THANKSGIVING COMBINES
RELIGION AND PATRIOTISM

1t has been said h THANKSGIVING n
the one holiday that combines religion and
patriotism. Yet in the common observe
ance OF 1t there is frequently very little
OF either. It Is too often reduced to !
feast and nothing more.
Why should not the idea OF Offering
thanks for some great national blessing
during each year be made more promi-
nent, especially In giving the meanin Of
the day to the children? In every year
there Is some occurrence Of this sort. OF
course tho old idea was to give thanks
Tor bountiful crops and national pros
perity. This is good, but why not add to
Il thanks for special blessings both to
individuals n to the nation?

ORIGIN AMONG JEWS
OF THANKSGIVING DAY

To the Editor Of The Tribune: In
yesterdays issue of The Tribune I no.
ticed that "a new Daniel has come to
judgment" He Informs us that the
day in the Jewish calendar that
mostly correspondents with U Amer
lean Thanksgiving is that of Purim,
which In in commemoration Of the saw
ing OF the Jews in Persia from
Hannah" and which is celebrated in
the month OF March.
The writer could have found the
same analogy in the feast of the Pass
over. when the Jews were freed from
Egyptian bondage and which is also
celebrated with feasting, or the feast
of Hanukkah. which is celebrated in
the month OF December, in commence
ration of the great event, when the
Jews threw off the yoke OF Anttochus
E%piphanes.
If the writer of this article had read
the Bible as much as the members of
the Plymouth colony did. he would
have found that they adopted It d.
Goth. the feast of 1ngathering, which
Is celebrated in the end of Septem-
Der or In the beginning Of October. He
would have found that not only did
the Jews have a Thanksgiving day.
but a Thanksgiving week."
we read the following: "On the fit,
teenth day of h seventh month, when
ye nave gathered in the fruit OF the
iand. We shall seek a feast unto the
Lord seven days . and We shall
rejoice before the Lord your God.
. 1t shall be a statute forever in your
generations
This feast Of 1~ngathering is cele-
brated throughout Jewry every year
20 ehis day as a Thanksgiving for the
harvest. The synagogues are deco-
rated with fruit, vegetables and grain
and the halel (praise) is chanted. II
10 to this. the feast OF Succoth. that
our Thanksgiving day is analogous
and not to Purim.
we would not attempt to keep out
the writer OF that article from the
kingdom of heaven because he IL one
OF the blessed" but would give him
q old but ever valuable advice.

ENJOY THANKSGIVING

Uncle Sam Makes Elaborate
Preparation to Give His Boys
a Great Feast.
BEST FED BODY ON EARTH
The commissary sergeant, that busy
old housewife Of each company in the
United States army, is this week turn
ing upside down each company bar
racks where federal troops are sta
toned, in preparation for the ap-
preaching Thanksgiving feast. The
commissary officers on board each of
the fighting ships of the nation are no
less busy below decks. AS q result of
this activity there will be spread next
Thursday such a banquet for the ma
tons 125. 900 fighting men as might
make h mouths of the 100000 water
with envy IL they only knew.
For Uncle Sam provides literally for
his fighting force when there Is an oc-
castor. .vr the observance Of of the
great natal days. The men OF the army
and navy are but boys for the most
part. Most of them are but a few
years removed from the times when
their mothers made the most of such
occasions and there Is not an unocca-
sional touch of inconsistencies in the
breast OF each. The kindly uncle
knows OF this n bestirs himself to
lessen the pang, his balm being the
feeding to bursting Of the inner man.
The result Is surprising. The men of
h service cit down on Thanksgiving
day to such q dinner as 1t would be al
most impossible for the average civil
Ian to buy. For the commissaries Of
the army n navy are great. well
oiled machines UGH as It Is almost inn
possible to duplicate in private life.
These sumptuous spreads are accom-
plished out of the regular rations of
h men in h two branches of the
service. 1t seems a marvel in these
days Of the high cost Of living that
such meals are possible out of an ex-
1886 cents per man e day, and in
lthe navy of but 1853 cents. Yet the
marvel Is regularly performed. These
men of the military services are pro-
vided, u of these stipends, such food
as not one working man in a hundred
ever eats. Day by day their meals are
full Of variety and Of those elements
that are said to stick to the ribs
But on Thanksgiving day there Is a
very riot Of food.

 Governor Robinson stated Friday morning that he considered trip to Washington necessary at this time to secure government aid to revet the caving banks of the Arkansas river at the State farm.

 Reyetment Work Needed. It was explained at that time that revetment work on the banks above the farm was necessary before the le- vee could be strengthened. Action was requested of the Wa" Department by telegram from Governor Robinson. It is desired that the government take charge of the work immediately and proceed to the revetment of the bank so that the levees can be raised. The 1 statement has been made by the en- gineer for the district that unless the revetment work is done the farm will be placed in serious danger from ove.- flow when the next rise in the river comes.
 Governor Robinson stated that he had telegram from Senator Kava- naugh relative to this matter.
 "Will you be gone long?" the gover- nor was asked.
 q will. return as soon as possible he declared.

All of :Purcell's story has been carefully worked out and corroborated. Weeks of preparation has been spent upon it so as to leave the accused police no. loophole. In addition to his payments to the New York officers nahned, Purcell de- clared he paid protection money te Sheriff Harvey, of fQueens county when he opened po4l room in Lons Island City.
 Coming hack to New York, Purcel located in West Thirty-third street where he paid $120 week to Herber Graham, 9 ward man. At place further up town he paid Captain Gan non $6O week through the latter collector. Then he was in business with Jack McAuliffe, the prize fighte in Sixth avenue. They paid $10O month to Inspector Mclaughlin, thu witnes ssaid, and $60 week to Cap tain Naughton. Later he paid $60
