Reacors For Thanks.
Tho following Is a copy Of a sketch
headed why We Are Thankful" writ
ten by the prisoners in Jail at Macon,
Mo. last Thanksgiving day and placed
In the hands OF the sheriff with the re.
quest to let the light shine on it:
Dear Governor-We have read your
Thanksgiving proclamation with interest
and will abide by your suggestions as
well as We may be able in our limited
environments. Although unjustly shut
out from tac world ut present. We have
much to be thankful for. The papers are
not pitching into US and calling US hard
names like they do Mr.. Rockefeller, Sem
ator Platt. Willie Hearst and other men
with larger measure OF liberty. Our
appetite Is Of the nevcr-Get-weary kind
and we don't have to take treatment for
insomnia.
We are not nervous concerning bur-
glars and holdup men. and our diamonds
are the least Of our worries. Nobody
comes round and tries to work US on wild
cat mining stock or sell US gold bricks
The coal man hasn't come after his
money. and we don't look for him. Snow
Ice. sleet and wintry winds are nothing
" US. We uon nave 10 get up early
Sunday morning and fix for Sunday
school.
Three times n day, week In and week
out. We get beans. corn dodger and well
water. except on holidays. when there's
a double dose of water.
In looking over these matters we feel
that we are blest far beyond the common
run. for which we are deeply thankful
governor. We feel satisfied. We don't
care to get any nearer where you live.
much wo like you. Your ways are
not our ways. and we wish to be particu-
lar and lead Il quiet. orderly life. Re-
spectfully. GEORGE O'BRIEN,

FAMOUS FAST AND FEAST.
One Preceded and One Followed the
Civil War.

One Preceded and One Followed the
Civil War.
Queerly enough. both national fasts
and national Thanksgiving were af-
fcctcd by the civil war. President
Buchanan appointed day Of national
fasting and prayer to avert civil war
Republican governors Of states In some
Instances ignored 1t and In others took
notice Of 1t In a way to rub their ideas
against buchanan and his party into
their proclamations. Democratic gov
ernors, south and north, under the
form Of an appeal to tho Deity. eau
terized Republlcanlsm to tho best Of
their ability.
AS President Buchanan called the
nation to prayer to avert civil war, so
did President Lincoln call 1t to thanks
giving for victories In civil war, to
the end that more victories might
bring union and peace. OF course, as
Mr.. Buchanan was ignored or satirized
in antipathetic political quarters in the
north. SO was President Lincoln crfti-
cised and even abused in the south,
where the Union forces were not In
control But as Mr.. Buchanan was
the pioneer In national fast day and
rs Mr.. Lincoln was the pioneer In ma
tional thanksgiving days 1t is well to
remember that sectional conditions In
sectional war moved both and that
the great national observance which
we now have was born in the throes Of
fratricidal civic contention.-Brooklyn

FIFTY YEARS AGO.
Thanksgiving Day In Old New Eng

Thanksgiving Day In Old New Eng
land.
A charming description Of n New
England Thanksgiving day fifty years
ago is given by Mrs. Harriet Beecher
Stowe In one Of her novels. OF all
days In the year 1t was the one for
which a new dress was imperatively
demanded. New ways Of making
squash pies and ounce tarts were
proper subjects for conversation for
some days before the feast. For a
week before the date fixed the children
Of each homestead were kept busy
chopping mice meat and pounding cln-
namOn. allspice and cloves in n wood
en- mortar. slicing candied orange peel
and stoning raisins.
AL the members of the family came
home to eat their Thanksgiving din
ner. The courses consisted Of turkeys.
chickens and chicken pics, then plum
puddings and afterward pies. After
the dinner the patriarch Of the house
gave a recital Of all Gods mercies to
them. speaking from the text, LET
children hear the mighty deeds which
God performed Of old" That there Is
no present occasion for emulating their
fathers deeds Is all the more reason
for observing Thanksgiving day.-New
York Times.

The first Thanks giving held on
American soil was hy tile pilgrim fn-
theirs in the year 1921, shortly after
they landed at Plymouth rock. 1t was
not very much of Il Thanksgiving. for
they did not feel that they had very
much to be thankful for but was rath-
er revival of the English harvest
home. Matters were about the same
In l6o2 and with much about the same
result In giving thanks. In 1Go3. how
ever, an expected ship failed to ar
rive with provisions when they Were
likely TO be most wanted, and the
prospects of famine were so bright
that Governor Bradford. acting In the
undoubted exercise OF his prerogative,
ordered II day to be set apart for fast
Ing, humiliation and prayer.
But before the day appointed had
come provisions turned up all right,
and the day was turned into one Of
Thanksgiving. Mr.. Winslow, one of
the pilgrims. In letter gives an inter
esting account of this memorable day
In American history. The celebration
was held with GLORY. honor and
praise. with all thankfulncss to our
good God which deals SO graciously
with u.s." Ninety Indians. headed by
King MasSasoit. arrived Mt the settle

In the feast. This celebration was
somewhat previous, for not long after
the pilgrims were down to plain lob
sters without bread. and spring water,

our compleXions." as we'll 1t might

Thanksqivinq Day In Paris.

Last Thanksgiving was celebrated
by Americans In Paris in a manner
that was rs "traditionaT as was pos
sible In face Of q few shortcomings,
such as almost complete famine in
pumpkin pie and a shortage in the
cranberry supply.
Dinners were enjoyed at home by
Americans who have homes in Paris,
but the "floaters" who find them
selves far from their native heaths ON
feast days had to trust their fates to
hotels and restaurants.
The American Art association at "a
Rue Notre Dame des Champs gave a
dinner for its members.
Hotel and restaurant proprietors
have long since appreciated the impor-
tance Of Thanksgiving day Us "jour
de fete" for Americans, and they had
prepared the national dish" Among
these were the Athenec. Langham and
Continental hotels and Noel, Peters
and Champeux restaurants, which
were all crowded with Americans at
the dinner hour
