For that matter, how many ever knew the true significance of this delightful custom? The father of the day, pious old Governor Bradford, thought it would be a great thing if the folks of Ply- mouth colony should eat together when the frost was on the pumpkin and the fodder was in the shock. ‘Not being a vegetarian, and Chicago dressed beef not yet having come into vogue, he commanded the colony’s Valiant sons to go into the forests and shoot a sufficient mess of venison and wild turkey. , Next arose the problem of a common eating place. But that solved itself, for colonial Massachusetts had but one common place of adequate community assembly, the out-of-doors. So, the wild turkeys, duly stuffed and baked, and the venison, were taken, with fitting accompaniments, | THE END OF A THANKSGIVING DINNER BY aoLLy, 1 BeLIer | 1 ATE TOO MUCH, Too! 1 FEE’ LIKE TM GOING To DIE, HE FIRST THANKSGIVING DAY under the trees and joyously dispatched at a feast for all, including Chief Massasoit and 90 friendly Indians So well did they enjoy the common feast that they kept it up for three days, consuming, also, we fear, quite a quantity of strong waters. It was not, therefore, as with us, primarily a family but a community function; the nearest that the pious pilgrims could come to a democratic festival, When we modify it to a service in a sectarian church and a spread around a family board, we reduce the fine old function to less than its original intent The family dinner and the church service have grown into traditions too well rooted to be upset, even if there were any anxious to upset them. They give a useful and intimate spiritual touch. : But lately, in a few places, there has come into usage an added celebration more in keeping with the founder's intent ese nccentmeoneaniinaantni THE SEATTLE STAR NEWSPAPERS | MEMBER OF SCRIPPS NORTHWEST LEAGUE OF ‘Telegraph News Service of the United Press Association Entered at Seattle, Wash., Postoffice as Second-Class Matter.

A new offender, strange to the ways| of the town, was brought up on a charge of running a gam-| bling room. | The police magistrate, who assumed all the courtly judi- cial airs of a supreme justice, straightened himself up and} looked searchingly at the accused. | “Guilty or not guilty?” he demanded. “I am guilty, Judge,” said the accused The old judge brought his fist down on the desk with a ; resounding hae 4 “It'll take better evidence than that. It'll take better evidence than that. Proceed with the trial.” And the fellow learned a half hour later, by decision of court, that he was not guilty.

It would be the bravest, ugliest, fight- ingest army on earth. Most any wife with a weed-using hus- band will tell that editor fellow that depriving man of his tobacco for a day makes him courageous enough to tackle any- thing wearing hide, hair, horns or hoofs. She will hold up her right hand and swear that said tobaccoless man is the| crossest, most irritable, irascible, unreasonable, provoking, reckless, unlovable, brutal and unanimou ornery creature| that goes on two legs. He will laugh at a 48-centimeter, cuss| at a dirigible and twiddle his thumb on his nose at death.

He | hates all creation, from the stars up above down to the very appendix of Mother Earth. He'd cheerfully bring on chaos, caly there’s no cheer in him and chaos isn’t big enough to satisfy his kick. ; Lost?

ONE WHO WAS THERE. ERIA Editor The Star: The other night I attended a photodrama at the Liberty theatre, in which life in the Siberian prison was shown. Tam a son of Russian people, and for me it was flattering to hear ap- plause of American people, who seemed to rejoice in the death of the tyrant, killed by a bomb. The subject of the drama was wonderful, but the brandishing of |the whip by the guards was far | from reality. The prison guards are sons of the people, anyhow, and they are not cruel, as was depicted in the picture. I hope that the managenient of the theatre will be more careful the next time such a picture is ex- hibited, V. KORESHKOV.

I finally ob-| tained from a drug store the fol | lowing recipe, which is perfectly harmless and has no color, taste or smell and costs very little. To 8 oun of water add 20 grains of muriate of ammonia, a small box of Varlex Compound and 10 grains of pepsin. I gave a teaspoonful to him three times a day secretly in his coffee or food.

The initial call was read before the Central Labor Council Wednesday night. Delegates will be selected by the Seattle council next week. A STAR WANT AD will go into over 45,000 homes every night it runs. Seattle Has Cheap Gas PRICES WITHIN REACH OF ALL T HE best evidence of the cheapness of gas in Seattle, and of the excellence of the service rendered, is the fact that some 45,000 homes are using gas economically and satisfactorily today, and that the business is gradually expanding in spite of the strong comnetition of other cheap fuel and light. Further than this, however, the rates charged, ranging from $1.00 downward to 60 cents per thou- sand cubic feet, in varying quantities, are very low when the conditions of cost and character of service are considered. These prices place gas easily within reach of every family in this city. They were put into effect originally to induce a larger use of this modern, clean and economical fuel, and are as low as can be made and permit the company to operate on a decent business basis and keep up the quality of its service. The consumer who investigates will find that there is scarcely a single commodity necessary to ial gas and that his monthly bill for this service is among the smallest items of his current expense. his welfare and ccmfort as cheap as artif SEATTLE LIGHTING COMPANY PHONE: MAIN 6767, ea tue mnm
