Because the president issues a pro- clamation appointing a day of Thanks- giving each fall, we are apt to re- gard this holiday as peculiarly an American institution. . Thanksgiving Day is, however, only our modern version of a very ancient festival, one observed in almo:t ev- ery corner of the globe. And we feast on much the same foods our an- cestors considered choice—so far as the food profiteers will let us. The Thanksgiving proclamation ap- pears in several places in the Bible. In Leviticus there is the command, “When ye shall have gathered the fruit of the land, ye shall keep a feast unto the Lord.” The Greeks honored Cercs, the god, dess of agriculture. Her sym3ol? were poppies, ears corn, a basket of fruit ,and a little pig. F: pt for the poppies, the market dasket of the ancient Greek goddess might be de- livered to many modern kitchens just before Thanksgiving. The turkey is Am distinctive contribution to the harvest home fes- tival. Plymouth housekeepe: must have roasted a score of the wild birds to satisfy the hungry hunters at that THANKSGIVING 1S) RODERN VERSION OF T FESTIVAL three-day feast in October, 1621. They had also to prepare great slices of white cod, with quantities of shell- fish, and_ venison contributed by the Indians who came as the governor's guests. And they doile’ vegetables, und baked loaves of barley flour and cakes of corn meal. | For dessert there were nuts and wild honey and per- haps some wild fruit, Thanksgiving’ Day is also the vint- age festival in many lands. Grape juice, preferably the home made | kind, is the modern equivalent for the product of the vinepress. ; To have a poetical significance, the Thauksgiving menu today should be arranged with reference to ancient bills of-fare. Today we are’ sav- ing our turkeys for our Sammies but we can make our feast classical, that is typical of the olden time, by using the other foods. And strangely enough, the cheap wartime foods are almost exactly the same as the foods with wich the Pil- grims celedrated their release from the fear of famine. | The Pilgrim mothers, however, were saved one big worry. They did not have a fuel famine to bother them, even if they did have to cook the first Thanksgiving dinner, out of doors.

For-our soldiers transports convoyed ship.” A “mother ship,” is the latest de- vice of American inventive genius :9 beat the German submarine. It is the product of John L. Bozert, New York consulting engineer, aml is taken seriously by all scientific jour: nals and marine experts. The “mother ship” is designed to sea protector of transport vessels, although she herself would carry. both freight and human car- goes. The mother ship would convoy fleets of transports. Four 5-inch calibre guns would be may go over i by a “mother who are going “ov-ja U-boat is sighted. to fight) boat doesn’t have to wait until the for the honor and in- get Guard Boys Going to France boys | mounted on her deck, for use in case But the mother submarine comes near, for the mothe: ship's deck is a landing plaiform fov bombing aeroplanes, which will company the fleet, flying out fron watch for the undersea enemy. The inventor claims that his boa’ is practically unsinkable. A systeu of bulkheads makes it so, he as- serts. | The soldiers, going across to fight | for their country, in a transport con- voyed by a mother ship would have their own vessel protected by the gunners and aerial scouts and bom9- ers on board the mother ship, and if their boat should be torpedoe there ; would be the mothcr ship near by to pick them up. The Scientific American points out that the Bogert mother ship incor porates the three measures of defense j and attack necessary to beat the U- doats. ‘First there are the guns on the moiher ship; secondly, the mak- ing such vessels unsinkable in so far as possible; and thirdly, the use of airplane scouters and bombers at sea Woodman Meeting.—The Woodmen camp 4164 will meet Friday evening in the Knights of Pythias hall.
