"No," exclaimed the mother turkey,
IL would prefer my children not to as

Because they are so Needless and
don't know how TO feather their own
nestsr' inquired the duck.
'No. it isn't that so much have
brooded over" replied the turkey, but
there's something so artificial about
them"
However. when the incubator chicks
heard this they thought OF the funeral
baked meats Of Thanksgiving and re-
marked significantly. Death levels all

THANKSGIVING
....POETRY

nACK 20 the home OF childhood.
N Though scattered far and wide,
III Back to the dear old Kitchen
Yes. back TO your mothers side
Come. kiss her wriukled forehead,
Her hair, as white as snow,
And ait down on her footsfooi, Z
As In the long ago.
While father bends above you
Weak with the weight OF years..
His trembling voice with giadness,
His dim eyes filled with tears
To both the greatest pleasure
The year brings on its way
II this: Tho glad homecoming
Upon Thanksgiving day.
Once more the rooms re-echo
From kitchen. stairs and hall,
The sound Of old time voices
And merry dinner call,
While many sweet grandchildren.
With laughter light and gay,
Come pressing round the table
This glad Thanksgiving day.
Ellsworth American. [volume] (Ellsworth, Me.) 1855-current, 1902-11-26

So come. ye sons and daughters.
From restless city strife;
Come ere you lose your relish
For the quiet Joys Of life;
Come back. ye rowing children,
From prairies far and wide
And cluster round the hearthstone
Once more at eysntide-
Take up your song OF childhood
And sing II Ger again.
Forget that ye are matrons
or business loving men.
And II your eyes grow misty
Rejoice that II IL so,
A heart sincerely tender
Is the purest one to know.
Remember. with your loved ones
LIES lamp doth feebly, burn:
Your parents may not iinger
To greet late return.
Forget them not. though patient;
oh. come now while you rnayi
Praise God: rejoice together
on this Thanksgiving day.

Minister QueSada of Cuba in an inter-
view on conditions in that island, said
Not only is the island tranquil from one

the prominent generals in every section of
the island have communicated to President

lnces nave reported to President Palma
that their localities are free from disorder"
Asked regarding the negroes, he said:
Inere mas been some discomfort among
the coiored people because they have not

Palma came into Office they held meetings
and requested that they be given some of
