the gallant language of the
Jav comnlimented her on her brave heart
and said that it would not do for them to
he ashamed of n woman and the young men
and hint nm game and wild turkeys to grace
the ThonksgIying feast. And that Is how
we came to have Thanksgiving and turkey
together. Pumpkin pie Is also one of the |
