or in the mornin'."
"An' not keep Thanksgivin' in her

why, Mis- Blake, she's keepin' it to-
day at her own home" said Mandy,
staring with still wider eyes at her
hostess. 'This is Thanksgivin' day."

assertion stOutly, but she was begin

came %undeniably evident. I've skip

She put OH a brave face to mask her
modification as she went out to meet
her guests, whom she wished to see
away in spite of her longing to see
them. But when she invited them in
to the unready house and tried to make
a joke of her mistake and saw the
look of disappointment steal over the

Mrs. Blake's
thanksgiving

ooh, dear me, SUI! If that hain't too
bad!' Mrs. Betsey Blake cried in al
most fearful veXation as she stepped
Backward from the stove and with a
Fueful face regarded a thin stream of
water trickling from a crack low down
on the side of the wash boiler and
suffering into a cloud of steam on the
hot stove. John" she called in a voice
full of trouble, the b'iler's leakin' like
mad, an it looks as if just nothin' short
of a tinker could stop it,"
Her husband came into the kitchen
from the woodshed at a leisurely pace
and with an air of confidence in his
ability to cope with any number of
leaky boilers. But as he examined the
irregular tissure his face took on a puz-
zled and then a more serious express
sion.
Maybe you might stick a rag into
It," he suggested.
"No, not in such a shaped hole as
that" she said decisively and began
dipping the water out into a pail.
"You've got to take it to the village
an have it sOddered, an that's all
there is about it. It'll just spoil the
day, so | can't wash afore tomorrow,
an tbat'll put back my Thanksgivin'
work. Hain't it toe bad? Dear me, 1
most wish we hadn't asked father an
mother an Abigail to come"
well, I'm sorry it's %happened so, but
Aever mind. You'll fetch things round
all right. You g~en'ally do" said he, SO
confidently that her spirits rose above
the present disappointment.
Il can do some OF tomOrrOw's work
today an be so much ahead" she said,
and before he was on his way she had
half a pumpkin pared and stewing in
the place Of the boiler.
Next morning the mended boiler was
reinstated. By noon the delayed wash
ing was completed. and Betsy Blake
booked out Comp!acently from her be-
lated dinner upon the long array of
spotless clothes duttering from the
swaying line like triumphant banners.
In the afternoon a part of the ironing
vas done, and the next morning she

Meanwhile Betsey had spent half the
forenoon leisurely preparing for the
morrow's festivity, glad to be unembar-
raised by the presence of men folks
and uninterrupted by any visitors until
a tlmid rap called her to the door, and
she opened it to Silas Days little
daughter.
"Why, Mandy, is this you? Is there
anything the matter to your house?"
Betsey asked in evident surprise.
"No, ma'am; yes, ma'am, l mean,
some matter" Mandy stammered. "The
cat got int the buttry an eat up a
Whole punkin pie, all but the crust, an

arose refreshed and with a sense of re-
lief from one great labor of the week.
'There!" she exclaimed, sitting down
for a moments rest after clearing the
breakfast table, washing the dishes and
sweeping the kitchen. Thank good
ness, washin' day is over an some of
the ironin' done, an now it's only Tues

Wednesday, but couldn't make it seem
just right"
"of course it's Tuesday, for I washed

The real origin of Thanksgiving as
a day specially set apart for prayer
and rejoicing must be attributed to
Governor Bradford, the first governor
of Massachusetts colony. In gratitude
for the plenteous harvest in 1921, fol
lowing upon a period of great depres-
sion, he proclaimed a day of thanks
giving to be observed on Dec. 10 Told
style of that year. Four men were
sent out in search of game. They re-
turned loaded down with wild tur-
keys. Thus did the great American
bird make his first appearance.

Who scorns his native fruit and bloom
Or signs for dainties far away
Besides the bounteous board of home?
