few candles in brass sticks, some hav-
ing the tall glass shades one finds in
New Orleans. After this huge low
ing cup Is passed, and all join hands
standing up saying with bowed heads:
God bless you and God bless me,
God bless us every one.
A simple repast is served, with no
servants In evidence, as this Is time
when the children are permitted to
dress In costumes representing the
Pilgrim fathers and mothers" and
they serve the feast. They first all
stand around the candle-lit table and
eat their five kernels Of parched corn
in memory Of the time when all our
forefathers had for which to be
thankful was the few grains Of seed
corn, enough to allot only five grains
to each person. At the close of this
supper child is chosen to repeat Ell
der Brewster's glorious admonition to
the Pilgrims when he bade them be
true to their promise. / quote 1T
here, for It is worthy of being read
by every one on the coming festival
day:
blessed will It be for Is, blessed
for this land for this vast continent.
Nay, from generation to generation
will the blessings descend. Genera
tions to come will look back to this
hour and these scenes Of agonizing
trial, to this day of small, things, and
say: Here was our beginning as a
people. These were our forefathers.
Through their trials we inherit our
blessings. Their faith is our faith,
their hope our hope, their God our
God.'"
Seems to me this Is splendid way
of impressing historical facts upon
the minds Of our young people, and 1t
does us older ones lots Of good to
turn our minds and hearts backwards,
remembering the times when this fair
land was not what 1t is today and to
say a prayer of thankfulness for those
who laid the foundation on such a
sound basis that we may with CRATE
full hearts celebrate our Thanksgiving
day.

Wanted Too Much for His Money.

During the recent senatorial I'M

tary of Tammany hall, had occasion
to visit one of the little upstate
towns, says the New York co~rrespon-
dent of the Cincinnati Times Star.
The principal hotel of the town was
full to the caves with drummers and
sample cases. The name of Tam
many carried no weight there, and as
for Smiths-'You say your name is
Tom Smith ?'said the clerk of the
hotel. Mister. every third man in
this neighborhood is named Smith,
and two out of three of EN- are cap
tains."
So that Tammany Tom Smith fit
ted a neat curse to the inhospitable
h%ostelery, its clerk and its future,
and went out to find him a place
wherin he might sleep that night. He
eventually located a somewhat shah
by hotel, which was principally used
by workmen from a nearby construc-
ton camp. He paid a dollar in ad-
N for % and breakfast. the
clerk remarked caustieally that "a
suit case isn't a guarantee hat the
bill will be paid-especially when a
guy has a room on the second floor"
And just before midnight the in
dignant Mr.. Smith piled down into
the hotel Office, almost dressed.
What's the natter" asked the
clerk. shifting his pipe to the other
eorner. Anything wrong?"
Wrong" gasped Mr.. Smith. trem-
bling. "Wrong?" confound your
old dump. anyhow. saw a pair of
rats as big as hedge hogs fighting in
the middle of the floor of my room"
Huh" said the clerk, closing his
eyes and preparing to return to sleep.
What do you want for a DOLLAR
