AMERICAN GIRLS THANKSGIVING

alone; kick that sends the oval soar
ing gloriously through space in the d1-
rection Of the coveted posts is accom-
panied by feeling of joyful anticipation
because the owner of the foot knows
that somewhere anNng the crowd OF
spectators one pair of eyes watches the
progress OF the ball with fluttering
heart. What nonsense to think that the
perspiring heroes Struggle for the SUI
premacy of their college. They run and
tackle and kick and bleed for the honor
of theAmerican girl who has their hearts
in keeping, and no one knows 1t better
than she.
But If the American girl will shine
where healthful sport Is the program.
she will positively glow around the fes.
tive board and In the social circles next
Thursday. The thought Of q festival
without her is too gloomy q prospect to
be entertained. If the frost-brightened
features of the outdoor girl have their
peculiar charm there is another and an
I especial attractiveness surrounding the
| indoor girl who, daintily attired in shim-
| mering loveliness presides at the
Thanksgiving table and adds grace and
| beauty to the home. Compared to her,
the Thanksgiving bird is a sorry delu-
| sion in spite of the hold he has on the
hearts of the citizens. If the American
! girl has herself cause for thankfufness,
1t is q small matter in comparison with
the gratitude that should be entertained
by the male half Of humanity towards
the shaper of our destinies that she Is
with us to heighten the brightness of the
day. She Is worthy theme for poets
and a fitting topic for the orators of the
day. Let poets summon the muse and
orators tax their vocabulary to the ut
most and do full justice to worthy
subject-the Thanksgiving day girl Of
1897.
Poets and orators, however, must not
be allowed to monopolize the Thanks
| giving day girl. Has she not come to
the front in art so that her male compete
tors are beginning to fear for their lau-
rels? Then what so fitting as that the
best artists of America should take their
drawing boards and portray indelibly
their idea Of the American girl.
The idea has been taken up with vim
and enthusiasm by the artists, as the
accompanying illustration will show. No
one will question the truth of the state
ment that 1t is the finest thing in news
paper illustration ever printed in this
city or state. Each type Of girl was
drawn by leading newspaper illustra-
tor. and, with such a subject for their
pen, 1t is not to be wondered at that
the artists have surpassed themselves.
This galaxy of the ideal Of American ar
lists who have portrayed the American
girl, showing her in characteristic poses,
is worthy of chief place among the ma
tional tributes Of the day. Like the sub
ject, it is beautiful, it Is natural, it is
unaffectedly bewitching. But the Amer
lean girl needs no art to add to her at
tractiveness, and no artist to contend
for her right to first place in the hearts
Of the people of America. She has all
that and a good deal more, and every one
Is glad that 1t is so.
