? day, but this dish gave place to
the peacock, and the peacock in it's
turn was conquered by the turkey,
when Capt. John Smith, fresh from
his Virginian wars, came home to tell
the amazed English folk of the bird
That he saw parnding the new world
forests, "exactly like a proud Turk
showing off before his harem."
When the peacock was in it's glory
orally restored to the roasted bird and
Its bCHk gii'lrl. Sometimes the whole
bird was covered with gold leaf and q
strip OF cotton, saturated with spirit,
set alight In it's beak-a relic possibly,
with the English snapdragon and
blazing pudding, of the fire worship Of
pagan days. A lady of noble birth and
great beauty was always chosen to
pear the bird into the b%anqueting hall.

by the duke Of Granada to the duke

1t must be admitted that golden pea
cocks and bOars' heads have most al

petite, and the England Of old. with
Its roistering carol singers. seems a

But the E%nglishman Of today is more
than well content t" have his carols
sung by a little cockney lad. to laugh

The Mofher,s
Christmas Gih

1t never comes to Christmas but
think about the times
We used to save our pennies and
our nickels and our dimes,
And we buncaed them all together,
even little baby brother
Putin somet;. ,g for the present that
we always gave to mother.
We began to TAX about it very early
in December,
Twas a very serious matter to US
children, l remember,
And we used to whisper nightly our
suggestions to each other,
For by nothing cheap and tawdry
could we show our love for
mother.
Hers must be a gift Of beauty, fit to
symbolic her ways;
1t must represent the sweetness and
the love that marked herdays.
1t must be the best our money, all
combined, had power to buy,
And be something that she longed
for ;nothing else would satisfy.
Then it matterednot the token, once
the purchase had been made.
1t was smuggled home and hidden
and with other treasures laid,
And we placed our present proudly
in her lap on Christmas day,
And we smothered her with kisses
and we laughedher tears away.
1t never comes to Christmas but l
think about the times
We used to save our pennies and
our nickels and our dimes,
And the only folks l envy are the
sisters and the brothers
Who still have theprecious privilege
Of buying for their mothers.

that Alan liked to repeat from Mrs.
