SEEMS TO FIND LITTLE JOY
Possibly P~remonition of Its Fate
Makes the Turkey Such a Con-
firmed Pessimist.

The turkey is a serious bird. The
expression written on his bill, as he
looks mournfully out over the world
or walks solemnly, his long neck sway
ing here and there In search of the
passing grasshopper, is that of a set
tied melancholy due to the certainty
of fate and to the hereditary loss of
his illusions.
For. ever since the days of the Pill
grim Fathers, the lives of countless
generations of the turkey family have
been cut short in their prime by sud-
den and bloody tragedy. What would
be the effect upon the minds and
hearts of a human family if every
member of it for 300 years back had
met a violent and bloody end just upon
reaching maturity? A pail would hang
over the annals of the house. Despair,
fixed and settled, would be written
into the very constitutions of it's mem
bers, and life would become a burden,
a curse almost too great to be borne.
1t must have been that one of the
Pilgrim Fathers, viewing the end of
the turkey as symbolic of that Of
man, wrote that cheerful ditty which
our ancestors were accustomed to
sing in their gathering for divine wor-
ship:
Thy years are one eternal day.
And must thy children die so soon?
