There are probably good many peo-

Thanksgiving day had it's origin in

prolific in turkeys and pumpkins. There

they cannot enjoy dinner on that day

edge on their appetites. Cold weather.

" HORTLY before
Thanksgiving Mr..
Slawson Won tur-
key at a rattle and
l. ~ brought it home to
fatten for the coming
festival. The entire
household followed him to the back
yard, where he tied the bird by one leg
to a clothes post and proceeded to build
small coop in the fence corner. While
,the rest of the family stood around
hindering Mr.. Slawson's work by max
ing suggestions and by laughing at him
when he struck his thumb with the
hammer, the two boys, Fred and Rob-
bic, were engaged in making the ac-
quaintance of the turkey. Robbie. the
younger, was for naming him Dan, aft
er the grocer's boy who took him for
rides, but Fred stoutly maintained that
the honor would better befit Uncle
George, who had red whiskers. Mr..
Slawson settled the matter by saying,
with q wink at his wife, that the tur-
keys name was Dennis.
During the soft, summary days which
followed-for in Savannah the Novem-
Der sun shines warmly-Fred and Rob-
bic spent most of their time at the
coop. feeding Dennis with whatever
came to their hands, and soon the ac-
quaintance ripened into comradeship.
The turkey became as one of them-a
playfellow. Then the next door neigh
boris boy climbed upon the fence and
asked:
when you going to kill him?'
Kill who?"
"Ihe turkey" ssss
''What'd we kill him for?"
"For Thanksgiving. Amt you going
to eat him?"
The idea! Eat Dennis!
But after Fred and Robbie had gone
to bed the night before Thanksgiving
they heard their mother call out softly
over the banister:
"sam, are you going to kill the tur-
key tonight?"
NO." Mr.. Slawson's answer came
from below. ''I'll do it in the morn
ing"
Then there was a lot Of tremulous
whispering under the bedclothes in
the up stairs back room, and when all
the lights had been put out two little
figures in white crept from the win.

down the trellis. Dennis was soon tied
securely by one leg under the broad
front porch and the two little figures
in white clambered up the trellis and
crept stealthily in at the window.
The next morning Mr.. Slawson went
to the back yard with the hatchet in his
hand. But he soon came back. saying
unprintable things about the negro
race in general and about turkey
stealing niggers" in particular. And
the worst of it was Mrs. Slawson add

But it was thought Thanksgiving
could not be duly celebrated without
turkey. so after much of the morning

ing thanks. Fred was posted off to the
market with instructions to make all
possible haste. Robbie, who feared to
be left at home alone with the dreadful
secret, cried to go, too, but Mrs. Slaw-
