After the Thanksgiving Dinner

UNIT SARA had prepared twen-
 sy-six large white cards, each
 with a letter of the alphabet - printed on it In black ink, and when the call went around for games on Thanksgiving afternoon. she brought them forward. Fortunately there were twenty young folks in the party and Aunt Sara herself as- sumed leadership. She pinned a card to each child's dress or coat and then stood them in line at one end of the room. Quickly she spoke some word that had to do with the day or some event in the day and as quickly as she spoke the alphabet children had to step forward and arrange themselves in the right order This takes quick thinking. for if any letter fails to hop into place an amusing forfeit is claimed by the leader.
 Then the children gathered quietly around in circle on the floor, and Aunt Sara suggested that they play Suggestions. The first player says any word that comes into his mind, for instance Delicious-thinking of the food just consumed. The next player then immediately speaks the word

He was turning home at last when a light shower came up and he took shelter under a hugo overhanging rock on tho out skirts of field that he had not yet crossed.
 As he sat waiting for the rain to stop he was startled by the distant "kling" of small bell. 4He peered out from his shelter but could see nothing. Once or twice moro he heard it and 1t seemed to be getting nearer. He concluded that 1t was the bell on stray sheep or COW and he watched to sec if the animal would come his way.
 Suddenly the "kling" sounded al- most above his head and much louder and a second later huge bird sailed

 Did you ever play Cake Gamep That was the next on the program that afternoon. Each player received pencil and sheet of paper and ne the questions were read by Aunt Sara. the players wrote the answer which they thought to be correct.

 What kind of cake would you make for

 A dog catcher? Pound cake

A TURKEYS THANKSGIVING

YY a HEN Robert Baldwin went down to his uncle's farm in NE Kentucky for a two weeks WY vacation. including Thanks giving Day, fl was the first time he had ever been in the South.
 But he found that he liked it at his Uncle Marks place very much Uncle Mark had large farm with many Negro laborers to work it. Robert had great fun wandering all over the place getting acquainted with the workers and the animals--the cows. pigs. horses, chickens and last but not least. Old Tom.
 Old Tom occupied proud position though he did not know it. and would have been alarmed if he had. He was & huge turkey -cock--the only one on the place-and he was destined to grace tho Thanksgiving dinner table. Robert took a great interest in the big turkey. which was called Old Tom more because he was so large than because he was old, and finally the boy grew 6 little sorry that Old Tom was going to be eaten that Thanks giving.
 
 day, T believe you'd rather see Old Tom running around than lying all nice and brown on a platter and hold ing up a drumstick for you"
 Guess I would" admitted Robert a little shamefacedly. He's a pretty friendly old bird. See how he eats out of my hand!"
 It did seem as if Old Tom had struck up Q special friendship with the boy. He would run gobbling after Robert every time he saw him and would permit Robert to handle him with a freedom that he would allow to no one else. Naturally Robert didn't quito like the idea of eating his feathered friend.
 Then two days before Thanksgiving 1t looked as if he wouldn't get the chance to try one of Old Tom's drumsticks. The. big turkey disap- peared and could not be found any, where around the farmyard.
 Sure you didn't take that turkey of and hide him somewhere, Rob 2" asked Uncle Mark, quizzically.
 ''No I didn't. Uncle. honest I didn't" protested the boy.
 T was only Joking. Rob. I don't believe anybody stole him, either. No one would have the nerve to take the only turkey on the place. l think Old Tom must have wandered off and got caught. Suppose you take turn up towards Gilboa and see if you can find any trace of him.
 "All right" said Robert readily. "I'll take along my gun, too Maybe I can shoot a Thanksgiving dinner"
 Maybe" said his uncle with smile. He didn't have much faith in Robert as hunter. but tho boy was really a good shot.
 "Perhaps I can get aswild turkey" thought Robert to himself as he start- ed out towards Mount Gilboa-
 He spent a long time ranging
The Birmingham age-herald., 1922-11-26


 Rob" he said. I've, got a notion. Where did you shoot that buzzard 2" Robert told him.
 Did you see any other animal in that field?"
 No. but I didn't look. I came right home after I shot it without crossing the meadow"
 Let's go up and have a look around" said Uncle Mark. AS they neared the field he said: There's a brook runs through here. Let's fol- low it''
 The brook was sunken three or four feet below the surface of the meadow. As they walked along the bank Robert spied another large bird at the waters edge ahead of them. Look" he cried. Why. it's Old Tom"
 Just as I thought" said Uncle Mark, hurrying towards the turkey.
 See, he's caught in some boys trap. He's pretty near used up but don't think he's badly hurt. That buzzard saw him and came down on the chance of getting a turkey din- ner. He thought Old Tom was dead 7" Ropert 1elt tWlnge or apprehen- sion. "You--you won't kill Old Tom now, will you?" he asked.
 Uncle Mark laughed gently. NO Robert" he said. You and Old Tom have rid the country of a pest. and guess between you you've earned the right to Old Toms life"
 So far from gracing the Thanks giving dinner table two days later Old Tom had a generous plateful from that table carried out to him by Robert and he gratefully gobbled his thanks for it.

reached the bird it was dead.
 That's a funny looking turkey" " thought the boy as he surveyed the creature. And what's 1t got the bell around its neck for?"
 In the end he decided to take his turkey" home and see what his uncle thought of it. He did not dream that he would excite the in- terest that he did.
 "Turkey!" exclaimed Uncle Mark. Great Scott, boy. that isn't a turkey. It's a buzzard-though 1t looks enough like q turkey to be called the turkey buzzard. It isn't fit to eat. But do you know what you've done, boy? You've killed belled buzzard"
 "A belled buzzard?" said Robert. wonderingly.
 "Yes. You see. every once In a while somebody catches a young bug gard and ties a bell to its neck and then lets it go. It's very foolish thing to do because the Negroes and other superstitious people are scared to death of belled buzzard. Whenever they hear that bell way up in the air they think 1t means bad luck and it's hard to get any work out of them for a while after a belled buzzard has
