Through the work of the Protestant
baskets Of Thanksgiving goodies for ap-
rroXimately 100 families, to-day will be
made more real THANKSGIVING day in
that number of homes where otherwise
little children would look dismally out
upon bleak world, in which Thanks
giving would seem mockery. The school
children also helped in this work yester-
day. the food which the pupils brought
TO the various schools being distributed
through ;he Howard Relief society. This
society also furnished the various
churches with lists of families where such
help would be appreciated and thus as
sisted in preventing duplication OF the
work. also making sure that no one
would be overlooked The number OF
cases where aid might be extended was
regarded as approximately the same as
in former years, the higher cost of living
being counter-balanced by the fact that
there is less unemployment in Burlington
than for several years past
The work of securing contributions and
distributing the baskets was accomplished
by committees of the ladies' organiza-
lions of the various churches The young
peoples ORGANIZATIONS also helped in the
work of distribution and any parishioner
who owned an automobile was pressed
into service The contents of the baskets

water and several of the young men en-
gagged in distributing them. found they
Possessed an unusually hearty appetite
for their supper.
Despite the high cost of living which
has been commented upon previously.
every basket was provided with either
a plump chicken or some other kind OF
meat There We're plenty of staple veSe-
tables of course apples preserves, and
various sorts of canned goods. In addi-
ton. there We're an astonishing number
Of cases where the ladies sending out
the baskets found room to slip in some
can.y or some other dainty for the chill
dren Even with a THANKSGIVING appetite.

not contain enough for at least one other
