THE FIRST THANKSGIVING DINNER

enough to supply food to the Pilgrims
for several days. Here is the pro
gram Of that first Thanksgiving Day,
294 years ago:
At the break OF dawn on that day
an old cannon that had been brought
on shore from the Mayflower for the
purpose of intimidating the Indians
was fired as salute to show that the
big Thanksgiving Day had begun. Alb.
staining from food of any nature the
Pilgrims marched In procession, three
abreast, to the log church, and what
an impressive thanksgiving procession
II must have looked, for each man car
ried a loaded musket over his shout
der. There were prayers said and
psalms Of praise sang In voices that
showed the gratitude they felt and not.
outstanding the fact that the church
was unheated In any manner, the serv-
ices lasted many hours and then the
thanksgivers went forth into the bit
ter cold to their homes where the
first thanksgiving dinners were eaten.
Al big, fat, juicy turkey graccd The
center of each table. History tells
US there was little else In the line Of
meats or fowl, but plenty of fruits.
In the middle of the feast the Indian
king Massasoit came boldly into the
village Of log cabins at the head of a
long file Of sayages, whose shoulders
were heaped high with gifts Of vent
son and corn.
After the feast there were athletic
stunts by both the Pilgrims and In
dams and the day ended in a general
good feeling between the savages and
the little band Of home builders. The
next year was celebrated in the same
manner but with more cheering pros
poets and from then on Thanksgiving
became regular feature of New Eng
land life and in time the custom has
spread throughout the land
Because, in 1921 the Pilgrims had
fairly good crops and no beef to cele-
brate the occasion they ate turkey.
On their first Thanksgiving day they
offered thanks to God in their little
church, then Toasted on turkey and
later in the day gave an exhibition
of athletics. Since then these three
conditions have been closely associ
ated with the day.

Concern With Capitalization OF
Halt Million Files Articles
of Incorporation

DENVERf Colo. Articles OF ineor.
pofation filed in the Office Of the sec
rotary OF state indicate that new sugar
beet areas in Colorado, Wyoming and
Nebraska are to be developed by per-
sons allied with the interests which
have placed this state in the fore
ground Of the beet sugar industry The
name Of the new concern Is the Ger.
ing Sugar Company, with acapitaliza-
ton of $4,000
The fact that Chester s. Morey.
president OF the Great Western Sugar
Company, is named as a director in
the new company indicates that there
will be little, If any. competition be-
tween the two, and while no one con-
nected with the Great Western would
discuss the organization Of the new
company. Il was said that big tracts In
districts suitable for beet,raising have
been under Investigation for several
years. AS yet II has not been deter,
mined whether factories will be built
or where they win be located II a
building policy is adopted.
That there was sure to be some &c
tivity in the beet sugar industry was
one of the deductions from the recent
decision Of President Wilson TO con.
tinue the existing tariff on sugar in
stead OF cutting It of on May / next
as the present law requires Already
several new companies have been
formed in Idaho and Montana, in ter
ritory not now covered by the Great

vide that the new company my
