event:
Our harvest being gotten in, u
G%overnour sent foure men on fowling,
that so We might after a more special
manner rejoyce together, after We had
gathered the fruit Of u labours;
they foure in one day killed as much

served the Company almost a weeke.
at which time amongst other Recrea-
tons, we exercised our Armes, many
of the Indians coming amongst US,
and amongst the rest their greatest
King Massasoyt, with some ninetie
men, whom for three dayes we enter
tanned and Toasted, and they went out
and killed Deere, which they brought
to the plantation and bestowed upon
the C~aptaine, and others. And al
though 1t be not alwayes 30 plentiful,
as 1t was at this time with US, yet
by the goodnesse Of God, we are so
fare from want, that we often wish
you partakers Of our plentie."
While the bill Of fare Of this first
American celebration Of the Harvest
festival has not been preserved the
feast was no doubt a royal n even
If some of the food and the methods
Of preparation would seem strange
and outlandish to present day Amer
leans. The provisions must have been
bountiful for there were about 40
persons including the 80 Of Mas
sasoit's company who were enter
tanned for three days, and all had
their share of supplies. From other
sources we know that the foods Of
the sea were abundant and that the
Pilgrims had made the acquaintance
Of the oyster. Ducks they had in
plenty Of the choicest species and also
geese. Game, from grouse TO veni-
son, was brought in from the forest
in abundance, and there was a great

In addition to wheat, rye, barley and

during the summer by drying a guam
tity of strawberries, ~gooseberries and

basis of the first Harvest Thanksgiv-
ing day celebration in America was
much the same as today.
But II the good housewife OF today
was obliged to prepare the thanksgiv-
ing feast with the utensils and 1ncon-
y~eniences Of the kitchen Of three cen
lures G she probably would throw
I'D her hands in hopeless despair. The
kitchen with it's great glowing ire
place was the housewives domain and
the general living room Of the entire
family. The walls and the floor were
bare and the furniture meager and
comfortless, while the kitchen furnish
ings were odd and strange. 1t was IN
this great c%avernous chimney that the
Pilgrim wife cooked her thanksgiving
dinner. Placed high up in the yaWn-
ing chimney was the heavy backbar'
or lug-hole, Of green wood, afterwards
displaced by the great iron crane. II
was beyond reach of the flames. and
from 1t hung a motley collection OF
hooks of various lengths and weights.

as pot-hooks, pot-hanGles, pot-claws'

From these were susp ended the pots

of numbering that constitutes murder

GOLDEN TEXT-"A voice csme out OF

1. On the Mountain, Wv 2-6.-Peter's
confession Is connected closely with
the lesson for today. There Is no rec
ord Of the intervening six days." We
are left to surmise what Of fear and
perplexity filled the minds of the dis
ciples after listening to the words OF
Jesus found in Mark 1884 and 81.
These words must certainly have
filled them with doubt aud dismay.
AS If to meet this condition Of mind
Jesus takes Peter, James and John,
those three partners In business, who
were also present in the home OF
Jairus, and later went with him into
the garden, and withdrew to a noun
tain, probably Mt. Hermon. Here he
was transformed, i.e., metamorphosed,
completely changed in appearances;
read carefully the parallel accounts.
Paups Inspired Words.
Joined with Jesus there stood
Moses the law-giver and Elijah the
great reform prophet. What a COM
mentary as to the interest Of heaven
in a dying Messiah and in the glory
Of that death.
We need to read Paul's inspired
words (Phil. 2:6,7) In this connec-
ton. He who thought 1t not a prize
to be grasped after to be equal with
God, yet took upon himself the form
of a slave and was made In the habit
or fashion of a man, Upon the noun
tain Jesus reversed the figure and the
"servant"-the Son of Man revealed,
e. g., showed forth, the glorious ap-
pearance Of the Son of God. The dis
ciples there caught a faint glimpse OF
that glory which he had with the
Father before the world was (John
17:5). But the work Of redemption
was not yet accomplished, and so
once more he turns back upon that
glory. Small wonder, though, that as
they beheld these heavenly visitors
Peter should excleim: Rabbi, 1t is
good for us to be here; let us make
three tabernacles (booths), n for
thee, one for Moses and one for ELL
jah." Notice, however, that Peter
spake "for he wist not what to say"
". g.. Mark alone records these
words, and Mark largely received his
gospel from Peter. Peter should have
kept still. Some revelations are too
sacred for speech. Paul had such a
one. But while the mount Of vision is
glorious, Jesus knew the need Of crys-
TALKING that vision In the lives OF
those in the valley below. There was
work yet to be done wv. IA, 15). Luke
tells us that the TRANSPORTATION came
"as he was praying" So even yet
there Is no greater transferring and
transforming power than prayer
Moses and Elijah appeared I'm glory"
whereas Matthew tells US that his
face did shine as the sun" (17:2).
This was not a reflected glory, but
the o%utshining from within.

w have gathered the harvest from shore to shore,
And the measure is full and trimming oer."
Then lift up the head with a song!
And lift up the hand with a gift!
To the ancient Giver Of all
The spirit in gratitude lift!
For the JOY and the promise of spring,
For the hay and the clover sweet,
The barley, the rye. and the oats,
The rice and the corn and the wheat,
The cotton and sugar and fruit,
The flowers and the fine honeycomb,
The country, so fair and so free,
The blessings and glory of home.
