Reversible Goats.

Long coats are making use of the re-
versible ideas. A double effect is OBJ
tainable by turning over n revers,
buttoning back another style or de-
taching a seemingly permanent collar
and changing its adjustment with an
entirely new effect.
For the storm coat there are many
buttons and buttonholes that multiply
the roles to be played by the coat. A
long double revers can be unfastened,
turned over to one side and fattened
down into a plain protective collar.
A single revers Is loosened, the under
portion pulled out, and, 10, a vest Is re-
vealed that was never guessed at be-
fore!
Buttonholes are placed in unusual
places. but If you investigate you will
find that they have a use In the re-
versible act that Is played by the hap
py wearer.
One coat can be transformed into
another by this reversible feature,
which is characteristic of the new
models.
The gain is the woman's. Style has
been kind to femininity, and comfort
plus charm In line and ornamentation
are features that promise satisfaction
to all.

Governor Bradford made preparations
for a rejoicing. -Four men were sent
out to hunt wild game, and they OBJ
tanned enough In one days hunt to
serve 300 persons for three days. In
the meantime the largest kitchen In the
colony was that at Dame Brewster's
house, and 1t was under the guidance
Of Priscilla Mullins, who later became
the wife of John Alden, that the good
housewives prepared the viands for the
feast. A message was dispatched to
Massasoit bidding him and his men to
the celebration. On the appointed
Thursday he and ninety Of his warriors
arrived, and after a religious service
they, together with the colonists, In
dulged In athletic sports under the d.
rection of Miles Standlsh. On the third
day the real feast took place. Every
thing had yielded a bountiful supply
for this first Thanksgiving, so that
when the pioneers sat down to the
meal they beheld a table heavily laden
with water fowl, wild turkey and ven
ison, corn and barley, and they gave

M0DISH WAISTS
FOR WINTER WEAR.
SemitaiIored Effects Are Pop
ular and Effective

The best selling waists In strictly
tailored finish retain the characters
tics of the mannish shirts In the high,
soft turnover collar and cuffs and welt
ed seams, says the Dry Goods Econo-
mist.
Washable crepes de chine, heavy
china silks and madras show the ar
row colored stripes on white ground
work, such as brown, Dutch and navy
blue, wisteria purple and amber.
Buttons Of colored glass or amber
composition are very effective for the
front plait closing when they match
the stripe of~the silk. White pearl but
tons are good style, however, and by
conservative buyers are preferred over
the colored varieties.
Soft finished taffetas, messalines and
satins are usually OF the same color as
the suit as well as black. Many Of
these models are plain, but both striped
and platded patterns are included In
the displays. The groundwork Of the
Scotch plaids Is usually a blue, brown,
green or black, with a plaided design
brought out in vivid shades of red,
green, blue or yellow. The stripes on
these dark waists show shades of red,
purple. taupe, yellow and king blue.
The turnover collars are quite high
and usually button through at the
front.
Full length sleeves are set on a
slightly extended shoulder and are fln-
ished with soft turnback cuffs, which
button through like the collar or else
they have the u~nstiffened straight cuff
band.
Present styles favor the use of demi-
tailored or dressy waists. but the tai
lored models are practically staple.

Huntiru In a City Park.

There Is only one man who has the
right to shoot animals in Central park,
New York city. He is Arthur Hassler,
and it Is his duty to protect the sheep,
swans, squirrels and other privileged
pets from homeless dogs and cats that
infest the city parks. And that Is not
all Of his trouble, either, for he has to
give his attention occasionally to the
water rats along the lake and the
hawks that sometimes fly over from
Jersey. Hassler roams all through the
park looking for animals that are like
ly to do mischief, and he has with him
a 20 caliber repeating rifle. He is an
~unerrtng shot with this, too, as he
has hunted game In all parts of the
world. Although 1t seems a trife cruel
to shoot the animals down In that
manner, It really is necessary, as the
tame ones in the park would stand lit
tie chance II they were not given that
protection. And perhaps the little
boys and girls who play there would
be in some danger also, as some OF the
dogs and cats become 81 wild after a
short taste Of freedom that they might
cause all kinds Of trouble II some
thing were not done about 1t.

The First Thanksaivinq.

The sufferings of the pilgrims during
the first winter in New England were
severe. At one time there were only
seven well persons to care for the sick.
Within four months twenty-one per-
sons died of the severe cold and from
want of substantial food, and for two
years they suffered many privations.
The progress Of the colony was very
slow. Their harvests were insufficient
to feed themselves and newcomers.
During the famine of 1923 the best
dish they could set before their friends
was a bit of fish and a cup of cold wa
ter" but in the summer and autumn Of
1923 they were relieved by a bountiful
harvest.
After the. bountiful harvest of 1923
Governor Bradford appointed q day Of
thanksgiving, fasting and prayer. This
was observed with great solemnity.
Gradually the custom Of appointing a
fast and thanksgiving day each au-
tumn after the gathering In Of the
harvest became universal and spread
throughout all the New England colo
MES. During the Revolution a day Of
national thanksgiving was annually
recommended by congress, and from
this grew our annual Thanksgiving OBJ
