DAY CELEBRATED BY
PILGRIM FATHERS.
Feast Usual Turkey and Things Great Protest
against Cost of Dinner INGREDIENTS

Plymouth, Mass. Nov. 81, 1921
(By Wurst Service) Thanksgiving
Day was duly and heartily observed
here yesterday by the sturdy inhabit-
ants of this thriving city. The day
passed without any overt happening
other than the repulse of three at
tacks by hostile Indians. Several din
ners got cold and several Indians be-
came the same way forever Oh this
account.
The usual observances of the happy
occasion were eaten and the regular
quota of ensuing indigestion has been
reported. Doctors of the vicinity ex-.
pect to work for twenty-five hours
day for the next three weeks giving
good advice and bad medicine to
those who were Incorporate in the
matter of mince meat and such.

force of Indian nimrods.
LAS to the price of the holiday
necessities said the Captain, that,
of course, is due to the tariff, or the
national wastefulness, or overproduc-
ton, or something like that 1t can't
be blamed on the day, and have no
statement to make along that line.
That there is not enough to be
thankful for, however, is an entirely
different matter and I can lay that
charge for the count in a very few
minutes. If there were nothing else
to be thankful for, the mere fact that
football is in operation is enough to
give sufficient provocation for the day.
While we die here in the New Eng
land States with great frequency and
complete f1nality. it is usually due to
some eccentric among the redskins
who can shoot straight. Now 1 don't
mind the dying so much, but I do hate
to be killed by man that I have
never met, and probably wouldn't like
if I did meet him.
In football one looses his life
yes. There were, ] understand, f1f-
teen fatalities at the Harvard Yale
game today But in such a case you
usually hand over your life to one of
your own color-and, if you are for
tunate, to a frat brother with whom
you have been on tears. Think how
that comfort must have taken the
edge off the death sting when the
players reported to the Grim Reaper
this afternoon"
The reporter cooked his pencil in
an expectant attitude.
Are there no other things to be
thankful for?" he inquired smilingIy.
Certainly snapped Capt. Standish,
plenty of things-wads of things
coolies of things! We can all be thank
full that we aren't as bad off as the
man that lives in the fiat above, or
down in the next block. The man
with an aching cornfield on his toes
can be glad that he hasn't hang nails.
Those suffering with hang nails can
reflect what a shape they would be
in if they had bunions too, and be
thankful that they haven't.
Even if he has all these things he
can still be glad that he is alive. If
he happens to be dead and tucked away
under fiattering tombstone he can
be thankful for the fact that he will
never again have to get up in the
middle of a cold night to answer the
telephone and find that the party has
the wrong number Thanksgiving is
here to stick"

an eloquent and fattering compli-
ment to the craftsmanship of the
| male citizens.
After the sun had pulled down the
shades of evening, an informal hop
was held on the after deck of the
Mayf1ower, the two-master on which
the colony arrived at this port before
it became a port Wilbur Sprint,
chief of police, attended in uniform
to see that none of the new rescue
dances were INDUCED in. On account
of the day being what it was, he was
doubly afraid that the turkey trot
would be down several times on the
program. No arrests were made. The
Mayf1ower sails from here next Tues
day at P. Nj. with a full cargo of
wooden nutmegs.
Now that the day is over there is a
good deal of complaint heard about
the busy marts of trade concerning
the cost of items on yesterdays menu.
1t is but another and violent outbreak
of the High Cost of Living. There
was an unusually indignant TRADE
against the price of the November
bird and its side partner, the cram
berry.
when we landed last year on
the large cobb1estone down by the
harbor," a West End housewife said
this morning, "such necessary luxuries
could be INDUCED in once every year
without inviting a mortgage on the
home place. The Indians who sell
the birds and berries are becoming too
arrogant to be tolerated. Last year L
could get gallon of A No. L cram
berries and a fortypound turkey-on
the hoof-for ten glass beads. And
they thanked me for 1t.
But this year! To get a decent
appearing turkey and enough cram
berries to make 1t presentable L had
to come through with 20 fine colored
beads. Nor was that aIl-the buck
Indian 1 bought from insisted on a
long pull at my husbands demijohn
before he would close the DEAL
The Redskins themselves admit the
aeronautive tendencies of Thanksgiv-
ing necessities. but Indignantly deny
that there is any combination in re-
straint of trade. They say that the
cranberry mines of this region are al
most exhausted and that apparently
the local turkeys have embraced the
rigid practice of race suicide.
OF course the citizens are not hob
bIed. or anything like that, and could
go out with their own pop guns for
- growers of the light and dark.
- the woods are swarming at this
season with hostile Indians, and as
usual thing three or four of these
have to be turned into good ones be-
fore a turkey is bagged. The hunt

keys would amount to even at the
high prices in vogue.

sparseness of the inha bitants, there

that by the time a couple of more
