"Taking His Seed"

chipmunks who had come up at one
side of his cage and were taking his
seed.
HE did not mind their taking his
seed at all. and the child, sitting in
the swing laughed as she saw the lit
tie chipmunks taking the parrots
seed away and every time they came
up for more Polly would cheerfully
and cordially say, Hello, hello
"Of course he knew he would get
more before he was put to bed, but
still it was generous of him not to
mind how much of his food the chip
munks took. 1t showed a really gen
erOuS spirit and the child laughed to
herself as she saw the chipmunkS,
hurrying and scurrying, getting all the
seed they could, not bothering to say,
'Thank-YOu,' and the generous Polly
Parrot saying every single time they
came up to his cage to take his seed.
Hello. hello, hello there
But he was also talking to them
in his chattering way which the child

THE chipmunkG said nothing but
merely helped themselves to more.
"'Of course, said the parrot, 1 don't
want you to feel bashful.'
1.-The chipmunks answered this by
their actions. They took more and did
not appear bashful.
"'But | had made a mistake for
thought you had all you winters sup

eat for ever so long when last we saw
each other.

to waste such lovely day.
''They said nothing, but if they had
answered they would have said they
didn't want to waste a day when he
was out. And not so much, either, be-
cause he went out, but because he
came out of his cage with his seed
and water.
80 while the other creatures play
ed and thought and enjoyed the nice
warm day which was so unexpected.
the chipmunks worked as hard as they
could to eat and save. and ate so they
wouldn't have to eat their savings
at home!
And through it all Polly Parrot kept
very cheerful and very pleasant and
never failed to say to the chipmunks
at almost every nibble they had, Hell
TO- hello. hello there.
"And though the chipmunks didn't
bother to say thank you because they
were so busy they really were CRATE
full, and Polly Parrot knew it,"

AhAAu WILL OdNu 4CSuAA
Thanksgiving day, and carries
us back to 1921 when the land
was young and our pilgrim forbears
were laying the first foundation stones
of our great American republic. To
them belongs the credit of having cele-
brated the first Thanksgiving day in
New England, but not the first in
North America. Historians remind us
of the fact that in the year 1873 an
English minister named WOlfall con-
Quoted a Thanksgiving service on the
shores of Newfoundland. The min
lister was with an expedition under
Frobisher which brought the first Eng
lish colony to settle on those shores.
It was in this pious spirit OF graft
tude that the Pilgrims on the ''stern
and rock-bound coast" of Plymouth
'praysed God'' in sincere gratitude for
the way in which he had delivered
them from all the dangers Of the deep
that the Mayf1Ower had gone through.
We of the luxurious plenty of our day
would feel that we had little for
which to be grateful if we had no
more than the Pilgrims had on their
first Thanksgiving day. Dangers known
and unknown eIcOmpassed them round
about, and their days were filed with
hard labor, while their fare was of the
plainest and the future was uncertain.
But they had stout hearts in which
hope ran high. Of the American
Thanksgiving one historian says:
'The annual celebration, as we have
it in it's present form, is essentially Of
American conception. The settlers of
jamestown, the Dutch of New York,
the Pilgrims Of Plymouth and the Pu-
ritans of Boston were in every respect
devoutly religious people. They were
cOrnerstones in the great temple of
republican government on this side of
the Atlantic. The first written cOnsti-
tuition in all history was an American
document, in that it was written in the
cabin of the Mayflower on Saturday.
Nov. IL, 1920, as that unique craft
swung at her anchor in Provincetown
harbor, the first six words being In
the name of God, Amen This phrase
laid the foundation stones of our
western civilization. These men
brought but little with them, but left
much to posterity. If this were the
only thing they left us, the American
Thanksgiving day, their names would
be immortalized. 1t gives joy to the
kumblest of peoples. On the follow
ing autumn there was held a 'grande
thanksgiving The most condensed ac-
count of this 'grande thanksgiving can
be found in a letter written by Ed
ward Winslow, sent to a friend in
England, as follows: Our harvest be-
ing gotten in, our governor sent out
four men on fowling, so that we might
after a special manner rejoice togeth-
er, after we had gathered the fruits of
our labors. They killed as much fowl
as with a little help beside served the
company about one week. At which
times among other recreatiOns we ex-
ercised our army, many of the Indians
coming amongst us, and among the
rest of their greatest king, Massasoit,
with some 80 men, whom for three
days we entertained and feasted and
they went out and killed five deer,
which they brought and bestowed on
our governor and upon the captain
and Others

Not Essentially American.

Our American Thanksgiving is usual
ly considered our one native contribu-
ton to the holidays Of nations, as it's
observance originated with the New
England fathers. Perhaps the fathers
themselves liked to think of it in this
originative way and SO wished it per-
petuated-as something that had flow
cred on the bleak rock of their per-
sonal struggle. 1t was to be peculiarly
their day, peculiarly heroic New Eng
land day, an American day. SO in a
sense it is; so in a sense it is not.
Many other nations have had such
days of thankfuness.

Many Causes for Gratitude.

We have reason to be grateful for
our abundant harvests, which suffice
to feed us at home and empower us
to give substantial aid to the starving
war-wasted peoples abroad; to be hum
bly, thankful for the wealth that en-
\ ables us to succOr those who have lost
ALL that is so precious in our own eyes.
in gratitude for our manifold national
and personal blessings we all have oc-
casion to "bless the Lord, and forget
not ala His benefits"

Our rural ancestors, with little blest,
Patient of LABOR when the end was rest,
1ndulg'd the day that housd their annual
grain,
With feasts and offerings and a thankful
strain. Pope.
Tie favOrite way of celebrating
Thanksgiving in New England was, of
course, first with prayer and sermon,
in which the minister told his congre-
cation the many things they had to be
thankful for. The church was generally
decorated with fruits and grains, and
when the custom became national this
was continued. The idea of the Thanks
giving dinner in New England was to
have all of the fruits of the harvest,
and turkey became the principal meat
course because this bird was so plenti-
full and was caught in the wild state
and prepared most appetizingly by the
housewives.
Then there was pumpkin pie and as
cranberrieS grew in great quantities in
New England states the sauce of that
berry was a fitting addition to the
turkey course. Plum cake, or, as it has
come to be known, fruit cake, was a
favorite for the Christmas holidays in
England and was brought over with
other dainties by the first of the set
tiers, and the recipes for making treas
ured by the housewives.
Meat pies, or, as we call them, mince
pies, came later in the list of good
things for Thanksgiving.
With the very earliest settlers the
day was, indeed, day of prayer, and
little else besides, but later it became
a feast day, as well, and it was poor
family, indeed, in New England that
could not afford a turkey for Thanks
giving dinner.
