know the minds of the Italian leaders
say they realize the possibilities Of

HARVEST FESTIVALS OF OLD
Greeks and Romans Had Days Of
Thanksgiving for the Fruitful
Gifts of the Earth.

Greece, in the months of August and
September Of each year, after the har-
vest had been gathered, celebrated the
great feast known as the Eleusinia, or
the feast to Demeter of the beautiful
| robe. Demeter, the great earth-moth-
| err, was the goddess of cornfields and
harvests. Her daughter, Persephone,
while gathering flowers one day, was
kidnapped by Pluto. Demeter searched
for her long. by. land and sea, and at
last learned that her lost daughter had
been married to Pluto, the dark spec
ter Of the underworld, and that she
was now his queen in the realm be-
low. But Persephone had eaten
pomegranate seed and could remain
with her mother only part of the year.
This made Demeter angry, and she left
the gods and made her dwelling upon
the earth. She taught Celeus. king of
Eleusis, agriculture, how to pillow, sow
and reap. This feast was one of the
grandest of the Greek festivals.
The Romans celebrated a harvest
festival called the Cerealia. 1t took
its name from Ceres, who was the
Deneter Of the Romans, and the feast
was celebrated at some time in the
month of October. Sacrifices of tn
best fruits and honey cakes were OF
fered up III the temple. Professions
We're made to the fields by men and
women dressed In white and crowned
with oak leaves and poppies. Ceres
was represented in q chariot drawn
by dragons, her head eroMned with 4
garland OF cora ears, and holding
basket Of peoples in her hand, I3ig
festival was a general holiday time
Coming down to u More mel.fi3
time, we read of thanlsgivings in Hob
land and In England, the recollection
of whose harvest homes" perhaps,
inspired the Puritans to inUugurate the
custom in this country. The first
Thanksgiving on American soil, ne

Edward Winslow, was held in 1921, 1G
