lHE SPIRIT Of
THANKSGIVING

For many years and in many ma
tions, one day is set apart each year
as a harvest festival. At this festival
the peoples feeling of gratitude to
Almighty God for his bounteous good
ness has been expressed in various
forms. In america it is called
Thanksgiving day but even previous to
the first Thanksgiving proclamation
by the Grand Chieftain of the United
states 1t was the custom of American
Indians to celebrate the harvest time
with dances, sports and religious rites.
AS the years have gone by boys have
assumed larger and larger part in
the Thanksgiving festivities. In addi-
tion to the prayer meetings and relig-
ious formalities of the day, school and
college boys have made it custom to
stage great exhibitions of athletic
prowess. True American spirit has
been shown in the distribution of pro-
visions tp the poor. inviting strangers
and neighbors out to Thanksgiving
dinners. The advent of Scouting has
extended to the boys of the nation a
definite outlet thru which they are eX
pressing their gratitude thru special
Thanksgiving good turns. The Ameri-
can people can this year be truly
thankful for the high ideals and pur-
poses of the nations boyhood as ex-
pressed in the Scout movement. Indi-
vidual and troop good turns showing
Initiative on the part of the boys in
many communities have impressed the
friends of the movement with the fact
that it is we'll to recognize the ele-
ments which constitute in our boys
own minds a really complete Thanks
giving day.
No longer does the American public
expect our growing boys to sit COM
placcntly in church or at other relig-
ious services during any large part OF
the day on Thanksgiving. To them 1t
really Is festival and a holiday a
time for great rejoicing. They express
1t not so much in words as thru smil-
ing countcnances and the spirit of
Willingness to do. and in n joyful
cNuberance in all activities. which
pring INTO play every muscle and
healthy impulse of boy nature.
Boy Scouts attend services. to be
sure. but they arc there to express
themselves in acts of reverence.
Scouts will open and close heavy
swinging doors. assist the aged and
children up and down the church
steps. participate In the Thanksgiv-
ing services and even carry the min
isters message OF thankfulness to shut
IN people who are unable to attend.
During the day there will perhaps he
athletic events in which the boys will
participate. But after all, the Thanks
giving dinner at home is the most
prominent feature in every boys imag
ination and in that particular activity
there viii be no limit to his en-
thnsiasm except that set by the food
administrator and the elasticity of his
skin. There are good many acts of
courtesy thru which he will find n
means OF bringing the spirit of
Thanksgiving into many n sad and
lonely home. There will he errands to
be run and in some cases baskets to
be delivered or flowers to be carried
to tho bedside of those who are sick,
There are many more ways by which
the Boy Scouts can help add to the
spirit of the day.

The gate-leg sewing basket
sketched below is composed of a
simple wooden frame which
swings on a pivot in the center,
and which may be folded fat. The
top part is Chinese sewing
basket which may be bought
wherever Oriental goods are sold
Select a basket IA inches deep
and 1871 inches across. The di-
mensions given below for the
frame were worked out for
basket of these measurements.
To make the frame you will
need the following materials:
Four pieces of lumber for the up
right posts each rs inches long
and one inch square, four pieces
of lumber forN the cross pieces
each IA inches long and one inch
square. two short pieces inches
long and one inch square. eight
screws two inches long. two screw
bolts three inches long and each
fitted with = head at one end and
y nut at the other. Have the
lumber cut the proper lengths at
the mill whore it is purchased.
Figs. l and 2 show how the
<pisces OF lumber are put together
to form the two parts which make
up the frame. The rs inch posts
are the upright pieces and the
IA inch pieces are the cross pieces.
Lay the pieces which form Fig.
in position on the door 50 that
they At together just as in Fig. L.
The lower cross bar is placed Eve
inches from the bottom edge of
the posts. The top cross piece is
placed inches from the top OF
the posts, this leaves 4 space OF
10 inches between the two cross
pieces as shown in Fig. ]. Lay
out Fig. 2 in the same manner.
In Fig. 2 the lower cross piece is
six inches from the bottom edge
OF the posts, and the top cross
piece is 10k inches from the tor
OF the posts. This leaves 4 space
between the two cross pieces OF
TX inches as shown in Fig. 2.
Saw OF one end OF the three inch
piece OF lumber at slant. and put
them in place at the top OF the
top cross piece in Fig. 2. Screw
