Happy Thanksgiving,

Lucy Elworthy was deep In the mys-
teries OF clear starching, and had a
variety OF charming little collars and
cuffs and other feminine adornments
In lace and muslin, nicely prepared
for the bright smoothing irons that
stood before the clear kitchen fire. II
was raw November day, but there
was a glow upon pretty LHcy's cheek,
and joyous CLEAN In her eye.
Thanksgiving day was coming fast,
and Lucy was already making her
preparations for that happy season
the happiest, she felt sure 1t would be,
that ever she had spent.
She knew OF coy hooks at "granI-
fathers" where there would be sure
to be quiet little talks, and maybe sly
hand-pressures and more caressing
words. Her heart beat quicker, and
her voice trembled little an she
thought who might linger beside her
there. and the words that she might
hear.
Just then her father came In from
the barn, where he had been husking
corn. He looked at Lucy as he en-
tered, and had she not been so occu-
pied with her own happy thoughts
and her delicate work, she might have
seen something peculiar In his glance.
well, mother" he said. addressing
his wife, this is what | call comfort.
It's goldfish out to the barn. But then
it's what we ought 10 expect about
Thanksgiving time. | wish we might
have little snow. We could slip over
to Father Crumbs easy enough then.
Mrs. Elworthy was woman Of few
words, and she only nodded and
smiled, and knit the faster, and Mr..
Elworthy, as II not expecting an an
swer from her, turned to Lucy as he
concluded.
But we shall go anyhow, father"
said the young girl, snow or frost,

FASTING, NOT FEASTING

When John Adams was president
and when war with France seemed
imminent, he issued proclamation.
In view of 1.-The unfriendly disposition,
conduct and demands of foreign
power, evinced by repeated reconsilia-
tion and peace" day was set apart
for fasting, humiliation and prayer.
Nor was this the last day which the
people of the United States were called
upon to celebrate in this humble way,
as Madison issued a similar proclama-
ton in 1914, because OF the war with
Great Britain then in progress. The
following year, however, he called
upon all the people to rejoice on the
second Tuesday in April over the
restoration of peace.

THE MYSTERY or KINGS.

Oh, Turkey Bird of tabled bliss!
read of evil In thy star!
Some son OF truth will some day tell
The facts concerning what you are,
Some strong, firm soul with manly
scorn
For long traditions, wrought Of lies,
With ruthless hand will strip your
fame
And open up the peoples eyes,
He'll call attention to the fact
That superstitions and the clacque
Supply the flavor and the juice
Which you so absolutely lack
Full fearlessly will he expose
The fraud that gives you place and
fame,
And humble well thy full-blown pride,
And bring thy naughty head TO
shame.
He'll show that not another bird
So tasteless is above the ground
And then | doubt II you'll be worth
A half a dozen cents per pound.

HISTORY OF THANKSGIVING.

The earliest record which we have
of an American Thanksgiving day is
found in the New England annals of
1921. In the autumn Of that year
Governor Bradford, so saith the
chronicler, sent out men to procure
some game, in order that the New
England colonists might properly en-
JOY day of thanksgiving in remem-
brance of the fruits Of their labors
during the year that had passed. An
other day of rejoicing was set apart
and "solemnized" as "a day of thanks
giving unto the Lord" after an
: oundant harvest in 1922 1t is stated
that, on this occasion, Massasoit and
his council Of braves were invited to
participate in the festivities, and that
they did so, spending three days in
feasting. Evidently the Indian friends
of the colonists found Thanksgiving
day day to be made the most OF.
these thanksgiving days were not,
however, OF official character. The
first official public Thanksgiving day
was not until the year 1851; and even
this day was not at first intended to
be a day Of rejoicing and thanksgiv-
ing. 1t had been set apart as day
of fasting and prayer for relief. The
eolonists were in great distress; fam
inc was imminent; vessel laden with
provisions, and long at sea, had not
arrived. But just before the day OF
fasting came the ship made port; and
the day was then officially changed
by the authorities from a day OF sor-
row to a day of thanksgiving. This
was the first real Thanksgiving day Of
the Amer lean people.
Thanksgiving days were occasional
" observed also in the New Neither
land after this date. but it was not
until February. 1914, that another Of
fetal Thanksgiving day was proclaim
ed. That year Governor Kieft pro
claimed "a day Of general thanksgiv-
ing" the occasion being the victory
of the colonists over the Indians. At
the conclusion Of peace. in 1915, an
other Thanksgiving day was pro-

A WORD TO GUESTS

Never stare at the carver. Remember
you are invited to dine, not to take
a lesson in carving. Appear perfectly
unconscious Of his efforts; a glance
now and then will give you sufficient
insight into his method. There often
seems TO be an irresistible fascination
about carving which silences all
tongues and draws all eyes to the head
Of the table. The most skillful carver
will sometimes fail IL conscious OF be-
ing watched. With little tact the
hostess can easily engage the atten-
ton of her guests. that the carver may
not be annoyed.

A SEASON OF RECREATION.

Thanksgiving day has long been a
period of social happiness, and one
cannot fail to note a decided tendency
to make 1t a day Of physical recrea-
ton also. Both OF these forms of en-
joyment are valuable and desirable
Perhaps the ideal Thanksgiving day
would be that in which all the actiyi-
ties Of mantle intellectual the
moral the spiritual and the physical
work in harmony for the accomplish
ment of the highest and noblest pur-
poses. The football match and the
cycling contest are features now in
separable from the modern Thanks
giving observance though both sports
were virtually unknown to the fore
fathers

CHOOSING A TURKEY.

In choosing d turkey the age OF the
bird is the principal thing to be at
tended TO. A young gobbler Is best.
He may be distinguished from a hen
turkey by his comb. The age may
be ascertained by the lower part OF
the breastbone; II soft and pliable.
the turkey is young; II stiff, 1t Is old
and Ia not good for roasting. II can
only be used for broiling or braising.
Turkeys Weighing from eight to ten
pounds each are thought best New

THANKFUL FOR SMALL FAV0RS.
In 1888, according to Palfrey, there
was great scarcity OF corn, yet people
lived well with fish and the fruit OF
their gardens" and yet these supplies
insufficient for comfort, were deemed
enough to be thankful for, and In the
proclamation Of Governor Winthrop
calling for "a day OF public thanks

OYSTERS SERVED RAW.

WASH the oysters we'll in cold water,
then have them opened in the deep
shell to preserve their liquor. Cover
the bottom of deep oyster plates with
chopped ice, place the oysters on top
and serve; or put small napkin over
the ice and arrange the oysters on the

oysters for Is minutes on chopped ice,
arrange them without ice on plates
