TURKEYS ARE ARRIVING BY
CARLOADS
All Churches Plan Services-SaIvatior
Army and Volunteers Propose to
Feed Hordes of Hungry
and Destitute

Over two million dollars for Thanks
giving turkey!
one hundred thousand pounds of
tender fowls to be sacrificed on the
altar of Thanksgiving.
This may seem a large amount TO
the uninitiated, but that is what is es-
timated by the produce men.
This amount of money will be eX-
pended by the citizens of the City OF
Angels on Thanksgiving tukey, be-
side the other good things to go with
it, to say nothing of the doctors bills
which will doubtless follow.
The Thanksgiving of 1905 will par
take of the same spirit manifested by
the Puritan forefathers, but instead of
raising the fowls to be consumed the
country wide has been secured for the
finest fowls to grace the tables of the
prosperous American citizens. Car af-
ter car has arrived in Los Angeles
during the past week, laden with live
turkeys, and the same is true of the
refrigerator cars, with the exception
that their loads are ready for the
market
viii Give Destitute One Meal

be given up to church services. The
different churches of each locality will
unite in union services. In consider
alton of the housewives, the hour has

to return home for the midday meal.
1t will not be a day of thanksgiving
for the prosperous alone, but the poor
and needy, the destitute ones and
those ravaged by sickness and disease,
will have cause to thank the God of
the harvest for bountiful gifts. The
different charitable organizations.
churches and Christian people have
united in caring "for the least of
these"
In many instances baskets and boxes
OF food will be distributed to families,
giving them a chance to enjoy fam
lily dinner. In other instances dinners
will be given. to which all are invited
to partake of the good things which
will be set before them on daintily
arranged tables.
Thanksgiving day will be generally
observed in Los Angeles as "A day of
family reunion, when the children and
grandchildren will gather for a happy
time In contrast to other holidays, IT
is strictly and uniquely American both
in practice and spirit, and Is a day set
apart for the home life of the republic.
