 Under plans made before de- parture of the plane. Ernest Koep- pen, mechanic. will immediately set to work to repair the Bremen, whose pilots Baron von Huenefcld. Captain Hermann Koehl and Titzmaurice landed on Grecnly Island more than q week ago.
 Whether the Junkers mechanic can make the Bremen ready for takeoff tomorrow morning, as orig inally planned. was a matter of spec ulation. When Reopen left Lake St. Agnes he believed he could get the Bremen in shipshape again with. in q very short time.
 Hence. it was felt here that the Ford plane 'sdelay in Seven Islands overnight last night probably had eventual getaway of the Bremen. If these theories hold true. the Bre- men would be in Lake St. Agnes to- morrow afternoon, and be ready to continue on to New York Wcdnes- day morning.

ADVICE TO
LOVELORN

wholesome Friendships

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
We are three girls. All OF us
are 16 years of age, hut we are not
allowed to speak to any boys. Now
and then we go out and meet fell
lows. We know. they are nice, for
they all have very good reputa-
tions. We would like to have them
call on us at our homes. is there
any way you can advise us to
bring this change about?
We will be very thankful to you.
THE LOVE-SIEK THREE
Have an affectionate talk with
your parents and ask whether you
may not invite your friends-h hoth
girls and boys-to your home now
and then. Tell your parents you
would love to have them meet boys
you know and like and judge
whether they are not suitable as
friends and companions for you.
/ Girls OF 16 naturally long for and
enjoy the companionship of young
folks of their own age And it is
so much nicer to meet these
friends in your own home, under
the protection of your parents,
than outside.
Keep your friendship wholesome.
If you act syrupy and sentimental
and love-sick. do not wonder that
your parents object to your assoc
ciating with boys.

Thanksgiving Day is coming!
Thanksgiving Day-when we give
thanks for the bountiful harvest;
the earth's food supply.
A day of home gatherings
bringing of the family together.
And the family spirit Of the home
table will never change SO long
as the home endures-and that
will be always, in spite of some
pessimistic individuals who de-
clare the home is passing.
There are two foods in the
Thanksgiving dinner that must of
necessity stand out-TURKEY
and CRANBERRIES. They have
been boon companions and
travelled together many a year.
There is a reason for this-the
companionship is traditional; and
then too, the cranberry adds just
the acid necessary to aid in the
digestion Of a heavy dinner, and
their cherry brightness is GER
tainly decorative.
But how did turkey and cram
berries begin their close com
panionship? It seems that the
early Pilgrims found this bright
red berry on the Cape Cod PENN.
sula, growing wild on the low
marshes, and it is probable that
the Pilgrim housewife served
them with the wild turkey at
Thanksgiving time. Anyway, it
may be that this is how the cram
berry became so closely asso-
ciated with Thanksgiving.
But even supposing turkey can
not be had for the Thanksgiving
feast, surely cranberries can. In
deed, many a Thanksgiving din
ner is festive enough without
turkey-but without cranberries,
never!
Here, then, is the picture for
your Thanksgiving table:
