lay the hearth and kindle the FIRE
and spread the table To gain a
home and make 1t beautiful Is the
dream of many of these homeless
hospitable and so to crown It with
a higher beauty ought to be the sug-
gestion Of the happy feasting and fell
lowship of Thanksgiving.
The community was the host in
that first Plymouth festival, yet the
community divided into families. As
they kept the feast in the large family
groups into which the necessity of
house building and defense had up tn
this time divided them, did any OF
them think, we wonder, of the law of
the passover established for other
exiles and pilgrims so many centuries
before And If the household be too
little for the lamb, let him and his
neighbor next unto his house take It
according to the number of the
souls?
AS community we are today much
further from absolute want and peril
of starvation than the Pilgrims were
when they began the custom of the
yearly feast OF thanksgiving. Yet
there are many of our people who,
If they keep the feast must keep It
in the midst of poverty and peril of
want. In the widst of greater want
and peril the forefathers invited
strangers to the feast, providing what
they could They were wholly free
from that false pride. so common now
adays, which thinks most of appear
ances and is ashamed to offer hos
pitality unless it is possible. also, to
make a show of wealth Out Of what
they had the fathers gave God thanks
and entertained the strangers at their
gates. The other spirit OF false pride
and shame robs both guest and host
of the best joy Of the Thanksgiving
time-the JOY OF common faith in the
Giver Of ali good, and of cordial well
come which has nothing to conceal
and nothing to assert.

WITHIN OUR OWN HEARTS
Annual Season OF Praise and Prayer
Belongs to Each Of us For
Ourselves.

The president and the governors o.
states appoint Thanksgiving day; but
zach person makes 1t for himself. 1t
cannot be made in haste. The choic-
est things of the year must be gath
cred together in thought and put into
It. First are the permanent treasures
Of life. God is, and is our Father.
We have his word and his spirit. We
are in his family, not as servants but
as sons, and the son abideth for
ever" We have, therefore, future
unbounded by time In the fathers
house. These everlasting values en-
rich present life beyond limit. The
day when mems attention is concen-
trated on them becomes Thanksgiving
day.
We put into 1t also what the years
have given Instantly affections and
friendships. Ties suspended by cir
cumstances, not broken, are renewed,
as faces of the absent ones reappear
In the home.
The blessings of this year must be
put into Thanksgiving day. The work
that was planned when the winters
shortest days began to lengthen is
done. The harvest is completed. We
do not count the losses today. We
put the disappointments and sorrows
out of sight for the present. We are
not making a fast but a feast. The
tables are loaded with good things,
which symbolic the good things of
the year and of all the years and of
the eternal life And how many of
them are here with us-the husband,
the wife, the children, father and
mother, friends at hand and mes
5ages from those afar, the home and
all It contains. We have a Christian
Fellowship, a great and prosperous
country at peace with the world and
with helpful mission to other ma
tons which is being nobly fulfilled.
But something still is lacking. It
4 Is the flavor to the food. the piquancy
/ 70 the appetite, the flowers to adorn
Tho table. What we give gives value
Ito what we have God setteth the
solitary In families" If there is a
Ichafr vacant at our table some lonely
one must be found to fill it. While
There are homes unprovided, ours can
not be completely ready tor the festi-
val. Send portions unto him for
whom nothing is prepared; for this
day is holy unto our Lord" Thus our
table is adorned and its plainest food
made rich.
Now the day is made. We unite in
thanksgiving and we share the feats
in a happy fellowship surrounded by
an uncounted multitude of merry ma.
king homes, whose unspoken greeting
to one another explains the meaning
of our national Thanksgiving day
For the 10y of the Lord is you

KEEPING THE FEAST
TRUE MEANING OF LESSON OF
THANKSGIVING.
Should Be Time Of Rejoicing for All
Those Who Have Abundance
Sharing With Their Less
Fortunate Brethren.

The sober joyfulness of the first
New England Thanksgiving did not
exhaust itself in a single day. Gov
ernor Bradford after the first scanty
harvest made deliberate provision for
three days feasting and rejoicing,
during which the infant colony enter
tanned more than its own number of
visiting Indians. 1t is true that these
guests contributed venison for the
feast, as they had earlier contributed
corn for the use of the COLONY. hut
the heart of the feast was In the
hospitality which made them well
come.
1t would be hard to imagine
greater contrast than that which
must have existed between the sober
garb and quiet manners of the Pill
grims, schooled in persecution and
privation, and the fanatic dress and
unrestrained impulses of Massasoit
and his people. The Indian could be
dignified enough upon occasion, but
his uncareful self-indulgence even
more than the colonists' hospltable
unbending was the sign of an unusual
confidence. That mutual confidence
and good understanding, to the con-
tinuance of which these days of
thanksgiving and feasting evidently
contributed not littlG, procured those
necessary years of peace and security
which enabled the weakness Of the
Pilgrim colony to harden into
strength.
We call Thanksgiving day especial
ly a home festival, and its associations
are most delightful In family reunions
and home pleasures. Yet the prece-
dent of Plymouth hospitality has
never been and never ought to be
neglected. It IS time when those
who are blessed with home joys take
pleasure in sharing them with the
homeless. Families enlarge them
selves to include not only the scat
tered next Of kin, but those also who
are far from their own home circle.
A touch of the, blessed spirit Of home
Joy and mutual helpfulness stretches
beyond the limits of the family to
! Include those for whom the day would
otherwise be lonelier than others. days
for privation of home companionships.
This gracious hospitality OF the
Thanksgiving season brings home
memories to many guests. It ought
to have its teachings for many others
young men and women in our towns
who dream of homes yet to be earned
or realized-in keeping them in touch
with the true home spirit. There is
no selflshness in true home love. It
! Il not merely as a refuge for our

New Divorce Laws.

The Interdenominationa commission
on marriage and divorce for northern
California has recommended the fol
lowing changes in divorce and marriage
laws of the state:
A marriage license bill providing that
10 days notice must be given by
parties intending to be married before
a license can be issued.
A bill providing that a divorce eX,
aminer must be appointed in every
county of this state and must appear
in every divorce case to contest the
same.
A bill amending both sections of the
present law to punish adultery by
dropping the words "open and notori-
Gus from both sections.
A bill providing for the presence Of
the defendants to all divorce actions
in court at the trial of either in per
son whenever they can be found.

CHICKENS CAUSE
BABY PARALYSIS?
Washington, D. c., Physician Submits
Startling Report to Depart
ment of Health.

The startling theory that infantile
paralysis is transferred to human be-
ings from chickens was submitted Sat
urday to the public health and marine
hospital service by a prominent physi-
clan of Washington, D. G.
DR.. J. L. Lewis, who brought the
matter to the attention of the authori-
ties cited six cases in Bethesda, Md,
in which members of families have been
stricken with the dread and battling
disease after a disease bearing every
mark Of paralysis had made its. appear
ance among the poultry at the homes
of the victims.
The case was brought to a climax by
the death of Henry J. Hunt, a nephew
of General R. G. Langdrum, of Drum
mond, Md, member of one of the most
prominent families in Maryland.
The poultry about the Langdrum
farm, where Hunt lived, were stricken
with an unknown disease recently. They
appeared to become entirely paralyzed
and many died. Investigation showed
that poultry in all that section were
being killed by the disease. Then in
fantile paralysis appeared among the
residents. Hunt, a young man of "a,
and known locally as an athlete, was
soon stricken. He was i'll only five
days.

& Dozen the chimney moan and sigh,
Stirring into life each ember
TIL the flames roar fierce and high
Then my thoughts repert TO boyhOod,
When Thanksgiving Day drew nigh.
In the flames see the farmhouse,
And the woodland brown and Sere
Where the sportsman S rifle echoed
As thar day of days drew near.
Scenes which eUer shall be cherished
In the burning logs appear.
I can see the deep old cellar
Where the apple bins, piled high.
OUerShadowed heaps of pumpkins
Golden as the SunSef sky
And the casks of nesO fail cider
Stood along the wall close BY.
As the oId-tfne scenes are fading
While the fire slowly dies.

Are presented TO my eyes,
And I almost Scent fhe fragrance
OF the n1irce and pumpkin pies.
