A THANKSGIVING
RECOLLECTION.

AS [ sit and ponder over the
queer freaks that fate has cut in
my life, there rises before me the
ghost of a long ago Thanksgiving,
when hope was high and I faced
the world with a strong heart.
It was an ideal Thanksgiving
Day; cool and crisp, with enough
snow to make sleighing good. To
get up an appetite for the turkey
and mince pie that was to grace
the festive board at dinner. I
determined to 60 skating for
couple of hours.
[ called on-well let us call her
Miss b, and we were soon
skimming across the smooth ice
enjoying a sport which has few
equals to a lover of fresh air and
vigorous exercise.
Miss b and [ were very
good friends; in fact, / for one,
wished for a closer tie, and as l
watched her glide gracefully over
the ice l determined to put my
fate to the test But alas and
alack, we little know what the
gods have in store for us.
We skated together GRANVILLE and
then separated for a spin around
the lake each taking opposite
directions. There were several
places on the ice marked danger
ous' and some of the younger
boys and girls amused themselves
by skating as near as they could
to hear the ice crack and then
starting quickly away. This had
weakened the ice in several
places, and as Miss b was
skating within what she thought
safe distance of danger, the ice
gave way and she went through.
The water was shallow at this
point and she was in no danger
except from the cold. but before I
could reach her one of the bows
had helped her out and by the
time L came up, almost scared to
death, she was safe, but in a rather
wet and bedraggled condition.
L don't know yet what came
over me, but as I fastened her to
the bank and while removing her
skates I asked her to be mine
What did she say? Well by all
rules she should have said syes''
but she didn't. What she did saw
was: why didn't YOU help me
out?' with special emphasis on
the you.
l tried to explain but she
wouldn't have it that way. l have
never had the courage to pop the
question" to anyone since.

TURKEY TIME.

Thou Turkey
Plumed bird of fame!
Thy day is near, and the eagle
Is not in it.
Rare fowl! Rarest when we'll cooked!
Thou art of all the feathered kind
The richest and the juiciest-
According to thy age.
Within thy feathered breast
What wealth of mingled flavors
Tempts the iaded appetite!
Thou scatterest thy odors
Through the house and dost merit
The basting that the flushed
Domestic in the kitchen
Giveth thee.
Harken, Swelled and pu1fed-up fowl!
On thy day
Thou art
Going to get
The stuffing
Everlastingly
Jerked out of thee!
By gravy!
